AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of intent of waiver with 

respect to land; Indianapolis 

International Airport, Indianapolis, 

Indiana. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is considering a 

proposal to change 22.212 acres of 

airport land from the federal obligation 

dedicating it to aeronautical use and to 

authorize this land to be used for 

revenue producing, non-aeronautical 

purposes at Indianapolis International 

Airport, Indianapolis, Indiana. The 

aforementioned land is not needed for 

current or future aeronautical use. 

The land is north of the Indianapolis 

Maintenance Center, west of the 

Indianapolis Maintenance Center’s 

central energy plant, and industrial 

waste water treatment facility located 

just south of U.S. Route 40 and west of 

Brushwood Road. The land is not

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with section 47107(h) of 

Title 49, United States Code, this notice 

is required to be published in the 

Federal Register 30 days before 

modifying the land-use assurance that 

requires the property to be used for an 

aeronautical purpose. 

The vacant property consists of 

portions of 4 original airport acquired 

parcels. These parcels were acquired 

with local funds. The land is located 

outside the airport operations area. 

There are no impacts to the airport by 

allowing the Indianapolis Airport 

Authority to lease the property for solar 

energy generation. 

The Indianapolis Airport Authority 

will control use of the parcel through 

terms and conditions of the ground 

lease. The lease will be subordinate to 

the sponsor’s existing grant assurances. 

This will ensure that all activities on the 

parcel will be compatible with FAA 

requirements and airport operations. 

The disposition of proceeds from the 

lease of the airport property will be in 

accordance with FAA’s Policy and 

Procedures Concerning the Use of 

Airport Revenue, published in the 

Federal Register on February 16, 1999 

(64 FR 7696). 

A fair market value (FMV) appraisal 

for the parcel was completed in 

September 2014 in accordance with 

FAA Order 5100.37A. The appraisal 

concluded that the FMV for an annual 

commercial ground lease of the property 

is $5,342.98 per acre. 

This notice announces that the FAA 

is considering the release of the subject 

airport property at the Indianapolis 

International Airport, Indianapolis, 

Indiana from its obligations to be 

maintained for aeronautical purposes. 

Approval does not constitute a 

commitment by the FAA to financially 

assist in the change in use of the subject 

airport property nor a determination of 

eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from 

the FAA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: 2015 National Household Travel 

Survey (NHTS). 

Type of Request: New request for 

periodic information collection 

requirement. 

Background: Title 23, United States 

Code, Section 502 authorizes the 

USDOT to carry out advanced research 

and transportation research to measure 

the performance of the surface 

transportation systems in the US, 

including the efficiency, energy use, air 

quality, congestion, and safety of the 

highway and intermodal transportation 

systems. The USDOT is charged with 

the overall responsibility to obtain 

current information on national patterns 

of travel, which establishes a data base 

to better understand travel behavior, 

evaluate the use of transportation 

facilities, and gauge the impact of the 

USDOT’s policies and programs. 

The NHTS is the USDOT’s 

authoritative nationally representative 

data source for daily passenger travel. 

This inventory of travel behavior 

reflects travel mode (e.g., private 

vehicles, public transportation, walk 

and bike) and trip purpose (e.g., travel 

to work, school, recreation, personal/

family trips) by U.S. household 

residents. Survey results are used by 

federal and state agencies to monitor the 

performance and adequacy of current 

facilities and infrastructure, and to plan 

for future needs. 

The collection and analysis of 

national transportation data has been of 

critical importance for nearly half a 

century. Previous surveys were 

conducted in 1969, 1977, 1983, 1990, 

1995, 2001, and 2009. The current 

survey will be the eighth in this series, 

and allow researchers, planners, and 

officials at the state and federal levels to 

monitor travel trends. 

Data from the NHTS are widely used 

to support research needs within the 

USDOT, and State and local agencies, in 

addition to responding to queries from 

Congress, the research community and 

the media on important issues. Current 

and recent topics of interest include: 

• Travel to work patterns by 

transportation mode for infrastructure 

improvements and congestion 

reduction, 

• Access to public transit, paratransit, 

and rail services by various 

demographic groups, 

• Measures of travel by mode to 

establish exposure rates for risk 

analyses, 

• Support for Federal, State, and local 

planning activities and policy 

evaluation, 

• Active transportation by walk and 

bike to establish the relationship to 

public health issues, 

• Vehicle usage for energy 

consumption analysis, 

• Traffic behavior of specific 

demographic group such as Millennials 

and the aging population. 

Within the USDOT, the Federal 

Highway Administration (FHWA) holds 

responsibility for technical and funding 

coordination. The National Highway 

Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 

Federal Transit Administration (FTA), 

and the Bureau of Transportation 

Statistics (BTS) are also primary data 

users, and have historically participated 

in project planning and financial 

support. 

Proposed Data Acquisition 

Methodology 

NHTS data are collected from a 

stratified random sample of households 

that represent a broad range of 

geographic and demographic 

characteristics. Letters and a brief 

household survey are sent to selected 

households requesting some basic 

demographic and contact information 

and inviting them to participate in the 

survey. The recruitment surveys are 

returned in business reply envelopes to 

the survey contractor. 

