Download as PDF asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 48914 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 157 / Friday, August 14, 2015 / Notices incorporated in a Scoping Report and were considered in the preparation of this Draft EIS. Concerns raised during scoping include: potential degradation of surface water or groundwater quality and potential depletion to groundwater from pit lakes and/or water withdrawals for mine operations; potential impacts to mule deer habitat and migration corridors; potential impacts to greater sage-grouse habitat and strutting grounds; potential impacts to Wild Horse Herd Management Areas (HMAs), including herd access to surface water sources; potential air quality impacts from fugitive dust containing mercury, arsenic, or other contaminants; and potential impacts to visual resources including the visual setting of the Pony Express Trail and the Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge. The North and South Operations Area Facilities Reconfiguration Alternative was developed to help reduce impacts to mule deer, greater sage-grouse, and visual resources. The Western Redbird Modification Alternative was developed to help further reduce impacts to mule deer. Mitigation measures have also been included to show how impacts on resources could be minimized. The BLM has prepared the Draft EIS in conjunction with its five Cooperating Agencies: Nevada Department of Wildlife, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, State of Nevada Sagebrush Ecosystem Program, Eureka County, and White Pine County. Please note that public comments and information submitted, including names, street addresses, and email addresses of persons who submit comments will be available for public review and disclosure at the above address during regular business hours (7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.), Monday through Friday, except holidays.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of information are encouraged. Your comments should address one or more of the following four points: —Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Office of Justice Programs, including whether the information will have practical utility; —Evaluate the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; —Evaluate whether and if so how the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected can be enhanced; and —Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. Overview of this information collection: 1. Type of Information Collection: This is a new information collection, which requires the collection and identification of types of information that the Department does not currently collect. 2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Beneficiary Referral Request. 3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the Department sponsoring the collection: The applicable component within the Department of Justice is the Office of Justice Programs. 4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: The proposed rule includes two new paperwork requirements for faith-based or religious organizations. The proposed rule would require faithbased or religious organizations to give beneficiaries (or prospective beneficiaries) notice informing them of their protections under the regulation. The proposed rule would also require E:\FR\FM\14AUN1.SGM 14AUN1 asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 157 / Friday, August 14, 2015 / Notices faith-based or religious organizations to make reasonable efforts to identify and refer beneficiaries requesting referrals to alternative service providers. 5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The Department acknowledges that estimating the number of faithbased or religious organizations that provide services or benefits under Department programs is challenging. To obtain this estimate, the Department relied upon information from two of its grantmaking components: The Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) and the Office of Justice Programs (OJP). OVW estimates that there are approximately 100 grantees and subgrantees that would have to provide the notice to beneficiaries. OJP estimates that there may be fewer than 50 grantees and subgrantees subject to the notice requirement, based on three years of information related to legal name, application for funding, and use of special conditions that is maintained in its Grants Management System. Accordingly, the Department estimates that the total number of organizations that must give notice will be equal to 150. It is further estimated, as stated below, the total hours per year for respondents to give notice is estimated to be 60. 6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection: The estimated public burden associated with this collection is 60 hours per year. It is estimated that respondents will take 1 minute to provide the notice. The burden hours for providing a beneficiary referral request was calculated as follows: (150 faith-based or religious organizations × 1/60 hour (the time needed to give the notice) × 12 per year (the number of annual requests for a referral) = 60 hours).

faith-based or religious organizations to make reasonable efforts to 
identify and refer beneficiaries requesting referrals to alternative 
service providers.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The Department 
acknowledges that estimating the number of faith-based or religious 
organizations that provide services or benefits under Department 
programs is challenging. To obtain this estimate, the Department relied 
upon information from two of its grantmaking components: The Office on 
Violence Against Women (OVW) and the Office of Justice Programs (OJP). 
OVW estimates that there are approximately 100 grantees and subgrantees 
that would have to provide the notice to beneficiaries. OJP estimates 
that there may be fewer than 50 grantees and subgrantees subject to the 
notice requirement, based on three years of information related to

with the collection: The estimated public burden associated with this

based or religious organizations x 1/60 hour (the time needed to give 
the notice) x 12 per year (the number of annual requests for a 
referral) = 60 hours).
