This clearance
is to allow the ICC time to procede in its rulemaking (NPRM
published in March 1981) to consider changes to reporting
requirements to reduce compliance burdens. The clearance date will
permit the ICC to phase-in the new forms. When the package is
resubmitted, the ICC should more clearly explain the need for
Federal use of the information by citing some illustrativ examples.
The ICC also should consider ways to lower the estimated reporting
burden of 121 hours per respondent.
