Average Hours per Response: Final closeout report: 25 hours. Burden Hours: 1,350. Needs and Uses: The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (Act, Pub. L. 112–96, 126 Stat. 156 (2012)) was signed by the President on February 22, 2012. The Act meets a long-standing priority of the Administration, as well as a critical national infrastructure need, to create a single, interoperable, nationwide public safety broadband network (NPSBN) that will, for the first time, allow police officers, fire fighters, emergency medical service professionals, and other public safety officials to effectively communicate with each other across agencies and jurisdictions. Public safety workers have long been hindered in their ability to respond in a crisis situation because of incompatible communications networks and often outdated communications equipment. The Act establishes the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) as an independent authority within NTIA and authorizes it to take all actions necessary to ensure the design, construction, and operation of the NPSBN, based on a single, national network architecture. The Act also charges NTIA with establishing a grant program, the State and Local Implementation Grant Program (SLIGP), to assist state, regional, tribal, and local jurisdictions with identifying, planning, and implementing the most efficient and effective means to use and integrate the infrastructure, equipment, and other architecture associated with the NPSBN to satisfy the wireless broadband and data services needs of their jurisdictions. NTIA will use the collection of information to ensure that SLIGP grant recipients are effectively monitored and evaluated against the core purposes of the program established by the Act. The information collection will ensure that final data is collected to effectively assess the success of SLIGP recipients in implementing their project goals. The publication of this notice allows NTIA to begin the process to request approval for the standard three years. This request is a new information collection request. Affected Public: State, regional, local, and tribal government organizations. Frequency: Once. Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory. NTIA published a Notice in the Federal Register on February 17, 2016 soliciting comments on this information collection. NTIA did not receive any comments on this Notice.

Chapter 35). Agency: Bureau of Industry and Security. Title: Simple Network Application Process and Multipurpose Application Form. Form Number(s): N/A. OMB Control Number: 0694–0088. Type of Request: Regular. Burden Hours: 31,833 hours. Number of Respondents: 64,612 respondents. Average Hours per Response: 0.49 hours per response. Needs and Uses: Over the years, BIS has worked with other Government agencies and the affected public to identify areas where export licensing requirements may be relaxed without jeopardizing U.S. national security or foreign policy. Many of these relaxations have taken the form of licensing exceptions and exclusions. Some of these license exceptions and exclusions have a reporting or recordkeeping requirement to enable the Government to continue to monitor exports of these items. Exporters may choose to utilize the license exception and accept the reporting or recordkeeping burden in lieu of submitting a license application. These exceptions and exclusions have resulted in a large reduction of licensing burden in OMB Control No. 0694–0088 and allow exporters to ship items quickly, without having to wait for license approval. This has also created ten PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 small collections involving these license exceptions and exclusions. These collections are designed to reduce export licensing burden. It is up to the individual company to decide whether it is most advantageous to continue to submit license applications or to comply with the reporting or recordkeeping requirements and take advantage of the licensing exception or exclusion.
