SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that FHWA has taken final
agency action by issuing approval for
the following highway project in the
State of Pennsylvania and State of
Maryland: U.S. 6219, Section 050
Transportation Improvement Project.
The purpose of the Project is to

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Motor Carrier Safety

[Docket No. FMCSA–2024–0313]

Agency Information Collection
Activities; Revision of a New
Information Collection Request:
National Consumer Complaint
Database

AGENCY:

In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
FMCSA announces its plan to submit
the Information Collection Request (ICR)
described below to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. This revision is for
the National Consumer Complaint
Database (NCCDB), which is an online
interface allowing consumers, drivers,
and others to file complaints against
unsafe and unscrupulous companies
and/or their employees, including
shippers, receivers, and transportation
intermediaries, depending on the type
of complaint. These complaints cover a
wide range of issues, including but not
limited to driver harassment, coercion,
movement of household goods, financial
responsibility instruments for brokers
and freight forwarders, Americans with
Disability Act compliance, electronic
logging devices, entry-level driver
training, Medical Review Officers, and
Substance Abuse Professionals (SAPs).
FMCSA requests approval to revise the
ICR titled ‘‘National Consumer
Complaint Database.’’ Four comments
were received in response to the 60-day
Federal Register notice.
DATES: Comments on this notice must be
received on or before July 7, 2025.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be
submitted within 30 days of publication
of this notice to www.reginfo.gov/
public/do/PRAMain. Find this
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open

Title: National Consumer Complaint
Database.
OMB Control Number: 2126–0067.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved ICR.
Respondents: Consumers, Drivers,
and Other Participants in the Motor
Carrier Industry.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
64,545.
Estimated Time per Response: 15
minutes.
Expiration Date: June 30, 2025.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
16,137. The annual burden was
calculated using the complaint volume
for each of the 12 categories of
complaint types.
Background
FMCSA maintains online information
and resources to assist consumers,
drivers, and others associated with the
motor carrier industry with
understanding their consumer
protection rights and, if necessary, with
filing a complaint with the Agency.
When effectively applied, this
information can contribute to safer
motor carrier operations on our nation’s
highways and improved consumer
protection. NCCDB complaint data also
provides FMCSA with statistical
information regarding motor carriers, in
particular the household goods moving
industry. NCCDB data is used to alert
consumers of those motor carriers with
a history of complaints related to
transporting household goods and helps
FMCSA provide guidance to the public
on how to avoid being victimized by
unscrupulous moving companies. The
data also allows FMCSA to identify
problematic motor carriers for
enforcement actions and promote
compliance. Motor carriers can use
NCCDB data to assist with complaint
reconciliation.
Since 2016, the NCCDB system has
been the central repository for motor
carrier complaints received by FMCSA;
however, responding to consumer
complaints has a long-standing Agency
regulatory history. Congress first
mandated a Safety Violation Hotline
Service in section 4017 of the
‘‘Transportation Equity Act of the 21st
Century,’’ (Pub. L. 105–178, 112 Stat.
107 (June 9, 1998)). Congress required
DOT to establish, maintain, and
promote the use of a nationwide tollfree telephone system to be used by
drivers of commercial motor vehicles
and others to report potential violations
of Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations.
The Motor Carrier Safety
Improvement Act of 1999 (Pub. L. 106–

