Abstract

CMS is permitted to disclose data files for approved research purposes in compliance with 45 45 CFR 164.512(i). Researchers requesting research identifiable files (RIF) must, as part of the request process, complete a research request packet that provides CMS with information pertaining to the research study, including describing how the research results/findings will be disseminated, as well as the data files being requested. Should CMS approve the research request, the data requestor enters into a Data Use Agreement (DUA). This data collection is necessary to ensure that disclosures of data for research purposes comply with federal laws and regulations as well as CMS policy. Researchers requesting RIF files also must complete a Data Management Plan Self-Attestation Questionnaire (DMP SAQ). A DMP SAQ is required each time a DUA is established. Both the DUA and the DMP SAQ forms are valid for one year from the date of approval and are renewable at expiration. If the environment described in a DMP SAQ is the same for multiple DUAs from a single organization, the same DMP SAQ can be used across the DUAs, provided it has not expired. The DMP SAQ is a technical, evidence basedevidence-based questionnaire that DUA users must complete as part of the data request packet. The DMP SAQ will enable CMS to evaluate researcher data systems to ensure that CMS data are adequately secured and appropriately protected, as per the Privacy Act and the HIPAA Privacy Rule. The DMP SAQ also allows CMS to measure compliance through the implementation of security and privacy controls as outlined in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-53 and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Information Security and Acceptable Risk Safeguards (ARS). The second component of the DMP SAQ is to provide ongoing oversight. All organizations will be subject to routine audits of the environments used to store and process CMS data, as described in their organizational-level DMP SAQ.

Abstract

Commission regulation § 1.73 which applies to clearing members that are futures commission merchants and Commission regulation § 23.609 which applies to clearing members that swap dealers and major swap participants, require clearing members to monitor and collect information to prevent risks to the financial markets. Specifically, these provisions require these clearing members to have procedures to limit the financial risks they incur as a result of clearing trades and to maintain sufficient liquid resources to meet the obligations that arise. Each of these items has been observed by Commission staff as an element of an existing sound risk management program at these registered entities. The Commission regulations require each clearing member to establish written procedures to comply and to keep records documenting its compliance. The regulations are an important part of the Commission’s regulatory program. The information required to be collected and preserved is used by representatives of the Commission to ensure compliance with the CEA and applicable Commission regulations.

Abstract

This ICR estimates the recordkeeping and third-party response burden of paperwork activities that covers the information collection requirements contained in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) regulations at 40 CFR Part 170. These requirements were updated in a 2015 Final Rule (80 FR 67495, November 2, 2015) that amended 40 CFR Part 170. Prior to the regulatory update, the WPS regulations already had provisions for training and notification of pesticide-related information for workers who enter pesticide-treated areas after pesticide application to perform crop-related tasks, as well as for handlers who mix, load, and apply pesticides. Agricultural employers and commercial pesticide handling establishments are responsible for providing required training, notifications and information to their employees to ensure worker and handler safety. The changes to the regulation in 2015 improved protections and included revisions to many of the provisions as well as the addition of new requirements. The WPS regulation now includes expanded and more frequent training for workers and handlers, improved posting of pesticide-treated areas, additional information for workers before they enter a pesticide-treated area while a restricted entry interval is in effect, access to more general and application-specific information about pesticides used on the establishment, and recordkeeping of training to improve enforceability and compliance.

Abstract

Regulations 23.701 and 23.704 establish reporting requirements that are mandated by Section 4s(l) of the CEA, which states that SDs and MSPs must notify their counterparties of the right to have their initial margin segregated and to maintain the confirmations and elections related to such notices as business records. The reporting and recordkeeping requirements are necessary to implement the objectives of Section 4s(l). The data required to be compiled and maintained pursuant to regulation 23.701 and 23.704 would be used by uncleared swap counterparties (and, in some instances, the CFTC and self-regulatory organizations). For example, the information received by uncleared swap counterparties pursuant to Regulation 23.701 would alert counterparties to their statutory right, if they so choose, to have funds or property used as margin in uncleared swaps transactions with SDs and MSPs kept segregated from the property of the SD or MSP. Likewise, the information provided would further alert counterparties of the need to request such segregation if they wish to exercise this right.
