    Title: Relocation Assistance Personal Interviews for FHWA Federal 
and Federally Assisted Programs under the Uniform Relocation Assistance 
and Real Property Acquisition Polies Act of 1970, as amended (Uniform 
Act).
    Background: This program implements 42 U.S.C. 4602, concerning 
acquisition of real property and relocation assistance for persons 
displaced by FHWA Federal and federally assisted programs. It requires 
the provision of relocation assistance and payments to U.S. citizens 
and persons legally present in the United States. The information 
collected consists of a personal interview of affected persons to 
establish eligibility for relocation assistance and payments. 
Displacing agencies will request each person who is to be displaced by 
a FHWA Federal or federally assisted project to voluntarily assist the 
agency in determining the benefits that their household, business, 
farm, or non-profit organization may be eligible to receive through the 
personal interview to determine their needs and preferences related to 
the move. This information is not required from the displaced person 
for the agency to proceed.
    Respondents: Any of the 56 State Departments of Transportations 
(52, including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico), and the United 
States territories of American Samoa, Guam, N. Mariana Is., and the 
Virgin Islands of the United States (4 territories), local government 
agencies, persons administering projects or programs receiving 
financial assistance for expenditures of Federal funds on acquisition 
and relocation payments and required services to displaced persons that 
are subject to the Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition 
Policies Act of 1970, as amended, (Uniform Act) for determination of 
Uniform Act relocation program benefit amounts, and file maintenance.
    Frequency: The information will be collected once per displacement 
of a household, business, farm, or non-profit organization.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 1 hour per respondent per 
personal interview.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: It is expected that there is 
an estimated total of 4,600 annual burden 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: December 18, 2024.