VerDate Sep<11>2014

18:54 Jun 05, 2025

Jkt 265001

159, 113 Stat. 1748 (Dec. 9, 1999))
created FMCSA and expanded the
Safety Violation Hotline Service to
include a 24-hour operation and accept
consumer complaints on violations of
the commercial regulations previously
administered by the Interstate
Commerce Commission (i.e., household
goods and hostage load complaints).
The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and
Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A
Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU) (Pub.
L. 109–59, 119 Stat. 1144 (Aug. 10,
2005)) required FMCSA to create a
system, database, and procedures for
filing and logging consumer complaints
relating to household goods motor
carriers for the purpose of compiling or
linking complaint information gathered
by FMCSA and the States with regard to
such carriers. SAFETEA–LU also
required FMCSA to create procedures to
allow the public to have access, subject
to 5 U.S.C. 552(a), to aggregated
complaint information and a process for
carriers to challenge duplicate or
fraudulent information in the database.
Complaints are also accepted through
the NCCDB in connection with other
statutory mandates including the
protection of drivers against harassment
and coercion under sections 32301(b)
and 32911, respectively, of the Moving
Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century
Act (Pub. L. 112–141, 126 Stat. 405 (July
6, 2012)).
FMCSA is in the process of
modernizing its NCCDB complaint
program and system as well as
expanding the program alongside
process recommendations submitted by
the U.S. Government Accountability
Office (GAO) in September 2023. These
recommendations are being
implemented to expand and enhance
FMCSA’s ability to centralize the
collection, monitoring, and response to
consumer complaints about Agency
programs, to establish reasonable
procedures to provide timely responses
to consumers regarding their
complaints, and to share complaint
information with the public as well as
Federal and State agencies, as necessary
and applicable.
On January 3, 2025, FMCSA
published a notice in the Federal
Register (90 FR 382) announcing its
intention to submit this ICR to OMB for
renewal. The comment period closed on
March 4, 2025, and four comments were
received by that date.
One comment was received from the
American Trucking Associations (ATA)
and its Moving and Storage Conference
(MSC), expressing strong support for
modernizing the NCCDB. The
commenters emphasized the NCCDB’s
role in consumer protection and fraud

PO 00000

Frm 00102

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

24191

detection, endorsed GAO’s 2023
recommendations, and called for
improvements such as clearer branding,
enhanced staffing, and data analytics to
detect repeat offenders.
FMCSA reviewed the comment
submitted by ATA and MSC and finds
the recommendations and
considerations listed above are not
directly applicable to requesting OMB
review and approval of this ICR.
However, FMCSA will consider these
comments as it takes advantage of the
new, enhanced technology and system
design, adds fraud prevention and
security measures, simplifies a complex
application process, and improves data
quality and safety.
One comment was received from the
Transportation Intermediaries
Association (TIA), urging FMCSA to
modernize the NCCDB in light of rising
freight fraud, including identity theft
and double brokering. TIA supported
GAO’s recommendations and proposed
improvements such as automated
complaint tracking, expanded reporting
categories, and public access to
complaint outcomes.
FMCSA reviewed the comment
submitted by TIA and finds the
suggestions are not applicable to the
specific burden and information
collection elements under review by
OMB. However, FMCSA recognizes the
importance of addressing freight fraud
and will take these comments into
account during broader system
development and enforcement
improvement efforts.
One comment was received jointly
from the Truck Safety Coalition (TSC),
Citizens for Reliable and Safe Highways
(CRASH), and Parents Against Tired
Truckers (PATT), emphasizing the need
for the NCCDB to better support safety
enforcement. They cited increased truck
crash fatalities and recommended more
transparency, timely complaint
handling, and integration of safety
complaints into FMCSA oversight
activities.
FMCSA reviewed the comment
submitted by TSC, CRASH, and PATT.
While the concerns raised are not
directly applicable to the current ICR,
FMCSA will consider these
recommendations as it modernizes the
NCCDB to enhance public trust,
accountability, and carrier oversight.
One comment was received from the
Small Business in Transportation
Coalition (SBTC), criticizing FMCSA for
failing to follow through on its 2013
commitment to accept complaints
against unauthorized brokerage activity
through the NCCDB. SBTC noted that
FMCSA had pledged to gather such
complaints, collaborate with industry,

E:\FR\FM\06JNN1.SGM

06JNN1

24192

Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 108 / Friday, June 6, 2025 / Notices

and implement an enforcement
program—none of which have
materialized over the past decade. SBTC
urged current leadership to address this
oversight and implement long-promised
protections.
FMCSA reviewed the comment
submitted by SBTC and finds that the
concerns raised are not applicable to the
current request for OMB review and
approval of this ICR. However, FMCSA
acknowledges the issue of unregistered
brokerage activity and will consider the
comment as it evaluates broader
enforcement priorities and potential
enhancements to complaint intake and
tracking functions.
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including: (1)
whether the proposed collection is
necessary for the performance of
FMCSA’s functions; (2) the accuracy of
the estimated burden; (3) ways for
FMCSA to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the collected
information; and (4) ways that the
burden could be minimized without
reducing the quality of the collected
information.
