Jkt 238001 This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) Housing Survey information collection. The CPI is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services. Each month, BLS data collectors visit or call thousands of retail stores, service establishments, rental units, and doctors’ offices all over the United States to obtain information on the prices of the thousands of items used to track and measure price changes in the CPI. The collection of price data from rental units is essential for the timely and accurate calculation of the shelter component of the CPI. The CPI is then widely used as a measure of inflation, indicator of the effectiveness of government economic policy, deflator for other economic series and as a means of adjusting dollar values. The BLS is authorized to collect this information under 29 U.S.C. 1 and 2. This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection under Control Number 1220–0163. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3) years without renewal, and the current approval for this collection is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2015. The DOL seeks to extend PRA authorization for this information collection for three (3) more years, without any change to existing requirements. The DOL notes that existing information collection requirements submitted to the OMB receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.

This system will store individually identifying information from a variety of individuals who have applied for or received grants, contracts, loans, or payments from NASA, including current and former employees of NASA, contractors, and subcontractors, and others whose actions have affected NASA. DATES: NASA seeks comment on the new system of records described in this notice, in accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act. We must receive your comments about the new system of records on or before December 21, 2015. NASA filed a report The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4)) requires NASA to publish in the Federal Register a notice of new system of records maintained by NASA. NASA’s regulations implementing the Privacy Act are contained in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in 14 CFR part 1212. The Privacy Act applies to information about an individual that is maintained in a system of records from which individually identifying information is retrieved by a unique identifier associated with each individual, such as a name or social security number. The information about each individual is called a ‘‘record,’’ and the system, whether manual or computer-driven, is called a ‘‘system of records.’’ The Privacy Act requires each agency to publish a system of records notice in the Federal Register and to submit reports to the Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, the Chair of the House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and the Chair of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:39 Nov 19, 2015 Jkt 238001 PO 00000 Frm 00066 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 72745 whenever the agency publishes a new or altered system of records. Background of System of Records ADAS is a system of records that will store individually identifying information from a variety of individuals who have applied for or received grants, contracts, cooperative or other agreements, loans, or payments from NASA. These individuals include: Current and former employees of NASA; consultants; contractors; grantees; advisory committee members or others who have received funds from NASA for performing services or have otherwise transacted business with or affected NASA. Information in this system will be obtained from the following systems of records maintained by NASA: Biographical Records for Public Affairs (System Number 10BRPA), NASA Foreign National Management System (System Number 10FNMS), Integrated Enterprise Management Program (IEMP)—Core Financial System (System Number 10IEM1), NASA Education Program Evaluation System (System Number 10EDUA), Government Motor Vehicle Operators Permit Records (System Number 10GMVP), NASA Guest Operations System (System Number 10GOS), Inspector General Investigations Case Files (System Number 10IGIC), NASA Personnel and Payroll Systems (System Number 10NPPS), Parking and Transit System (System Number 10PATS), Security Records System (System Number 10SECR), Special Personnel Records (System Number 10SPER), Exchange Records on Individuals (System Number 10XROI), Johnson Space Center Exchange Activities Records (System Number 72XOPR). Information for the ADAS may also be obtained from systems of records maintained by other government agencies. All applicable provisions of the Privacy Act, including relevant portions of the Computer Matching Act, will be observed when obtaining and maintaining such records in the ADAS. This new system of records notice is being established because it will involve the new use of records covered by existing NASA systems of records. This new system of records will be used to identify internal control weaknesses and to identify system issues to improve methods of data modeling and annual audit planning. This system will provide the NASA Office of Inspector General (OIG) with access to a single repository of data that currently resides in many, different NASA systems of records. The NASA OIG will conduct data modeling on this data, using E:\FR\FM\20NON1.SGM 20NON1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for 
the Consumer Price Index (CPI) Housing Survey information collection. 
The CPI is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid 
by consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services. Each 
month, BLS data collectors visit or call thousands of retail stores, 
service establishments, rental units, and doctors' offices all over the 
United States to obtain information on the prices of the thousands of 
items used to track and measure price changes in the CPI. The 
collection of price data from rental units is essential for the timely 
and accurate calculation of the shelter component of the CPI. The CPI 
is then widely used as a measure of inflation, indicator of the 
effectiveness of government economic policy, deflator for other 
economic series and as a means of adjusting dollar values. The BLS is 
authorized to collect this information under 29 U.S.C. 1 and 2.
    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency 
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and 
the public is generally not required to respond to an information 
collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays 
a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any 
other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to 
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that 
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 
1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection 
under Control Number 1220-0163.
    OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3) 
years without renewal, and the current approval for this collection is 
scheduled to expire on December 31, 2015. The DOL seeks to extend PRA 
authorization for this information collection for three (3) more years, 
without any change to existing requirements. The DOL notes that 
existing information collection requirements submitted to the OMB 
receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. For 
additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related 
notice published in the Federal Register on July 14, 2015 (80 FR 
41093).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within thirty (30) days of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate 
consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1220-0163. 
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
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;
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
