Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Requests for Comments; 

Clearance of a New Approval of 

Information Collection: ICAO CO2

Certification Database 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA 

invites public comments about our 

intention to request the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) 

approval for a new information 

collection. The collection involves the 

possibility for airplane manufacturers 

for which the airplane is subject to the 

applicability of Annex 16, Volume III of 

the Convention on Civil Aviation 

(hereinafter the ‘‘Chicago Convention’’) 

to submit electronically CO2

Certification Database (CO2DB) 

Datasheet(s) to the FAA. The 

information to be collected will be 

necessary because of FAA’s 

commitment to help (a) provide 

publicly available data on the CO2

Metric Value (MV) which represents a 

measure of fuel burn performance of 

airplane types against CO2 technology/ 

design standards, (b) track and 

communicate the improvement in 

airplane CO2 MVs over time and (c) 

provide an incentive to improve the CO2

MV of airplane types. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

submitted by June 27, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are 

invited to submit written comments on 

the proposed information collection to 

the Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs, Office of Management and 

Budget. Comments should be addressed 

to the attention of the Desk Officer, 

Department of Transportation/FAA, and 

sent via electronic mail to oira_

submission@omb.eop.gov, or faxed to 

(202) 395–6974, or mailed to the Office 

of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Office of Management and Budget, 

Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th 

Street NW, Washington, DC 20503. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Laszlo Windhoffer at (202) 267–4741, or 

by email at: Laszlo.Windhoffer@faa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Appendix 

A ‘‘Supporting Statement A’’. 

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. 

OMB Control Number: 2120–XXXX. 

Title: ICAO CO2 Certification Database 

(CO2DB). 

Form Numbers: Not applicable. 

Type of Review: Clearance of a new 

information collection. 

Background: In March 2017, the 

International Civil Aviation 

Organization (ICAO) Council adopted 

the Volume III of Annex 16 of the 

Chicago Convention (Environmental 

Protection) for the implementation of a 

new airplane CO2 emissions standard. 

The Standard will apply to new airplane 

type designs from 2020, and to airplane 

type designs already in-production as of 

2023. Those in-production airplane 

which by 2028 do not meet the standard 

will no longer be able to be produced 

unless their designs are sufficiently 

modified to comply with the inproduction standard. 

To support the implementation of 

Annex 16 Volume III, ICAO agreed that, 

similar to noise and engine emissions, 

an ICAO CO2 Certification Database 

(CO2DB) should be developed and 

continuously maintained in a publicly 

accessible manner. The U.S. Federal 

Aviation Administration will host the 

new database on behalf of ICAO. 

The aim of the CO2DB is to (a) Provide 

publicly available data on the CO2

Metric Value (MV) which represents a 

measure of fuel burn performance of 

airplane types against CO2 technology/ 

design standards, (b) Track and 

communicate the improvement in 

airplane CO2 MVs over time and (c) 

Provide an incentive to improve the CO2

MV of airplane types. 

The collection of data towards the 

CO2DB is expected to leverage the 

Airplane Airworthiness Certification 

process, which includes; airplane 

performance measurement, computation 

of relevant metrics (e.g., CO2 MV) and 

submission of the information to the 

Certificating Authority (CA) of the State 

of Design. As part of the airworthiness 

certification process, the data/ 

information is reviewed by the CA and 

approved. Given that the submission of 

information into the CO2DB is 

voluntary, it is expected that the 

applicant (e.g., airplane manufacturer) 

will decide to submit a CO2DB 

Datasheet to its CA and ultimately to the 

U.S. FAA. If the applicant decides to 

submit information to the CO2DB, the 

applicant will prepare a CO2DB 

Datasheet by using the CO2DB Datasheet 

Template that will be publicly available 

via the CO2DB web page expected to be 

hosted on the FAA Office of 

Environment and Energy website. 

Once the U.S. FAA collects the 

CO2DB Datasheets it may conduct an 

information check to identify any gross 

errors or mistakes. Similar to other 

ICAO environment databases, the entity 

submitting the information (in this case 

the applicant) will be solely responsible 

for the accuracy of the information. If 

there are any questions about 

submissions, the U.S. FAA will 

communicate with the applicant to 

attempt to address any issues. 

