The FDMS allows the public to search, view, download, and comment on all Federal agency rulemaking documents in one central online system. DATES: The proposed notice will be effective without further notice on May 3, 2005. ADDRESSES: Questions regarding this notice should be referred to Valerie Brecher-Kovacevic at U.S. EPA, Office of Environmental Information, M/C 2282V, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460, 202–632–0339, or via e-mail brecherkovacevic.valerie@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. General Information The FDMS serves as a central, electronic repository for all Federal rulemaking dockets, which include Federal Register notices, supporting materials such as scientific or economic analyses, and public comments, as well as non-rulemaking dockets. The FDMS is a system used by all Federal agencies that conduct rulemakings. Each agency is responsible for managing its own docket and rulemaking documents. An agency may share documents with other agencies or persons in addition to making them available to the public on the FDMS Web site. Each agency has sole responsibility for the documents submitted in support of their rulemakings and these documents will be processed by the individual agencies. On behalf of the Federal partner agencies, EPA is publishing this new system of record notice as the Program Manager (PMO) for the E-Government, eRulemaking Initiative’s FDMS, in order to satisfy the applicable requirements of the Privacy Act. There will be instances when a person using FDMS to submit a comment or supporting materials on a Federal rulemaking must provide name and contact information (e-mail or mailing address) as required by an agency, or, a person may have the option to do so, if they would like an agency to contact them regarding a comment (e.g. if the agency experiences a problem receiving the comment or needs additional information). A PO 00000 Frm 00022 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 comment that meets all requirements, as determined by the Federal agency publishing the rulemaking, will be posted on the Internet (FDMS Web site) for public viewing and all the contents of the posted comment will be searchable. The FDMS is a system with full text search capability, which would include any name and contact information submitted in or as part of a comment. Each agency has the opportunity to review the data it receives as part of its rulemakings. An agency may choose to keep certain types of information contained in a comment submission from being posted publicly, while preserving the entire document to be reviewed and considered as part of the rulemaking docket. For example, comments containing material whose disclosure is restricted by Federal statute, such as the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), may not be publicly posted, but will be retained and evaluated/considered by the receiving agency. Each agency manages, accesses, and controls the information in the FDMS that is submitted to that particular agency and also maintains the sole ability to disclose the data submitted to that particular agency. The FDMS contains information that is submitted in support of Federal rulemakings, only a limited portion of which is covered under the Privacy Act. The portion of this system that comes under the Act includes the information received by agencies that require or accept personal identifying information (name and contact address/e-mail address). It will be apparent whether or not an agency requires this information. There will be set fields to be filled out on the comment page and clear notification as to whether the information is required or optional. There will be agencies that do not place these fields on the comment page as they do not require or offer to collect this information. Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. OEI–2005–0001, by one of the following methods: • Federal eRulemaking Portal: https:// www.regulations.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

    The FDMS serves as a central, electronic repository for all Federal 
rulemaking dockets, which include Federal Register notices, supporting 
materials such as scientific or economic analyses, and public comments, 
as well as non-rulemaking dockets. The FDMS is a system used by all 
Federal agencies that conduct rulemakings. Each agency is responsible 
for managing its own docket and rulemaking documents. An agency may 
share documents with other agencies or persons in addition to making 
them available to the public on the FDMS Web site. Each agency has sole 
responsibility for the documents submitted in support of their 
rulemakings and these documents will be processed by the individual 
agencies.
    On behalf of the Federal partner agencies, EPA is publishing this 
new system of record notice as the Program Manager (PMO) for the E-
Government, eRulemaking Initiative's FDMS, in order to satisfy the 
applicable requirements of the Privacy Act. There will be instances 
when a person using FDMS to submit a comment or supporting materials on 
a Federal rulemaking must provide name and contact information (e-mail 
or mailing address) as required by an agency, or, a person may have the 
option to do so, if they would like an agency to contact them regarding 
a comment (e.g. if the agency experiences a problem receiving the 
comment or needs additional information). A comment that meets all 
requirements, as determined by the Federal agency publishing the 
rulemaking, will be posted on the Internet (FDMS Web site) for public 
viewing and all the contents of the posted comment will be searchable. 
The FDMS is a system with full text search capability, which would 
include any name and contact information submitted in or as part of a 
comment. Each agency has the opportunity to review the data it receives 
as part of its rulemakings. An agency may choose to keep certain types 
of information contained in a comment submission from being posted 
publicly, while preserving the entire document to be reviewed and 
considered as part of the rulemaking docket. For example, comments 
containing material whose disclosure is restricted by Federal statute, 
such as the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), 
may not be publicly posted, but will be retained and evaluated/
considered by the receiving agency. Each agency manages, accesses, and 
controls the information in the FDMS that is submitted to that 
particular agency and also maintains the sole ability to disclose the 
data submitted to that particular agency.
    The FDMS contains information that is submitted in support of 
Federal rulemakings, only a limited portion of which is covered under 
the Privacy Act. The portion of this system that comes under the Act 
includes the information received by agencies that require or accept 
personal identifying information (name and contact address/e-mail 
address). It will be apparent whether or not an agency requires this 
information. There will be set fields to be filled out on the comment 
page and clear notification as to whether the information is required 
or optional. There will be agencies that do not place these fields on 
the comment page as they do not require or offer to collect this 
information. Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. OEI-
2005-0001, by one of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov. 
Follow the on-line instructions for submitting comments.

unless the comment includes information claimed to be Confidential 
Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is 
restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you consider to 
be CBI or otherwise protected through EDOCKET, regulations.gov, or e-
mail. The EPA EDOCKET and the federal regulations.gov websites are 
``anonymous access'' systems, which means EPA will not know your 
identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of 
your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without 
going through EDOCKET or regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be 
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is 
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you 
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name 
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any

technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA 
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid 
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of 
any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the EDOCKET index 
at https://www.epa.gov/edocket. Although listed in the index, some
