EXPORT-IMPORT BANK
[Public Notice: 2018–6008]
Agency Information Collection
Activities: Final Collection; Comment
Request
Export-Import Bank of the
United States.
ACTION: Submission for OMB review and
comments request.
AGENCY:
The Export-Import Bank of
the United States (EXIM), as a part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
SUMMARY:
11 This figure of 120 transmission entities is based
on the assumption that each agreement will be
between 1 nuclear plant and 2 transmission entities
(60 × 2 = 120). However, there is some double
counting in this figure because some transmission
entities may be party to multiple agreements with
multiple nuclear plants. The double counting does
not affect the burden estimate, and the correct
number of unique respondents will be reported to
OMB.
12 The 180 respondents affected by the reporting
requirements are also affected by the recordkeeping
requirements.
13 The reporting requirements have not changed.
The decrease in the number of respondents is due
to: a) normal fluctuations in industry (e.g.,
companies merging and splitting, and coming into
and going out of business), and b) no new
agreements being issued due to the lack of new
nuclear plants being developed.

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
DIRS filings consists of sensitive
information that for national security
and/or commercial reasons, the
Commission will treat the filings at the
time of receipt as non-public and
presumptively confidential. However,
DIRS filings will be shared with the
Department of Homeland Security and
the other Federal agencies authorized to
participate in the National Response
Framework Emergency Support
Function-2 (ESF–2)(Communications).
The Commission may publish or
otherwise share anonymized summaries
of DIRS filings at its discretion.
Needs and Uses: In response to the
events of September 11, 2001, the
Federal Communications Commission
(Commission or FCC) created an
Emergency Contact Information System
to assist the Commission in ensuring
rapid restoration of communications
capabilities after disruption by a
terrorist threat or attack, and to ensure
that public safety, public health, and
other emergency and defense personnel
have effective communications services
available to them in the immediate
aftermath of any terrorist attack within
the United States. The Commission
submitted, and OMB approved, a
collection through which key
communications providers could
voluntarily provide contact information.
The Commission’s Public Safety and
Homeland Security Bureau (PSHSB)
developed the Disaster Information
Reporting System (DIRS) that uses
electronic forms to collect Emergency
Contact Information forms and through
which participants may inform the
Commission of damage to
communications infrastructure and
facilities due to major emergencies and
may request resources for restoration.
The Commission updated the process by
increasing the number of reporting
entities to ensure inclusion of wireless,
wireline, broadcast, cable, VoIP, and
broadband internet access
communications providers. The
Commission is requesting a renewal of
the currently approved collection. It is
imperative that the Disaster Information
Reporting System be in place so that the
Commission has an accurate picture of
the communications landscape during
disasters.
Statutory authority for this collection
of information is contained in 47 U.S.C.
154(i), 218, 303(r) and 47 CFR Section
0.181(h).
