Abstract This request is for a new information collection. Telepresence uses satellite communication from ship to shore to bring the unknown ocean to the screens of scientists and the general public in their homes, schools or offices. With technology constantly evolving it is important to address the needs of the shore based scientists and public to maintain a high level of participation. We will use voluntary surveys to identify the needs of users of data, best approaches to leverage expertise of shore based participants and to create a ‘‘Citizen Science’’ web portal for meaningful public engagement focused on ocean exploration.

Abstract This notice informs the public that the National Technical Information Service (NTIS) is requesting approval of a new information collection described in Section II for use in connection with the final rule entitled ‘‘Certification Program for Access to the Death Master File.’’ The final rule was published on June 1, 2016, and will become effective on November 28, 2016. The new information collection described in Section II, if approved, will become effective on the effective date of the final rule. II. Method of Collection Title of Information Collection: ‘‘Limited Access Death Master File Accredited Conformity Assessment Body Application for Firewalled Status’’ (Firewalled Status Application Form). Description of the need for the information and the proposed use: NTIS issued a final rule establishing a program through which persons may become eligible to obtain access to Death Master File (DMF) information about an individual within three years of that individual’s death. The final rule was promulgated under Section 203 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, Public Law 113–67 (Act). The Act prohibits the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) from disclosing DMF information during the three-year period following an individual’s death (Limited Access DMF), unless the person requesting the information has been PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 certified to access the Limited Access DMF pursuant to certain criteria in a program that the Secretary establishes. The Secretary delegated the authority to carry out Section 203 to the Director of NTIS. The final rule requires that, in order to become certified, a Person must submit a written attestation from an ‘‘Accredited Conformity Assessment Body’’ (ACAB), as defined in the final rule, that such Person has information security systems, facilities and procedures in place to protect the security of the Limited Access DMF, as required under Section 1110.102(a)(2) of the final rule. A Certified Person also must provide a new written attestation periodically for renewal of its certification as specified in the final rule. The ACAB must be independent of the Person or Certified Person seeking certification, unless it is a conformity assessment body which qualifies for ‘‘firewalled status’’ pursuant to Section 1110.502 of the final rule. The Firewalled Status Application Form collects information that NTIS will use to evaluate whether the respondent qualifies for ‘‘firewalled status’’ under the rule, and, therefore, can provide a written attestation in lieu of an independent ACAB’s attestation. This information includes specific requirements of Section 1110.502(b) of the final rule, which the respondent ACAB must certify are satisfied, and the provision of specific information by the respondent ACAB, such as the identity of the Person or Certified Person that would be the subject of the attestation and the basis upon which the certifications were made. III. Data OMB Control Number: This is a new collection. Form Number(s): NTIS FM101. Type of Review: Regular. Affected Public: Accredited Conformity Assessment Bodies seeking firewalled status under 15 CFR 1110.502 because they are ‘‘owned, managed or controlled’’ by the Person or Certified Person for whom they are providing assessment(s) and or audit(s) under the final rule for the ‘‘Certification Program for Access to the Death Master File.’’ Estimated Number of Respondents: NTIS expects to receive approximately 560 applications and renewals for certification every year, of which it expects that approximately 20% of the required assessments will be provided by Accredited Conformity Assessment Bodies that will seek firewalled status in a given year. Accordingly, NTIS estimates that it will receive E:\FR\FM\06SEN1.SGM 06SEN1
