National Traffic Safety Survey

Key Information

Abstract

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of the U.S. Department of Transportation is seeking approval of this information collection request (ICR) to allow NHTSA to conduct six information collections as part of a new voluntary research effort titled the National Traffic Safety Survey (NTSS). The purpose of the surveys is to obtain up-to-date information about road user attitudes and behaviors related to motor vehicle safety. The respondents will be members of the public that are contacted through nationally representative sampling methods. Participation by respondents will be voluntary. Each of the surveys will contain a set of core questions that will be asked across all surveys and a combination of two additional sections consisting of questions related to seat belts, distracted driving, new vehicle technologies, or traffic safety and traffic safety enforcement. This collection only asks respondents to report their answers; there are no record-keeping costs to respondents. Each survey will have a combination of two of the four topic areas, and the order of the topic areas will be varied. The NTSS is intended to collect approximately 6,001 surveys, or 1,000 of each type of survey (with 500 surveys collected for each order in which the additional topic sections would appear). NHTSA intends to conduct a pilot of the survey first with approximately 250 respondents, followed by a full administration of the survey to 6,001 respondents, and a possible follow-up administration of the survey two years later with 6,001 respondents. For purposes of this ICR, NHTSA assumes that the survey will be conducted twice, as well as the pilot being conducted once. Accordingly, the estimates for the three-year approval are based on an average annual burden based on these targets, with an estimate that there will be approximately 681 annual respondents for each of the six information collections. The contractor conducting this information collection is ICF International, Inc. ICF’s IRB will review and approve this data collection prior to fielding. ICF’s IRB meets all federal requirements in 45 CFR 46, is registered with the Office for Human Research Protections, and has a Federalwide Assurance (FWA00002349). NHTSA will use the information from this collection to produce a technical report that presents the results of the survey, as well as a dataset that does not contain any personally identifiable information (PII). The technical report will provide aggregate (summary) statistics and tables as well as the results of statistical analyses of the information, but it will not include any PII. The technical report will be shared with State highway safety offices, local governments, policymakers, researchers, educators, advocates, and others who may wish to use the data from this survey to support their work. NHTSA estimates the total annual burden associated with this ICR to be 2,046 hours and $0.

Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety Field Operational Test (DADSS-FOT)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval of a renewal with modification of currently approved information collection request (ICR) titled “Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety - Field Operational Test (DADSS-FOT).” This ICR is for a voluntary information collection to evaluate breath-based sensor technologies that are integrated into research vehicles. The purpose of the information collection is to collect information to provide a greater understanding of the performance of both breath- and touch-based sensors with actual dosed passengers using the technology under varying environmental conditions. Although the sensors will undergo significant laboratory testing, it is necessary to evaluate their function in real-world environmental conditions to ensure that they will be operational for all possible conditions. This ICR is for the collection of data from human subjects to allow NHTSA to perform real-world testing. The primary component of this information collection is the collection of sensor data during a Field Operational Test (FOT) involving human subjects; however, demographic information about participants and post-test information will be collected as well. The objectives of the FOT are to: (1) Determine the effectiveness of the DADSS sensors in a real-world driving environment; (2) Analyze DADSS breath- and touch-based sensors in real-world driving scenarios; and (3) Obtain technical data to further refine the DADSS Performance Specifications that will ultimately be used for system design and product development. Respondents are voluntary participants that will be accepted for inclusion based on a pre-screening interview to ensure they are able to consume alcohol. For the study, NHTSA intends to collect data from a total of 480 uniquely individual participants to collect a minimum of 312,000 data points through their participative rides/drives. NHTSA has already collected data from 62 participants and will need to collect data from an additional 418 individuals .. The respondent selection interviewing is a one-time data collection and the respondents have the opportunity to participate in the FOT up to 60 times within the study; however, for the 62 individuals that have participated, they have participated an average of 2.13 times. In accordance with DOT policy on research involving human subjects, this study has been reviewed and approved by a Health and Human Services-approved Institutional Review Board before data collection began. Recipients of the respondent information are the data analysts and researchers and the data are used initially to assess whether to include the respondent in the study and later to assess the functionality of the in-vehicle equipment. During the FOT, the only data collected from the human subjects will be measurement data from sensors on the vehicle, which will be recorded and used by the data analysts and researchers. This information collection is under request for extension and both the annual burden hours and the total annual burden cost have been revised based on the study experience up to August 31, 2021. The original ICR reported a total 2-year burden estimate of 115,830 hours (annual burden of 57,915 hours) and a total 2-year cost of $2,256,847.50 (annual cost of $1,128,423.75). These were estimates of maximum burden to the public based on the assumption that each individual participant would choose to participate the maximum 60 times. With adjustments made to time, response rate, and participation level, burden calculations have been updated. The burden is therefore no longer based on maximum participation of 60 times per individual participant, rather the average number of times individuals have chosen to participate thus far in data collection. The updated burden estimate is an annual burden of 3,249 hours. The annual burden cost associated with this ICR extension is zero other than the time spent participating.