CO2DB Datasheets will then be 

integrated into the CO2DB and the 

records of changes will be updated. It is 

expected that the database will be 

available for download in a common 

table format (e.g., Microsoft Excel file) 

as well as a collection of the submitted 

CO2DB Datasheets. Additional 

background and supporting information 

will also be available on the CO2DB 

website along with a Support Function 

communication mechanism (e.g., email 

address). 

Respondents: Respondents will be 

airplane manufacturers (or 

‘‘applicants’’) subject to the 

applicability of Annex 16, Volume III of 

the Chicago Convention. From the 

outset, FAA expects about 3 U.S. 

airplane applicants to submit CO2DB 

Datasheets for their certified airplanes. 

It should be noted that additional 

respondents from outside the United 

States (i.e., Airplane Manufacturers for 

which the Certificating Authority is 

another ICAO Member State than the 

United States) are expected to submit 

CO2DB Datasheets to the CO2DB for 

their certified airplane. These non-US 

applicants were assumed to be outside 

the scope of the burden analysis 

contained in Supporting Statement A 

and were therefore not included as 

respondents. 

Frequency: If they decide to submit 

information to the CO2DB, the 

manufacturers will submit data after the 

certification of an airplane. It is 

expected that manufacturers would 

submit one CO2DB Datasheet for each 

airplane model. As described in 

Supporting Statement A and based on 

historical frequency of airplane 

certification, each U.S. manufacturer 

could be expected to certificate up to 

two new models every three years. 

Thus, in mathematical terms, the FAA 

would expect to receive an average of 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 80 / Tuesday, April 26, 2022 / Notices 24607 

two thirds of one datasheet per year and 

per respondent. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: It is expected that filling and 

submitting a CO2DB Datasheet could 

take approximately 5 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 

Based on the above, FAA expects that 

the annual submission of CO2DB 

Datasheet by U.S. airplane 

manufacturers could take approximately 

5 hours for an average of 2 submissions 

per year across 3 manufacturers.

2022.

Environment and Energy. 

Appendix A: Supporting Statement A 

for the ICAO CO2 Certification Database 

1. Explain the circumstances that make the 

collection of information necessary. Identify 

any legal or administrative requirements that 

necessitate the collection. 

On March 6, 2017 the United States 

(through its International Civil Aviation 

Organization [ICAO] Council Member) voted 

to adopt Annex 16, Vol. III of the Chicago 

Convention. Annex 16, Vol. III contains the 

Standards and Recommended Practices 

(SARPs) relating to the implementation of the 

airplane CO2 standard. 

The ICAO standard applies to (1) Subsonic 

jet aeroplanes, (2) All propeller-driven 

aeroplanes, (3) Derived versions of non-CO2- 

certified subsonic jet aeroplanes, (4) Derived 

versions of non-CO2 certified propellerdriven aeroplanes and (5) Individual nonCO2-certified subsonic jet aeroplanes and 

propeller-driven aeroplanes. The standard 

applies to new airplane type designs 

submitted for certification after January 1, 

2020, and to airplane type designs already inproduction as of 2023. After January 1, 2028, 

airplanes that do not meet the standard may 

no longer be produced unless their designs 

are sufficiently modified. 

Airplane manufacturers in the U.S. and 

other ICAO countries are required to show 

compliance with the ICAO standard at the 

time of airplane certification. 

In February 2016, members of ICAO’s 

Committee on Aviation Environmental 

Protection (CAEP) agreed that, similar to 

noise and engine emissions, an ICAO CO2

Certification Database (CO2DB) should be 

developed and continuously maintained in a 

publicly accessible manner. Information 

submission to the CO2DB is done by 

manufacturers and by the certificating 

authority of the State of airplane design on 

a voluntary basis. It is not a requirement or 

standard contained in Annex 16 Volume III. 

The United States (FAA) agreed to host the 

database on behalf of ICAO. 

The aim of the CO2DB is to: 

(a) Provide publicly available data on the 

CO2 metric value (MV) for each certificated 

airplane model; MV represents a measure of 

fuel burn performance of airplane types 

against CO2 technology/design standards. 

(b) Track and communicate improvements 

in airplane CO2 MVs over time. 

(c) Provide an incentive to manufacturers 

to improve the CO2 MV of each airplane type. 

