Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 83 / Friday, April 29, 2016 / Notices
Court for the Middle District of
Louisiana in the lawsuit titled United
States and Louisiana Department of
Environmental Quality v. ORB
Exploration, LLC, Civil Action No. 16–
260–JJB–RLB.
This case concerns three oil spills,
one in 2013 and two in 2015, at
locations in the Atchafalaya River Basin,
from oil production facilities owned and
operated by ORB Exploration, LLC
(ORB), as well as ORB’s failure to
comply with a Coast Guard order issued
during the cleanup of one of the spills
or with certain Spill Prevention,
Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC)
regulations promulgated by the
Environmental Protection Agency under
the CWA. The largest spill occurred in
2013 at ORB’s facilities located at Frog
Lake in Iberville Parish, near Baton
Rouge, Louisiana, when a corroded
transfer pipeline ruptured and spilled a
large amount of crude oil, estimated at
more than 1,000 barrels, into a flooded
wetland area. The second spill occurred
in September of 2015, also at ORB’s
Frog Lake facilities. The third spill
occurred in October of 2015 at an ORB
facility at Crocodile Bayou in St. Martin
Parish, Louisiana. The SPCC violations
were discovered during a May 2015
inspection of ORB’s oil storage barge at
Frog Lake.
In the Complaint, the United States
alleges violations of Sections 301(a),
311(b)(7)(A) or (D), 311(b)(7)(B)(ii) and
311(b)(7)(C) of the CWA, 33 U.S.C.
1311(a), 1321(b)(7)(A) or (D),
1321(b)(7)(B)(ii), and 1321(b)(7)(C). In
addition, the Louisiana Department of
Environmental Quality (LDEQ) alleges
violations of La. R. S. 30:2076(A)(1) and
(3), and Louisiana Administrative Code
sections 33:IX.501.A, 33:IX.1701.B,
33:I.3915.A.3, and 33:I.3925.A, for the
discharges of oil and ORB’s failures to
file a timely report or provide updated
notice to the state hotline for reporting
spills. The Complaint seeks the
assessment of civil penalties, State
response costs, and injunctive relief for
the alleged violations. The proposed
Consent Decree resolves the civil
penalty, State response cost, and
injunctive relief claims of the United
States and LDEQ for the causes of action
alleged in the Complaint by requiring
ORB to perform corrective measures
focused on spill detection and
prevention and pay federal civil
penalties of $615,000 and State civil
penalties and response costs of
$100,000.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed Consent Decree. Comments

AGENCY:
The National Institute of
Justice (NIJ) seeks feedback from the
public on the draft test procedures
developed for the Gun Safety
Technology Challenge, published here:
https://www.nij.gov/funding/pages/fy16gun-safety-challenge.aspx. The
document describes test methods to
provide a basis to determine whether
the addition of a smart gun technology
does or does not significantly reduce the
reliability of the firearm system
compared to existing firearms.

NIJ was
tasked with supporting the President’s
Plan to Reduce Gun Violence,
specifically:
‘‘The President is directing the
Attorney General to work with
technology experts to review existing
and emerging gun safety technologies,
and to issue a report on the availability
and use of those technologies. In
addition, the Administration will issue
a challenge to the private sector to
develop innovative and cost-effective
gun safety technology and provide
prizes for those technologies that are
proven to be reliable and effective.’’
In support of this Executive action,
NIJ has conducted a technology
assessment and market survey of
existing and emerging gun safety
technologies that would be of interest to
the law enforcement and criminal
justice communities and others with an
interest in gun safety and advanced
firearm technology. These firearms or
firearms accessories can be understood
to use integrated components that
exclusively permit an authorized user or
set of users to operate or fire the gun
and automatically deactivate it under a
set of specific circumstances, reducing
the chances of accidental or purposeful
use by an unauthorized user. The
integrated gun safety technology may
include different authentication
technologies, such as radio frequency
identification and fingerprint sensors.
A report published in June 2013 by
NIJ entitled A Review of Gun Safety
Technologies (https://www.ncjrs.gov/
pdffiles1/nij/242500.pdf) examined
existing and emerging gun safety
technologies, and their availability and
use, to provide a comprehensive
perspective on firearms with integrated
advanced safety technologies. Following
the report, NIJ published a Federal
Register Notice (https://
federalregister.gov/a/2014-27368) to
receive information regarding which
firearms and firearms accessories, that
incorporate advanced safety
technologies, could be made available
by industry for testing and evaluation in
the Challenge.
NIJ now seeks an objective
demonstration of the reliability of
firearms available today with advanced
gun safety technology integrated into
the firearm. The reliability of firearms
with integrated advanced safety
technologies has been cited as a concern
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

regarding the potential performance and
user acceptance of products that may
incorporate such technologies, as
discussed in the 2013 NIJ report. It is
anticipated that the results of the
Challenge will provide a basis to
improve the general understanding of
whether the addition of a smart gun
technology does or does not
significantly reduce the reliability of the
firearm system compared to existing
firearms. It is believed that this is the
first effort to apply a methodology to
provide a rigorous and scientific
assessment of the technical performance
characteristics of these types of firearms.
With this Challenge, manufacturers
and developers of (1) firearms that
incorporate advanced safety
technologies or (2) firearms accessories
utilizing advanced safety technologies
that are intended to modify firearms
were able to submit their products for
testing and evaluation. The Challenge is
designed to proceed in an escalated
manner in three stages, including an
informational and safety review, light
duty single product testing, and more
heavy duty expanded product testing.
To assess the reliability of smart gun
technology, the U.S. Army Aberdeen
Test Center (ATC) plans to perform
firearm testing and evaluation. The
Challenge was published on October 7,
2015, and closed to submissions on
January 5, 2016.
NIJ hopes to better understand the
effect of smart gun technology on the
reliability of the firearm versus the same
or similar firearms without the added
safety technology. This Challenge seeks
‘‘apples to apples’’ comparisons to the
greatest extent possible. Testing and
evaluation is designed to prioritize the
collection and use of data that can
substantiate conclusions about the
relative performance of firearms, so that
firearms with and without advanced
gun safety technology that are similar
with respect to type, form factor, caliber,
and other physical characteristics are
tested and evaluated using a common
methodology and equivalent
ammunition. Testing and evaluation is
not designed to provide comparison of
test results against absolute performance
requirements or safety criteria, but
rather to provide a meaningful
comparison of test results of one firearm
against another similar firearm, or a
firearm with and without a relevant
safety accessory.

Director, National Institute of Justice.