2025 American Housing Survey (AHS)

Key Information

Abstract

This Information Collection Request includes the data collection instruments associated with the administration of the 2025 American Housing Survey. Increasing field costs and declining response rates have led HUD, starting in 2015, to adopt a continuous data collection model as opposed to the periodic 5-month data collection every other year. HUD believes continuous data collection will be more effective, primarily because: 1) it eliminates the expensive, time-consuming Regional Office AHS ramp-up costs every two years, and 2) it puts in place a more experienced AHS workforce with a constant workload. An added benefit is that we will be able to increase the frequency of national and metro AHS estimates, allowing for more current estimates and better comparability to other data sources which collect annual data (surveys such as the American Community Survey and key estimates such as homeownership/vacancy rates). The survey will continue to be longitudinal, interviewing the same housing unit every two years. The sample will be divided into 12 cohorts where each cohort has a 2-month data collection period. The 2025 data collection procedures and questionnaire content are similar to the 2023 survey with the following exceptions: * New data will be collected in the 2025 AHS core questionnaire with proposed questions about income (including non-relative income, real estate transactions, taxes and fees, home improvement, and recent movers). * Removal of Six Supplemental Modules from the 2023 AHS: The AHS design includes the inclusion of rotating supplemental topical modules to meet HUD’s needs for new topical content without increasing respondent burden. This approach was recommended by the National Research Council’s 2008 report Rebuilding the Research Capacity at HUD. With this approach, topical modules from the previous year of the AHS are removed and replaced with new content. For this reason, the Power Outage, Heat Risk, Healthy Homes, Housing Insecurity, Urbanization, and First-Generation Owners supplemental modules will not be included in the 2025 survey. * Reinstatement of Home Accessibility and Arts and Culture Supplemental Modules: The Arts and Culture module, last fielded in 2015, will be administered to half of the sample. The Home Accessibility module, last fielded in 2019, will be administered to the full sample. * Introduction of Three New Supplemental Modules: To continue the strategy of supplemental modules to minimize respondent burden and satisfy widening needs for data content, three new supplemental modules have been added to the survey – Climate Risk and Insurance, Accessory Dwelling Units, and Housing Costs Roster. These modules collect data on the prevalence of climate risks, adaption to climate risks, and insurance, the prevalence of accessory dwelling units, and contributions of household members to rent/mortgage and utilities payments. Please refer to Section 2 (Needs and Uses) for more information on these modules and to the attached items booklet for the specific questions in these modules and the rest of the AHS questionnaire. * Demographic Questions on Sexual Orientation: Sexual Orientation (SO) Self-Report Questions will be asked of all adult respondents. Test of Proxy Questions on Sexual Orientation: The respondent will be asked Sexual Orientation (SO) Proxy Questions for all adult household members in 2023 AHS sample to test item nonresponse.

