Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act Programs, 25 CFR 900

Key Information

Abstract

The Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA), as authorized by 25 USC 450 et. seq., authorizes and directs the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) to contract or compact with, and fund Indian Tribes and Tribal organizations that choose to take over the operation of programs, services, functions and activities (PSFAs) that would otherwise be operated by the BIA. These PSFAs include programs such as law enforcement, social services, and tribal priority allocation programs. Congressional appropriations are divided among BIA and Tribes and Tribal organizations to pay for both the BIA’s direct operation of programs and for the operation of programs by Tribes and Tribal organizations through Self-Determination contracts and compacts. The regulations implementing ISDEAA are at 25 CFR 900. An Indian Tribe or Tribal organization is required to submit this information each time that it proposes to contract with BIA under the ISDEAA. The information collected is used by the BIA to determine applicant eligibility, evaluate applicant capabilities, protect the service population, safeguard Federal funds and resources, and permit the BIA to administer and evaluate Tribal ISDEAA contract programs.

Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) Flying Armed

Key Information

Abstract

In order to allow Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) to fly armed, TSA established a specialized screening process for Federal, State, local, and tribal LEO needing to access the sterile area of the airport when they are going to fly armed. To document such LEO movements, TSA’s specialized screening procedures require the LEO to complete TSA Form 413A, Checkpoint Sign-In Log. This real-time situational awareness is necessary in the event of a contingency on board the aircraft, such as but not limited to, a disruptive passenger, air piracy, or other threat to the safety and security of a commercial aircraft.

Risk-Based Asset Management Plan

Key Information

Abstract

Under 23 U.S.C. 119(e) and implementing regulations at 23 CFR part 515, State departments of transportation (State DOTs) are required to develop Risk-Based asset management plans (AMPs) for the National Highway System (NHS) to improve or preserve the condition of the assets and the performance of the NHS. As part of this requirement, each State DOT must annually submit information to FHWA that demonstrates that the State DOT has implemented an AMP that meets the requirements of 23 U.S.C. 119(e) and 23 CFR part 515, and every 4 years, each State DOT must submit its processes for the development of its AMP to FHWA for certification and recertification every four years following the year of initial certification (23 U.S.C. 119(e)(6)). Section 11105(3) of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Public Law 117-58) added a requirement that the required risk management and lifecycle cost analyses in AMPs consider extreme weather and resilience. A State DOT not in compliance with these requirements receives a penalty in the form of reduced Federal share for projects carried out under the National Highway Performance Program.

Austism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Research Portfolio Analysis, (NIMH)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a revision of a currently approved request where the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Office of National Autism Coordination (ONAC), on behalf of the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC), plans to continue conducting comprehensive portfolio analyses of major autism spectrum disorder (ASD) research funders. The purpose of the annual autism research portfolio analysis is to collect research funding data from U.S. and international ASD research funders, to assist the IACC in fulfilling the requirements of the Autism Collaboration, Accountability, Research, Education and Support (CARES) Act of 2024, and to inform stakeholders of the funding landscape and current directions for ASD research. These analyses will continue to examine the extent to which current funding and research topics align with the IACC Strategic Plan for Autism Research, Services, and Policy. The findings will also help to guide future funding priorities by outlining current gaps and opportunities in ASD research as well as serving to highlight research activities and progress.

Key Information

Abstract

On October 24, 2018, the Commission released a Report and Order, FCC 18-149 in GN Docket No. 17-158, adopting limited changes to the rules governing Priority Access Licenses (PALs) in the 3550-3700 MHz (3.5 GHz) band, including larger license areas, longer license terms, renewability, and performance requirements. The Commission anticipated that the targeted changes made in its 2018 Report and Order will spur additional investment and broader deployment in the band, promote robust and efficient spectrum use, and help ensure the rapid deployment of advanced wireless technologies—including 5G—in the United States. The rule changes and information requirements contained in the Commission’s previous 3.5 GHz band orders—the 2015 Report and Order, FCC 15-47, and 2016 Order on Reconsideration and Second Report and Order, FCC 16-55, both in GN Docket No. 12-354—are also approved under this Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number (3060-1211) and have not changed since OMB last approved them. Please see the previous OMB approvals for this collection to identify what else is covered by this collection. This supporting statement discusses only the performance requirements from the 2018 Report and Order. The Commission seeks approval from OMB for the information collection requirements contained in the 2018 Report and Order, FCC 18-149, stemming from the changes made to section 96.25(b) of it rules. The Commission revised section 96.25(b) to adopt performance requirements for Priority Access Licensees. Specifically, under the revised rule, Priority Access Licensees must provide substantial service in their license area by the end of the initial license term, i.e., at the end of 10 years. “Substantial service” is defined as service which is sound, favorable, and substantially above the level of mediocre service which might minimally warrant renewal. Failure by any licensee to meet this requirement will result in forfeiture of the license without further Commission action, and the licensee will be ineligible to regain it. Licensees shall demonstrate compliance with the performance requirement by filing a construction notification with the Commission in accordance with section 1.946(d) of the Commission’s rules. The licensee must certify whether it has met the performance requirement, and file supporting documentation, including description and demonstration of the bona fide service provided, electronic maps accurately depicting the boundaries of the license area and where in the license area the licensee provides service that meets the performance requirement, supporting technical documentation, any population-related assumptions or data used in determining the population covered by a service to the extent any were relied upon, and any other information the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau may prescribe by public notice. A licensee’s showing of substantial service may not rely on service coverage outside of the PAL Protection Areas of registered Citizens Broadband Radio Service Devices (CBSDs) or on deployments that are not reflected in Spectrum Access System (SAS) records of CBSD registrations.

