TAD-10, Washington, DC 20590 (202) 366-0354 or [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), 
Public Law 104-13, Section 2, 109 Stat. 163 (1995) (codified as revised 
at 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), 
1320.12. On August 16, 2016, FTA published a 60-day notice (81 FR 
54660) in the Federal Register soliciting comments on the ICR that the 
agency was seeking OMB approval. FTA received no comments after issuing 
this 60-day notice. Accordingly, DOT announces that these information 
collection activities have been re-evaluated and certified under 5 CFR 
1320.5(a) and forwarded to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 
CFR 1320.12(c).
    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 that 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

[[Page 81240]]

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 summaries below describe the nature of the information 
collection requirements (ICRs) and the expected burden. The 
requirements are being submitted for clearance by OMB as required by 
the PRA.
    Title: Transit Investments in Greenhouse Gas and Energy Reduction 
(TIGGER) Program.
    OMB Control Number: 2132-0566.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) 
established the Transit Investments in Greenhouse Gas and Energy 
Reduction (TIGGER) Program with $100 million in new discretionary grant 
program funding to support public transit agencies in making capital 
investments that would assist in the reduction of energy consumption or 
greenhouse gas emissions within their public transportation systems. In 
two subsequent years, The Transportation, Housing and Urban 
Development, Related Agencies Appropriations Act, The Department of 
Defense and Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act appropriated an 
additional $75 million and $49.9 million, respectively, for FY 2010 and 
FY 2011. The TIGGER Program has awarded 87 competitively selected 
projects, implementing a wide variety of technologies to meet program 
goals. The awarded projects were geographically diverse, covering 35 
states and 67 different transit agencies in both urban and rural 
settings. Since there has been no new funding since 2011, the 
information that's currently being collected for this program is 
submitted as part of the Project Management reporting requirements for 
TIGGER. The collection of Project Management information provides 
documentation that the recipients of TIGGER funds are meeting program 
objectives and are complying with FTA Circular 5010.1D, ``Grant 
Management Requirements'' and other federal requirements. FTA has 
published a Federal Register notice for the Announcement of Project 
Selections for each NOFA in consecutive FY, 2009, 2010, and 2011, 
identifying program recipients.
    Annual Estimated Total Burden Hours: 3,072 hours.
    Comments Are Invited on: Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the Department, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; the accuracy of the Department's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize 
the burden of the collection 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.

Deputy Associate Administrator for Administration.
