established the IPCC in 1988. In 

accordance with its mandate, and as 

reaffirmed in various decisions by the 

Panel, the major activity of the IPCC is 

to prepare comprehensive and up-todate assessments of policy-relevant, 

scientific, technical, and socioeconomic information for understanding 

the scientific basis of climate change, 

potential impacts, and options for 

mitigation and adaptation.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Railroad Administration 

[Docket No. FRA–2017–0002–N–12] 

Proposed Agency Information 

Collection Activities; Comment 

Request 

AGENCY: Federal Railroad 

Administration (FRA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Notice and comment request. 

SUMMARY: Under the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), this notice 

announces that FRA is forwarding the 

currently approved Information 

Collection Request (ICR) abstracted 

below to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) for review and comment. 

The ICR describes the information 

collection and its expected burden. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before October 13, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments regarding 

these information collections to the 

Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs, Office of Management and 

Budget, 725 17th Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20503, Attention: FRA 

Desk Officer. Comments may also be 

sent via email to OMB at the following 

address: oira_submissions@

omb.eop.gov. 

Comments are invited on the 

following: Whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for DOT to properly perform its 

functions, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

the accuracy of DOT’s estimates of the 

burden of the proposed information 

collections; ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and ways to minimize the 

burden of the collections of information 

on respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

A comment to OMB is best assured of 

having its full effect if OMB receives it 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Kim Toone, Information Collection 

Clearance Officer, Office of 

Administration, Office of Information 

Technology, RAD–20, Federal Railroad 

Administration, 1200 New Jersey 

Avenue SE., Mail Stop 35, Washington, 

DC 20590 (Telephone: (202) 493–6132). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA, 

44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its 

implementing regulations, 5 CFR part 

1320, require Federal agencies to issue 

two notices seeking public comment on 

information collection activities before 

OMB may approve paperwork packages. 

44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.5, 

1320.8(d)(1), and 1320.10. On May 2, 

2017, FRA published a 60-day notice in 

the Federal Register soliciting comment 

on the ICR for which it is now seeking 

OMB approval. See 82 FR 20530. FRA 

received no comments in response to 

this notice. 

Before OMB decides whether to 

approve these proposed collections of 

information, it must provide 30 days for 

public comment. 44 U.S.C. 3507(b); 5 

CFR 1320.12(d). Federal law requires 

OMB to approve or disapprove 

paperwork packages between 30 and 60 

days after the 30-day notice is 

published. 44 U.S.C. 3507(b)–(c); 5 CFR 

1320.12(d); see also 60 FR 44978, 44983, 

Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes the 30-day 

notice informs the regulated community 

to file relevant comments and affords 

the agency adequate time to digest 

public comments before it renders a 

decision. 60 FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995. 

Therefore, respondents should submit 

their respective comments to OMB 

within 30 days of publication to best 

ensure having their full effect. 5 CFR 

1320.12(c); see also 60 FR 44983, Aug. 

29, 1995. 

The summary below describes the ICR 

and its expected burden. FRA is 

submitting the new request for clearance 

by OMB as the PRA requires. 

Title: Experimental Investigation of 

Automation-Induced Human Error in 

Locomotive Cab. 

OMB Control Number: 2130–XXXX. 

Abstract: The purpose of this 

collection is to identify and evaluate the 

potential for human error associated 

with the operation of systems and 

automation in the locomotive cab. This 

research addresses DOT’s strategic goal 

of safety. Once the nature and risk of the 

human error in locomotive cab systems 

and automation is better understood, 

error mitigating steps can be taken to 

provide safer systems and reduce the 

risk of accidents or incidents involving 

these systems. FRA will use the 

research’s results to identify training, 

operational procedures, or automation 

design standards that will improve the 

safety of automated systems in 

locomotive cabs. 

Type of Request: New information 

collection request.
