Certification of Identity Common Form (Form BC-300)

Key Information

Abstract

The information requested on the Certification of Identity (Form BC-300), and the associated evidence, is collected under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552, and the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. § 552a. Per 28 C.F.R. §16.41(d), the request for access to records must contain a verification of identity, including the requestor’s full name, current address, and date and place of birth, and be signed under penalty of perjury or notarized. Requests for the release of records will not be processed if the Census Bureau cannot confirm identity based on the information provided. Therefore, this information collection is necessary to prevent unauthorized disclosure of records of individuals maintained by the Census Bureau and allows parties to disclose or release their records to an attorney, accredited representative, qualified organization, or other third party.

Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) Competitive Grant Project Information

Key Information

Abstract

This is the renewal of a collection to solicit the data necessary to help the FAA evaluate and select airport terminal and tower projects for funding under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) (P.L. 117-58), signed on November 15, 2021. IIJA provides annual funding of about $1,020,000,000 annually for these programs through FY 2026. Additionally, the IIJA directs funds that are unobligated at the end of the fourth fiscal year after being first made available under the Airport Infrastructure Grant (AIG) program be converted to a new competitive funding program for the final fiscal year of availability. Of the amounts converted, the first $100,000,000 is set aside to augment the IIJA’s FAA Contract Tower program. Funds exceeding $100,000,000 are then awarded through the new competitive grant program, called the AIG Funding Reallocation (AFR) program. Airport owners and managers (sponsors) who elect to compete for funding and obtain benefits from the IIJA Airport Terminal and Tower Programs will submit project information. The information collected is based on grant considerations outlined in the IIJA and allows the FAA to evaluate and distribute IIJA funds to address aging infrastructure at the nation’s airports. Some 3,075 airports are eligible to participate in the IIJA Airport Terminal Program and about 170 for the Tower Program, though not all will have a project that fits the criteria outlined in the IIJA.

Motor Carrier Records Change Form

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection is mandatory reporting for which the frequency is on an as needed basis. The information is collected from for-hire motor carriers, brokers and freight forwarders who are required to notify the Office of Registration and Safety Information located within DOT’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), when they change the name or address of their company. The name change request may be filed online through the Licensing and Insurance website, or companies may fax or mail the form requesting either name or address changes. Carriers may also, by use of this form, request reinstatement of a revoked operating authority either online or via fax. The purpose of the collection is to enable FMCSA to maintain up-to-date records which will allow the agency to recognize the entity in question in case of enforcement actions, or other procedures required to ensure the carrier is fit, willing and able to provide for-hire transportation services. The collection will also enable entities whose authority has been revoked to undergo the process to resume operations, if they are not otherwise blocked from doing so. This multi-purpose form simplifies the process of gathering the information needed to process the entities’ requests in a timely manner, with the least amount of effort for all parties involved. The information reported to and collected by FMCSA is motor carrier identification information (such as legal names, DOT numbers, etc.), phone numbers, address changes, changes in ownership, management, or control of the company, reinstatement of operating authority information, and payment information. This ICR renewal has a program adjustment of an increase of 37,551 responses and 9,387 burden hours. The increase is due to the increase in the number of respondents who completed Form MCSA-5889 from 2020-2022.

Capital Construction Fund Agreement, Certificate Family of Forms, and Deposit/Withdrawal Report

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for extension of a currently approved information collection. The information collection previously listed as ‘CCF Family of Forms’ was broken out into five separate collections in order to provide more granularity into the collection. These are not new requirements and do not change the information collected, rather they provide greater detail into the use and frequency of the information collected. NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) established the Capital Construction Fund (CCF) tax deferral program to allow fishermen to more quickly save for vessel acquisition, construction, or reconstruction. The information collected by NMFS involves applying for and entering into a formal agreement to defer taxable income, enroll vessels eligible for deposits, register objectives planned under the agreement, make deposits within the regulatory limits, withdraw funds for eligible purposes, certify total costs at completion, show the current depreciable tax basis in a fishing vessel, and verify proper reduction of the tax basis. The CCF program is a tax deferral program, not a tax free benefit, and the data collection allows for the enrollment, operation, and essential tax recapture required by the program.

