An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public.
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.
Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify, or discontinue an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection,
supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.
The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after
which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.
ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.
Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

Abstract
This is an information collection request for a reinstatement with change for three years.

| 202508-2126-006 | Annual Report of Class I and Class II Motor Carriers of Property (OMB 2139-0004) | DOT/FMCSA | 2025-08-27 | Active | No material or nonsubstantive change to a currently approved collection
Annual Report of Class I and Class II Motor Carriers of Property (OMB 2139-0004)
Key Information
Abstract
The purpose of this request is to renew the currently OMB approved ICR. Form M is required to collect financial, operating, equipment, and employment data from individual motor carriers of property and household goods. All for-hire (common and contract) motor carriers of property with gross annual operating revenue of $3 million or more must file the annual report Form M. Form MP-1 is required to collect financial, operating, equipment, and employment data from individual motor carriers of passengers. All Class I for-hire motor carriers of passengers with gross annual operating revenues of $5 million or more are required to file the annual report Form MP-1. FMCSA has created electronic forms that may be prepared, signed electronically, and submitted to FMCSA via https://ask.fmcsa.dot.gov/app/ask/. However, forms can still be mailed to FMCSA. The data collected is available to users in its original form. The data are not used by the U.S. Department of Transportation, and, based on a comment to a proposed rule finalized on December 17, 2013 (78 FR 76241), the data are no longer used by trucking associations. The agency is also considering how it might remove some of this reporting requirement, consistent with statue, through a separate rulemaking, but the agency needs to renew the Collection of Information now while that process plays out. Insurance companies, consultants, law firms, academia, trade publications and others may use the data to assess industry growth and its impact on the economy, to identify industry changes that may affect national transportation, and to monitor company financial stability. In the past, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) used the data to inform the national annual input-output and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) estimates, to prepare estimates of industry output, and to provide details on inputs to supplement the information on motor carriers of passengers collected by the U.S. Census Bureau. FMCSA is not aware of anyone currently using this information. FMCSA does not use the information collected through either Form M or Form MP-1, nor does it enforce the filing requirements found in part 369. The Agency was not provided the necessary resources to administer the data collection and the financial reports are of little if any value in fulfilling the Agency’s safety mission. FMCSA estimates that the annual burden hour for this information collection has decreased by approximately 78 hours due to decreased Form M and Form MP-1 submissions received by the Agency between 2018 and 2020. |
