SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Local Public Agencies Training 

and Technical Assistance Needs 

Assessment Background: The Federal 

Highway Administration (FHWA) is 

charged with implementing a local 

technical assistance program under 23 

U.S.C. 504 (b). Congress recognized that 

training and technical assistance to the 

local public agencies (LPA) to provide 

access to surface transportation 

technology, technical assistance and 

training was necessary and created the 

Rural Technical Assistance Program 

(RTAP) in 1982. In 1991, through the 

Intermodal Surface Transportation 

Efficiency Act (ISTEA) legislation, this 

program became the Local Technical 

Assistance Program (LTAP). There is an 

LTAP Center in every State and PR/ 

USVI—51 total. The program has 

launched a strategic planning process 

and a lack of data directly linking 

training to improvements in program 

delivery and innovation deployment 

outcomes posed a challenge to the 

Agency. 

A needs assessment survey will help 

inform and identify what areas of 

knowledge that training needs to 

accomplish within the local agency 

community. The results of the 

assessment will help direct resources to 

the areas of greatest demand. The survey 

will be conducted once over a 30 day 

period. These are surveys to collect 

training related information and there 

are no sensitive or personal questions, 

therefore confidentiality is not 

guaranteed or necessary. 

Respondents: Local Public Agency 

Public Works Directors and Road 

Superintendents. 

Frequency: This is a one-time 

collection. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: Approximately 7,800 

responses who will each require an 

average of 15 minutes to respond. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: The total annual public burden 

hours for this information collection is 

estimated to be 1,950 hours. 

Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act 

of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended; 

and 49 CFR 1.48.