National Survey of the Use of Booster Seats

Key Information

Abstract

The National Survey of the Use of Booster Seats (NSUBS) is a voluntary collection of restraint use information for children under 13. NSUBS is a biennial collection. Data collectors observe restraint use for all passenger vehicle occupants included in the survey and for those vehicles that voluntarily participate, the data collectors conduct a brief interview with the vehicle driver or other knowledgeable adult to determine the age, height, weight, race, and ethnicity of the child occupants and age of the driver. Data collectors do not collect personal identifying information such as names, addresses, phone number of participating vehicle occupants. Data collectors use paper forms to collect information at fast food restaurants, gas stations, day care centers, and recreation centers where vehicles are mostly likely to have child occupants. The contractor supplies an electronic file of the data collected to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The contractor creates replicate weights, derives analytic variables, and adds auxiliary information on state laws. NHTSA uses the NSUBS data to estimate booster seat use among 4- to 7-year-old children. It also estimates restraint use for all children under 13, race and ethnicity breakouts of restraint use among all occupants in a vehicle, and estimates the extent to which children are “prematurely transitioned” from one restraint type to others that are inappropriate for their age as well as height and weight. The survey produces biennial estimates of: • Restraint use by Age Group • Restraint use by Weight Group • Restraint use by Height Group • Restraint use by Office of Management and Budget (OMB) categories for Race/Ethnicity NHTSA also asks the adult drivers their age to analyze the impact of driver age on driver seat belt use and child restraint use. NHTSA will tabulate the survey data, analyze the results, and publish the data in technical reports. NHTSA plans to release the results and the electronic file of the data collected to the public. NHTSA uses the NSUBS information to design outreach programs to help ensure that more of the nation’s children are using restraints that will protect them in motor vehicle crashes. The survey data will allow programs to better reach the caretakers whose children are unrestrained or not using the best restraint choice for their children’s sizes. The findings may also be of interest to State legislatures wanting to strengthen their child restraint laws by enacting mandatory or enhanced booster seat use provisions. The survey was previously approved as OMB Control No. 2127-0644 (current expiration date: 06/30/2022). The new collection will increase the number of respondents from 4,800 drivers to 5,300 drivers based on the average number of drivers interviewed over the last three surveys. This increases the burden hours by 36 hours (from 340 hours to 376 hours). NHTSA continues to estimate that there are no costs associated with the information collection.

Mandatory Toy Safety Standards: Requirements for Neck Floats

Key Information

Abstract

The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) mandates that ASTM F963 shall be a mandatory toy safety standard. This toy safety standard sets forth only minimal labeling requirements for aquatic toys such as neck floats. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) proposes to establish new performance and revised labeling requirements to address potentially deadly hazards associated with neck floats. The Commission is also amending CPSC’s list of notice of requirements (NORs) to include neck floats. This proposed rule contains information collection requirements that are subject to public comment and review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

Applications and Reporting Requirements for Incidental Taking of Marine Mammals by Specified Activities Under the Marine Mammal Protection Act.

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for an extension and revision of an existing information collection under OMB Control No. 0648-0151. NMFS does not anticipate that the extension will substantially add to the burden to individual private applicants for incidental take authorizations under the existing Control Number. The main difference we expect related to this extension is that there will be a smaller number of applicants/respondents than accounted for in the existing OMB Control Number. This renewal removes the passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and protected species observer (PSO) burden estimates. The Office of Protected Resources determined that those activities do not fall under the burden associated with this collection. The Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 (MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et. seq.) prohibits the “take” of marine mammals unless otherwise authorized or exempted by law. Among the provisions that allow for lawful take of marine mammals, sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the MMPA direct the Secretary of Commerce to allow, upon request, the incidental, but not intentional, taking of small numbers of marine mammals by U.S. citizens who engage in a specified activity (other than commercial fishing), within a specified geographical region if, after notice and opportunity for public comment, we find that the taking will have a negligible impact on the affected species or stock(s) and will not have an immitigable adverse impact on the availability of the species or stock(s) for subsistence uses (where relevant). NMFS also must set forth the permissible methods of taking; other means of effecting the least practicable adverse impact on the species or stock and its habitat (mitigation); and requirements pertaining to the monitoring and reporting of such taking. Issuance of an incidental take authorization (Authorization) under MMPA section 101(a)(5)(A) (through issuance of a Letter of Authorization (LOA) following issuance of incidental take regulations) or 101(a)(5)(D) (through issuance of an Incidental Harassment Authorization (IHA)) requires three sets of information collection: (1) a complete application for an Authorization, as set forth in NMFS’ implementing regulations at 50 CFR 216.104, which provides the information necessary to make the required statutory determinations, including estimates of take and an assessment of impacts on the affected species and stocks; (2) information relating to required monitoring; and (3) information related to required reporting. As required by the MMPA, these collections of information enable NMFS to: (1) prospectively evaluate the proposed activity’s impact on marine mammals; (2) arrive at the appropriate determinations required by the MMPA and other applicable laws prior to issuing the Authorization; and (3) monitor impacts of activities for which Authorizations have been issued to determine if predictions regarding impacts on marine mammals remain valid.

Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) Decision Appeal Form

Key Information

Abstract

The Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-163) enacted 38 U.S.C. 1720G, which directed the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to establish a Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) and a Program of General Caregiver Support Services (PGCSS). VA’s regulations implementing PCAFC and PGCSS are in 38 CFR Part 71. Both programs are managed by VA’s Caregiver Support Program (CSP) Office. On June 06, 2018, the President signed into law the John S. McCain III, Daniel K. Akaka, and Samuel R. Johnson VA Maintaining Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks Act of 2018 or the VA MISSION Act 2018 (P.L. 115-182). The VA MISSION Act of 2018 expanded the PCAFC to Family Caregivers of eligible veterans of all eras in a phased approach, established new benefits for Primary Family Caregivers of eligible veterans, and made other changes affecting program eligibility and VA’s evaluation of PCAFC applications. Since program inception, Veterans and caregivers who disagree with a PCAFC decision were afforded the right to appeal through the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Clinical Appeals Process. On February 19, 2019, VA implemented the Veterans Appeals Improvement and Modernization Act of 2017 (AMA), which significantly changed the VA benefits appeals process. AMA appeal and review processes are available for PCAFC decisions issued on or after February 19, 2019. A 2021 Court ruling in the case of Jeremy Beaudette & Maya Beaudette v. Denis McDonough, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, changed the appeal and review options available to individuals who have received a PCAFC decision and disagree with that decision. Consequently, VA expanded options available to Veterans and caregivers who seek review of or to appeal a PCAFC decision to include decision dating back to May 2011. As part of VA’s operational plan to implement the Beaudette decision, including to address appeals of decisions prior to February 19, 2019, a separate appeals process (legacy)is used to appeal to the Board regarding PCAFC decisions issued before February 19, 2019, and back to May 2011. VA initially developed two forms, 10-306 and 10-307, which previously were approved by OMB for a PRA clearance in 2022. VA Form 10-306, Request for Information About Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) Decisions, is necessary to provide a means for claimants to request information about any PCAFC decision VA issued to them, regardless of when such decision was made. Veterans and caregivers may use this form to acquire information about past PCAFC decisions to determine whether they wish to pursue an appeal to the Board or request review. VA Form 10-307, Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) Notice of Disagreement (NOD), was specific to PCAFC decisions rendered prior to February 19, 2019. As of now, the majority of individuals for whom VA Form 10-307 is applicable have submitted their requests, and the number of VA Form 10-307 submissions has consistently diminished over time. With forthcoming changes to CSP regulations, the division of cohorts will be eliminated, making VA Form 10-307 no longer applicable and obsolete. Therefore, CSP is requesting the discontinuation and removal of VA Form 10-307 from this collection. Note: CSP will continue to appropriately process all received VA 10-307 after sunsetting.

