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;
PO 00000

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and

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
OMB Control Number 1652–0044;
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) Traveler Redress Inquiry Program
(DHS TRIP). DHS TRIP is a single point
of contact for individuals who have
inquiries or seek resolution regarding
difficulties they have experienced
during their travel screening. These
difficulties could include: (1) Denied or
delayed boarding; (2) denied or delayed
entry into or departure from the United
States at a port of entry; or (3) identified
for additional (secondary) screening at
our Nation’s transportation facilities,
including airports, seaports, train
stations and land borders. The TSA
manages the DHS TRIP office on behalf
of DHS. To request redress, individuals
are asked to provide identifying
information as well as details of their
travel experience.
The DHS TRIP office serves as a
centralized intake office for traveler
requests for redress and uses the online
Traveler Inquiry Form (TIF) to collect
requests for redress. DHS TRIP then
passes the information to the relevant
DHS component to process the request,
as appropriate (e.g., DHS TRIP passes
the form to the appropriate DHS office
to initiate the Watch List Clearance
Procedure). Participating DHS
components include the TSA, U.S.
Customs and Border Protection, U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services,
Office of Biometric Information
Management, Office of Civil Rights and
Civil Liberties, and the Privacy Office,
along with the U.S. Department of State,
Bureau of Consular Affairs, and the U.S.
Department of Justice (Terrorist
Screening Center). This collection
serves to distinguish misidentified
individuals from an individual actually
on any watch list that DHS uses, and,
where appropriate, this program helps
streamline and expedite future check-in
or border crossing experiences.
DHS estimates completing the form,
and gathering and submitting the
information will take approximately one
hour. The annual respondent
population was derived from data
contained within the DHS case
management database and reflects the
actual number of respondents for the
most recent calendar year. Thus, the

Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 170 / Tuesday, September 3, 2013 / Notices
total estimated annual number of
burden hours for passengers seeking
redress, based on 21,670 annual
respondents, is 21,670 hours (21,670 ×
1).

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Disaster Recovery Grant Reporting
System.
OMB Approval Number: 2506–0165.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Form Number: SF–424—Application
for Federal Assistance.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Disaster Recovery Grant Reporting
(DRGR) System is a grants management
system used by the Office of Community
Planning and Development to monitor
special appropriation grants under the
Community Development Block Grant
program. This collection pertains to
Community Development Block Grant
Disaster Recovery (CDBG–DR) and
Neighborhood Stabilization Program
(NSP) grant appropriations. The CDBG
program is authorized under Title I of
the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974, as amended.
Following major disasters, Congress
appropriates supplemental CDBG funds
for disaster recovery. According to
Section 104(e)(1) of the Housing and
Community Development Act of 1974,
HUD is responsible for reviewing
grantees’ compliance with applicable
requirements and their continuing
capacity to carry out their programs.
Grant funds are made available to states
and units of general local government,
Indian tribes, and insular areas, unless
provided otherwise by supplemental
appropriations statute, based on their
unmet disaster recovery needs.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
Community Development Block Grant
Disaster Recovery (CDBG–DR) Grants:
The system has approximately 72 open
CDBG disaster recovery grants in DRGR.
HUD estimates an additional 40 grants
as a result of the recent supplemental
appropriation for Hurricane Sandy
relief. One-time only submissions: The
onetime only pre- and post-award
submissions for the estimated 40 new
DRSI grants resulting from Hurricane
Sandy include standard forms, DRGR
Action Plan, and required financial
control documentation. Total hours are
estimated at 505 at a cost of $12,164.
Recurring submissions: Recurring
submissions include quarterly progress
reports and voucher submissions. For
average-sized grants, the Department
estimates 13 minutes needed per
voucher. CDBG–DR grantees process
approximately 19 vouchers per year.
This requires a record keeping and
reporting burden of approximately 4
hours per grantee, per year. Larger
CDBG–DR grantees take approximately
44 minutes for each voucher and submit
PO 00000
Frm 00036
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
54267
an average of 146 vouchers per year,
resulting in approximately 106 burden
hours per year, per grantee. Therefore,
all CDBG–DR grantees collectively
spend an estimated 2,721 hours
submitting vouchers in the DRGR
system for a total estimated annual
voucher submission cost of $65,575.
Average-sized grantees spend an
estimated 9 hours on each QPR, for a
total of 3,240 hours. Large grantees
spend an estimated 57 hours per QPR
for a total of 5,016 hours. Therefore, all
grantees collectively spend an estimated
8,256 hours per year submitting QPR
data in DRGR. Total annual QPR
submissions cost an estimated $198,970.
Grants: For the 577 active NSP grants in
the DRGR system, the Department
estimates 11 minutes per voucher
Neighborhood Stabilization Program
submission. NSP grantees process
approximately 34 vouchers per year.
This requires a record keeping and
reporting burden of approximately 3,899
hours for an annual voucher submission
cost of $93,970. NSP grantees spend an
estimated 4 hours per QPR submission,
for a total of 9,232 hours for a total
annual QPR submission costs $222,491.
Neighborhood Stabilization Program 3—
Technical Assistance Grants: The DRGR
system currently has 10 open NSP3–TA
grants. Historical data on voucher and
QPR submissions for technical
assistance grants were extremely limited
at the time this collection was being
assembled. Therefore, the times used to
calculate NSP grant cost burden will be
applied to NSP3–TA grant cost burden.
For 10 average-sized grants, the
Department estimates 11 minutes per
voucher. Grantees process
approximately 38 vouchers per year.
Total burden hours for all grantees over
the course of the year is estimated at
380, for a total annual submission cost
of $1,648. 10 average-sized grantees
spend approximately 4 hours submitting
each QPR, for a total of 160 hours over
the course of a year. Total annual QPR
submission costs approximately $3,856.
B. Solicitation of Public Comment
This notice is soliciting comments
from members of the public and affected
parties concerning the collection of
information described in Section A on
the following:
(1) 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;
(2) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (3) Ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; and
