SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In FR Doc. 2016-05489 published in the Federal Register of Wednesday, March 16, 2016 (80 FR 14230), the following corrections are made:

1. On page 14255, in the second column, the third full paragraph that starts with “Respondents:” is corrected to read as follows:

Total Respondents: 90 (30 States + 60 Rail Transit Agencies).

2. On page 14255, in the second column, the fifth full paragraph that starts with “Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours:” is corrected to read as follows:

Total Annual Burden Hours: 586,443 hours (336,843 State Safety Oversight (SSO) Agency hours + 249,600 Rail Transit Agency (RTA) hours).

FTA estimates that the annual information collection burden for States implementing 49 CFR part 674 requirements is 336,843 total hours. This equates to approximately 11,228 hours devoted to information collection activities for each of the estimated 30 States in the SSO Program. FTA estimates that the annual information collection burden for RTAs is approximately 249,600 total hours, or approximately 4,160 hours for each of the 60 rail transit agencies in the SSO Program.
