Abstract

The Organic Act of 1916 (NPS Organic Act) (54 U.S.C. §100101 et seq.) authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to develop regulations for national park units under the Department's jurisdiction. The Mining in the Parks Act (54 U.S.C. §100731 et seq.) directs the Secretary of the Interior to regulate all operations in park units in connection with the exercise of mineral rights on patented and unpatented mining claims. The National Park Service (NPS, we) regulations at 36 CFR Part 9, Subparts A and B, ensure that mining and non-Federal oil and gas activities on units of the National Park System are conducted in a manner consistent with preserving each unit for the benefit of present and future generations. Operators must submit specific information describing their future development plans, including steps to mitigate the impacts, and must not conduct any operations until they have NPS approval.

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Coke Oven Pushing, Quenching, and Battery Stacks (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart CCCCC) apply to pushing, soaking, quenching, and battery stacks on both existing and new coke oven batteries (coke plants) that are major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart CCCCC.

Abstract

This is to request the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) approval and three-year clearance for the information collection titled, “49 CFR Part 586, Replica Motor Vehicles.” (OMB Control No. 2127-New). Responding to the collection would be mandatory for all replica vehicle manufacturers and entities seeking to register as a replica vehicle manufacturer. Entities that manufacture replica vehicles or seek to register as a replica motor vehicle manufacturer would be required to respond to the information collection. This information collection involves reporting (registration and annual reporting) and disclosure (labeling) requirements. The registration requirement would be a one-time information collection unless the replica vehicle manufacturer seeks to change the replica motor vehicles it manufactures. The reporting requirement for replica manufacturers would be an annual requirement and the labeling requirements would be met, as required, for each replica vehicle the respondent manufactures. Respondents would provide information about the replica vehicles that they seek to manufacture in its registration requirements and information about the replica vehicles they manufactured in the previous calendar year in the annual reports. The temporary label would alert prospective and actual purchasers of replica vehicles that the vehicle does not conform to the Federal motor vehicle safety standards. NHTSA would receive the registrations and annual reports and replica vehicle consumers will receive the information provided on the temporary labels. This information collection is necessary for NHTSA’s implementation of the replica motor vehicle exemption program. NHTSA will use the registration information in determining whether to approve manufacturers to produce exempted vehicles and to ensure that the manufacturers and the vehicles they intend to manufacture qualify for the exemption program. The annual report will be used for tracking and enforcement purposes and to allow manufacturers to indicate whether they will continue manufacturing exempt replica vehicles. The temporary labels are intended to inform purchasers of replica vehicles that the vehicle does not conform to all Federal motor vehicle safety standards. NHTSA estimates the total burden for this new information collection to be 460 hours and $4,000.

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is to request approval from OMB for reinstatement with modification of the previously approved information collection titled “Consolidated Labeling Requirements for 49 CFR 565 and 567.” Responding to this collection is mandatory and required by 49 CFR Part 565 and Part 567 for manufacturers of motor vehicles. This ICR covers five information collections. There are four information collections under part 565 and one under part 567. The first information collection in part 565 is the requirement for manufacturers to affix vehicle identification numbers (VINs) to all motor vehicles they produce that conform to specific requirements in part 565. The second information collection in part 565 is the requirement to obtain a manufacturer identifier (or identifiers) to be used to uniquely identify the manufacturer within the VIN of each motor vehicle. The third information collection in part 565 is a requirement for foreign manufacturers to submit to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) their manufacturer identifiers (this requirement does not apply to U.S. manufacturers because NHTSA issues manufacturer identifiers to these manufacturers). The fourth information collection in part 565 is a requirement to submit VIN-deciphering information to NHTSA. There is one information collection under part 567, which requires manufacturers to affix to each vehicle they manufacture permanent labels certifying the compliance of the motor vehicle. The VIN assignment and certification labeling information collections are mandatory, as-needed disclosure requirements and the submission of VIN-deciphering information is a mandatory reporting requirement when a manufacturer creates a new VIN-deciphering scheme (including whenever a manufacturer needs to update or otherwise made amendment to a previously-submitted VIN-deciphering scheme). The information collection for the submission of information necessary to obtain a manufacturer identifier and the requirement to submit manufacturer identifiers to NHTSA (for foreign manufactures) is required on occasion, before a manufacturer starts producing motor vehicles, when a manufacturer starts producing a new vehicle type, or when a manufacturer that has a low-volume manufacturer identifier needs to obtain a high-volume identifier. When NHTSA last received approval for this information collection request, the agency estimated that the annual burden for the information collection request was 60,542 hours and $12,016,260. NHTSA now estimates the annual burden to be 164,016 hours and $33,686,400. This is an increase of 103,474 hours and $21,670,140. The increase is almost entirely a result of NHTSA changing the way it estimates burden. However, a small part of the increase is a result of the additional replica vehicle manufacturers expected to be producing motor vehicles.

Abstract

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP) included an unprecedented $800 million to support the specific needs of homeless children and youth via the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief – Homeless Children and Youth (ARP-HCY) Fund. State educational agencies (SEAs) and local educational agencies (LEAs) must use ARP-HCY funds to identify homeless children and youth, to provide homeless children and youth with wrap-around services to address the challenges of COVID-19, and to enable homeless children and youth to attend school and fully participate in school activities. This is a one-time grant program administered as part of the American Rescue Plan. The U.S. Department of Education (the Department) is seeking to understand how funds under this one-time grant program are being used. Specifically, the Department is seeking to learn about the distribution of ARP-HCY funds by SEAs, the characteristics of LEAs receiving funds, and the characteristics of LEAs who chose not to participate in the distribution of funds in each state. Additionally, the Department would like to gather information on how SEAs are using the funds that were set aside at the State level under this program. Information obtained in this survey will be used to inform technical assistance and support provided by the Department and the National Center for Homeless Education (NCHE), resources developed by NCHE, and further studies.
