ACTION: 30-Day notice and request for
comments; new collection, 1601–NEW.
AGENCY:
The Department of Homeland
Security (DHS), Office for Civil Rights
and Civil Liberties, will submit the
following Information Collection
Request (ICR) to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995. DHS previously published this
information collection request (ICR) in
the Federal Register on Thursday,
September 22, 2016 at 81 FR 65390 for
a 60-day public comment period. Five
comments were received by DHS. The
purpose of this notice is to allow an
additional 30 days for public comments.
DATES: Comments are encouraged and
will be accepted until January 13, 2017.
This process is conducted in accordance
with 5 CFR 1320.1.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget. Comments should be addressed
to OMB Desk Officer, Department of
Homeland Security and sent via
electronic mail to oira_submission@
omb.eop.gov or faxed to (202) 395–5806.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Recipients
of Federal financial assistance from DHS
are required to meet certain legal
requirements relating to
nondiscrimination and
nondiscriminatory use of Federal funds.
Those requirements include ensuring
that entities receiving Federal financial
assistance from DHS do not deny
benefits or services, or otherwise
discriminate on the basis of race, color,
national origin, disability, age, or sex, in
accordance with the following
authorities: Title VI of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964 (Title VI) Public Law 88–
352, 42 U.S.C. 2000d–1 et seq., and the
Department’s implementing regulation,
6 CFR part 21 and 44 CFR part 7;

1973 (Sec. 504), Public Law 93–112, as
amended by Public Law 93–516, 29
U.S.C. 794; Title IX of the Education
Amendments of 1972 (Title IX), 20
U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and the
Department’s implementing regulations,
6 CFR part 17, and 44 CFR part 19; Age
Discrimination Act of 1975, Public Law
94–135, 42 U.S.C. 6101 et seq., and the
Department implementing regulation at
44 CFR part 7. The aforementioned civil
rights authorities also prohibit
retaliatory acts against individuals for
participating or opposing discrimination
in a complaint, investigation, or other
proceeding related to prohibited
discrimination.
DHS has an obligation to enforce
nondiscrimination requirements to
ensure that its Federally-assisted
programs and activities are
administered in a nondiscriminatory
manner. In order to carry out its
enforcement responsibilities, DHS must
obtain a signed assurance of compliance
and collect and review information from
recipients to ascertain their compliance
with applicable requirements. DHS
implementing regulations and the
Department of Justice (DOJ) regulation
Coordination of Non-discrimination in
Federally Assisted Program, 28 CFR part
42, provide for the collection of data
and information from recipients (see 28
CFR 42.406).
DHS has developed the DHS Civil
Rights Compliance Form as the primary
tool to implement this information
collection. The purpose of the
information collection is to advise
recipients of their civil rights obligation;
obtain an assurance of compliance from
each recipient, and collect pertinent
civil rights information to ascertain if
the recipient has in place adequate
policies and procedures to achieve
compliance, and to determine what, if
any, further action may be needed
(technical assistance, training,
compliance review, etc.) to ensure the
recipient is in compliance and will
carry out its programs and activities in
a nondiscriminatory manner. DHS will
make available sample policies and
procedures to assist recipients in
completing Section 4 of the Form, and
providing technical assistance directly
to recipients as needed.
DHS will use the DHS Civil Rights
Compliance Form to collect civil rights
related information from all primary
recipients of Federal financial assistance
from the Department. Primary recipients
are non-federal entities that receive
Federal financial assistance in the form
of a grant, cooperative agreement, or
other type of financial assistance
directly from the Department and not
through another recipient or ‘‘pass-
PO 00000
Frm 00055

Sfmt 4703
through’’ entity. This information
collection does not apply to subrecipients, Federal contractors (unless
the contract includes the provision of
financial assistance), nor the ultimate
beneficiaries of services, financial aid,
or other benefits from the Department.
Recipients will be required to provide
the information once every two years,
not every time a grant is awarded.
Entities whose award does not run a full
two years are required to provide the
information again if they receive a
subsequent award more than two (2)
years after the prior award. In
responding to Section 4: Required
Information, which contains the bulk of
the information collection, if the
recipient’s responses have not changed
in the two year period since their initial
submission, the recipient does not need
to resubmit the information. Instead, the
recipient will indicate ‘‘no change’’ for
each applicable item. DHS will require
recipients to submit their completed
forms and supporting information
electronically, via email, to the
Department, in an effort to minimize
administrative burden on the recipient
and the Department. DHS anticipates
that records or files that will be used to
respond to the information collection
are already maintained in electronic
format by the recipient, so providing the
information electronically will further
minimize administrative burden. DHS
will allow recipients to scan and submit
documents that are not already
maintained electronically. If the
recipient is unable to submit their
information electronically, alternative
arrangements will be made to submit
responses in hard copy.
There are no confidentiality
assurances associated with this
collection. The system of record notices
associated with this information
collection are: DHS/ALL–029—Civil
Rights and Civil Liberties Records, (July
8, 2010, 75 FR 39266) and DHS/ALL–
016—Department of Homeland Security
Correspondence Records, (November 10,
2008, 73 FR 66657).
This is a new information collection.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
which:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. 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;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1505 and Treasury Decision 85-93, published
in the Federal Register on May 29, 1985 (50 FR 21832), the interest
rate paid on applicable overpayments or underpayments of customs duties
must be in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code rate established
under 26 U.S.C. 6621 and 6622. Section 6621 provides different interest
rates applicable to overpayments: One for corporations and one for non-
corporations.
The interest rates are based on the Federal short-term rate and
determined by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on
[[Page 90371]]
behalf of the Secretary of the Treasury on a quarterly basis. The rates
effective for a quarter are determined during the first-month period of
the previous quarter.
In Revenue Ruling 2016-23, the IRS determined the rates of interest
for the calendar quarter beginning October 1, 2016, and ending on
December 31, 2016. The interest rate paid to the Treasury for
underpayments will be the Federal short-term rate (1%) plus three
percentage points (3%) for a total of four percent (4%) for both
corporations and non-corporations. For corporate overpayments, the rate
is the Federal short-term rate (1%) plus two percentage points (2%) for
a total of three percent (3%). For overpayments made by non-
corporations, the rate is the Federal short-term rate (1%) plus three
percentage points (3%) for a total of four percent (4%). These interest
rates are subject to change for the calendar quarter beginning January
1, 2017, and ending March 31, 2017.
For the convenience of the importing public and U.S. Customs and
Border Protection personnel the following list of IRS interest rates
used, covering the period from before July of 1974 to date, to