Medicare Prescription Drug Inflation Rebate Program: Sections 11101 and 11102 of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) (CMS-10930)

Key Information

Abstract

The purpose of this ICR is for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to collect information to implement the Medicare Part D Drug Inflation Rebate Program as proposed in CY 2026 Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) proposed rule. Specifically, section 1860D 14B(b)(1)(B) of the Act requires that beginning with plan year 2026, CMS shall exclude from the total number of units for a Part D rebatable drug, with respect to an applicable period, those units for which a manufacturer provides a discount under the 340B Program. In the CY 2026 PFS proposed rule, CMS proposed to establish a 340B repository to receive voluntary submissions from covered entities of certain data elements from Part D 340B claims to allow CMS to assess such data for use in identifying units of Part D rebatable drugs for which a manufacturer provides a discount under the 340B Program in a future applicable period. CMS proposed to allow covered entities to submit data on units of Part D rebatable drugs for which a manufacturer provides a discount under the 340B Program beginning in 2026 to begin testing the usability of the 340B repository. This ICR will enable CMS to collect information to implement this voluntary collection.

Greater Atlantic Region Logbook Family of Forms

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for extension of an approved information collection. The Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries Office (GARFO), under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) and the Atlantic Coastal Fisheries Cooperative Management Act (Atlantic Coastal Act), the New England Fishery Management Council (the Council), and the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (the Commission) are responsible for conservation and management of marine fishery resources off the east coast. NMFS enacts complementary regulations to Council and Commission actions. The Magnuson-Stevens Act requires that conservation and management measures must prevent overfishing while achieving, on a continuing basis, the optimum yield from each fishery. These measures must be based on the best scientific information available. The Atlantic Coastal Act oversees coastal fishery resources that migrate, or are widely distributed, across the jurisdictional boundaries of two or more of the Atlantic States and Federal Government. The information collected using the logbook family of forms will be used by several offices of NMFS, the U.S. Coast Guard, the Councils and Commission, and state fishery agencies. The information is used to develop, implement, and monitor fishery management strategies. Logbook data serve as inputs for a variety of uses, including biological analyses and stock assessments, regulatory impact analyses, quota allocation selections and monitoring, economic profitability profiles, trade and import tariff decisions, allocation of grant funds among states, and analysis of ecological interactions among species. NMFS would be unable to fulfill the majority of its scientific research and fishery management missions without these data. During the renewal of collection 0648-0212, our program office was informed that the changes published into 2018 (50 CFR Part 48) did not reflect on the current ICs. While we are still requesting an extension we also request the following revisions to accurately display the modifications of said collection. Regulatory changes from 2018 resulted in the elimination of the paper-based shellfish logbook, which integrated into the electronic VTR data collection program and the elimination of Tilefish IVR reporting. (Question 12 table) Rule 0648-BL61 integrated the Lobster VTR into the overall VTR information collection for all species. Previous information collection “Herring” was renamed to “Daily Catch Reports” (DCR) to accurately count for multiple species that are required to submit in the daily catch report.

Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) Questionnaire

Key Information

Abstract

HUD has implemented a department-wide supply chain risk management program. HUD will collect information to evaluate the supply chain risk management practices of its current and prospective vendors. In compliance with Executive Order 14017, America’s Supply Chains; Executive Order 14028, Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity; the Federal Acquisition Supply Chain Security Act (FASCSA); and incorporating guidance published in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication (SP) 800–161, Cyber Security Supply Chain Risk Management Practices for Systems and Organizations; the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has implemented a Department-wide supply chain risk management (SCRM) program. This initiative will include updated and applicable policy, procedures, and documentation that present the structure of the HUD SCRM Program and establish the guidance for performing vendor supply chain risk assessments. The HUD SCRM Program enables the Department to implement executive orders, legal authorities, regulatory orders, and federal guidance which includes a consistent process for identifying supply chain risk in current and future vendor relationships. As a part of this Program, HUD will collect information to evaluate the supply chain risk management practices of its current and prospective vendors through a HUD SCRM Questionnaire.

Notice of Employee Rights under National Labor Relations Act Complaint Process

Key Information

Abstract

Executive Order 13496 (E.O. 13496), signed on January 30, 2009, requires certain Government contractors and subcontractors to post notices informing their employees of their rights as employees under Federal labor laws. Regulation 29 CFR § 471.11 provides for the Department's acceptance of written complaints alleging that a contractor doing business with the Federal government has failed to post the notice required by E.O. 13496. The regulation establishes that no special complaint form is required, but that complaint must be in writing. In addition, written complaints must contain certain information, including the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the complaint, and the name and address of the Federal contractor alleged to have violated this rule. This regulation also establishes that written complaints may be submitted either to OFCCP or OLMS.