Standards for Success Reporting

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for the continued clearance of data collection and reporting requirements to enable the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Office of Business Transformation (OBT) to better assess the effectiveness of discretionary-funded programs included in this information collection request (ICR). The discretionary-funded programs included in this ICR are the Multifamily Housing Service Coordinator Grant Program, the Multifamily Housing Budget-Based Service Coordinator Program, and the Resident Opportunity and Self Sufficiency Service Coordinator Grant Program (ROSS). This proposed collection, titled Standards for Success, has three key tenets which vastly improve data collection and reporting for participating programs. First is the standardization of data collection and reporting requirements across programs which increases data comparability and utilization. Second is the ability to report on measurable outcomes and aligning them with higher-level agency objectives. And third is the collection of record-level data, instead of aggregate data. Collecting de-identified data at the level of the service recipient allows for more meaningful analysis, improved management, and the ability to demonstrate the progress and achievements of the funding recipients and the programs. Standards for Success accepts data submission by direct data input through the HUD-funded GrantSolutions online data collection and reporting tool (OLDC) and by data file upload, accommodating file formats in Microsoft Excel or Extensible Markup Language (XML).

Moving to Work Demonstration

Key Information

Abstract

MTW is a long term demonstration program authorized in 1996 and recently expanded in 2016, which permits select PHAs to implement certain programmatic flexibilities to address local needs. PHAs submit application materials to HUD requesting authorization and describing their plans to implement MTW flexibilities. All PHAs are required to submit annual plans to HUD, however, PHAs with a Moving to Work demonstration designation, (39 at the time of submission of this request) must submit an Annual MTW Plan and Annual MTW Report in lieu of the standard 5-year plan and annual update. In 2013, revisions were made to this 50900 form to streamline the process of Agencies submitting required Annual Plan and Report Data to HUD so that the Department is able to better respond to Congressional and other inquiries regarding outcome measures obtained and promising practices learned throughout the duration of the demonstration. This 2017 revision of the Form makes a variety of minor refinements to improve clarity and usability, based on the experiences of HUD and PHAs with the form over the last 3 years.

Public Housing Agency (PHA Plan)

Key Information

Abstract

The content in the MTW Supplement is tied directly to the MTW Operations Notice, which establishes requirements for the implementation and continued operation of the MTW Demonstration Program for the 199 Expansion MTW Agencies. The MTW Operations Notice was published in the Federal Register several times for public comment. It was first published in the Federal Register on January 23, 2017 (82 FR 8056) for a 60-day public comment period, which was extended in May 2017. The MTW Operations Notice was published in the Federal Register on October 5, 2018 (83 FR 50387) for a 45-day public comment period. After comments were received, revisions to the MTW Operations Notice were completed and the final MTW Operations was published in the Federal Register on August 28, 2020 (85 FR 53444). The PHA Plan data collection, including the MTW Supplement, was published for the 60-day public comment period in the Federal Register on October 9, 2018 (83 FR 50676). Since the content in the MTW Supplement must mirror what is in the MTW Operations Notice, HUD could not finalize the MTW Supplement until after the final MTW Operations Notice was finalized in August 2020. Once this occurred, the MTW Supplement form was updated to incorporate public comments and to ensure that it mirrors the final MTW Operations Notice, went through the required PIH and departmental clearance, and is now being submitted to OMB for publication for the 30-day Federal Register notice. The first cohort of agencies will be announced in January 2021 and will need to be able to utilize the MTW Supplement to report to HUD what waivers and activities they wish to initially implement. Thus, it is important that the MTW Supplement be published for the 30-day public comment period, so that we can receive comments and finalize the form by the time the Expansion MTW Agencies are designated.

