SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: 2009 Business Relocation 

Assistance Retrospective Study. 

Background: Among benefits 

included in relocation assistance under 

the Uniform Act is a payment, not to 

exceed $10,000, to assist displaced 

businesses in reestablishing at a new 

location. The Uniform Act also includes 

a fixed payment for moving expenses 

not to exceed $20,000 in lieu of the 

payments for actual reasonable moving 

and reestablishment related expenses. 

The Uniform Act benefit levels were last 

revised in 1989. Since that time, 

displaced business moves have become 

increasingly complex and costly. HEPR, 

the General Accounting Office (GAO) 

and several States have done recent 

research into the costs born by 

businesses that are required to relocate 

as a result of federally funded projects 

and programs. The general conclusion is 

that the Uniform Act benefit levels are 

inadequate. For example the GAO 

recently reported on the need for an 

update of benefit levels in Eminent 

Domain, Information about its Uses and 

Effect on Communities and Property 

Owners Is Limited (GAO–07–28). The 

report communicates in several points, 

including discussions on pages 4 and 

16, that Uniform Act benefits available 

to business are considered inadequate 

by interviewees. 

The data collected utilizing the 

following interview document would 

identify the name, location and type of 

business; actual costs that a business 

incurs which would be reimbursable if 

not for the statutory maximum 

reestablishment expenses or the 

additional in-lieu eligibility that a 

business would be eligible to receive as 

well as the amount of the relocation 

assistance the business received as a 

reimbursement through the relocation 

program. Interviews with selected 

participants will be conducted over a 

one year period. 

Respondents: Approximately 300 

participants to be interviewed in a one 

year. 

Frequency: One collection from each 

participant. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: Approximately 4 hours per 

participant over a year. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: Approximately 1200 hours. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: (1) 

Whether the proposed collection is 

necessary for the FHWA’s performance; 

(2) the accuracy of the estimated 

burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to 

enhance the quality, usefulness, and 

clarity of the collected information; and 

(4) ways that the burden could be 

minimized, including the use of 

electronic technology, without reducing 

the quality of the collected information. 

The agency will summarize and/or 

include your comments in the request 

for OMB’s clearance of this information 

collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Federal-Aid Highway 

Construction Equal Employment 

Opportunity. 

Background: Title 23, part 140(a), 

requires the FHWA to ensure equal 

opportunity regarding contractors’ 

employment practices on Federal-aid 

highway projects. To carry out this 

requirement, the contractors must 

submit to the State Transportation 

Agencies (STAs) on all work being 

performed on Federal-aid contracts 

during the month of July, a report on its 

employment workforce data. This report 

provides the employment workforce 

data on these contracts and includes the 

number of minorities, women, and nonminorities in specific highway 

construction job categories. This 

information is reported on Form PR– 

1391, Federal-Aid Highway 

Construction Contractors Summary of 

Employment Data. The statute also 

requires the STAs to submit a report to 

the FHWA summarizing the data 

entered on the PR–1391 forms. This 

summary data is provided on Form PR– 

1392, Federal-Aid Highway 

Construction Contractors Summary of 

Employment Data. The STAs and 

FHWA use this data to identify patterns 

and trends of employment in the 

highway construction industry, and to 

determine the adequacy and impact of 

the STA’s and FHWA’s contract 

compliance and on-the-job (OJT) 

training programs. The STAs use this 

information to monitor the contractorsemployment and training of minorities 

and women in the traditional highway 

construction crafts. Additionally, the 

data is used by FHWA to provide 

summarization, trend analyses to 

Congress, DOT, and FHWA officials as 

well as others who request information 

relating to the Federal-aid highway 

construction EEO program. The 

information is also used in making 

decisions regarding resource allocation; 

program emphasis; marketing and 

promotion activities; training; and 

compliance efforts. 

Respondents: 11,077 annual 

respondents for Form PR–1391, and 52 

STAs annual respondents for Form PR– 

1392, total of 11,129. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: FHWA estimates it takes 30 

minutes for Federal-aid contractors to 

complete and submit Form PR–1391 

and 8 hours for STAs to complete and 

submit Form PR–1392. 

Estimated Total Amount Burden 

Hours: Form PR–1391—5,539 hours per 

year; Form PR–1392—416 hours per 

year, total of 5,955 hours annually. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: (1) 

Whether the proposed collection is 

necessary for the FHWA’s performance; 

(2) the accuracy of the estimated 

burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to 

enhance the quality, usefulness, and 

clarity of the collected information; and 

(4) ways that the burden could be 

minimized, including the use of 

electronic technology, without reducing
