AGENCY: Office of the Secretary of 

Transportation (OST). 

SUMMARY: The Department of 

Transportation (DOT) invites public 

comments on a request to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) to 

renew an Information Collection 

Request in accordance with the 

requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 

44 USC 3501 et seq). 

On July 6, 2012, the President of the 

United States signed the Moving Ahead 

for Progress in the 21st Century Act of 

2012 (MAP–21). MAP–21 authorized 

$750 million in FY 2013 and $1 billion 

in FY 2014 for the Transportation 

Infrastructure Financing and Innovation 

Act (TIFIA) program to pay the subsidy 

cost of supporting Federal credit. The 

TIFIA program will provide Federal 

credit assistance in the form of direct 

loans, loan guarantees, and standby 

lines of credit to eligible surface 

transportation projects. This 

information collection relates to the 

collection of information from entities 

interested in TIFIA credit assistance and 

assists DOT in evaluating projects and 

project sponsors for program eligibility 

and creditworthiness. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

submitted by November 23, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: Comments are invited on: 

(a) The need for the proposed collection 

of information for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(b) The accuracy of the agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

Ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques. You may submit 

comments identified by Docket No. 

DOT–OST–2013–0173 through one of 

the following methods: 

• Federal eRulemaking Portal: http:// 

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Transportation Infrastructure 

Financing and Innovation Act program 

or TIFIA program. 

OMB Control Number: 2105–0569. 

Affected Public: State and local 

governments, transit agencies, railroad 

companies, special authorities, special 

districts, and private entities. 

Estimated Total Annual Number of 

Responses: 50 letters of interest and 50 

applications. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 6,000 hours. Based on the 

number and type of interested 

stakeholders that have contacted the 

Department about this program, OST 

estimates that it will receive 50 

applications and letters of interest and 

that it will generally not take applicants 

more than 100 person-hours to assemble 

individual applications and 20 personhours to assemble individual letters of 

interest. Therefore, the total annual hour 

burden of this collection of applications 

is 6,000 hours. 

Frequency of Collection: The 

Department expects that this 

information collection will occur on a 

rolling basis as interested entities seek 

TIFIA credit assistance. 

Background: This is an existing 

information collection that was 

originally approved through the 

emergency approval process on August 

7, 2013. DOT has published a notice in 

the Federal Register (also available at: 

http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/pdfs/tifia/ 

fy2013_tifia_nofa_073112.pdf) to give 

project sponsors an opportunity to 

submit Letters of Interest and 

applications for the newly authorized 

funding as soon as possible. However, 

in addition to authorizing more funding 

for TIFIA credit assistance, MAP–21 

made some significant changes to the 

TIFIA program’s structure, including the 

terms and conditions pursuant to which
