Social Security Administration. Notice of revised transaction fee for consent based Social Security number verification service. Dated: June 30, 2016. Michael Wilkins, Branch Chief, Office of Data Exchange & Policy Publications. We provide fee-based Social Security number (SSN) verification service to enrolled private businesses and government agencies who obtain a valid, signed consent form from the Social Security number holder. We originally published a notice announcing the CBSV service in the Federal Register on August 10, 2007. Based on the consent forms, we verify the number holders’ SSNs for the requesting party. The Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a(b)), section 1106 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306) and our regulation at 20 CFR 401.100, establish the legal authority for us to provide SSN verifications to third party requesters based on consent. The CBSV process provides the business community and other government entities with consent-based SSN verifications in high volume. We developed CBSV as a user-friendly, internet-based application with safeguards that will protect the public’s information. In addition to the benefit of providing high volume, centralized SSN verification services to the business community in a secure manner, CBSV provides us with cost and workload management benefits. New Information: To use CBSV, interested parties must pay a one-time non-refundable enrollment fee of $5,000. Currently, users also pay a fee of $1.40 per SSN verification transaction in advance of services. We agreed to calculate our costs periodically for providing CBSV services and adjust the fees as needed. We also agreed to notify our customers who currently use the service and allow them to cancel or continue using the service at the new transaction fee.

Florida Central Railroad Company, Inc. (Florida Central), filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR part 1152, subpart F—Exempt Abandonments and Discontinuances of Service to discontinue service over an approximately 4.4-mile portion of rail line between milepost ASD 818.1 in Eustis, through a milepost equation at the Eustis Canal Bridge where milepost ASD 817.0 = milepost ASC 815.1, to the end of the line at milepost ASC 818.4 in Umatilla, in Lake County, Fla. (the Line).1 The Line traverses U.S. Postal Service Zip Codes 32726 and 32784. Florida Central has certified that: (1) No local traffic has moved over the Line for at least two years; (2) there is no overhead traffic to be rerouted over other lines; (3) no formal complaint filed by a user of rail service on the Line (or by a state or local government entity acting on behalf of such user) regarding cessation of service over the Line is pending either with the Surface Transportation Board or any U.S. District Court or has been decided in favor of a complainant within the twoyear period; and (4) the requirements at 49 CFR 1105.12 (newspaper publication) and 49 CFR 1152.50(d)(1) (notice to governmental agencies) have been met. As a condition to this exemption, any employee adversely affected by the discontinuance of service shall be protected under Oregon Short Line Railroad—Abandonment Portion Goshen Branch Between Firth & Ammon, in Bingham & Bonneville Counties, Idaho, 360 I.C.C. 91 (1979). To address whether this condition adequately protects affected employees, a petition for partial revocation under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d) must be filed. Provided no formal expression of intent to file an offer of financial assistance (OFA) to subsidize continued rail service has been received, this exemption will become effective on August 6, 2016, unless stayed pending reconsideration. Petitions to stay that do not involve environmental issues and formal expressions of intent to file an OFA to subsidize continued rail service under 49 CFR 1152.27(c)(2) 2 must be filed by July 18, 2016.3 Petitions to reopen must be filed by July 27, 2016, with the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW., Washington, DC 20423–0001. A copy of any petition filed with the Board should be sent to Florida Central’s representative: Audrey L. Brodrick, Fletcher & Sippel LLC, 29 North Wacker Drive, Suite 920, Chicago, IL 60606. If the verified notice contains false or misleading information, the exemption is void ab initio. Board decisions and notices are available on our Web site at ‘‘WWW.STB.DOT.GOV.’’ Decided: June 30, 2016. By the Board, Rachel D. Campbell, Director, Office of Proceedings. Tia Delano, Clearance Clerk. [FR Doc. 2016–16101 Filed 7–6–16; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4915–01–P Central is a Class III common carrier that operates approximately 64 miles of rail line in central Florida. Florida Central commenced operations after acquiring several lines, including the Line, from CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT). See Fla. Cent. R.R.—Acquis. & Operation—Seaboard Sys. R.R., FD 30923 (ICC served Dec. 10, 1986). Florida Central states that, while it acquired the track assets comprising the Line from CSXT in 1986, CSXT retained ownership of the underlying right-of-way of the Line. PO 00000 1 Florida Frm 00149 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 2 Each OFA must be accompanied by the filing fee, which is currently set at $1,600. See 49 CFR 1002.2(f)(25). 3 Because Florida Central is seeking to discontinue service, not to abandon the Line, trail use/rail banking and public use conditions are not appropriate. Because there will be environmental review during abandonment, this discontinuance does not require an environmental review. E:\FR\FM\07JYN1.SGM 07JYN1

Consent Based Social Security Number Verification (CBSV) Service

AGENCY: Social Security Administration.

ACTION: Notice of revised transaction fee for consent based Social 
Security number verification service.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We provide fee-based Social Security number (SSN) verification 
service to enrolled private businesses and government agencies who 
obtain a valid, signed consent form from the Social Security number 
holder. We originally published a notice announcing the CBSV service in 
the Federal Register on August 10, 2007.
    Based on the consent forms, we verify the number holders' SSNs for 
the requesting party. The Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a(b)), 
section 1106 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306) and our 
regulation at 20 CFR 401.100, establish the legal authority for us to 
provide SSN verifications to third party requesters based on consent.
    The CBSV process provides the business community and other 
government entities with consent-based SSN verifications in high 
volume. We developed CBSV as a user-friendly, internet-based 
application with safeguards that will protect the public's information. 
In addition to the benefit of providing high volume, centralized SSN 
verification services to the business community in a secure manner, 
CBSV provides us with cost and workload management benefits.
    New Information: To use CBSV, interested parties must pay a one-
time non-refundable enrollment fee of $5,000. Currently, users also pay 
a fee of $1.40 per SSN verification transaction in advance of services. 
We agreed to calculate our costs periodically for providing CBSV 
services and adjust the fees as needed. We also agreed to notify our 
customers who currently use the service and allow them to cancel or 
continue using the service at the new transaction fee.
    Based on the most recent cost analysis, we will adjust the fiscal 
year 2017 fee to $1.00 per SSN verification transaction. New customers 
will still be responsible for the one-time $5,000 enrollment fee.

DATES: The changes described above are effective October 1, 2016.
