SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the direction of Homeland Security Presidential Directive-7 (HSPD–7) (2003), DHS/NPPD/IP has developed the IP Gateway—a centrally managed repository of infrastructure capabilities allowing the Critical Infrastructure (CI) community to work in conjunction with each other toward the same goals. This collection involves the standardized recording, via a series of web-based forms, of a significant amount of information assembled during voluntary physical facility review surveys. The survey is used to analyze risks and vulnerabilities to a facility and how they can mitigate risks and vulnerabilities. Questions focus on whether specific sets of controls and operational best practices are planned, defined, implemented, measured, managed, and assessed on a regular basis across all aspects of facility use and operation. Surveys are usually completed by government personnel, but can be performed by individual site owners as well. OMB is particularly interested in comments that: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:15 Nov 10, 2015 Jkt 238001 1. 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; 2. 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; 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 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.

In the case of a parentchild relationship, there is often a degree of difficulty in establishing this for refugee populations that often lack reliable documentation. USCIS is seeking to allow I–590 applicants to provide DNA testing results through an AABB accredited laboratory, and in coordination with the USCIS overseas office, to provide effective and credible evidence of this parent-child relationship. USCIS is also seeking to conduct simultaneous Rapid DNA testing as a pilot to make a determination if the Rapid DNA machines provide a valid alternative to traditional DNA testing. USCIS will be collecting samples for traditional DNA testing through an AABB accredited laboratory in conjunction with the Rapid DNA pilot to test the validity of the results obtained during the pilot. The collection of DNA, regardless of process employed, is strictly voluntary and refusal to provide a sample does not adversely impact an applicant’s I–590 application.

If approved, the ITP would be in force for a period of 30 years, and would authorize incidental take of three species currently listed under the Act, and one species that may become listed under the Act. The proposed incidental take would occur as a result of specified actions conducted under the authority of the San Rafael Cattle Company. This is the second notice regarding the dHCP. An earlier notice of Availability was published on July 22, 2010 (75 FR 35504).
