Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 73 / Wednesday, April 16, 2014 / Notices
Æ U.S. and international voluntary
standard development organization
activity addressing CO exposure
hazards.
2. Use of sensor technology for safe
shutdown of a gas heating appliance
when incomplete combustion or
dangerous levels of CO are detected.
• Suggested topics:
Æ Operating environment of sensors,
types of gases and environmental
parameters to monitor;
Æ operating ranges and expected life
of sensors;
Æ scope, state of the art, and
availability of sensor technologies
currently being used to shut off gas
heating appliances when incomplete
combustion or dangerous levels of CO
are detected or that are used in similar,
harsh environments;
Æ scope, state of the art, and
availability of prototype gas sensors that
may be commercially available for this
purpose within 1 to 5 years; barriers to
development and commercialization of
sensors capable of being used in the influe shut off application or similar harsh
environments;
Æ potential cooperative relationships
to bring existing technologies to market
and further develop near term
technologies.
We may combine, expand, or
eliminate panel sessions depending on
the level of interest. We will announce
the final agenda on the CPSC Web site
by May 28, 2014.
c. Details Regarding the Forum
1. When and where will the forum be

2. How do you register for the forum?
Panelists. If you would like to be
considered as a panel member for a
specific topic or topics at the forum, you
should register on or before May 9,
2014. (See the ADDRESSES section of this
document for the Web site link and
instructions on where to register.) We
ask that you indicate the panel or panels
on which you would like to serve and
each topic for which you wish to be
considered. We ask that each potential
panelist submit a brief (less than 200
word) abstract of the panelist’s area of
expertise and proposed topic, and a
draft presentation or outline at the time
of registration to Mr. Ronald Jordan,

Sciences, Directorate for Engineering
Sciences, rjordan@cpsc.gov.
Although we will make an effort to
accommodate all persons who wish to
be panelists, we expect to limit each
panel session to no more than five
panelists. We will select panelists based
on considerations such as the
individual’s demonstrated familiarity or
expertise with the topic to be discussed,
the practical utility of the information to
be presented, and the individual’s
viewpoint, expertise, or ability to
represent certain interests (such as
appliance manufacturers, sensor
manufacturers, consumer organizations,
and standards organizations). We
recommend that individuals and
organizations with common interests
consolidate or coordinate their
presentations.
For the panel discussion focusing on
technological solutions, CPSC staff is
seeking sensor manufacturing
representatives, appliance
manufacturing representatives (with
demonstrated experience working with
sensors in this application), and
regulatory or standards development
organization representatives (who have
worked on or developed standards for
sensor or other similar technologies for
this or similar applications).
We will notify selected panelists on or
before May 23, 2014. If you are selected
as a panelist and want to make copies
of your presentation or other handouts
available, you should bring copies for
dissemination to the forum. Please
inform Mr. Ronald Jordan, rjordan@
cpsc.gov, 301–987–2219, if you need
any special equipment to make a
presentation.
Other participants. If you wish to
attend and participate in the forum but
do not wish to be a panelist, you should
register on or before May 23, 2014, and
identify your affiliation. Every effort
will be made to accommodate each
person’s request; however, we may need
to limit registration to meet the
occupant capacity of our meeting room.
If you need special accommodations
because of a disability, please contact
Mr. Ronald Jordan, rjordan@cpsc.gov,
301–987–2219, at least 10 business days
before the forum.
The forum will be available through a
webcast, but you will not be able to
interact with the panelists. You do not
need to register for the webcast. The
forum will also be taped and made
available for viewing on the CPSC Web
site.
Written comments. If you wish to
submit written comments, you may do
so before or after the forum by any of the
methods stated in the ADDRESSES

portion of this notice. These comments
will be accepted until July 7, 2014, and
should be restricted to topics covered by
the forum, as described in this
Announcement.
3. What will be the format of the forum?
The forum will open with a plenary
session that includes a brief overview of
the Commission’s past activities
addressing CO exposure resulting from
malfunctioning or improperly installed/
maintained gas heating appliances.
Following that, a series of panels will
address one or more of the topics listed
above, depending on registrations. Panel
sessions are expected to consist of
stakeholders and members of the public
and will be moderated by CPSC staff.
We expect potential panelists to speak
for no more than 10 minutes each about
their topic area. At the conclusion of
each of the panel’s presentations, there
will be a question, answer, and
discussion session among the panelists
and the audience, centering on the
topics discussed by the panelists. Each
panel session is expected to last
approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes.
All attendees will be given the
opportunity to ask questions and make
comments during the question, answer
and discussion session following each
panel.
4. What happens if no one registers for
the forum?
If no one registers for the forum, we
will cancel the forum. If we decide to
cancel the forum for this or any other
reason, we will post a cancellation
notice on the registration Web page for
the forum and send an email to all
registered participants who provide
their email address when they register.
If the forum is cancelled, written
comments that are submitted as set forth
in this Announcement will be accepted.

conducts a pre-clearance 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. Sec. 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
requirement on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, CNCS is
soliciting comments concerning its
proposed renewal of Financial
Management Survey, OMB No. 3045–
0102. The Financial Management
Survey collects information from new
grantees about their financial
management and internal control
systems so the CNCS can determine if
appropriate systems are in place to
manage federal grant funds or, if not, to
identify training and technical
assistance a new grantee may need to
develop and implement appropriate
systems. The CNCS requires new
grantees which have never before
received Corporation funds to complete
the form. Completion of this survey is
required as an element of CNCS’ risk
assessment process, but is independent
from the competitive grant process.
Copies of the information collection
request can be obtained by contacting
the office listed in the Addresses section
of this Notice.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the individual and office
listed in the ADDRESSES section by June
16, 2014.