Attachments: 

• Annex 16, Vol. III 

2. Indicate how, by whom, and for what 

purpose the information is to be used. Except 

for a new collection, indicate the actual use 

the agency has made of the information 

received from the current collection. 

The data expected to be submitted for the 

CO2DB is generated during the airworthiness 

certification process, which includes airplane 

performance measurement, computation of 

relevant metrics (e.g., CO2 MV) and 

submission of the information to the 

Certificating Authority (CA) of the State of 

Design. As part of the airworthiness 

certification process, the data and 

information are reviewed and approved by 

each CA. 

Since submission of information to the 

CO2DB is voluntary, it is the decision of the 

certification applicant (e.g., manufacturer) to 

decide whether to submit CO2DB data to its 

CA and ultimately to the FAA for inclusion 

in the database. If the applicant decides to 

submit information to the CO2DB, the 

applicant prepares a datasheet using the 

CO2DB Datasheet Template that will be 

available on the CO2DB website. The 

template is a one-page document that 

requires identification of the airplane type 

design, whether it is a new type design or inproduction, and includes airframe, engine, 

and propeller information 

Following the decision by the certification 

applicant to submit to the CO2DB, each CA 

will review the applicant’s CO2DB datasheet 

to ensure that it conforms to the database 

requirements. The CA will then submit the 

CO2DB datasheet(s) to the FAA. 

Once the FAA collects the CO2DB 

datasheets, it may choose to conduct an 

information check to identify any gross errors 

or mistakes; this process is optional for the 

FAA as the CA remains responsible for the 

accuracy of the information and data 

contained in the CO2DB datasheets it submits 

to the FAA). If there are any concerns about 

submissions, the FAA will communicate 

with the CA in an attempt to address any 

issues. 

The FAA will integrate the datasheets into 

the CO2DB and update the records of 

changes. The plan is to have the database 

available for download in a common table 

format (e.g., Microsoft Excel file), and as a 

file of the submitted CO2DB datasheets. 

Additional background and supporting 

information will also be available on the 

CO2DB website along with a Support 

Function communication mechanism with 

the FAA (e.g., email address). 

The submission of CO2DB datasheets will 

take place on an ad-hoc (not regular or 

recurring) basis after an airplane is 

certificated. One submission is expected for 

each airplane model following its initial type 

certification, and again if an airplane model 

is modified and it requires a recertification 

for CO2 in accordance with the regulations of 

the State of design. 

Attachment: 

• CO2DB Datasheet template 

3. Describe whether, and to what extent, 

the collection of information involves the use 

of automated, electronic, mechanical, or 

other technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

The CO2DB datasheet template is a 

Microsoft Excel-based template, which 

maximizes convenience for certification 

applicants (i.e., manufacturers) and the 

Certificating Authority of the State of design. 

The application is in widespread use and 

allows ease of data entry. The CO2DB 

datasheets will be submitted electronically. 

4. Describe efforts to identify duplication. 

Show specifically why any similar 

information already available cannot be used 

or modified for use for the purposes 

described in Item 2 above. 

The CO2 certification requirement is new 

in ICAO Annex 16. The conforming U.S. 

regulatory requirements are in process. At 

present, airplane certification data submitted 

to and collected by the FAA does not include 

airplane level CO2 certification data as 

defined in Annex 16, Vol. III. 

5. If the collection of information involves 

small businesses or other small entities, 

describe the methods used to minimize 

burden. 

This collection will not involve small 

businesses or small entities. 

Note: As described in section 1, the CO2

certification requirements apply to airplane 

manufacturers that are generally not 

considered small businesses or small entities. 

In addition, Certificating Authorities of the 

State of design are government entities, not 

small businesses or small entities. 

6. Describe the consequence to Federal 

program or policy activities if the collection 

is not conducted or is conducted less 

frequently, as well as any technical or legal 

obstacles to reducing burden. 

As described in section 1, information 

submission to the CO2DB is done by 

manufacturers and the Certificating 

Authority of the State of design on a 

voluntary basis. There are no impacts to the 

airworthiness of an airplane if the CO2

certification data is not reported to the 

CO2DB. The aim of the CO2DB is to: (a) 

Provide publicly available data on the CO2

MV which represents a measure of fuel burn 

performance of airplane types against CO2

technology/design standards; (b) Track and 

communicate improvements in airplane CO2

MVs over time; and (c) Provide an incentive 

to improve the CO2 MV of airplane types. 