Request for Details of Expenses (VA Form 21P-8049)

Key Information

Abstract

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), through its Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA), administers an integrated program of benefits and services established by law for veterans, service personnel, and their dependents and/or beneficiaries. 38 U.S.C. § 1522 Net Worth Limitation provides that VBA will deny or discontinue payment of pension benefits if it is reasonable that some part of the corpus of the claimant’s or beneficiary’s estate be consumed for his or her maintenance. VA codified this requirement at 38 CFR §3.274. VBA uses the information collected on this form as evidence of additional circumstances which may affect entitlement determinations pursuant to 38 U.S.C. § 1522. The information is used as a counterbalance to a claimant’s substantial estate and/or annual income.

Confidential Business Information Claims under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (Non-Substantive Change)

Key Information

Abstract

EPA is finalizing new and amended requirements concerning the assertion and maintenance of claims of business confidentiality (also known as Confidential Business Information or CBI) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), 15 U.S.C. 2601, et seq. The Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act, Pub. L. 114182 referred to in this Notice as Lautenberg), made significant amendments to TSCA including new provisions governing the assertion of CBI claims and requirements concerning Agency review and treatment of confidentiality claims. This final rule specifies procedures for submitting and supporting CBI claims in TSCA submissions, including substantiation requirements applicable at the time of submission, exemptions from the requirement to substantiate, electronic reporting enhancements (which include new electronic reporting requirements, as well as integration of TSCA requirements to provide certain certification statements, substantiation, and generic names when making confidentiality claims), and maintenance or withdrawal of confidentiality claims. The final rule also specifies Agency procedures for reviewing and communicating with TSCA submitters about confidentiality claims, including requirements for submitters to maintain contact information, procedures EPA will use to provide notices to submitters concerning their claims, and the manner in which EPA will notify submitters concerning the impending expiration of certain claims. The final rule includes new provisions, as well as amending and reorganizing existing provisions concerning assertion of confidentiality claims in order to conform to new requirements in Lautenberg. Most procedural requirements for asserting and maintaining a confidentiality claim are organized into a new part of the CFR, which would apply to any TSCA submission, except as modified by or elaborated on elsewhere in parts 704, 707, 716, 717, 720, 721, 723, 725, 770, or 790. The following submissions under TSCA will now have new or amended procedures for substantiated claims of confidentiality: TSCA Section 8(a); 40 CFR 704 TSCA Section 12(b) Notification of Export; 40 CFR 707.75(d) TSCA Section 8(d) Health and Safety Studies; 40 CFR 716.55(a) and (c) TSCA Section 8(c) Allegations of Adverse Effects; 40 CFR 717.19 TSCA Section 5 Premanufacture Notices (PMNs); 40 CFR 720.85 and 720.90 and 720 Subpart F TSCA Section 5 40 CFR 721 Significant New Use Rules (SNURs) TSCA Section 5 Polymer Exemption; 40 CFR 723.250(f); and Low Volume Exemptions 40 CFR 723.50 TSCA Section 5 microorganisms; 40 CFR 725 Subpart C TSCA Title VI Formaldehyde Emissions Standards for Composite Wood; 40 CFR 770 TSCA Section 4 Test Orders; 40 CFR 790

