Abstract:
This is a request for an extension without change of a currently approved information collection (OMB# 2132-0578) “Public Transportation Safety Certification Training Program (PTSCTP)”. There have been no programmatic or statutory changes or requirements since the last OMB submission. Therefore there are no changes to the respondents, responses or annual burden hours. This is a mandatory information collection. Through the PTSCTP, FTA provides minimum training requirements for Federal and State personnel and contractors who conduct safety audits and examinations of transit systems and for transit agency personnel and contractors who are directly responsible for safety oversight. The program respondents are Rail Transit Agencies (RTAs) and State Safety Oversight Agencies (SSOAs) who will forward training information to FTA on behalf of designated personnel. This requirement is necessary to assure that compliance with the requirements is properly and earnestly undertaken by respondents who are directly responsible for safety oversight of our Nation’s public transportation systems. The information collected allows the FTA to record completion of the required training and to ensure annual certification.