The absence of CO2 certification data in the 

CO2DB would limit transparency and 

comparison across airplanes types and the 

industry worldwide. 

7. Explain any special circumstances that 

would cause an information collection to be 

conducted in a manner: 

• Requiring respondents to report 

information to the agency more often than 

quarterly; 

None. Data is submitted voluntarily by 

airplane manufacturers only when airplanes 

are required to demonstrate compliance with 

the CO2 standard. 

• requiring respondents to prepare a 

written response to a collection of 

information in fewer than 30 days after 

receipt of it; 

None. Submission is voluntary. 

• requiring respondents to submit more 

than an original and two copies of any 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
24608 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 80 / Tuesday, April 26, 2022 / Notices 

document; requiring respondents to retain 

records, other than health, medical, 

government contract, grant-in-aid, or tax 

records, for more than three years; 

None. 

• in connection with a statistical survey, 

that is not designed to produce valid and 

reliable results that can be generalized to the 

universe of study; 

None. 

• requiring the use of a statistical data 

classification that has not been reviewed and 

approved by OMB; 

None. 

• that includes a pledge of confidentiality 

that is not supported by authority established 

in statute or regulation, that is not supported 

by disclosure and data security policies that 

are consistent with the pledge, or which 

unnecessarily impedes sharing of data with 

other agencies for compatible confidential 

use; or 

None. 

• requiring respondents to submit 

proprietary trade secrets, or other 

confidential information unless the agency 

can demonstrate that it has instituted 

procedures to protect the information’s 

confidentiality to the extent permitted by law. 

None. 

8. Provide information on the PRA Federal 

Register Notice that solicited public 

comments on the information collection prior 

to this submission. Summarize the public 

comments received in response to that notice 

and describe the actions taken by the agency 

in response to those comments. Describe the 

efforts to consult with persons outside the 

agency to obtain their views on the 

availability of data, frequency of collection, 

the clarity of instructions and recordkeeping, 

disclosure, or reporting format (if any), and 

on the data elements to be recorded, 

disclosed, or reported. 

Not applicable. 

9. Explain any decisions to provide 

payments or gifts to respondents, other than 

remuneration of contractors or grantees. 

N/A. The FAA will not be providing any 

payments or gifts to respondents. 

10. Describe any assurance of 

confidentiality provided to respondents and 

the basis for assurance in statute, regulation, 

or agency policy. 

No assurance given. Entities submitting 

information understand that it is a voluntary 

submission to a publicly available database. 

11. Provide additional justification for any 

questions of a sensitive nature, such as 

sexual behavior and attitudes, religious 

beliefs, and other matters that are commonly 

considered private. 

N/A. This collection does not contain any 

questions of a sensitive nature. 

12. Provide estimates of the hour burden of 

the collection of information. The statement 

should: 

• Indicate the number of respondents, 

frequency of response, annual hour burden, 

and an explanation of how the burden was 

estimated. Unless directed to do so, agencies 

should not conduct special surveys to obtain 

information on which to base hour burden 

estimates. Consultation with a sample (fewer 

than 10) of potential respondents is desirable. 

If the hour burden on respondents is 

expected to vary widely because of 

differences in activity, size, or complexity, 

show the range of estimated hour burden, 

and explain the reasons for the variance. 

Generally, estimates should not include 

burden hours for customary and usual 

business practices. * If this request for 

approval covers more than one form, provide 

separate hour burden estimates for each form 

and aggregate the hour burdens. 

• Provide estimates of annualized cost to 

respondents for the hour burdens for 

collections of information, identifying and 

using appropriate wage rate categories. The 

cost of contracting out or paying outside 

parties for information collection activities 

should not be included here. Instead, this 

cost should be included under item 13. 

Number of respondents (total): The FAA 

expects up to three U.S. airplane 

manufacturers to potentially submit a 

voluntary CO2 certification datasheet each 

year. Based on agency participation with 

ICAO in developing the airplane CO2

standards, the agency expects up to 12–20 

non-U.S. airplane manufacturers to submit 

data annually, with no effect on U.S. 

respondents. 

