Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 125 / Friday, June 30, 2017 / Notices

comment submission.
The DoN’s Proposed Action is to
conduct military readiness training
activities, and research, development,
testing, and evaluation activities in the
AFTT Study Area. These military
readiness activities include the use of
active sonar and explosives within
existing range complexes and testing
ranges and additional areas located in
the Atlantic Ocean along the eastern
coast of North America, in portions of
the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico,
at Navy pierside locations and port
transit channels, near civilian ports, and
in bays, harbors, and inland waterways
(e.g., the lower Chesapeake Bay). These
military readiness activities are
generally consistent with those analyzed
in the AFTT EIS/OEIS completed in
December 2013 and are representative of
training and testing that the Navy has
been conducting in the AFTT Study
Area for decades.
Potential direct, indirect, cumulative,
short-term, long-term, irreversible, and
irretrievable impacts to the environment
from two action alternatives and a No
Action Alternative are evaluated in the
Draft EIS/OEIS. Resources evaluated
include air quality, sediments and water
quality, vegetation, invertebrates,
marine habitats, fish, marine mammals,
sea turtles and other marine reptiles,
birds and bats, cultural resources,
socioeconomic resources, and public
health and safety.
Based on the results of the analysis,
the Navy has requested from NMFS a
Letter of Authorization (LOA) in
accordance with the MMPA to authorize
the incidental take of marine mammals
that may result from the implementation
of the activities analyzed in the AFTT
Draft EIS/OEIS. In accordance with
Section 7 of the Endangered Species
Act, the Navy is consulting with NMFS
and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) for potential impacts to
federally listed species. The Navy will
complete all required consultations and
comply with other applicable laws and
regulations.
The Draft EIS/OEIS addresses
mitigation measures designed to help
reduce or avoid potential impacts to
marine resources, including new
mitigation measures that include
expanded geographic mitigation areas,
and updates to procedural mitigation
measures. In addition, the Draft EIS/
OEIS addresses marine species
monitoring efforts designed to track
compliance with authorizations and to
investigate the effectiveness of
mitigation measures implemented as
part of the Proposed Action. The
proposed mitigation measures,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:32 Jun 29, 2017
Jkt 241001
including new mitigation measures,
would be implemented under either
alternative in order to maximize the
mitigation benefits to the environment.
Mitigation measures are being
coordinated through the consultation
and permitting processes. The DoN will
also consider public comments on
proposed mitigation measures described
in this Draft EIS/OEIS.

EIS/OEIS was distributed to federal,

We
provide this notice in accordance with
5 U.S.C. 552a (commonly known as the
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended); Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) Final
Guidance Interpreting the Provisions of
Public Law 100–503, the Computer
Matching and Privacy Protection Act of
1988, 54 FR 25818 (June 19, 1989); and

Under sections 420R and 473(b) of the
Higher Education Act of 1965, as
amended (HEA) (20 U.S.C. 1070h and
20 U.S.C. 1087mm(b)), the Secretary of
Defense must provide the Secretary of
Education with information to identify
the children of military personnel who
have died as a result of their military
service in Iraq or Afghanistan after
September 11, 2001, to determine if the
child is eligible for increased amounts
of title IV, HEA program assistance. DoD
and ED have determined that matching
data contained in the DoD DMDC
system and the Defense Enrollment
Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS)
against ED’s Federal Student Aid
Application File (18–11–01) is the only
practical method that the agencies can
use to meet the statutory requirements
of the HEA.
The prior Computer Matching
Agreement (CMA) was published in the
Federal Register on January 2, 2015 (80
FR 37). Under the provisions of the
Computer Matching and Privacy
Protection Act of 1988, Public Law 100–
503, the CMA was renewed for an
additional 12 months through July 31,
2017 because: (1) The program was
conducted without change; and (2) each
Data Integrity Board Chairperson
certified in writing that the program was
conducted in compliance with the
CMA. ED and DoD are now reestablishing the CMA through this
notice.

PROGRAM:
Sections 420R and 473(b) of the HEA
(20 U.S.C. 1070h and 20 U.S.C.
1087mm(b)) and 5 U.S.C. 552a.
PURPOSES:
This matching program identifies
children whose parent or guardian was
a member of the Armed Forces of the
United States and died as a result of
performing military service in Iraq or
Afghanistan after September 11, 2001.
These children (referred to as qualifying
students) may be eligible for a greater
amount of title IV, HEA program
assistance. A qualifying student must
have been age 24 or younger at the time
of the parent’s or guardian’s death, or,
if older than 24, enrolled part-time or
full-time in an institution of higher
education at the time of the parent’s or
guardian’s death. Beginning July 1,
2010, students who are otherwise
qualified children of deceased U.S.
military who meet the requirements of
section 420R of the HEA (20 U.S.C.
1070h) may also be eligible for higher
amounts of title IV, HEA program
assistance.
CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS:
The individuals whose records are
included in this matching program are
dependents of service personnel who
died as a result of performing their
military service in Iraq or Afghanistan
after September 11, 2001, which records
are located in the DoD DMDC and
DEERS systems, and all students who
complete a Free Application for Federal
Student Aid.
CATEGORIES OF RECORDS:
DoD data include the individual’s first
and last name, Social Security number
(SSN), date of birth, and the parent’s or
guardian’s date of death for each
qualifying dependent record. ED uses
the SSN, date of birth, and the first two
letters of an applicant’s last name to
match with the Federal Student Aid
Application File.

ED system of records: Federal Student
Aid Application File (18–11–01) (76 FR
