SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Summary of Information About the Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) IRIS is a database that contains potential adverse human health effects information that may result from chronic (or lifetime) exposure to specific chemical substances found in the environment. The database (available on the Internet at https://www.epa.gov/iris) contains qualitative and quantitative health effects information for more than 540 chemical substances that may be used to support the first two steps (hazard identification and doseresponse evaluation) of a risk assessment process. When supported by available data, the database provides oral reference doses (RfDs) and inhalation reference concentrations (RfCs) for chronic health effects, and oral slope factors and inhalation unit risks for carcinogenic effects. Combined with specific exposure information, government and private entities can use IRIS data to help characterize public health risks of chemical substances in a site-specific situation and thereby support risk management decisions designed to protect public health. II. Workshop Information Members of the public may attend the workshop as observers, and there will be a limited time for oral comments from the public. Pre-registration is strongly recommended as space is limited, and registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. The deadline for pre-registration is October 7, 2008. If space allows, registrations will continue to be accepted after this date, including onsite registrations. Time will be set aside to hear comments from observers, and individuals will be limited to a maximum of five minutes during the morning session of peer review workshop. Please let ERG know if you wish to make comments during the workshop by registering on the Web site at https://www2.ergweb.com/projects/ conferences/peerreview/registercarbontetra.htm and indicating your intent to make oral comments.

An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act that does not display a valid OMB control number. DATES: Written PRA comments should be submitted on or before October 9, 2008. If you anticipate that you will be submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within the period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the FCC contact listed below as soon as possible.

Title: Information Collection regarding Emergency Backup Power for SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00094 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Communications Assets as set forth in the Commission’s rules (47 CFR 12.2). Form No.: Not applicable. Type of Review: New collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit. Number of Respondents: 73 respondents; 93 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 116.64 hours (range of 96 to 192 hours). Frequency of Response: One-time reporting. Obligation to Respond: Mandatory. Total Annual Burden: 10,848 hours. Total Annual Cost: None. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: This information collection does not affect individuals or households, and therefore a privacy impact assessment is not required. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: All reports and plans required by Section 12.2 of the Commission’s rules will be automatically afforded confidentiality because the information in these reports and plans is sensitive for both national security and/or commercial reasons. Needs and Uses: The Commission adopted an Order (FCC 07–107) that includes an emergency backup power rule (section 12.2). This rule, as modified in an Order on Reconsideration (FCC 07–177), obligates certain specified local exchange carriers (LECs) and commercial mobile radio service (CMRS) providers to file a report that enumerates whether the carriers meet the emergency backup power requirement for assets necessary to maintain communications that are normally powered from local commercial power. Specifically, Section 12.2(c) requires LECs and CMRS providers to file reports with the Commission that identify the following information: (1) Each asset that was designed to comply with the applicable backup power requirement; (2) each asset where compliance is precluded due to risk to safety or life or health; (3) each asset where compliance is precluded by private legal obligation or agreement; (4) each asset where compliance is precluded by Federal, state, tribal or local law; and (5) each asset that was designed with less than the required emergency backup power capacity and that is not precluded from compliance by risk to safety of life or health, private legal obligation or agreement, or Federal, state, tribal or local law. LECs and CMRS providers must file these reports within six months of the effective date of this requirement, which is the date of the Federal Register notice announcing OMB approval of the information collection contained in section 12.2 of E:\FR\FM\09SEN1.SGM 09SEN1
