Download as PDF emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES 49504 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 154 / Wednesday, August 10, 2011 / Notices 0002, Airport Security. TSA has implemented airport operator security standards at 49 CFR part 1542 to require each airport operator to which this part applies to adopt and carry out a security program. These TSA-approved security programs establish procedures that airport operators must carry out to protect persons and property traveling on flights provided by U.S. aircraft operators and foreign air carriers against acts of criminal violence, aircraft piracy, and the introduction of explosives, incendiaries, or weapons aboard an aircraft. This information collection is mandatory for airport operators. As part of their security programs, affected airport operators are required to maintain and update, as necessary, records of compliance with the security program provisions set forth in 49 CFR part 1542. This regulation also requires affected airport operators to make their security programs and associated records available for inspection and copying by TSA to ensure transportation security and regulatory compliance. The information requested of airport operators has increased due to the security measures mandated by the Federal Government since September 11, 2001. The information TSA now collects includes identifying information on individuals with unescorted access to the most secured areas of the airport. Under this regulation, airport operators must ensure that individuals seeking unescorted access authority submit to and receive a criminal history records check (CHRC). As part of the CHRC process, the individual must provide identifying information, including fingerprints. Additionally, airport operators must maintain these records and make them available to TSA for inspection and copying upon request. TSA will continue to collect information to determine airport operator compliance with other requirements of 49 CFR part 1542. TSA estimates that there will be approximately 444 airport operator respondents to the information requirements described above requiring approximately 535,705 hours per year to process. The current estimated annual burden is 535,705 hours annually. Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on August 4, 2011. Joanna Johnson, TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Office of Information Technology.

[FR Doc. 2011–20273 Filed 8–9–11; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4310–4N–P DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Notice of Lodging of a Consent Decree Under the Clean Water Act Notice is hereby given that on August 4, 2011, a proposed Consent Decree in United States, State of Missouri, and the Missouri Coalition for the Environment Foundation v. Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District, No. 4:07–CV–01120, was lodged with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. In this action the United States sought civil penalties and injunctive relief for violations of the Clean Water Act (‘‘CWA’’), 33 U.S.C. 1251, et seq., in connection with the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District’s (‘‘MSD’s’’) operation of its sewer system in the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County, Missouri. The Complaint alleged that MSD’s discharges of raw sewage from its sanitary sewer system—discharges that often are referred to as Sanitary Sewer Overflows or ‘‘SSOs’’—and from MSD’s combined storm water and sanitary sewer system—discharges that often are referred to as Combined Sewer Overflows or ‘‘CSOs’’—violate MSD’s National Pollutant Discharge PO 00000 Frm 00075 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 49505 Elimination System (‘‘NPDES’’) permits and Section 301 of the CWA, 33 U.S.C. 1311. The Complaint also alleged that the chronic and repeated backups of raw sewage into homes, yards, playgrounds, parks, and streets from MSD’s sewer system pose an ‘‘imminent and substantial endangerment’’ to human health under Section 504(a) of the CWA 33 U.S.C. 1364(a). The Missouri Coalition for the Environment Foundation moved to intervene as a coplaintiff in the federal action, and when its motion was granted by the Court, filed its Complaint in Intervention, alleging similar CWA claims against MSD. The proposed Consent Decree will resolve the United States’ CWA claims. Under the proposed Consent Decree, MSD will be required to implement comprehensive injunctive relief to expand and rehabilitate both its combined sewer system and its sanitary sewer system to reduce or eliminate unlawful SSOs and CSOs into various rivers and streams, as well as discharges to basements and from manholes or other discharge points in the St. Louis area. This injunctive relief will be performed over a 23-year period at a project cost of $4.7 billion. MSD will pay a total civil penalty of $1.2 million to the United States, and spend $1.6 million to carry out a program that will enable low income residents to elect to close their septic tanks and connect to the public sewer or to replace leaking private sewer lines. The consent decree also contains provisions pertaining to the claims of the Missouri Coalition for the Environment Foundation against MSD. The proposed Consent Decree has been signed by the United States, the Missouri Coalition for the Environment Foundation, and MSD. For thirty (30) days after the date of this publication, the Department of Justice will receive comments relating to the proposed Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and either e-mailed to pubcomment-ees.enrd@usdoj.gov or mailed to P.O. Box 7611, U.S. Department of Justice, Washington, DC 20044–7611. The comments should refer to United States, et al. v. Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District, D.J. Ref. 90–5–1–1–08111. During the public comment period, the proposed Consent Decree may be examined on the Department of Justice Web site, https://www.usdoj.gov/enrd/ Consent_Decrees.html. A copy of the proposed consent decree may be obtained by mailing a request to the Consent Decree Library, P.O. Box 7611, E:\FR\FM\10AUN1.SGM 10AUN1

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
