described in this notice to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
for approval of a new information collection. We published a Federal 
Register Notice with a 60-day public comment period on this information 
collection on December 12, 2018. We are required to publish this notice 
in the Federal Register by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

DATES: Please submit comments by April 24, 2019.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments within 30 days to the Office of 
Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 
725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503, Attention DOT Desk Officer. 
You are asked to comment on any aspect of this information collection,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: Drug Offender's Driver's License Suspension Certification.
    OMB Control Number: 2125-0579.
    Background: States are legally required to enact and enforce laws 
that revoke or suspend the drivers licenses of any individual convicted 
of a drug offense and to make annual certifications to the FHWA on 
their actions. The Department of Transportation's implementing 
regulations (23 CFR part 192) of 23 U.S.C. 159 require annual 
certifications by the Governors. In this regard, the State must submit 
by January 1 of each year either a written certification, signed by the 
Governor, stating that the State is in compliance with 23 U.S.C. 159; 
or a written certification stating that the Governor is opposed to the 
enactment or enforcement, and that the State legislature has adopted a 
resolution expressing its opposition to 23 U.S.C. 159.

[[Page 11159]]

    Beginning in Fiscal Year 2012, States' failure to comply by October 
1 of each fiscal year resulted in a withholding penalty of 8 percent 
from States' apportionments for the fiscal year. Any Funds withheld 
from a State under 23 U.S.C 159 shall not be available for 
apportionment to that State.
    Respondents: 50 States and the District of Columbia and Puerto 
Rico.
    Estimated Annual Burden Hours: Annual average of 5 hours for each 
respondent; 260 total annual burden hours.
    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 FHWA's performance; (2) the accuracy of 
the estimated burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to enhance the quality, 
usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4) ways that 
the burden could be minimized, including the use of electronic 
technology, without reducing the quality of the collected information. 
The agency will summarize and/or include your comments in the request 
for OMB's clearance of this information collection.
    Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 
35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1.48.

     Issued on: March 14, 2019.