Participating households are 

subsequently sent a package containing 

travel logs for each member of the 

household age 5 and older. The 

household is assigned to record their 

travel on a specific day, and asked to 

note every trip taken during a 24 hour 

period. Based upon their preferences, 

the travel information is then reported 

either through the use of a survey Web 

site, or through a telephone interview. 

Reminders are sent periodically to 

households who do not respond within 

the expected timeframe. Monetary 

incentives are included in each 

recruitment package, and are provided 

in increasing amounts for all 

households that complete the survey. 

The survey will collect data during an 

entire 12 month period so that all 365 

days of the year including weekends 

and holidays are accounted for. A total 

of 26,000 households will comprise the 

national sample for the 2015 survey. As 

described below, changes in the 

establishment of the sampling frame, the 

promotion of participation, and in data 

retrieval techniques are planned, as 

compared to previous surveys, to 

improve statistical precision, enhance 

response rates, and increase survey 

efficiency. 

Issues Related to Sampling. In 

previous years, the household sample 

was identified using random digit 

dialing techniques. Today, only 59 

percent 1 have a landline telephone in 

the home (down from 75% during the 

2009 NHTS) while over 80 percent of 

U.S. households have access to the 

Internet.2 This survey will leverage this 

shift in technology, in particular the 

move away from home telephone usage, 

to structure a research design that uses 

web, mail, and telephone data collection 

modes. 

The revised methodological approach 

starts with a national address-based 

sample (ABS), a change from the 

telephone-based random digit dialing 

(RDD) sample design used in recent 

NHTS efforts, while also incorporating 

core data elements that have been part 

of the NHTS since 1969.

8924 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 33 / Thursday, February 19, 2015 / Notices 

The survey sample will be drawn 

from the ABS frame maintained by 

Marketing Systems Group (MSG). It 

originates from the U.S. Postal Service 

(USPS) Computerized Delivery 

Sequence file (CDS), and is updated on 

a monthly basis. MSG also provides the 

ability to match some auxiliary variables 

(e.g., race/ethnicity, education, 

household income) to a set of sampled 

addresses. MSG geocodes their entire 

ABS frame, so block-, block group-, and 

tract-level characteristics from the 

Decennial Census and the American 

Community Survey (ACS) may be 

appended to addresses and used for 

sampling and/or data collection 

purposes. 

Sample Size. A sample size of 26,000 

households will be included in the 

national sample. Assuming response 

rates of 30 percent for the recruitment 

stage, 65 percent for the retrieval stage, 

and a residency rate of 89 percent for 

sampled addresses, a total of 149,813 

sampled addresses will be required to 

attain the targeted 26,000 responding 

households. 

Stratification. This survey produces 

state-level estimates as well as national 

estimates. Assuming equal costs and 

population variances across states, the 

most efficient design for national 

estimates is one in which the sample is 

allocated to the states in proportion to 

the size of the civilian, 

noninstitutionalized population in each 

state, and the most efficient design for 

state-level estimates is one in which 

equal sample sizes are allocated to all 

states. Various allocation options for the 

national sample are being considered in 

order to arrive at a final allocation for 

the NHTS national sample. 

With the ABS approach, identifying 

targeted areas (e.g., states) that 

correspond to those for which estimates 

can be developed from the NHTS data 

are straightforward. Addresses are 

definitively linked to states, so statelevel estimation is routine. Geocoding 

and GIS processing can be used to link 

addresses to counties in a highly 

reliable fashion. There can be some 

ambiguity for addresses that are P.O. 

boxes or are listed as rural route 

addresses. These can be handled in a 

routine manner with a set of welldefined rules as such addresses will 

represent only a small proportion of a 

state’s population. Thus, no important 

issues arise in the definition of areas 

with an ABS sample design that relies 

on mail for data collection, as is the case 

with the proposed approach. 

Assignments for recording travel data 

by sampled households will be equally 

distributed across all days to ensure a 

balanced day of week distribution. The 

sample (of recruitment letters to 

households) will be released 

periodically through a process that will 

control the balance of travel days by 

month. 

Data Collection Methods 

An updated approach to enhancing 

survey response has been developed. 

This includes providing progressive 

monetary incentives, and using a mailout/mail-back recruitment survey. This 

recruitment survey is designed to be 

relevant, aesthetically pleasing, and 

elicit participation by including topics 

of importance to the respondent. Upon 

returning the completed recruitment 

survey, each household member will be 

provided with personalized travel logs 

by mail, and offered the option of 

completing the retrieval survey by web 

using a unique personal identification 

number (PIN) or telephone interview. 

Information Proposed for Collection 

Recruitment. The survey will begin 

with mailing the sampled households a 

short recruitment survey designed to 

collect key household information (e.g. 

enumeration of household members), 

additional contact information (e.g. 

email address and telephone number). 

This recruitment survey includes some 

engaging travel-related opinion or 

experience questions considered to be 

highly relevant to the survey and 

interesting to respondents. The initial 

survey will be accompanied by a letter 

from the USDOT, and a Business Reply 

Envelope. 

