BILLING CODE 6750–01–P GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION [Notice–FTR–2015–01; Docket 2015–0002; Sequence 1] Change in Standard Procedure Office of Government-Wide Policy (OGP), General Services Administration (GSA). ACTION: Notice of FTR Bulletin 16–02, Calendar Year (CY) 2016 Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) Mileage Reimbursement Rates and Standard Mileage Rate for Moving Purposes (Relocation Allowances). AGENCY: The General Services Administration (GSA) uses the single standard mileage rate established by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as the mileage rate for privately owned automobiles (POA). In addition, the IRS’ mileage rate for medical or moving purposes is used to determine the POA rate when a Government-furnished automobile is authorized. This IRS rate also establishes the standard mileage rate for moving purposes as it pertains to official relocation. Finally, GSA’s annual privately owned airplane and motorcycle mileage reimbursement rate reviews have resulted in new CY 2016 rates. GSA conducts independent airplane and motorcycle studies that evaluate various factors, such as the cost of fuel, the depreciation of the original vehicles costs, maintenance and insurance, and/or by applying consumer price index data. FTR Bulletin 16–02 establishes the new CY 2016 POV mileage reimbursement rates for official temporary duty and relocation travel ($0.54 for POAs, $0.19 for POAs when a Government furnished automobile is authorized, $1.17 for privately owned airplanes, $0.51 for privately owned asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:17 Dec 28, 2015 Jkt 238001 For clarification of content, please contact Mr. Cy Greenidge, Office of Government-wide Policy, Office of Asset and Transportation Management, at 202–219–2349, or by email at travelpolicy@gsa.gov. Please cite Notice of FTR Bulletin 16–02. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 2016 Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) Mileage Reimbursement Rates; 2016 Standard Mileage Rate for Moving Purposes SUMMARY: DATES: GSA posts the POV mileage reimbursement rates, formerly published in 41 CFR Chapter 301, solely on the internet at www.gsa.gov/mileage. Also, posted on this site is the standard mileage rate for moving purposes. This process, implemented in FTR Amendment 2010–07, 75 FR 72965 (November 29, 2010), FTR Amendment 2007–03, 72 FR 35187 (June 27, 2007), and FTR Amendment 2007–06, 72 FR 70234 (December 11, 2007), ensures more timely updates regarding mileage reimbursement rates by GSA for Federal employees who are on official travel or relocating. Notices published periodically in the Federal Register, such as this one, and the changes posted on the GSA Web site, now constitute the only notification to Federal agencies of revisions to the POV mileage reimbursement rates and the standard mileage reimbursement rate for moving purposes.

AGENCY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Child Support Enforcement, Division of Program Innovation announces the award of a cooperative agreement in the amount of $700,000 to the Wisconsin Department for Children and Families in Madison, WI to support the evaluation of the Child Support SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 81329 Noncustodial Parent Employment Demonstration. In FY 2012, the Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) competitively awarded a cooperative agreement to the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families to conduct a 5-year evaluation of OCSE’s national demonstration called Child Support Noncustodial Parent Employment Demonstration (CSPED) under Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) number HHS–2012–ACF–OCSE–FD– 0537. Under this FOA, a total of $4.5 million of 1115 funds were made available to the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families to conduct this evaluation. The award of $700,000 the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families is required to cover the unanticipated costs of conducting the CSPED evaluation. The CSPED evaluation includes an impact evaluation using random assignment, an implementation study and a benefit-cost analysis. The evaluator is also providing evaluationrelated technical assistance to the grantees implementing CSPED. A baseline and 12 month follow-up survey are being conducted. Administrative data from multiple sources are also being collected and evaluated. A grants management information system was developed for grantees to use to conduct random assignment, enroll individuals into the project, and document service delivery. DATES: The period of support for this supplement is September 30, 2015 through September 29, 2016. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elaine Sorensen, Office of Child Support Enforcement, 330 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20201. Telephone: 202–401–5099; Email: Elaine.sorensen@ acf.hhs.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OCSE originally anticipated that there would be eight implementation sites in the CSPED demonstration and developed the Funding Opportunity Announcement for the evaluation of this demonstration accordingly. However, 8 grantees with 25 implementation sites were approved and awarded funding by OCSE to be part of CSPED under a separate funding announcement (HHS– 2012–ACF–OCSE–FD–0297). This expansion of the number of implementation sites in CSPED has increased the costs of conducting the CSPED evaluation. Furthermore, random assignment was delayed in some sites and enrollment has been slower than expected in other sites. These delays have also increased the costs of the CSPED evaluation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    DoD, GSA, and NASA published a proposed rule at 80 FR 26883 on May 
11, 2015, to implement Executive branch policy in the President's 
Climate Action Plan to procure, when feasible, alternatives to high GWP 
HFCs. FAR Case 2014-026, High Global Warming Potential 
Hydrofluorocarbons, proposed to modify FAR provision 52.223-11, Ozone-
Depleting Substances, and 52.223-12, Refrigeration Equipment and Air 
Conditioners, to address high global warming potential (GWP) 
hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs).
    For equipment and appliances that normally contain 50 or more 
pounds of HFCs or HFC blends, the clauses will now include requirements 
to track by type, equipment/application, contract, agency, and 
location, the amount in pounds of HFCs or HFC blends contained in such 
equipment and appliances delivered to the Government; or added or taken 
out of such equipment and appliances that will be maintained, repaired, 
or disposed under the contract. The contractor is required to report 
the information annually to a centralized Government Web site.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    To estimate the number of respondents affected by the reporting 
requirement in FAR 52.223-11 and 52.223-12, the Government reviewed the 
number of contracts awarded or orders issued for the Federal Supply 
Code Categories that would most commonly be used for the bulk 
materials, products used for maintenance, and equipment containing 
HFCs:
    Respondents: 3,172.
    Responses per respondent: 1.
    Total annual responses: 3,172.
    Hours per response: 8.
    Total Burden Hours: 25,376.
    Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
functions of the FAR, and will have practical utility; whether our 
estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is 
accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use 
of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology.
