loading of software is involved in making the
finished x-ray systems in the United States.
Until all of the components are put together
into the completed system, it will not have
the character of an x-ray system, and the
individual components cannot carry out the
functions of an x-ray system of producing
radiographic images suitable for making a
diagnosis. We also find it highly significant
that the information provided indicates the
assembly and installation of the x-ray system
require a significant amount of time, in that
it usually takes about 4 to 5 days on-site to
complete. As in HQ H219597, after the
assembly and programming of the U.S. and
foreign made components are completed in
the United States, the foreign made
components all lose their individual
identities and connected together will create
a distinct new product, an x-ray system,
which is capable of providing radiographic
images for diagnostic purposes.
Consequently, we find that a product with a
new name, character, and use is produced by
the operations performed in the United States
to make the x-ray system, and thus the
country of origin of the DRX-Ascend Digital
x-ray system is the United States.
HOLDING:
Based on the information presented, the
imported components that are used in the
manufacture of the DRX-Ascend Digital x-ray
system are substantially transformed as a
result of the assembly operations and the
software installation performed at an on-site
location in the United States. Therefore, the
country of origin of the DRX-Ascend Digital
Radiography x-ray system for government
procurement purposes is the United States.
Notice of this final determination will be
given in the Federal Register, as required by
19 CFR 177.29. Any party-at-interest other
than the party which requested this final
determination may request, pursuant to 19
CFR 177.31, that CBP reexamine the matter
anew and issue a new final determination.
Pursuant to 19 CFR 177.30, any party-atinterest may, within 30 days of publication
of the Federal Register Notice referenced
above, seek judicial review of this final
determination before the Court of
International Trade.
Sincerely,
Alice A. Kipel,
Executive Director, Regulations and Rulings,

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Housing Discrimination Information
Form.
OMB Control Number: 2529–0011.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Form Number: HUD–903.1.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: HUD
uses the Housing Discrimination
Information Form HUD–903.1 (Form) to
collect pertinent information from
persons wishing to file housing
discrimination complaints with HUD
under the Fair Housing Act. The Fair
Housing Act makes it unlawful to
discriminate in the sale, rental,
occupancy, advertising, or insuring of
residential dwellings; or to discriminate
in residential real estate-related
transactions; or in the provision of
brokerage services, based on race, color,
religion, sex, handicap [disability],
familial status, or national origin.
Any person who claims to have been
injured by a discriminatory housing
practice, or any person who believes
that he or she will be injured by a
discriminatory housing practice that is
about to occur, may file a complaint
with HUD not later than one year after
the alleged discriminatory housing
practice occurs or terminates. The Form
promotes consistency in the collection
of information necessary to contact
persons who file housing discrimination
complaints with HUD. It also aids in the
collection of information necessary for
initial assessments of HUD’s authority
to investigate alleged discriminatory
housing practices under the Fair
Housing Act. This information may
subsequently be provided to persons
against whom complaints are filed
[‘‘respondents’’], as required under
section 810(a)(1)(B)(ii) of the Fair
Housing Act.

collection, including the number of

respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of responses: During FY 2016,
HUD staff received approximately
14,216 information submissions from
persons wishing to file housing
discrimination complaints with HUD.
Telephone contacts accounted for 1,548
of this total. The remaining 12,668
complaint submissions were transmitted
to HUD by mail, in-person, by email,
and via the Internet. HUD estimates that
an aggrieved person requires
approximately 45 minutes in which to
complete this Form. The Form is
completed once by each aggrieved
person. Therefore, the total number of
annual burden hours for this Form is
9,501 hours.
12,668 × 1 (frequency) × .45 minutes
(.75 hours) = 9,501 hours.
Annualized cost burden to
complainants: HUD does not provide
postage-paid mailers for this
information collection. Accordingly,
persons who choose to submit this Form
to HUD by mail must pay the prevailing
cost of First Class Postage. As of the date
of this Notice, the annualized cost
burden per person, based on a one-time
submission of this Form to HUD via
First Class Postage, is Forty-Nine Cents
($0.49) per person. During FY 2016,
FHEO staff received approximately
3,450 submissions of potential
complaint information by mail. Based
on this number, HUD estimates that the
total annualized cost burden for
aggrieved persons who submit this Form
to HUD by mail is $1,690.50. Aggrieved
persons also may submit this Form to
HUD in person, by facsimile, by email,
or electronically via the Internet.
Status of the proposed information
collection: Renewal of a currently
approved collection of pertinent
information from persons wishing to file
Fair Housing Act complaints with HUD.
B. Solicitation of Public Comments
This Notice is soliciting comments
from members of the public and affected
parties concerning the collection of
information described in Section A on
the following:
(1) 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;
(2) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) Ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond; including the use

