Download as PDF 19758 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 87 / Friday, May 4, 2018 / Notices amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES A. How does this relate to the HCFC phaseout schedule? Section 605 of the Clean Air Act addresses the production, consumption, use, and introduction into interstate commerce of class II controlled substances (listed HCFCs) within the United States. Sections 605 and 606 taken together constitute the primary source of authority for the domestic implementation of U.S. obligations to phase out HCFCs under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer (Montreal Protocol). EPA regulations issued under sections 605 and 606 appear at 40 CFR part 82 Subpart A. Those regulations reflect the agreed Montreal Protocol HCFC phaseout schedule. One element of that phaseout schedule is a commitment to phase out HCFC production and consumption by January 1, 2020, other than production and consumption during the years 2020–2029 for the servicing of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment existing on January 1, 2020, in an amount up to 0.5% of baseline annually. See Montreal Protocol Article 2F. Consistent with that schedule, Subpart A prohibits most production and import of HCFCs as of January 1, 2020, while preserving the possibility of limited production and import of certain HCFCs for the servicing of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment manufactured before that date. See 40 CFR 82.16. Subpart A prohibits the production and import of class II controlled substances without allowances. 40 CFR 82.15(a), (b). EPA has issued rules allocating HCFC production and consumption allowances for specified regulatory periods. In 2014, EPA issued a rule titled ‘‘Adjustments to the Allowance System for Controlling HCFC Production, Import and Export, 2015– 2019’’ (79 FR 64254), which allocated chemical-specific production and consumption allowances for each year of the 2015–2019 regulatory period. Information concerning the production, consumption, and use of HCFC–123 and HCFC–124 may be relevant to a rulemaking to address the HCFC phaseout in 2020 and beyond. Prior to use of the information in the draft report to support a proposed rule, EPA is providing the public with an opportunity to review and comment on that information. B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA? EPA is seeking comment on the accuracy of the data and analysis presented in the draft report. Based on feedback, EPA intends to revise the VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:16 May 03, 2018 Jkt 244001 report and release an updated version at the same time the agency issues a proposed rule governing the 2020–2029 regulatory period. You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing your comments: Explain your views as clearly as possible; describe any assumptions that you used; provide any technical information or data you used that support your views; provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns; offer alternatives; and make sure to submit your comments by the comment period deadline identified. Please provide any published studies or raw data supporting your position. As noted previously, CBI should not be submitted through www.regulations.gov. Please work with the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section if submitting a comment containing CBI. Dated: April 30, 2018.

Title: Hearing Aid Compatibility Status Report and Section 20.19, Hearing Aid-Compatible Mobile Handsets (Hearing Aid Compatibility Act). Form Number: FCC Form 655. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities. Number of Respondents: 934 respondents; 934 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 13 hours per response (average). Frequency of Response: On occasion and annual reporting requirements and third party disclosure requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. Sections 151, 154(i), 157, 160, 201, 202, 208, 214, 301, 303, 308, 309(j), 310 and 610 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Total Annual Burden: 12,140 hours. Total Annual Cost: No costs. Privacy Impact Assessment: No impact(s). Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Information requested in the reports may include confidential information. However, covered entities are allowed to request that such materials submitted to the Commission be withheld from public inspection. Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this information collection as a revision to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) after this 60-day comment period to obtain the full three-year clearance for the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: PO 00000 Frm 00080 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 19759 collection. The revision is necessary to implement the final rules promulgated in the 2015 Fourth Report and Order, FCC 15–155 (Fourth Report and Order), which expanded the scope of the rules due to a shift from Commercial Mobile Radio Services (CMRS) to digital mobile service. We estimate that there will be a small increase in the number of respondents/responses, total annual burden hours, and total annual cost from the previously approved estimates. The collection is necessary to implement certain disclosure requirements that are part of the Commission’s wireless hearing aid compatibility rule. In a Report and Order in WT Docket No. 01–309, FCC 03–168, adopted and released in September 2003, implementing a mandate under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988, the Commission required digital wireless phone manufacturers and service providers to make certain digital wireless phones capable of effective use with hearing aids, label certain phones they sold with information about their compatibility with hearing aids, and report to the Commission (at first every six months, then on an annual basis) on the numbers and types of hearing aidcompatible phones they were producing or offering to the public. These reporting requirements were subsequently amended on several occasions, and the existing, OMB-approved collection under this OMB control number includes these modifications. On November 19, 2015, the Commission adopted final rules in a Fourth Report and Order, FCC 15–155 (Fourth Report and Order), that, among other changes, expanded the scope of the Commission’s hearing aid compatibility provisions to cover handsets used with any digital terrestrial mobile service that enables two-way real-time voice communications among members of the public or a substantial portion of the public, including through the use of preinstalled software applications. Prior to 2018, the hearing aid compatibility provisions were limited only to handsets used with two-way switched voice or data services classified as Commercial Mobile Radio Service, and only to the extent they were provided over networks meeting certain architectural requirements that enable frequency reuse and seamless handoff. As a result of the Fourth Report and Order, beginning January 1, 2018, all device manufacturers and Tier I carriers that offer handsets falling under the expanded scope of covered handsets are required to comply with the Commission’s hearing aid compatibility E:\FR\FM\04MYN1.SGM 04MYN1
