Information Collection Request *Title:* Barges Carrying Bulk Hazardous Materials. *OMB Control Number:* 1625-0104. SUMMARY: This information is needed to ensure the safe shipment of bulk hazardous liquids in barges. The requirements are necessary to ensure that barges meet safety standards and to ensure that barge's crewmembers have the information necessary to operate barges safely. *Need:* Title 46 U.S.C. 3703 authorizes the Coast Guard to prescribe rules related to the carriage of liquid bulk dangerous cargoes. Title 46 CFR 151 prescribes rules for barges carrying bulk liquid hazardous materials. *Forms:* N/A. *Respondents:* Owners and operators of tank barges. *Frequency:* On occasion. *Hour Burden Estimate:* The estimated burden has increased from 28,958 hours a year to 40,307 hours a year. The change in burden is an ADJUSTMENT due to a change in the estimated annual number of new construction (n/c) tank barges. In the last ICR, the Coast Guard estimated about 160 n/c tank barges per year. In this ICR, the Coast Guard estimates about 282 n/c tank barges per year.