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HUD is submitting this proposed extension of
a currently approved information collection to the OMB for review, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 [44 U.S.C. Chapter 35,
as amended].
This Notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and
affected agencies concerning the proposed extension of the collection
of information regarding alleged discriminatory housing practices under
the Fair Housing Act [42 U.S.C. 3601 et seq.]. The Fair Housing Act
prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, occupancy, advertising,
and insuring of residential dwellings; and in residential real estate-
related transactions; and in the provision of brokerage services, based
on race, color, religion, sex, handicap [disability], familial status,
or national origin.
Any person who claims to have been injured by a discriminatory
housing practice, or who believes that he or she will be injured by a
discriminatory housing practice that is about to occur, may file a
complaint with HUD not later than one year after the alleged
discriminatory housing practice occurred or terminated. HUD has
designed Housing Discrimination Information Form HUD-903.1 to promote
consistency in the documents that, by statute, must be provided to
persons against whom complaints are filed, and for the convenience of
the general public. Section 103.25 of HUD's Fair Housing Act regulation
describes the information that must be included in each complaint filed
with HUD. For purposes of meeting the Act's one-year time limitation
for filing complaints with HUD, complaints need not be initially
submitted on the Form that HUD provides. Housing Discrimination
Information Form HUD-903.1 (English language), HUD-903.1A (Spanish
language), HUD-903.1B (Chinese language), HUD-903.1C (Arabic language),
HUD-903.1F (Vietnamese language), HUD-903.1CAM (Cambodian language),
HUD-903.1KOR (Korean language), HUD-903.1RUS (Russian language), and
HUD-903-1_(Somali language) may be submitted to HUD by mail, in person,
by facsimile, by email, or via the Internet to HUD's Office of Fair
Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO). FHEO staff uses the information
provided on the Form to verify HUD's authority to investigate the
[[Page 31619]]
aggrieved person's allegations under the Fair Housing Act.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Housing Discrimination Information
Form.
OMB Control Number: 2529-0011.
Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved information
collection.
Form Number: HUD-903.1.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: HUD
uses the Housing Discrimination Information Form HUD-903.1 (Form) to
collect pertinent information from persons wishing to file housing
discrimination complaints with HUD under the Fair Housing Act. The Fair
Housing Act makes it unlawful to discriminate in the sale, rental,
occupancy, advertising, or insuring of residential dwellings; or to
discriminate in residential real estate-related transactions; or in the
provision of brokerage services, based on race, color, religion, sex,
handicap [disability], familial status, or national origin.
Any person who claims to have been injured by a discriminatory
housing practice, or any person who believes that he or she will be
injured by a discriminatory housing practice that is about to occur,
may file a complaint with HUD not later than one year after the alleged
discriminatory housing practice occurs or terminates. The Form promotes
consistency in the collection of information necessary to contact
persons who file housing discrimination complaints with HUD. It also
aids in the collection of information necessary for initial assessments
of HUD's authority to investigate alleged discriminatory housing
practices under the Fair Housing Act. This information may subsequently
be provided to persons against whom complaints are filed
[``respondents''], as required under section 810(a)(1)(B)(ii) of the
Fair Housing Act.
Agency form numbers, if applicable: Form HUD-903.1 (English), Form
HUD-903.1A (Spanish), Form HUD-903.1B (Chinese), Form HUD-903.1C
(Arabic), Form HUD-903.1F (Vietnamese), Form HUD-903.1CAM (Cambodian),
Form HUD-903.1KOR (Korean), Form HUD-903.1RUS (Russian), and Form HUD-
903-1_(Somali).
Members of affected public: Individuals or households; businesses
or other for-profit, not-for-profit institutions; State, Local, or
Tribal Governments.
Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the
information collection, including the number of respondents, frequency
of response, and hours of responses: During FY 2016, HUD staff received
approximately 14,216 information submissions from persons wishing to
file housing discrimination complaints with HUD. Telephone contacts
accounted for 1,548 of this total. The remaining 12,668 complaint
submissions were transmitted to HUD by mail, in-person, by email, and
via the Internet. HUD estimates that an aggrieved person requires
approximately 45 minutes in which to complete this Form. The Form is
completed once by each aggrieved person. Therefore, the total number of
annual burden hours for this Form is 9,501 hours.
12,668 x 1 (frequency) x .45 minutes (.75 hours) = 9,501 hours.
Annualized cost burden to complainants: HUD does not provide
postage-paid mailers for this information collection. Accordingly,
persons who choose to submit this Form to HUD by mail must pay the
prevailing cost of First Class Postage. As of the date of this Notice,
the annualized cost burden per person, based on a one-time submission
of this Form to HUD via First Class Postage, is Forty-Nine Cents
($0.49) per person. During FY 2016, FHEO staff received approximately
3,450 submissions of potential complaint information by mail. Based on
this number, HUD estimates that the total annualized cost burden for
aggrieved persons who submit this Form to HUD by mail is $1,690.50.
Aggrieved persons also may submit this Form to HUD in person, by
facsimile, by email, or electronically via the Internet.
Status of the proposed information collection: Renewal of a
currently approved collection of pertinent information from persons
wishing to file Fair Housing Act complaints with HUD.
B. Solicitation of Public Comments
This Notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and
affected parties concerning the collection of information described in
Section A on the following:
(1) 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;
(2) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
(4) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on
those who are to respond; including the use of appropriate automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g.,
permitting electronic submission of responses.
HUD encourages interested parties to submit comments in response to
these questions.
