SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD 

[Docket No. EP 552 (Sub-No. 27)] 

Railroad Revenue Adequacy—2022 

Determination 

AGENCY: Surface Transportation Board. 

ACTION: Notice of decision. 

SUMMARY: On September 5, 2023, the 

Board served a decision announcing the 

2022 revenue adequacy determinations 

for the nation’s Class I railroads. Five 

Class I railroads (BNSF Railway 

Company, CSX Transportation, Inc., 

Norfolk Southern Combined Railroad 

Subsidiaries, Soo Line Corporation, and 

Union Pacific Railroad Company) were 

found to be revenue adequate. 

DATES: This decision is effective on 

September 5, 2023. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Pedro Ramirez, (202) 245–0333. If you 

require an accommodation under the 

Americans with Disabilities Act, please 

call (202) 245–0245. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under 49 

U.S.C. 10704(a)(3), the Board is required 

to make an annual determination of 

railroad revenue adequacy. A railroad is 

considered revenue adequate under 49 

U.S.C. 10704(a) if it achieves a rate of 

return on net investment (ROI) equal to 

at least the current cost of capital for the 

railroad industry. For 2022, this number 

was determined to be 10.58% in 

Railroad Cost of Capital—2022, EP 558 

(Sub-No. 26) (STB served Aug. 3, 2023). 

The Board then applied this revenue 

adequacy standard to each Class I 

railroad. Five Class I carriers (BNSF 

Railway Company, CSX Transportation, 

Inc., Norfolk Southern Combined 

Railroad Subsidiaries, Soo Line 

Corporation, and Union Pacific Railroad 

Company) were found to be revenue 

adequate for 2022. 

The decision in this proceeding is 

posted at www.stb.gov. 

Decided: August 30, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Planning and Research Program 

Administration. 

Background: Planning and Research 

Program Administration is covered 

under 23 CFR part 420. 23 CFR part 420 

regulation includes administrative 

requirements and procedures for PL 

funds (23 U.S.C. 104(b)(5)) provided for 

Metropolitan Planning Organizations 

(MPOs) to carry out metropolitan 

planning, and SPR funds (provided 

under the provisions of 23 U.S.C. 505) 

for State Departments of Transportation 

(State DOTs) to implement statewide 

transportation planning and research, 

development and technology (RD&T) 

work activities. Also, at a State DOT’s 

option, other Title 23 funds as identified 

in the definition of FHWA planning and 

research funds in 23 U.S.C. 505 and 23 

CFR 420.103 may be used to perform 

planning activities. Different from this 

request, the information collection 

requirement for work performed by 

MPOs is a joint Federal Highway 

Administration/Federal Transit 

Administration requirement, and is 

covered under OMB Control Number 

2132–0529. 

In accordance with government-wide 

grant management procedures, a grant 

application must be submitted for these 

funds. In addition, recipients must 

submit periodic progress and financial 

reports. The content and frequency of 

submission of progress and financial 

reports specified in 23 CFR part 420 is 

as specified in 2 CFR 200 grant 

management regulations. With the 

implementation of 2 CFR 200, the focus 

will be more on using data to determine 

the grant’s achievement outcomes and 

less on accountability compliance. 

FHWA and the State DOTs are called 

upon to identify clear performance 

goals, indicators and milestones for the 

grants. 

This information collection supports 

the DOT’s Strategic Objective of 

‘‘Organizational Excellence’’ by 

providing an ongoing mechanism to 

review applications and approve 

Federal grants to States for their 

transportation planning and research, 

development and technology work 

programs. 

Respondents: Each State, the District 

of Columbia and the Commonwealth of 

Puerto Rico are required to provide 

information. The annual number of 

burden hours (professional and clerical 

staff) per respondent for preparation of 

work programs and progress and 

financial reports is estimated to be 720 

(18 weeks × 40 hours per week). The 

total annual burden for all respondents 

is estimated to be 37,440 burden hours 

(720 burden hours per respondent times 

52 respondents). 

Frequency: This annual burden 

consists of staff time of each respondent 

for preparation of the work programs, 

and progress and financial reports. For 

those respondents that elect to use 

biennial work programs, the burden for 

preparation of work programs would be 

significantly less for the second year. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: 

Professional staff time for preparation 

of work programs: 400 hours/ 

respondent. 

Professional staff time for preparation 

of progress and financial reports: 120 

hours/respondent. 

Clerical staff time: 200 hours/ 

respondent. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 720 hours/respondent × 52 

respondents = 37,400 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. 

Authority: The Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as 

amended; and 49 CFR 1.48. 

Issued on: August 31, 2023.
