the 2019–2021 STAA Committee
identified in this notice. Nominations
should be submitted in electronic
format (preferred) following the
instructions for ‘‘Nominating Experts to
Advisory Panels and Ad hoc
Committees Being Formed,’’ provided
on the SAB website (see the
‘‘Nomination of Experts’’ link under
‘‘Current Activities’’) at https://
www.epa.gov.sab.
To receive full consideration, EPA’s
SAB Staff Office requests contact
information about the person making
the nomination; contact information
about the nominee; the disciplinary and
specific areas of expertise of the
nominee; the nominee’s resume or
curriculum vitae; sources of recent grant
and/or contract support; and a
biographical sketch of the nominee
indicating current position, educational
background, research activities, and

additional experts identified by the SAB
Staff, will be posted in a List of
Candidates on the SAB website at
https://www.epa.gov/sab. Public
comments on the List of Candidates will
be accepted for 21 days. The public will
be requested to provide relevant
information or other documentation on
nominees that the SAB Staff Office
should consider in evaluating
candidates.
For the EPA SAB Staff Office, a
balanced review committee includes
candidates who possess the necessary
domains of knowledge, the relevant
scientific perspectives (which, among
other factors, can be influenced by work
history and affiliation), and the
collective breadth of experience. The
SAB Staff Office will consider public
comments on the List of Candidates,
information provided by the candidates
themselves, and background
information independently gathered by
the SAB Staff Office. Selection criteria
to be used for committee membership
include: (a) Scientific and/or technical
expertise, knowledge, and experience
(primary factors); (b) availability and
willingness to serve; (c) absence of
financial conflicts of interest; (d)
absence of an appearance of a loss of
impartiality; (e) skills working in
committees, subcommittees and
advisory committees; and, (f) for the
committee as a whole, diversity of
expertise and scientific points of view.
The SAB Staff Office’s evaluation of
an absence of financial conflicts of
interest will include a review of the
‘‘Confidential Financial Disclosure
Form for Special Government
Employees’’ (EPA Form 3110–48). This
confidential form allows government
officials to determine whether there is a
statutory conflict between a person’s
public responsibilities (which include
membership on an EPA federal advisory
committee) and private interests and
activities, or the appearance of a loss of
impartiality, as defined by federal
regulation. The form may be viewed and

[OMB 3060–0496]
Information Collection Being Reviewed
by the Federal Communications
Commission Under Delegated
Authority
Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
As part of its continuing effort
to reduce paperwork burdens, and as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC or
the Commission) invites the general
public and other Federal agencies to
take this opportunity to comment on the
following information collection.
Comments are requested concerning:
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimate; ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and ways to
further reduce the information
collection burden on small business
concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control
number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
PRA that does not display a valid Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before February 8,
2019. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, you should
advise the contact listed below as soon
as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to
Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email PRA@
fcc.gov and to Nicole.Ongele@fcc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
additional information about the
information collection, contact Nicole
Ongele at (202) 418–2991.

Title: ARMIS Operating Data Report.
SUMMARY:
E:\FR\FM\10DEN1.SGM
10DEN1
63504
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 236 / Monday, December 10, 2018 / Notices
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 49 respondents; 49
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 35
hours.
Frequency of Response: Annual
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Mandatory.
Statutory authority for this information
collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 219
and 220 of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended.
Total Annual Burden: 1,715 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Ordinarily questions of a sensitive
nature are not involved in the ARMIS
Report 43–08. The Commission
contends that areas in which detailed
information is required are fully subject
to regulation and the issue of data being
regarded as sensitive will arise in
special circumstances only. In such
circumstances, respondents may request
materials or information submitted to
the Commission be withheld from
public inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of
the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The information
contained in FCC Report 43–08 has
helped the Commission fulfill its
regulatory responsibilities. Automated
reporting of these data greatly enhances
the Commission’s ability to process and
analyze the extensive amounts of data
provided in the reports. Automating and
organizing data submitted to the
Commission facilitate the timely and
efficient analysis of revenue
requirements, rates of return and price
caps, and provide an improved basis for
auditing and other oversight functions.
Automated reporting also enhances the
Commission’s ability to quantify the
effects of policy proposals. The
Commission has granted all carriers
forbearance from many of the
requirements of ARMIS 43–08
conditioned on approval of a data
retention compliance plan and
continued submission of certain ARMIS
43–08 data related to access lines in
service to customers.
