Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation is
available at https://www.reginfo.gov.
Therefore, in preparation for OMB
review and approval of the following
information collection, TSA is soliciting
comments to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
Title: Department of Homeland
Security—Vulnerability Identification
Self-Assessment Tool—Transportation
(DHS–VISAT–T).
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652–0037.
Forms(s): NA.
Affected Public: Transportation
Sectors.
Abstract: The DHS–VISAT–T
(formerly the TSA Self-Assessment Risk
Module (TSARM)) was developed to
assist all modes of transportation asset
owners/operators in developing a
security plan and in performing a
vulnerability assessment of their
asset(s). The tool is designed to be userfriendly, web-based, and is provided at
no cost to transportation owner and
operators. The tool captures a snapshot
of the asset’s baseline security posture
and assists the stakeholder in
conducting a vulnerability assessment
and completing a comprehensive
security plan. TSA designed this tool to
be flexible to support the unique
characteristics of each transportation
mode, while still providing a common
framework from which analysis and
trends can be identified. Thus far, TSA
has developed modules of the tool for
maritime, mass transit, highway bridges,
and rail passenger stations, with more in
development.
Users have the option to submit the
completed assessment to TSA. If
PO 00000
Frm 00036

submitted, TSA reviews the assessment
for consistency and provides feedback
to the users. Submitted assessments are
then used to conduct analysis of the
industry standard and to provide cross
sector analysis of multiple modes.
Number of Respondents: 1,000.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 8,000 hours annually.
Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on
February 12, 2009.

Proposed Extension of the Approval of
Information Collection Requirements
ACTION:

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor
(DOL), as part of its continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burden, conducts a preclearance
consultation program to provide the
general public and Federal agencies
with an opportunity to comment on
proposed and/or continuing collections
of information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the
Employment Standards Administration
is soliciting comments concerning its
proposal to extend OMB approval of the
information collection: Regulations
Governing the Administration of the
Longshore and Harbor Workers’
Compensation Act (ESA–100, LS–200,
LS–201, LS–203, LS–204, LS–262, LS–
267, LS–271, LS–274, LS–513). A copy
of the proposed information collection
request can be obtained by contacting
the office listed below in the addresses

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: The Office of Workers’
Compensation Programs (OWCP)
administers the Longshore and Harbor
Workers’ Compensation Act (LHWCA).
LHWCA provides benefits to workers
injured in maritime employment on the
navigable waters of the United States or
in an adjoining area customarily used by
an employer in loading, unloading,
repairing, or building a vessel. In
addition, several Acts extend the
Longshore Act’s coverage to certain
other employees. The following
regulations have been developed to
implement the Act’s provisions and to
provide clarification in those areas
where it was deemed necessary (20 CFR
702.162, 702.174, 702.175, 20 CFR
702.242, 20 CFR 702.285, 702.321,
702.201, and 702.111). In some cases,
prior regulations have been updated and
changed either to reflect the intent of
the amended Act or to correct
recognized deficiencies.
This information collection is
currently approved for use through
August 31, 2009.
II. Review Focus: The DOL is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions: The DOL seeks
the approval for the extension of this
currently approved information
collection.
Type of Review: Extension.

Administration.