Report of Railroad Trespasser Form

Key Information

Abstract

Trespasser deaths on railroad rights-of-way and other railroad property are the leading cause of fatalities attributable to railroad operations in the United States. To address this serious issue, the railroad industry, governments (Federal, State, and local), and other interested parties must know more about the individuals who trespass. Due to the lack of available root cause data, FRA proposes to collect data from law enforcement agencies to develop general descriptions of the root causes of trespassing. This will allow FRA and other interested parties, such as Operation Lifesaver, to target audiences with appropriate education and enforcement campaigns to reduce the resulting annual number of injuries and fatalities. Completion and submission of form FRA F 6180.178 is required for law enforcement agencies, in order to obtain and/or receive FRA’s Railroad Trespassing Enforcement Grant. For law enforcement agencies not receiving FRA’s Railroad Trespassing Enforcement grants, completion and submission of this form is voluntary. There is a requirement for recordkeeping.

Arrival and Departure Record and Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA)

Key Information

Abstract

Form I-94 (Arrival/Departure Record) and Form I-94W (Nonimmigrant Visa Waiver Arrival/Departure) are used to document a traveler's admission into the United States. These forms include date of arrival, visa classification and the date the authorized stay expires. The forms are also used by business employers and other organizations to confirm legal status in the United States. The Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) applies to aliens traveling to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) and requires that VWP travelers provide information electronically to CBP before embarking on travel to the United States.Emergency Justfication:CBP is implementing a new capability within the CBP GO mobile application, or any successor mobile application, to allow aliens who are subject to I-94 requirements, and who are departing the United States, to voluntarily provide biographic data, facial images, and geolocation to provide evidence of that departure. This collection is a part of CBP’s critical efforts in fulfilling DHS’s statutory mandate to collect biometric information from departing aliens and CBP’s plans to fully automate I-94 information collection.2 This capability will close the information gap on alien entries and exits by making it easier for aliens subject to I-94 requirements to report their exit to CBP after their departures from the United States. It will also create a biometrically confirmed, and geolocation confirmed, and thereby more accurate, exit record for such aliens leaving the United States. Aliens subject to I-94 requirements may use the application to voluntarily submit their biographic information from their passports, or other travel documents after they have exited the United States.

Abstract

The registration and fingerprinting requirements currently appear in sections 1301-1306 of Title 8 of the United States Code. With limited exceptions, aliens above the age of 14 who remain in the United States for 30 days or longer, must apply for registration and be fingerprinted before the expiration of the 30 days, unless previously registered and fingerprinted under other provisions of immigration law. 8 U.S.C. 1302. Similarly, parents and guardians must ensure that their children below the age of 14 are registered. 8 U.S.C. 1302(b). Within 30 days of reaching his or her 14th birthday, the alien child must “apply in person for registration and to be fingerprinted.” 8 U.S.C. 1302(b). Implementing regulations can be found at 8 C.F.R. part 264. USCIS uses the electronic version of Form G-325R, Biographic Information (Registration), for the purpose of registration of unregistered aliens present in the United States in accordance with 8 U.S.C. 1302.Emergency Justfication:On January 20, 2025, the President issued Executive Order (EO) 14159, Protecting the American People Against Invasion, 90 FR 8443 (Jan. 29, 2025). Specifically, Section 7 of the Executive Order, Identification of Unregistered Illegal Aliens, directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to take appropriate action to ensure that all unregistered aliens in the United States comply with the statutory registration and fingerprinting requirement and to immediately publicize information about the legal obligations. Execution of the EO and compliance with the registration and fingerprinting requirement under the INA and 8 CFR part 264 requires USCIS to create a new collection of information Form G-325R, Biographic Information (Registration), for the purpose of allowing previously unregistered aliens to electronically apply for registration and fingerprinting in the United States. By adding the ability for unregistered aliens to use the USCIS online account to apply to meet their registration obligations, USCIS should be able to streamline processing efficiencies for this population to enhance security screening and promptly identify threats. associated with registration.
