public and affected agencies concerning
the proposed collection of information
are encouraged. Your comments should
address one or more of the following
four points:
—Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Civil Rights Division,
including whether the information
will have practical utility;
—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;
—Evaluate whether and if so how the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected can be
enhanced; and
—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 submission of
responses.
Overview of Information Collection
1. Type of information collection:
New information collection.
2. The title of the form/collection:
Requirement That Movie Theaters
Provide Notice as to the Availability of
Closed Movie Captioning and Audio
Description.
The agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
Form Number: None.
Component: The applicable
component within the Department of
Justice is the Disability Rights Section in
the Civil Rights Division.
3. Affected public who will be
required to comply, as well as a brief
abstract:
Affected Public (Primary): Businesses
and not-for-profit institutions that own,
operate, or lease a movie theater that has
one or more auditoriums showing
movies with closed movie captioning
and audio description, and that provide
notice of movie showings and times. For
purposes of the proposed rule and this
notice, ‘‘movie theater’’ means a facility
other than a drive-in theater that is used
primarily for the purpose of showing
movies to the public for a fee.
Affected Public (Other): None.
Abstract: The Department’s Civil
Rights Division, Disability Rights
Section (DRS), is requesting PRA
approval of a new collection that would
require movie theaters to disclose
information to the public regarding the
availability of closed movie captioning
PO 00000
Frm 00078
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

and audio description for movies shown
in their auditoriums. On August 1, 2014,
the Department published a notice of
proposed rulemaking amending its ADA
title III regulation, 28 CFR part 36, to
specifically require movie theaters to
provide closed movie captioning and
audio description for patrons with
hearing and vision disabilities (NPRM).
79 FR 44976. The NPRM proposed a
new information collection requirement
that is the subject of this notice.
Proposed § 36.303(g)(5) stated that
‘‘movie theaters shall ensure that
communications and advertisements
intended to inform potential patrons of
movie showings and times, that are
provided by the theater through Web
sites, posters, marquees, newspapers,
telephone, and other forms of
communications, shall provide
information regarding the availability of
closed movie captioning and audio
description for each movie.’’ Movie
theaters’ disclosure of this information
will enable individuals with hearing
and vision disabilities to readily find
out which theaters are showing movies
with these features, and the times those
movies are being shown. All public
comments on the NPRM supported the
inclusion of a notice requirement in
some form.
4. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: An estimated 1,876
respondents will be required to disclose
information concerning the availability
of closed movie captioning and audio
description in their existing
communications concerning movie
showings and times.
However, this number includes movie
theaters that show analog movies
exclusively. In the NPRM, the
Department sought public comment on
whether it should defer application of
the proposed requirements for theaters
with auditoriums that show analog
movies exclusively. If the Department
decides to defer coverage of analog
auditoriums, then the number of
respondents may drop. DRS estimates
that all of the approximately 1,876
respondents will comply with this
requirement.
Based on a review of current movie
theater communications, it is estimated
that an average of 10 minutes per
respondent is needed to update existing
notices of movie showings and times
with this information. The Department
acknowledges, however, that the
amount of time it will take a respondent
to comply with this requirement will
likely vary because the amount of time
necessary depends on the number of

37644
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 112 / Friday, June 10, 2016 / Notices
movies that the respondent is able to
show at any given time.
5. Frequency: The Department
anticipates that movie theaters will
likely update their existing listings of
movie showings and times to include
information concerning the availability
of closed movie captioning and audio
description on a regular basis. The
Department’s research suggests that this
information would only need to be
updated whenever a new movie with
these features is added to the schedule.
This will vary as some movies stay on
the schedule for longer periods of time
than other movies, but the Department
estimates that movie theaters will
update their listings to include this
information weekly. If, in the future, all
movies are distributed with these
features, specific notice on a movie-bymovie basis may no longer be necessary,
and a movie theater may only need to
advise the public that it shows movies
with closed movie captioning and audio
description.
6. An estimate of the total annual
public burden (in hours) associated with
the collection: The estimated public
burden associated with this collection is
16,259 hours. It is estimated that
respondents will take an average of 10
minutes (1⁄6 of an hour) to update their
existing listings of movie showings and
times to include this information and
that such updates will occur weekly for
new movies that are added to the
schedule. The total annual public
burden hours for disclosing this
information sum to 16,258.67 hours
(1,876 respondents × 1⁄6 hours × 52
times a year = 16,258 and 2⁄3 hours).
Assuming a movie theater spends 10
minutes each week to update its notices
of moving showings and times to
include this information, the average
movie theater firm will spend 8.67
hours annually (1⁄6 hour × 52 times)
performing the necessary tasks to
comply with this requirement.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent (i.e., employer) burden,
conducts a preclearance consultation
program to provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and continuing information collection
requirements in accord with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA–95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This
program ensures that information is in
the desired format, reporting burden
(time and costs) is minimal, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection
by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH
Act or for developing information
regarding the causes and prevention of
occupational injuries, illnesses, and
accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act
also requires that OSHA obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The Standard specifies several
paperwork requirements. The following
sections describe who uses the
information collected under each
requirement as well as how they use it.
The purpose of these requirements is to
prevent death and serious injuries
among workers by ensuring that the
derrick is not used to lift loads beyond
its rated capacity and that all the ropes
are inspected for wear and tear.

Abstract: The Department's Civil Rights Division, Disability Rights

would require movie theaters to disclose information to the public
regarding the availability of closed movie captioning and audio
description for movies shown in their auditoriums. On August 1, 2014,
