SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose

    In December 2015, the Fixing America's Surface Transportation 
(FAST) Act outlined a set of fundamental requirements designed to 
change the way federal government agencies carry out their permitting 
and environmental review responsibilities for major infrastructure 
projects. Section 41003(a)(1)(A) of the FAST Act states that a 
``project sponsor of a covered project shall submit to the Executive 
Director and the facilitating agency notice of the initiation of a 
proposed covered project.'' The statute goes on to describe the 
required information to be contained in this notice of initiation.
    In order to accommodate this statutory requirement, the Federal 
Permitting Improvement Steering Council (FPISC) has developed the 
Notice of Initiation form. The information collected via the Notice of 
Initiation form will be reviewed by the facilitating agency, as 
identified for the particular type of project under consideration, as 
well as the Executive Director of the FPISC in order to verify that the 
project in question qualifies to be considered a ``covered project.'' 
If the project outlined in the Notice of Initiation is accepted as a 
covered project, the project will be added to the online Permitting 
Dashboard and a series of steps will be taken by the facilitating 
agency and the Executive Director as outlined in Title XLI of the FAST 
Act.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Respondents: 75.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Total Annual Responses: 75.
    Hours per Response: 2.
    Total Burden Hours: 150.

C. Public Comments

    Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this 
collection of information is necessary, whether it will have practical 
utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection 
of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and 
methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and ways in

[[Page 52693]]

which we can minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, through the use of appropriate technological 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