Frequency of submission of CO2

certification datasheet per respondent: 

D Each manufacturer decides whether to 

submit information to the CO2DB following 

certification of an airplane model, with one 

datasheet for each airplane model. Based on 

the number of airplanes certificated from 

1900–2019, each U.S. manufacturer could be 

expected to certificate up to two new models 

every three years. Thus, in mathematical 

terms, the FAA would expect to receive an 

average of two thirds of one datasheet from 

each U.S. manufacturer each year. 

Hour burden per year (total): The FAA 

estimates that filling and submitting two (2) 

CO2 certification datasheets (i.e., 2 responses) 

would take a total of five (5) hours per year. 

D It is estimated that the respondent will 

take a total of 2.5 hours to prepare and 

submit a CO2 certification datasheet. The 

breakdown of this burden is 1 hour to fill out 

the datasheet, 0.5 hour for record keeping 

associated with the CO2 certification, and 1 

hour to disclose and submit the datasheet to 

the FAA.

13. Provide an estimate for the total annual 

cost burden to respondents or record keepers 

resulting from the collection of information. 

Overall, this collection is estimated to 

result in the following: 

D The total cost to all manufacturers of 

filling and submitting two CO2 certification 

datasheets would be approximately $298 per 

year. 

CO2DB submission annualized cost (total): 

Based on hourly cost assumptions described 

in the section below: ‘‘Explanation of CO2

certification datasheet submission burden’’, 

the total estimated cost for filling and 

submitting a CO2 certification datasheet is 

approximately $149 per individual datasheet 

submission. 

Explanation of CO2 certification datasheet 

submission burden: The hourly rates for the 

preparation and submission of a CO2

certification datasheet are based on a mix of 

wage rates that include a 50% burden on 

General and Operations Managers (11–1021) 

with an hourly rate of $59.35 and a 50% 

burden on a Management Analysts (13–1110) 

with an hourly rate of $44.92. The fully 

loaded rate of $74.96 was calculated using a 

multiplier of 1.44 based on the United States 

average of wage and salaries and benefits for 

private industry workers [U.S. BLS 2018]. 

Note.—The information submitted on the 

CO2 certification datasheet is expected to be 

part of the certification data that will be 

gathered and recorded as part of airplane 

CO2 certification requirements. The CO2 data 

would be reported voluntarily for inclusion in 

the CO2DB. With the exception of filling out 

the datasheet, there are no additional costs 

of collecting information in support of 

submissions to the CO2DB. 

Note.—The FAA notes that 12 to 20 

additional manufacturers are eligible to 

submit airplane data into the CO2DB. Since 

these are non-U.S. manufacturers that will 

submit to their own CAs, the FAA has no 

means to estimate the cost burden on these 

entities. This lack of information and the 

voluntary nature of the submission have led 

to our exclusion of them from this 

assessment. 

14. Provide estimates of annualized costs 

to the Federal government. Also, provide a 

description of the method used to estimate 

cost, which should include quantification of 

hours, operational expenses (such as 

equipment, overhead, printing, and support 

staff), and any other expense that would not 

have been incurred without this collection of 

information. 

Estimated annualized cost to the Federal 

government: The total estimated costs to the 

Federal government related to the CO2

certification datasheets are expected to range 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 80 / Tuesday, April 26, 2022 / Notices 24609 

from $3480 to $4600 per year all of which is 

expected to be considered as operating 

(recurring) cost. 

Note.—The range of cost estimates above 

includes expected processing of submissions 

from non-U.S. manufacturers the FAA finds 

would be eligible to submit CO2 certification 

datasheets. 

Explanation of how annualized cost to the 

Federal government was estimated: 

D Estimates of costs to the Federal 

government include; cost of collecting 

electronically submitted CO2 certification 

datasheets, reviewing them, adding them to 

the database, publishing the database, and 

supporting the electronic reporting systems. 

D The collection of the CO2 certification 

datasheets are assumed to take 1 hour per 

CO2 certification datasheet submitted. 

D The review of CO2 certification 

datasheets is estimated to require 4 hours for 

each CO2 certification datasheet submitted. 

D The electronic publication of the CO2DB 

is estimated to require 8 hours per 

publication. Assuming 4 publications per 

year, the total burden to publish the CO2DB 

is estimated to be 32 hours per year. 

