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. 

OMB Control Number: 2120–0751. 

Title: Flight and Duty Limitations and 

Rest Requirements—Flightcrew 

Members. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Type of Review: Renewal of an 

information collection. 

Background: The Federal Register 

Notice with a 60-day comment period 

soliciting comments on the following 

collection of information was published 

on December 20, 2021 (86 FR 72026). 

The FAA collects reports from air 

carriers conducting passenger 

operations certificated under 14 CFR 

part 121 as prescribed in 14 CFR part 

117 Flightcrew Member Duty and Rest 

Requirements, §§§ 117.11, 117.19, and 

117.29. Air carriers are required to 

submit a report of exceeded flight duty 

periods and flight times, including 

scheduled maximum and actual flight 

duty periods and flight times, basic 

flight information (e.g., city pairs, 

departure times, flight number), and 

reason for exceedance. The purpose for 

the reports is to notify the FAA that the 

certificate holder has extended a flight 

time and/or FDP limitation. This 

information enables FAA to monitor 

trends in exceedance and possible 

underlying systemic causes requiring 

operator action as well as determine 

whether operators are scheduling 

realistically. Additionally, if air carriers 

choose to develop a Fatigue Risk 

Management System (FRMS) under 

§ 117.7 they are required to collect data 

specific to the need of the operation for 

which they will seek an FRMS 

authorization. It results in an annual 

recordkeeping and reporting burden 

when carriers adopt the system because 

they need to report the related activities 

to the FAA. Each air carrier is also 

required to develop specific elements 

and incorporate these elements into 

their training program (§ 117.9). Once 

the elements have been incorporated, 

the air carrier must submit the revised 

training program for approval. 

Respondents: 47 Air Carriers. 

Frequency: On Occasion. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: Varies by Requirement. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 

30,954 Hours. 

Issued in Washington, DC, on April 26, 

2022.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Highway Administration 

Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions 

on the Chesapeake Bay Crossing 

Study Tier 1 Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) in Maryland 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims 

for judicial review of actions by FHWA. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces actions 

taken by FHWA that are final. These 

actions relate to the Chesapeake Bay 

Crossing Study: Tier 1 NEPA (Bay 

Crossing Study) conducted to identify a 

corridor for a new crossing of the 

Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. The 

public is advised that FHWA issued a 

Record of Decision (ROD) which 

concludes the Tier 1 Bay Crossing 

Study. The ROD is combined with the 

Bay Crossing Study Tier 1 Final 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

prepared by FHWA and the Maryland 

Transportation Authority (MDTA). 

DATES: By this notice, FHWA is advising 

the public of final agency actions 

subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). A claim 

seeking judicial review of the Federal 

agency actions on the Tier 1 Bay 

Crossing Study will be barred unless the 

claim is filed on or before September 26, 

2022. If the Federal law that authorizes 

judicial review of a claim provides a 

time period of less than 150 days for 

filing such claim, then that shorter time 

period still applies. 

ADDRESSES: The Tier 1 Bay Crossing 

Study Final EIS and ROD is available 

online at www.baycrossingstudy.com.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that FHWA and the 

MDTA, in cooperation with the U.S. 

Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. 

Coast Guard, National Marine Fisheries 

Service, Maryland Department of the 

Environment, Maryland Department of 

Natural Resources, and the Maryland 

Department of Transportation State 

Highway Administration prepared a 

Tier 1 Bay Crossing Study EIS in 

accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA); the 

Council on Environmental Quality 

regulations implementing NEPA (40 

CFR parts 1500 through 1508), FHWA’s 

regulations implementing NEPA (23 

CFR part 771), and Section 4(f) (23 CFR 

part 774). The Tier 1 Bay Crossing Study 

considered corridors for providing 

additional capacity and access across 

the Chesapeake Bay in order to improve 

mobility, travel reliability, and safety at 

the existing William Preston Lane, Jr. 

Memorial (Bay) Bridge. The Tier 1 Bay 

Crossing Study evaluated potential new 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
25564 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 83 / Friday, April 29, 2022 / Notices 

corridor alternatives, including an 

assessment of existing and potentially 

expanded transportation infrastructure 

needed to support additional capacity, 

improve travel times, and accommodate 

maintenance activities, while 

considering financial viability and 

environmental responsibility. The Tier 1 

Bay Crossing Study EIS identified 

Corridor 7 as the Preferred Corridor 

Alternative that best meets the Tier 1 

Study Purpose and Need. FHWA 

concurred with the selection of Corridor 

7 and issued a ROD for the Tier 1 Bay 

Crossing Study EIS on April 14, 2022. 

The ROD, together with the Tier 1 Bay 

Crossing Study EIS pursuant to 49 

U.S.C. 304a(b), 23 U.S.C. 139(n)(2), and 

23 CFR 771.124, identifies and 

discusses all such factors that FHWA 

and MDTA balanced in making the 

decision for the Tier 1 EIS study. The 

ROD concludes the Tier 1 NEPA process 

by formally selecting Corridor 7 as the 

Selected Corridor Alternative that 

would advance into a future Tier 2 

NEPA study. 

The Selected Corridor Alternative, 

Corridor 7, is a two-mile wide corridor 

that follows the existing road network 

along US 50/301 from west of the 

Severn River on the Western Shore of 

the Chesapeake Bay to the US 50/301 

split on the Eastern Shore. This location 

includes the existing William Preston 

Lane Jr. Memorial (Bay) Bridge. The 

analysis of traffic, engineering, cost, and 

environmental considerations indicated 

that Corridor 7 would have substantial 

advantages over the other Corridor 

Alternatives Retained for Analysis 

(CARA), Corridors 6 and 8. The selected 

alternative identifies the general 

(corridor) location for future 

improvements. The specific alignment 

of a potential new crossing has not been 

defined in the Tier 1 Bay Crossing 

Study. The FHWA and MDTA would 

need to complete a Tier 2 NEPA 

engineering and environmental study 

before any construction could occur. 

The actions by FHWA on this study, 

and the laws under which such actions 

were taken, are described in the 

combined Tier 1 Final EIS and ROD and 

in other documents completed as part of 

the study. The Tier 1 Final EIS and ROD 

and other documents related to study 

approvals are available on the Bay 

Crossing Study website provided in the

contacting FHWA or MDTA at the 

addresses provided in the FOR FURTHER
