The Department of the Treasury, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing information collections, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). Currently, the IRS is soliciting comments concerning Revenue Procedure 2009-14, Pre-filing Agreement Program.

On June 12, 2015, the Department of Commerce (the Department) published its notice of initiation and preliminary results of a changed circumstances review (CCR) of the antidumping duty order on Certain Pasta from Italy.\1\ The Department preliminarily determined that P.A.P. S.R.L. (PAP SRL) is the successor-in-interest to P.A.P. SNC Di Pazienza G. B. & C. (PAP SNC). No parties submitted comments, and for these final results we continue to find that PAP SRL is the successor- in-interest to PAP SNC.

On August 4, 2015, the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) instructed the Department of Commerce (Department) to implement its determinations under section 129 of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA) regarding the antidumping duty (AD) investigations on certain coated paper suitable for high-quality print graphics using sheet-fed presses from the People's Republic of China (PRC); seamless carbon and alloy steel standard, line, and pressure pipe from the PRC; high pressure steel cylinders from the PRC; multilayered wood flooring from the PRC; certain crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled into modules, from the PRC; and utility scale wind towers from the PRC; and regarding the AD administrative review of citric acid and citrate salts from the PRC, which renders them not inconsistent with the World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute settlement findings in the Appellate Body report on United States Countervailing and Anti- dumping Measures on Certain Products from China, WT/DS449/AB/R (July 7, 2014), and the panel report, as modified by the Appellate Body report, WT/DS449/R (March 27, 2014), adopted by the WTO Dispute Settlement Body on July 22, 2014 (DS 449). The Department issued its final determinations in these section 129 proceedings between July 14, 2015, and July 31, 2015.\1\ The Department is now implementing these final determinations.

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) is forwarding an Information Collection Request (ICR) to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Our ICR describes the information we seek to collect from the public. Review and approval by OIRA ensures that we impose appropriate paperwork burdens. The RRB invites comments on the proposed collection of information to determine (1) the practical utility of the collection; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden of the collection; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information that is the subject of collection; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of collections on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Comments to the RRB or OIRA must contain the OMB control number of the ICR. For proper consideration of your comments, it is best if the RRB and OIRA receive them within 30 days of the publication date. Section 2 of the Railroad Retirement Act (RRA), provides for the payment of an annuity to the spouse or divorced spouse of a retired railroad employee. For the spouse or divorced spouse to qualify for an annuity, the RRB must determine if any of the employee's current marriage to the applicant is valid. The requirements for obtaining documentary evidence to determine valid marital relationships are prescribed in 20 CFR 219.30 through 219.35. Section 2(e) of the RRA requires that an employee must relinquish all rights to any railroad employer service before a spouse annuity can be paid. The RRB uses Form G-346, Employee's Certification, to obtain the information needed to determine whether the employee's current marriage is valid. Form G-346 is completed by the retired employee who is the husband or wife of the applicant for a spouse annuity. Completion is required to obtain a benefit. One response is requested of each respondent. Consistent with 20 CFR 217.17, the RRB uses Form G-346sum, Employee's Certification Summary, which mirrors the information collected on Form G-346, when an employee, after being interviewed by an RRB field office staff member ``signs'' the form using an alternative signature method known as ``attestation.'' Attestation refers to the action taken by the RRB field office employee to confirm and annotate the RRB's records of the applicant's affirmation under penalty of perjury that the information provided is correct and the applicant's agreement to sign the form by proxy. Completion is required to obtain a benefit. One response is requested of each respondent. Previous Requests for Comments: The RRB has already published the initial 60-day notice (80 FR 32637 on June 9, 2015) required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That request elicited no comments.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) located within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announces the launch of the Million Hearts[supreg] Hypertension Control Challenge on August 18, 2015. The challenge will be open until October 31, 2015. Million Hearts[supreg] is a national initiative to prevent one million heart attacks and strokes by 2017. Achieving this goal means 10 million more Americans must have their blood pressure under control. Million Hearts[supreg] is working to control high blood pressure through clinical approaches, such as using health information technology to its fullest potential and integrating team-based approaches to health care, and community approaches, such as strengthening tobacco control and lowering sodium consumption. For more information about the initiative, visit www.millionhearts.hhs.gov. To support improved blood pressure control, HHS/CDC is announcing the 2015 Million Hearts[supreg] Hypertension Control Challenge. The challenge will improve understanding of successful implementation strategies at the health system level by motivating clinical practices and health systems to strengthen their hypertension control efforts. It will identify clinicians, clinical practices, and health systems that have exceptional rates of hypertension control and recognize them as Million Hearts[supreg] Hypertension Control Champions. To support improved quality of care delivered to patients with hypertension, Million Hearts[supreg] will document the systems, processes, and staffing that contribute to the exceptional blood pressure control rates achieved by Champions. Champions will receive local and national recognition.

This notice is announcing a public workshop to be held on the concept of ``Hazard Liquid Integrity Verification Process (HL IVP).'' The HL IVP is to confirm the Maximum Operating Pressure when pipeline records are not traceable, verifiable, or complete. The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) held a similar workshop in August 2013 on the Integrity Verification Process for gas transmission pipelines to help address several mandates in the Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty, and Job Creation Act of 2011 and National Transportation Safety Board recommendations. At this one day workshop, PHMSA will present the latest information for a proposal for HL IVP and have presentations of perspectives from pipeline operators, state regulatory partners, and the public. Earlier draft material provided to stakeholders along with comments in response from the American Petroleum Institute and the Association of Oil Pipelines are available via the same docket for this workshop.
