Type of Review: Renewal of an 

information collection. 

Background: Codification of Certain 

U.S. Transportation Laws at 49 U.S.C. 

(Pub. L. 103–272), which is referred to

airport planning and development 

projects at airports included in the 

National Plan of Integrated Airport 

Systems. The Act also authorizes funds 

for noise compatibility planning and to 

carry out noise compatibility programs. 

The information required by this 

program is necessary to protect the 

Federal interest in safety, efficiency, and 

utility of the Airport. Data is collected 

to meet report requirements of 49 CFR 

part 18 for financial management and 

performance monitoring. Information is 

collected in the application, and grant 

agreement amendments; financial 

management; and performance 

reporting. 

Respondents: Approximately 1,950 

sponsors and planning agencies for 

grant projects. 

Frequency: Information is collected 

on occasion. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: 6.75 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 

80,569 hours. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA 

at the following address: Ms. Kathy 

DePaepe, Room 126B, Federal Aviation 

Administration, AES–200, 6500 S. 

MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma City, OK

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including (a) 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for FAA’s 

performance; (b) the accuracy of the 

estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to 

enhance the quality, utility and clarity 

of the information collection; and (d) 

ways that the burden could be 

minimized 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.

BILLING CODE P 

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Highway Administration 

Annual Materials Report on New 

Bridge Construction and Bridge 

Rehabilitation 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Section 1114 of the Safe, 

Accountable, Flexible, Efficient 

Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for 

Users (SAFETEA–LU) (Pub. L. 109–59; 

119 Stat. 1144) continued the highway 

bridge program to enable States to 

improve the condition of their highway 

bridges over waterways, other 

topographical barriers, other highways, 

and railroads. Section 1114(f) amended 

23 United State Code (U.S.C.) 144 by 

adding subsection (r), requiring the 

Secretary of Transportation to publish 

in the Federal Register a report 

describing construction materials used 

in new Federal-aid bridge construction 

and bridge rehabilitation projects. As 

part of the SAFETEA–LU Technical 

Corrections Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 110– 

244), 23 U.S.C. 144 subsection (r) 

became subsection (q), but the reporting 

requirement remained the same. 

ADDRESSES: The report is posted on the 

FHWA Web site at: http://

www.fhwa.dot.gov/bridge/brdgtabs.cfm. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Ann Shemaka, Office of Bridge 

Technology, (202) 366–1575, or via 

email at ann.shemaka@dot.gov or Mr. 

Thomas Everett, Office of Bridge 

Technology, (202) 366–4675, or via 

email at thomas.everett@dot.gov, or for 

legal questions, Robert Black, (202) 366– 

1359, or via email at 

robert.black@dot.gov, Federal Highway 

Administration, 1200 New Jersey Ave. 

SE., Washington, DC 20590. Office 

hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., 

e.t., Monday through Friday, except 

Federal holidays. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

conformance with 23 U.S.C. 144(q), 

FHWA has produced a report that 

summarizes the types of construction 

materials used in new bridge 

construction and bridge rehabilitation 

projects. Data on Federal-aid and nonFederal-aid highway bridges are 

included in the report for completeness. 

The December 2009 National Bridge 

Inventory (NBI) dataset was used to 

identify the material types for bridges 

that were new or replaced within the 

defined time period. The FHWA’s 

Financial Management Information 

System and the 2011 NBI were used to 

identify the material types for bridges 

that were rehabilitated within the 

defined time period. Currently 

preventative maintenance projects are 

included in the rehabilitation totals. 

The report, which is available at 

http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/bridge/ 

brdgtabs.cfm, consists of the following 

tables: 

• Construction Materials for New and 

Replaced Bridges, a summary report 

which includes Federal-aid highways 

and non-Federal-aid highways built in 

2010 and 2009. 

• Construction Materials for 

Rehabilitated Bridges, a summary report 

which includes Federal-aid and nonFederal-aid highways rehabilitated in 

2010 and 2009. 

• Construction Materials for 

Combined New, Replaced and 

Rehabilitated Bridges, a summary report 

which combines the first two tables 

cited above. 

• Federal-aid Highways: Construction 

Materials for New and Replaced Bridges 

2010, a detailed State-by-State report 

with counts and areas for Federal-aid 

bridges built or replaced in 2010. 

• Federal-aid Highways: Construction 

Materials for New and Replaced Bridges 

2009, a detailed State-by-State report 

with counts and areas for Federal-aid 

bridges built or replaced in 2009. 

• Non-Federal-aid Highways: 

Construction Materials for New and 

Replaced Bridges 2010, a detailed Stateby-State report with counts and areas for 

non-Federal-aid bridges built or 

replaced in 2010. 

• Non-Federal-aid Highways: 

Construction Materials for New and 

Replaced Bridges 2009, a detailed Stateby-State report with counts and areas for 

non-Federal-aid bridges built or 

replaced in 2009. 

• Federal-aid Highways: Construction 

Materials for Rehabilitated Bridges 

2010, a detailed State-by-State report 

with counts and areas for Federal-aid 

bridges rehabilitated in 2010. 

• Federal-aid Highways: Construction 

Materials for Rehabilitated Bridges 

2009, a detailed State-by-State report 

with counts and areas for Federal-aid 

bridges rehabilitated in 2009. 

• Non-Federal-aid Highways: 

Construction Materials for Rehabilitated 

Bridges 2010, a detailed State-by-State 

report with counts and areas for nonFederal-aid bridges rehabilitated in 

2010. 

• Non-Federal-aid Highways: 

Construction Materials for Rehabilitated 

Bridges 2009, a detailed State-by-State 

report with counts and areas for nonFederal-aid bridges rehabilitated in 

2009. 

• Federal-aid Highways: Construction 

Materials for New, Replaced and 

Rehabilitated Bridges 2010, which 

combines the 2010 reports on new, 

replaced and rehabilitated Federal-aid 

bridges. 

• Federal-aid Highways: Construction 

Materials for New, Replaced and 

Rehabilitated Bridges 2009, which 

combines the 2009 reports on new, 

replaced and rehabilitated Federal-aid 

bridges. 

• Non-Federal-aid Highways: 

Construction Materials for New, 

Replaced and Rehabilitated Bridges 

2010, which combines the 2010 reports 

on new, replaced and rehabilitated nonFederal-aid bridges. 

• Non-Federal-aid Highways: 

Construction Materials for New 

Replaced and Rehabilitated Bridges 

2009, which combines the 2009 reports 

on new, replaced and rehabilitated nonFederal-aid bridges. 

The tables provide data for 2 years: 

2009 and 2010. The 2009 data is 

considered complete for new, replaced 

and rehabilitated bridges, with a 

minimal likelihood of upward changes 

in the totals. The 2010 data is 

considered partially complete for new 

bridges and complete for rehabilitated 

bridges, because many new bridges built 

in 2010 will not appear in the NBI until 

they are placed into service the 

following year. Therefore, next year’s 

report will include 2010’s data on new 

bridge construction, because the data 

will be complete. 

Each table displays simple counts of 

bridges and total bridge deck area. Total 

bridge deck area is measured in square 

meters, by multiplying the bridge length 

by the deck width out-to-out. Culverts 

under fill are included in the counts but 

not in the areas because a roadway 

width is not collected. The data is 

categorized by the following material 

types, which are identified in the NBI: 

steel, concrete, pre-stressed concrete, 

and other. The category ‘‘other’’ 

includes wood, timber, masonry, 

aluminum, wrought iron, cast iron, and