Formal Complaint Collection

Key Information

Abstract

Formal complaints are voluntary submissions and can be filed by any person at any time. They are typically submitted by either an individual or an organization. Formal complaints must meet the following requirements in 14 CFR § 13.5(b): (1) Be submitted in writing and identified as a complaint seeking an appropriate order or other enforcement action; (2) Be submitted to the Federal Aviation Administration, Office of the Chief Counsel; (3) Set forth the name and address, if known, of each person who is the subject of the complaint, with the specific statute, rule, regulation, or order violated; (4) Contain a concise but complete statement of the facts relied upon to substantiate each allegation; (5) State the name, address, telephone number, and email of the person filing the complaint; and (6) Be signed by the person filing the complaint or an authorized representative. Personnel in the FAA Office of the Chief Counsel, Enforcement Division (“FAA Enforcement Division”) receive and review each submission to determine if it complies with § 13.5(b). If it complies, the FAA Enforcement Division sends a copy of the complaint to all the subjects identified in the complaint. The subject of a complaint may file a written answer. The complaint and answer will often include supporting evidence (e.g., log book pages, pictures, emails). FAA reviews the complaint and answer provided. If FAA determines that reasonable grounds exist to support an investigation, it initiates an investigation and notifies the complainant and alleged violators of FAA’s determination in writing. The FAA Enforcement Division may initiate legal action if warranted by the investigation. If, however, FAA determines an investigation is not warranted, it dismisses the complaint, providing its rationale in writing to the complainant and alleged violators. The FAA Enforcement Division maintains the formal complaint docket and gives each complaint a unique docket number. The docket consists of the formal complaint, an answer (if any), and a response from the program office to the parties (i.e. complainant and subjects). If the complaint warrants no investigation, the program office’s response would be a letter advising the parties that there are no grounds for an investigation, and that the complaint is dismissed. If the complaint warrants an investigation, the program office would provide the parties a notification of the investigation and a report of the investigation. While the formal complaint docket is accessible to the public through a FOIA request, it is not accessible via the Internet. AGC-300 retains control over the information in the formal complaint docket and safeguards it from improper access, modification, and destruction, consistent with confidentiality, privacy, and electronic information requirements. The PII stored in the formal complaint docket is not disseminated to the public. Upon a member of the public’s request for materials from the docket, FAA would redact PII in accordance with the Privacy Act and other applicable law.

High Frequency Surveys Program Household Trends and Outlook Pulse Survey (March and May 2026)

Key Information

Abstract

The High-Frequency Surveys Program was established as a natural progression from the creation of the Household Pulse Survey. The Census Bureau developed the Household Pulse Survey to produce near real-time data in a time of urgent and acute need to inform federal and state action in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Changes in the measures over time provided insight into individuals’ experiences on social and economic dimensions during the period of the pandemic. It has evolved to include content on other emergent social and economic issues facing households and is designed to supplement the federal statistical system’s traditional benchmark data products with a new data source that provides relevant and timely information based on a high-quality sample frame, data integration, and cooperative expertise. In January 2025, the HPS and CHP will be relaunched as the Household Trends and Outlook Pulse Survey (HTOPS). The HTOPS will continue the strong tradition of the HPS by rapidly providing insight into national events that have social and economic impacts on U.S. households. It will complement more traditional federal surveys by producing data much closer to real time as the events develop and with the new longitudinal design, have the ability to track changes over time. Along with HPS content, the survey will enable the Census Bureau to address research and content development needs for its census and survey programs. The HTOPS will be one more tool among the Census Bureau's data collection efforts to provide the nation with quality, up-to-date information that informs our future.

Abstract

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is developing a web-based tool, Service Availability Prediction Tool (SAPT), to assist aircraft operators in achieving compliance with the requirements of 14 CFR §§ 91.103, 91.225, and 91.227. Depending on the specific nature of the operator’s request, varying levels of information are necessary for the FAA to process the requests made via this tool. The SAPT has three main tools: Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) SAPT, Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) SAPT, and ADS-B Deviation Authorization Pre-Flight Tool (ADAPT). The SAPT user may have to use one or more of these tools depending upon the nature of their request. The SAPT continually collects Global Positioning System (GPS) constellation status (e.g., GPS almanacs) and FAA surveillance status data (e.g., surveillance radars (SSR) and wide area multilateration (WAM)) in order to assess the accuracy and integrity of GPS, FAA backup surveillance availability, and other data in real time. This information is used to determine navigation or to support air traffic control services in terminal, en route airspace, and in airport surface operations. SAPT models the GPS system and matches it with certain specified GPS avionics performance characteristics to determine if there is sufficient position information predicted throughout the flight to use for navigation or surveillance.

Cable Carriage of Television Broadcast Stations: Section 76.56(a) Carriage of qualified noncommercial educational stations; Section 76.57, Channel positioning; Section 76.61(a)(1)-(2) Section 76.64...

Key Information

Abstract

Under Section 614 of the Communications Act and the implementing rules adopted by the Commission, commercial TV broadcast stations are entitled to assert mandatory carriage rights on cable systems located within the station’s television market. Under Section 325(b) of the Communications Act, commercial TV broadcast stations are entitled to negotiate with local cable systems for carriage of their signal pursuant to retransmission consent agreements in lieu of asserting must carry rights. This system is therefore referred to as “Must-Carry and Retransmission Consent.” Under Section 615 of the Communications Act, noncommercial educational (NCE) stations are also entitled to assert mandatory carriage rights on cable systems located within the station’s market; however, noncommercial TV broadcast stations are not entitled to retransmission consent.
