purpose of this notice is to allow for 60
days of public comment.
DATES: To ensure consideration, written
comments must be submitted on or
before June 13, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Direct all written comments
to Jennifer Jessup, Departmental
Paperwork Clearance Officer,

SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
This request is for an extension of a
currently approved information
collection. The National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–
4347) and the Council on
Environmental Quality’s (CEQ)
Regulations for Implementing NEPA (40
CFR parts 1500–1508) require that
federal agencies complete an
environmental analysis for all major
federal actions significantly affecting the
environment. Those actions may
include a federal agency’s decision to
fund non-federal projects under grants
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 241001
and cooperative agreements, including
infrastructure projects. In order to
determine NEPA compliance
requirements for a project receiving
Department of Commerce (DOC) bureaulevel funding, DOC must assess
information which can only be provided
by the applicant for federal financial
assistance (grant).
The Environmental Questionnaire and
Checklist (EQC) provides federal
financial assistance applicants and DOC
staff with a tool to ensure that the
necessary project and environmental
information is obtained. The EQC was
developed to collect data concerning
potential environmental impacts that
the applicant for federal financial
assistance possesses and to transmit that
information to the Federal reviewer. The
EQC will allow for a more rapid review
of projects and facilitate DOC’s
evaluation of the potential
environmental impacts of a project and
level of NEPA documentation required.
DOC staff will use the information
provided in answers to the
questionnaire to determine compliance
requirements for NEPA and conduct
subsequent NEPA analysis as needed.
Information provided in the
questionnaire may also be used for other
regulatory review requirements
associated with the proposed project,
such as the National Historic
Preservation Act.
II. Method of Collection
The primary method of collection will
be the Internet (electronically). Some
supporting documents may be emailed,
or mailed.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0690–0028.
Form Number: CD–593.
Type of Review: Regular submission
(extension of a currently approved
collection).
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; individuals or
households; not-for-profit institutions;
state, local, or tribal government; and
Federal government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,000.
Estimated Time per Response: 3
hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 3,000.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $1,000 in miscellaneous costs
($5 × approximately 200 respondents
who would mail attachments rather
than emailing them).
IV. Request for Comments
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
PO 00000
Frm 00002
Fmt 4703

is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden
(including hours and cost) of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for OMB
approval of this information collection;
they also will become a matter of public
record.
