SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: The Advisory Board was
established under the Energy Employees
Occupational Illness Compensation
Program Act of 2000 to advise the
President on a variety of policy and
technical functions required to
implement and effectively manage the
new compensation program. Key
functions of the Advisory Board include
providing advice on the development of
probability of causation guidelines
which have been promulgated by the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) as a final rule, advice on
methods of dose reconstruction which
have also been promulgated by HHS as
a final rule, advice on the scientific
validity and quality of dose estimation
and reconstruction efforts being
performed for purposes of the
compensation program, and advice on
petitions to add classes of workers to the
Special Exposure Cohort (SEC). In
December 2000, the President delegated
responsibility for funding, staffing, and
operating the Advisory Board to HHS,
which subsequently delegated this
authority to the CDC. NIOSH
implements this responsibility for CDC.
The charter was issued on August 3,
2001, renewed at appropriate intervals,
rechartered under Executive Order
13811 on February 12, 2018, and will
terminate on March 22, 2020.
Purpose: This Advisory Board is
charged with (a) providing advice to the
Secretary, HHS, on the development of
guidelines under Executive Order
13179; (b) providing advice to the
Secretary, HHS, on the scientific
validity and quality of dose
reconstruction efforts performed for this
program; and (c) upon request by the
Secretary, HHS, advising the Secretary
on whether there is a class of employees
at any Department of Energy facility
who were exposed to radiation but for
whom it is not feasible to estimate their
radiation dose, and on whether there is
reasonable likelihood that such
radiation doses may have endangered
the health of members of this class.
Matters To Be Considered: The agenda
will include discussions on: Recording
August 2019 Meeting Absentee Votes;
Work Group and Subcommittee Reports;
Update on the Status of SEC Petitions;
Plans for the December 2019 Advisory
Board Meeting; and Advisory Board

Notice of Closed Meeting
The Administration for
Community Living (ACL) is announcing
an opportunity for the public to
comment on the proposed collection of
information listed above. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the
PRA), Federal agencies are required to
publish a notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for
public comment in response to the
notice.
This notice solicits comments on the
Proposed Revision for the information
collection requirements related to State
Program Report.
DATES: Comments on the collection of
information must be submitted
electronically by 11:59 p.m. (EST) or
postmarked by October 29, 2019.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the collection of
information to: Susan.Jenkins@
acl.hhs.gov. Submit written comments
on the collection of information to: U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services: Administration for
Community Living, Washington, DC

SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00060
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ includes
agency requests or requirements that
members of the public submit reports,
keep records, or provide information to
a third party. The PRA requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, ACL is publishing a notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following
collection of information, ACL invites
comments on our burden estimates or
any other aspect of this collection of
information, including:
(1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the
proper performance of ACL’s functions,
including whether the information will
have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of ACL’s estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used
to determine burden estimates;
(3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
ACL is requesting approval from OMB
to continue collecting data after
expiration on 12/31/2019. This is a
revision request to the 2016 approved
version of the Reporting Requirements
for Title III and VII State Program Report
Definitions. The currently approved
version of the State Program Report
(SPR) includes language intended for
usage in FY 2023. Since these data
elements are not required for usage until
FY 2023, under the Paperwork
Reduction Act ACL is required to
update the information collection (IC) to
contain only the language and
requirements for collection years 2020–
2023. Removing the proposed FY 2023
language from the currently approved
SPR causes a revision to OMB 0985–
0008. ACL intends to seek OMB
approval under a new OMB control
number for the FY 2023–2026 data
elements allowing usage of 0985–0008