D The hourly rate ($42.67) for collecting, 

reviewing CO2 certification datasheets and 

managing and publishing the CO2DB are 

based on a mix of wage rates including a 10% 

burden on GS–15 with hourly rate of $57.09 

and 90% burden on a GS–13 with hourly rate 

of $41.07 (where $42.67 is calculated as the 

weighted sum of; $57.09 multiplied by 0.1 

and $41.07 multiplied by 0.9). 

15. Explain the reasons for any program 

changes or adjustments. 

This is a new collection; therefore, it is not 

a program change. 

16. For collections of information whose 

results will be published, outline plans for 

tabulation and publication. Address any 

complex analytical techniques that will be 

used. Provide the time schedule for the entire 

project, including beginning and ending 

dates of the collection of information, 

completion of report, publication dates, and 

other actions. 

Upon receipt a new or revised CO2DB 

datasheet, the FAA will integrate it into the 

CO2DB and the record of changes will be 

updated. Data integration is a simple transfer 

of the limited amount of data contained in 

the one-page CO2DB datasheet into a single 

master table. 

The FAA expects that the database will be 

available for download in a common table 

format as a Microsoft Excel file). The 

database will also include the submitted 

CO2DB datasheets in pdf format for review. 

Additional background and supporting 

information related to the development and 

implementation of the CO2DB will also be 

available on the CO2DB website along with 

a Support Function communication 

mechanism (email address). Similarly to 

other publicly available ICAO databases 

hosted by other national aviation authorities, 

this supplemental information on FAA’s 

website will provide detailed guidance for 

entities planning to provide a submission to 

the CO2DB. 

The CO2DB will be published on an ad-hoc 

basis based on the receipt of CO2DB 

datasheets. For context, similar ICAO 

Environmental databases are published a few 

times per year: 

D For the ICAO Engine Emissions databank 

hosted and maintained by the European 

Aviation Safety Agency, the frequency of 

publication varied over time with an average 

of slightly more than twice a year. There are 

no specific/regular update patterns 

throughout the years (i.e., updates have been 

published throughout the year except in 

August). 

D For the ICAO NoisedB hosted and 

maintained by the French Civil Aviation 

Authority, the frequency of publication has 

been 3 to 4 times per year. 

17. If seeking approval to not display the 

expiration date for OMB approval of the 

information collection, explain the reasons 

why display would be inappropriate. 

FAA is seeking approval not to display an 

expiration date for the CO2DB datasheet 

template. The applicability of the ICAO 

standard in Annex 16 Vol. III is permanent. 

The information requested on the CO2DB 

datasheet template is not expected to change, 

but manufacturers may need to submit new 

or updated CO2DB datasheets for new 

airplane certifications or modifications, or 

they may need to amend existing database 

information. FAA requests approval not to 

display an expiration date that may confuse 

an international process. 

18. Explain each exception to the topics of 

the certification statement identified in 

‘‘Certification for Paperwork Reduction Act 

Submissions.’’ 

There are no exceptions to the certification 

statement.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: National Complete Streets 

Assessment. 

Background: The Federal Highway 

Administration is committed to a 

Complete Streets approach that is safe, 

and feels safe, for everyone using the 

street. The Infrastructure Investment 

and Jobs Act (IIJA), also known as the 

Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), 

Section 11206, defines Complete Streets 

standards or policies as those which 

‘‘ensure the safe and adequate 

accommodation of all users of the 

transportation system, including 

pedestrians, bicyclists, public 

transportation users, children, older 

individuals, individuals with 

disabilities, motorists, and freight 

vehicles.’’ 

While many jurisdictions across the 

United States have adopted Complete 

Streets policies directing their 

transportation agencies to routinely 

plan, design, build, and operate safe 

street networks for everyone, the FHWA 

would like to establish a baseline 

inventory both the enabling policies and 

implementation strategies for Complete 

Streets at the statewide level. 

Through the survey, FHWA will 

assess the capabilities across the 50 

State Departments of Transportation, as 

well as Washington, DC, and Puerto 

Rico (52 State DOTs) and establish a 

‘‘national baseline’’ of Complete Streets 

practices. The information collected 

through this assessment will help better 

understand where FHWA can conduct 

research, develop additional technical
