Proposed Data Collections Submitted for Public Comment and Recommendations, 13495-13496 [E7-5218]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 55 / Thursday, March 22, 2007 / Notices branches, the number of branch openings, closings, sales, and relocations is quite small. The current proposal allows for greater flexibility in how the schedule is filed, which should allow banks to find efficient ways to transmit the data. One commenter requested clarification of the administrative branch type. This term was defined in the draft instructions as a branch that has limited nondeposit functions, including back office operations and check processing facilities. Modifications to the Original Proposal In response to comments and industry feedback, the Federal Reserve approved the following modifications to the original proposal: • Eliminating LPOs, consumer credit offices, and administrative offices from the list of reportable branches on the FR Y–6 and FR Y–10; • Excluding from the FR Y–10 address changes that result from changes in street names or zip codes, with no actual change in the physical location of the branch; • Making FR Y–10 reporting of branch relocations of less than 1,000 feet optional, if the move does not involve a change of county; and • Changing the implementation dates to December 31, 2007, for the FR Y–6 revisions and April 30, 2008, for the FR Y–10 revisions. rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES Final approval under OMB delegated authority the implementation of the following survey: Report title: Central Bank Survey of Foreign Exchange and Derivatives Market Activity Agency form number: FR 3036 OMB control number: 7100–0285 Frequency: One–time Reporters: Financial institutions that serve as intermediaries in the wholesale foreign exchange and derivatives market and dealers.

Abstract: The FR 3036 is the U.S. part of a global data collection that is conducted by central banks every three years. More than fifty central banks plan to conduct the survey in 2007. The Bank for International Settlements compiles national data from each central bank to produce global market statistics.

Respondents use the published data to gauge their market share. Current actions: On January 11, 2007, the Federal Reserve published a notice in the Federal Register (72 FR 1325) requesting public comment for 60 days on the implementation of the FR 3036 survey. The comment period for this notice expired on March 12, 2007. The Federal Reserve received no comments on the proposed survey and will implement it as proposed.

Background and Brief Description CDC is launching an integrated ‘‘one face to the public’’ approach across all communication channels to handle inquiries concerning a broad spectrum of public health topics. The overall objective is to ensure consistent, timely, reliable health information for dissemination to a variety of consumers (public, health professionals, researchers, etc.) and to address variations in inquiry volumes related to public health emergencies, news events, and dynamic, shifting public health priorities. The CDC has integrated over 40 hotlines into one Consumer Response Services Center—CDC–INFO. CDC–INFO has an exceptionally wide scope because content currently divided between over 40 hotlines handling nearly 2,000,000 telephone contacts annually will be consolidated under CDC–INFO. All CDC hotlines were consolidated in one center beginning in February 2005, with all CDC program areas transitioning into CDC–INFO through a phased approach during the next three years. CDC–INFO itself will be operational for at least the next seven years. The primary objectives of the national evaluation are to (1) Proactively evaluate customer interactions and service effectiveness by employing assessment measures and data collection mechanisms to support performance management, gathering insights and understandings for improving service levels, and implementing effective measures to meet customer satisfaction goals; (2) develop an ongoing understanding of customer requirements and satisfaction E:\FR\FM\22MRN1.SGM 22MRN1 13496 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 55 / Thursday, March 22, 2007 / Notices trends to achieve best of practice quality standards and to provide qualitative assessments, quantitative data, and cost factors to drive improvement and reinforce operational objectives; (3) measure CDC–INFO contractor service performance to assist in determining whether performance incentives have been achieved; and (4) to collect data in order to address public concern and response to emergencies, outbreaks, and media events. Sample size, respondent burden, and intrusiveness have been minimized to be consistent with national evaluation objectives.

SUMMARY: The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:11 Mar 21, 2007 Jkt 211001 (NIOSH) announces the availability of opportunity for the public to provide input regarding the draft document, ‘‘Long-Term Field Evaluation (LTFE) Program Concept.’’ The public meeting will be held on March 22, 2007 at the DoubleTree Pittsburgh Airport Hotel, 8402 University Blvd., Moon Township, PA 15108. NIOSH is the Federal agency responsible for conducting research and making recommendations for the approval for self-contained, self-rescuer (SCSR) closed circuit escape respirators, Title 42, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 84. The LTFE program for self-contained self-rescuers (SCSRs) for miners was initiated more than 20 years ago by the U.S. Bureau of Mines. The objective for the LTFE program is to obtain data to determine the expected performance characteristics of SCSRs used in the mining industry. LTFE program results based on scientific principles can provide useful information to monitor expected SCSR performance and assess possible degradation due to the physical stresses of in-mine use. Of utmost concern is the successful performance of any SCSR that passes its inspection criteria specified by the manufacturer. It is such an apparatus that must be relied upon in an emergency.

across all communication channels to handle inquiries concerning a

ensure consistent, timely, reliable health information for 
dissemination to a variety of consumers (public, health professionals, 
researchers, etc.) and to address variations in inquiry volumes related 
to public health emergencies, news events, and dynamic, shifting public 
health priorities. The CDC has integrated over 40 hotlines into one