In the first mail contact, each sampled 

address will receive a $2 cash incentive. 

The second mail contact will include 

the travel log package sent to each 

recruited household and a $5 cash 

incentive and a promise of an additional 

$20 for successfully submitting their 

travel logs. The incentives paid will be 

tracked at each of the three levels 

offered. 

To support the mail recruitment 

approach, the survey contractor will 

provide a toll-free number on survey 

materials and will assist the recruited 

participant to provide the required 

information by telephone if requested to 

do so by the participant. A survey Web 

site will be established for potential 

respondents who want to check on the 

authenticity of the survey or find out 

more information. This Web site will 

also serve as the portal to the survey. 

All returned recruitment surveys will 

be processed using commercial off-theshelf software (COTS) technology. All 

data collected in the recruitment survey 

will be used to populate the household 

record in the survey database. As part of 

the non-response protocol, nonresponding households may also be 

provided the opportunity to recruit by 

web. If respondents call the help desk 

or use the web to complete, their 

responses are collected in the same 

survey database. 

The mail back recruitment approach 

described here has been tested and 

found to be successful in several 

surveys funded by the Federal 

Government (e.g., the National Crime 

Victimization Survey); these surveys 

have proven this method can be 

implemented with large sample sizes 

covering vast geographic regions. This 

approach has been developed in 

response to declining recruitment rates 

in recent studies. 

Retrieval. The NHTS data will be 

collected from respondents either from 

self-reporting via the web, or from 

professionally trained interviewers 

using a computer-assisted telephone 

interviewing (CATI) system. Either 

approach will be based upon a single 

database that allows for sophisticated 

branching and skip patterns to enhance 

data retrieval by asking only those 

questions that are necessary and 

appropriate for the individual 

participant. Look-up tables are included 

to assist with information such as 

vehicle makes and models. The Google 

map UI is used to assist in identifying 

specific place names and locations. The 

location data for the participant’s home, 

workplace, or school are stored and 

automatically inserted in the dataset for 

trips after the first report. Household 

rostering is a list of all vehicles and 

persons in the household that allows a 

trip to be reported from one household 

member and can include another 

household member who travel together 

to be inserted into the record for the 

second person. This automatic insert of 

information reduces the burden of the 

second respondent to be queried about 

a trip already reported by the initial 

respondent. 

Data range, consistency and edit 

checks are automatically programmed to 

reduce reporting error, survey length, 

and maintain the flow of information 

processing. Data cross checks also help 

reduce the burden by ensuring that the 

reporting is consistent within each trip. 

Data retrieval is based upon materials 

provided to participants as shown 

below. 

Travel Log Materials 

Travel Log Packet. The travel log 

packet will include a letter, an exemplar 

log, and personalized travel logs for 

each age eligible person in the 

household, and will be sent using first 

class postage in a 6’’x9’’ envelope. The 

envelopes will be branded to match the 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 33 / Thursday, February 19, 2015 / Notices 8925 

letterhead used for the invitation letter. 

The second respondent incentive will 

be included with the travel logs. This $5 

cash incentive is expected to serve as a 

‘‘good faith’’ incentive to encourage 

completion of the retrieval survey. 

Travel Log Letter. A household letter 

will be included in the travel log packet. 

The letter will further familiarize the 

participants with the travel recording 

stage, identify the households’ travel 

date and provide details about when 

and how to complete the retrieval 

survey. The letter will also remind 

participants about the final $20 

household incentive. Like the invitation 

letter, the travel log letter will be 

branded. 

Travel Logs. A personalized travel log 

will be provided for each household 

member (ages 5 and older). The logs are 

intended to be a memory jogger to guide 

accurate data collection and aid in the 

reporting of each place visited on the 

travel day. 

Exemplar Log. Participants will be 

provided with an exemplar log with the 

instructions for recording the details 

about the places visited on the travel 

day. 

All web and computer assisted 

telephone interview (CATI) instruments 

will be reviewed for Section 508 

compliance using the rules specified in 

sections 1194.22—‘Web-based intranet 

and internet information and 

applications’ and 1194.23— 

‘Telecommunications products.’ All 

materials will be available in both 

English and Spanish language forms. 

Spanish translations will be developed 

using industry standards and will apply 

reverse-translation protocols. 

Estimated Burden Hours For 

Information Collection 

Frequency: This collection will be 

conducted every 5–7 years. 

Respondents. A stratified random 

sample of 26,000 households across the 

50 states and the District of Columbia 

will be included in the survey. 

Household will include an average of 

2.5 members for a total of 65,000 

individual respondents to the main 

survey. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response. It will take approximately 5 

minutes per household member to 

complete the recruitment data form, and 

20 minutes to complete the retrieval 

survey. This results in a total of 25 

minutes per household member. 

Total Annual Burden Hours. It is 

estimated that a total of 65,000 persons 

will be included in the survey. This 

would result in approximately 27,083 

hours of support for this data collection 

effort.
