The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: National Technical
Information Service (NTIS), Commerce.
Title:
(A) ‘‘Limited Access Death Master
File (LADMF) Accredited Conformity
Assessment Body Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form’’ (ACAB Systems
Safeguards Attestation Form).
(B) ‘‘Limited Access Death Master File
(LADMF) State or Local Government
Auditor General (AG) or Inspector
General (IG) Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form’’ (AG or IG Systems
Safeguards Attestation Form).
OMB Control Number: 0692–0016.
Form Number(s): NTIS FM100A and
NTIS FM100B.
Type of Request: Renewal of a
currently approved information
collection.
Number of Respondents:
ACAB Systems Safeguards Attestation
Form: NTIS expects to receive
approximately 500 ACAB Systems
Safeguards Attestation Forms from
Persons and Certified Persons annually.
AG or IG Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form: NTIS expects to
receive approximately 60 AG or IG
Systems Safeguards Attestation Forms
from Persons and Certified Persons

Average Hours per Response:
ACAB Systems Safeguards Attestation

AG or IG Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form: 3 hours.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:27 Apr 19, 2017
Jkt 241001
Burden Hours:
ACAB Systems Safeguards Attestation
Form: 1,500 (500 x 3 hours = 1,500
hours).
AG or IG Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form: 180 (60 x 3 hours=180
hours).
Needs and Uses: NTIS issued a final
rule establishing a program through
which persons may become eligible to
obtain access to Death Master File
(DMF) information about an individual
within three years of that individual’s
death. The final rule was promulgated
under Section 203 of the Bipartisan
Budget Act of 2013, Public Law 113–67
(Act). The Act prohibits the Secretary of
Commerce (Secretary) from disclosing
DMF information during the three-year
period following an individual’s death
(Limited Access DMF), unless the
person requesting the information has
been certified to access the Limited
Access DMF pursuant to certain criteria
in a program that the Secretary
establishes. The Secretary delegated the
authority to carry out Section 203 to the
Director of NTIS.
On December 30, 2014, NTIS initially
described a ‘‘Limited Access Death
Master File Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form’’ in the notice of
proposed rulemaking (79 FR 78314 at
78321). To accommodate the
requirements of the final rule, NTIS is
using both the ACAB Systems
Safeguards Attestation Form and the AG
or IG Systems Safeguards Attestation
Form.
The ACAB Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form requires an
‘‘Accredited Conformity Assessment
Body’’ (ACAB), as defined in the final
rule, to attest that a Person seeking
certification or a Certified Person
seeking renewal of certification has
information security systems, facilities
and procedures in place to protect the
security of the Limited Access DMF, as
required under Section 1110.102(a)(2) of
the final rule. The ACAB Systems
Safeguards Attestation Form collects
information based on an assessment by
the ACAB conducted within three years
prior to the date of the Person or
Certified Person’s submission of a
completed certification statement under
Section 1110.101(a) of the final rule.
This collection includes specific
requirements of the final rule, which the
ACAB must certify are satisfied, and the
provision of specific information by the
ACAB, such as the date of the
assessment and the auditing standard(s)
used for the assessment.
Section 1110.501(a)(2) of the final rule
provides that a state or local government
office of AG or IG and a Person or
Certified Person that is a department or
PO 00000
Frm 00006

agency of the same state or local
government, respectively, are not
considered to be owned by a common
‘‘parent’’ entity under Section
1110.501(a)(1)(ii) for the purpose of
determining independence, and
attestation by the AG or IG is possible.
The AG or IG Systems Safeguards
Attestation Form is for the use of a state
or local government AG or IG to attest
on behalf of a state or local government
department or agency Person or
Certified Person. The AG or IG Systems
Safeguards Attestation Form requires
the state or local government AG or IG
to attest that a Person seeking
certification or a Certified Person
seeking renewal of certification has
information security systems, facilities
and procedures in place to protect the
security of the Limited Access DMF, as
required under Section 1110.102(a)(2) of
the final rule. The AG or IG Systems
Safeguards Attestation Form collects
information based on an assessment by
the state or local government AG or IG
conducted within three years prior to
the date of the Person or Certified
Person’s submission of a completed
certification statement under Section
1110.101(a) of the final rule. This
collection includes specific
requirements of the final rule, which the
state or local government AG or IG must
certify are satisfied, and the provision of
specific information by the state or local
government AG or IG, such as the date
of the assessment.
Affected Public: Accredited
Conformity Assessment Bodies and state
or local government Auditors General or
Inspectors General attesting that a
Person seeking certification or a
Certified Person seeking renewal of
certification under the final rule for the
‘‘Certification Program for Access to the
Death Master File’’ has information
security systems, facilities and
procedures in place to protect the
security of the Limited Access DMF, as
required by the final rule.
Frequency: Once every three years.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory
for a Person seeking certification or
renewal of certification for access to the
Limited Access DMF to have an
Accredited Conformity Assessment
Body or state or local government
Auditor General or Inspector General
