the public or for limited inspection.’’
Contact information for individual
reporters is collected, but only for
purposes of quality control/quality
assurance questions regarding the
report. Responses are voluntary. We
intend to release data collected on the
National Biological Information
Infrastructure Web site https://
www.nbii.gov, but all personal data
about the reporter—name, address,
phone number, and/or e-mail address—
are removed from the publicly
accessible database. The database
complies with all Department of the
Interior requirements and policies for
security and data integrity.
Frequency: The frequency is once,
unless the reporter voluntarily submits
more than one observation.
Estimated Number and Description of
Respondents: Approximately 50–100
public citizens annually.
Estimated Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Hour’’ Burden: The
currently approved ‘‘hour’’ burden for
the NARCAM data collection form is
150 hours. We estimate the public
reporting burden averages 30 minutes
per response. This includes the time for
reviewing instructions, and completing
and reviewing the information. Because
many individuals submit more than one
malformation report during a single
online session, some respondents will
exceed the average of 30 minutes per
reporting session. The approved ‘‘hour’’
burden of 150 hours is calculated based
upon the total number of average annual
malformation reports, and not the
average number of citizens submitting a
report.
Estimated Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Non-Hour Cost’’
Burden: We have identified no ‘‘nonhour cost’’ burden associated with the
NARCAM form.
Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an
agency may not conduct or sponsor a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. Until OMB approves a
collection of information, you are not
obligated to respond.
Comments; Before submitting an ICR
to OMB, PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A)
requires each agency ‘‘* * * to provide
notice * * * and otherwise consult
with members of the public and affected
agencies concerning each proposed
collection of information * * *’’.
Agencies must specifically solicit
comments to: (a) Evaluate whether the
proposed collection of information is
necessary for the agency to perform its
duties, including whether the
information is useful; (b) evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (c) enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
minimize the burden on the
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Agencies must also estimate the ‘‘nonhour cost’’ burdens to respondents or
recordkeepers resulting from the
collection of information. Therefore, if
you have costs to generate, maintain,
and disclose this information, you
should comment and provide your total
capital and startup cost components or
annual operation, maintenance, and
purchase of service components. You
should describe the methods you use to
estimate major cost factors, including
system and technology acquisition,
expected useful life of capital
equipment, discount rate(s), and the
period over which you incur costs.
Capital and startup costs include,
among other items, computers and
software you purchase to prepare for
collecting information, monitoring, and
record storage facilities. You should not
include estimates for equipment or
services purchased: (i) Before October 1,
1995; (ii) to comply with requirements
not associated with the information
collection; (iii) for reasons other than to
provide information or keep records for
the Government; or (iv) as part of
customary and usual business or private
practices.
We will summarize written responses
to this notice and address them in our
submission for OMB approval. As a
result of your comments, we will make
any necessary adjustments to the burden
in our submission to OMB.
Public Comment Policy: Before
including your address, phone number,
e-mail address, or other personal
identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
