Laboratories certified through that program were accredited to conduct forensic urine drug testing as required by U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. As of that date, the certification of those accredited Canadian laboratories will continue under DOT authority. The responsibility for conducting quarterly performance testing plus periodic on-site inspections of those LAPSA-accredited laboratories was transferred to the U.S. HHS, with the HHS’ NLCP contractor continuing to have an active role in the performance testing and laboratory inspection processes. Other Canadian laboratories wishing to be considered for the NLCP may apply directly to the NLCP contractor just as U.S. laboratories do. Upon finding a Canadian laboratory to be qualified, HHS will recommend that DOT certify the laboratory (Federal Register, July 16, 1996) as meeting the minimum standards of the Mandatory Guidelines published in the Federal Register on April 13, 2004 (69 FR 19644). After receiving DOT certification, the laboratory will be included in the monthly list of HHScertified laboratories and participate in the NLCP certification maintenance program. 45025 AGENCY: information collection request 1670– NEW, CAPTAP Train the Trainer Survey.

ACTION: 30-day Notice and request for comment. mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES AGENCY: SUMMARY: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) invites the general public to comment on new data collection forms for the Tech Clearinghouse program: Consent Form, Entrance Form, Structured Assessment Case #1, Structured Assessment Case #2, Structured Assessment Case #3, Structured Assessment Case #4, and Exit Form. The Homeland Security Act of 2002 requires the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) to establish a Technology Clearinghouse to encourage and support innovative technical solutions to enhance homeland security and the mission of the Department (Pub. L. 107–296, Section 313). This requirement responds to long-standing requests by the first responder community to create a VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:39 Jul 31, 2008 Jkt 214001 resource for information and technology that would assist them in support of their mission. In order to assess the current version of the DHS Tech Clearinghouse, a National Online Electronic Assessment (NOEA) will be administered. This notice and request for comments is required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 35). Previously, a 60-day Notice for public comment was published on May 19, 2008. DATES: Comments are encouraged and will be accepted until September 2, 2008. Comments: Interested persons are invited to submit written comments on the proposed information collection to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget. Comments should be addressed to Desk Officer for the Department of Homeland Security, Science & Technology Directorate, and sent via electronic mail to oira_submission@omb.eop.gov or faxed to (202) 395–6974. Please include docket number [DHS–2008–0075] in the subject line of the message. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael Bowerbank (202) 254–6895 (this is not a toll free number). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Tech Clearinghouse National On-line Assessment (NOEA) will collect information via a secure Web site. The data will be used by DHS S&T to: (1) Assess the overall usability of the Tech Clearinghouse, (2) Assess the specific functions of the Tech Clearinghouse, (3) Assess the relevancy and usefulness of the content of the Tech Clearinghouse to first responders, (4) Assess the ease with which users navigate the Tech Clearinghouse, and (5) Provide general feedback on the Tech Clearinghouse. Information technology will be used in the collection of this information to reduce the data gathering and records management burden. The National Online Electronic Assessment will be conducted with approximately 100 currently employed or recently retired individuals from the first responder disciplines. An invitation to participate in the National Online Electronic Assessment will be distributed through sources such as the First Responder Technologies (R-Tech) User Working Group (UWG), the R-Tech Newsletter, and national and state-level associations representing all first responder disciplines. The sources will announce the opportunity for participation in the NOEA. The assessment will be completely Web-based. DHS S&T will provide a PO 00000 Frm 00070 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 secure Web site, through which individuals can participate in the assessment. DHS has opted to conduct this collection electronically in order to minimize the burden on participants. Individuals that choose to participate will take part in the assessment over a 4-week period, at locations of their choice where an Internet connection is available. The assessment will require a total of two and a half (2.5) hours of the respondent’s time, thus presenting a minimal burden to each respondent. Participants will be asked to read and sign an electronic consent form granting their consent to participate in the assessment. Participants will then complete an online Entrance Form, which addresses their familiarity with computers, computer use in employment and leisure, common Web sites they visit and/or use, and expectations of the Tech Clearinghouse. They will then utilize and assess the Tech Clearinghouse by conducting specified and general searches and providing feedback through online assessment instruments (Structured Assessment Cases). After completing the Structured Assessment Cases, participants will complete an online Exit Form, which addresses the participant’s satisfaction with and the overall usability of the Tech Clearinghouse and specific functions included in the Tech Clearinghouse. The electronic data collection forms will standardize the collection of information that is both necessary and sufficient for assessing the Tech Clearinghouse. All online assessment instruments were created using mrInterviewTM 4.0 software, which works in conjunction with the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSSTM). Data collected from online assessment instruments will be analyzed using SPSSTM 15.0. Data will be stored in password-protected computers accessible only to authorized personnel, and no data will be associated in any way with personally identifiable information (PII). Overview of This Information Collection (1) Type of Information Collection: New information collection. (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Tech Clearinghouse. Agency Form Number, if any, and the applicable component of the Department of Homeland Security sponsoring the collection: DHS Science & Technology Directorate. (3) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: Individuals; the data will be gathered from individuals who receive E:\FR\FM\01AUN1.SGM 01AUN1
