Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Amended Consent Decree Under the
Clean Water Act
On October 27, 2016, the Department
of Justice lodged a proposed amended
consent decree with the United States
District Court for the Middle District of
Pennsylvania in the lawsuit entitled
United States v. Sewer Authority of the
City of Scranton, Civil Action No. 3:09–
cv–1873.
The United States filed this lawsuit
under the Clean Water Act in 2009,
seeking injunctive relief and civil
penalties for violations of the Clean
Water Act relating to the municipal
wastewater treatment plant and
collection system owned and operated
by the Scranton Sewer Authority. The
litigation was resolved on January 31,
2013 when the court entered a consent
decree that requires the Scranton Sewer
Authority to implement a long term
control plan to address combined sewer
overflows by December 1, 2037. The
Scranton Sewer Authority now proposes
to sell its wastewater treatment plant
and collection system, and to transfer
the remaining obligations under the
consent decree, to Pennsylvania
American Water Company. The
proposed amended consent decree
would substitute Pennsylvania
American Water Company as the
defendant to the consent decree, and
release the Scranton Sewer Authority
from its obligations, in the event that the
proposed sale of the treatment plant and
collection system proceeds to closing on
or before March 31, 2017.

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/or;
• 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 this Information Cl:
1. Type of information collection:
New information collection.
2. The title of the form/collection:
Assessing the Potential Monetized
Benefits of Captioning Web Content for
Individuals Who Are Deaf or Hard of
Hearing.
3. 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
(DRS) in the Civil Rights Division.
4. Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract:
Affected Public (Primary): Individuals
who are deaf or hard of hearing will be
asked to respond.
Affected Public (Other): None.
Abstract: DOJ’s Civil Rights Division,
Disability Rights Section (DRS) is
requesting PRA approval of a new
collection that would request
information about the perceived
monetary value of captioning on Web
sites from individuals who are deaf or
hard of hearing for the purpose of
estimating the potential monetized
benefits of captioning audio and video
content on the Web. DRS is not
suggesting that people with disabilities
should be asked to pay for captioning;
rather, it intends to ask individuals
about the theoretical monetary value
that they place on the captioning of
audio and video Web content in order
to estimate how highly they value
captioning. The collection will also
request additional information about
how frequently individuals who are
deaf or hard of hearing access audio
content on Web sites, what type of
audio content they access, how often
this content is not captioned, how much
additional time (if any) they spend
trying to access content or information
when the content is not captioned, and
whether lack of captioning makes using
the Internet more difficult. This

information will enhance DRS’s ability
to monetize the benefits of any
captioning requirements imposed by
future rulemaking under the Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) for
individuals who are deaf or hard of
hearing.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: An estimated 1,070
respondents will complete the
questions. It is estimated that an average
of 10 minutes per respondent is needed
to complete the questions. DRS
estimates that nearly all of the
approximately 1,070 respondents will
fully complete the questions.
6. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The estimated public burden
associated with this collection is 178
hours. It is estimated that respondents
will take an average of 10 minutes (1⁄6
of an hour) to complete the questions.
The burden hours for collecting
respondent data sum to 178.33 hours
(1,070 respondents × 1⁄6 hours = 178 and
1⁄3 hours).

Administration (GSA) and agency roles
in regulating and managing the Federal
aviation programs that have evolved
since the Circular was last revised in
1992. The proposed changes also
address recommendations from the
Interagency Committee for Aviation
Policy (ICAP) to make a clearer
distinction between polices that apply
to the management of aircraft and
policies that apply to travel on
Government aircraft.
DATES: Interested parties should submit
comments in writing to the address

publication in the Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be
submitted online at

Instructions: All comments received
will be posted, without change or

commenters should not include
information that they do not wish to be

consider it personal or business
confidential).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Overview
Federal agencies own more than 1,200
operational aircraft to support a wide
range of missions, including firefighting, law enforcement, research and
development, and other activities.
Federal aircraft are also used in various
situations to transport certain
executives. OMB Circular A–126 sets
forth requirements to help ensure the
appropriate agency use of Government
aircraft.
Traditionally, the Circular has
focused primarily on travel policy.
When the Circular was last updated in
1992, coverage was strengthened to
restrict the operation of aircraft to
defined official purposes, restrict travel
on such aircraft, require special review
of such travel by senior officials or nonFederal travelers, and codify policies for
reimbursement. The proposed revisions
to A–126 would retain these policies but
make several refinements to address
recommendations made by the
Government Accountability Office
(GAO) in a 2014 report (GAO–14–151)
recommending clarification on reporting
exemptions for the Intelligence
Community. Currently, the Circular
exempts the reporting of classified trips,
but the reporting of unclassified data is
not explicitly addressed. To resolve this
ambiguity, the proposed revisions to the
Circular would include a clear
statement that the Intelligence
