Download as PDF 6498 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 24 / Wednesday, February 5, 2020 / Notices sustaining peer counseling programs; a requirement for award eligibility. According to program data, the number of local agencies operating a WIC program is 1,850. The number of local agencies submitting applications has increased annually; over 40% of eligible local agencies participated in the past five years. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2015, 77 eligible local agencies applied for an award; in FY 2016, 117 eligible local agencies applied for an award; in FY 2017, 123 eligible local agencies applied for an award; in FY 2018, 132 eligible local agencies applied for an award; and in FY 2019, 137 eligible local agencies applied for an award. Therefore, unlike the previous information collection request, the estimated number of respondents for local agency applications will not assume 30% of all eligible local WIC agencies will apply for an award annually. To better reflect the number of respondents for subsequent years, FNS estimates the annual submitted applications will continue to slowly increase, ranging from 140–180 applications submitted annually. The estimated number of respondents for the State agency application verification is derived from the total number of State WIC agencies. Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: The estimated number of responses per respondent for the WIC local agency is one, as each eligible WIC local agency will submit one application. The estimated number of responses per respondent for the WIC State agency is 2.0, as each WIC State agency will evaluate approximately 2.0 applications annually. These estimates were derived by dividing the total number of responses for the WIC Local Agency Application or the State Agency Evaluation by the respective number of respondents. Overall, the estimated number of responses per respondent across the entire collection is 1.3, which is derived by dividing the total number of responses (358) by the total estimated number of respondents (269). Estimated Total Annual Responses: 358. Estimated number respondent Respondent Responses annually per respondent Estimated Time per Response: FNS estimates the WIC local agency application response is 2.5 hours, and the WIC State agency response is 1.5 hours. Overall, the average estimated time for all of the participants is 2 hours. The estimated average number of hours per response was derived by dividing the number of estimated total hours (717), by the number of total annual responses by all respondents (358). The time for the WIC local agency is an estimated time for the agency to voluntarily review the instructions, fill out the ‘‘WIC Breastfeeding Award of Excellence’’ application, and attach supportive documentation. The time for the State WIC agency is an estimated time for the agency to review the instructions, evaluate the components of the local WIC agencies applications, and make a recommendation for an award. Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 717.0 hours. See the table below for estimated total annual burden for each type of respondent.

SUMMARY: The Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) regulation (5 CFR part 1320) implementing provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13) requires that interested members of the public and affected agencies have an opportunity to comment on information collection and recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR 1320.8(d)).

Expiration Date of Approval: July 31, 2020 Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved information collection. Abstract: RUS borrowers and other organizations providing telecommunications in rural areas, due to changes in the telecommunications industry, including deregulation and technological developments, may consider undertaking projects that provide new telecommunications services and other telecommunications services not ordinarily financed by RUS. Although some of these services may not be eligible for financing under the Rural Electrification Act of 1936 (RE Act), the services may nevertheless advance RE Act objectives where the borrower obtains financing from private lenders. To facilitate the financing of those projects and services, this program assists in facilitating funding from nonRUS sources in order to meet the growing capital needs of rural Local Exchange Carriers (LECs). The information collected for lien accommodation requests is used by RUS to ascertain a borrower’s level of financial strength and, upon agency approval of the lien accommodation, ensures that the government’s loan security interest is protected. Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.50 hours per response. Respondents: Business or other forprofit and non-profit institutions. Estimated Number of Respondents: 1. Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 1. Estimated Number of Responses: 3. Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 1.5. Copies of this information collection can be obtained from Kimble Brown, Innovation Center—Regulations Team, at (202) 720–6780, or email: kimble.brown@usda.gov. All responses to this notice will be summarized and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will also become a matter of public record.

The notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on January 30, 2020. Traxys Cometals already has authority to produce high-grade manganese and aluminum alloying agents within FTZ 158. The current request would add foreign status materials/components to the scope of authority. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), additional FTZ authority would be limited to the specific foreignstatus materials/components described in the submitted notification (as described below) and subsequently authorized by the FTZ Board. Production under FTZ procedures could exempt Traxys Cometals from customs duty payments on the foreignstatus materials/components used in export production. On its domestic sales, for the foreign-status materials/ components noted below, Traxys Cometals would be able to choose the duty rate during customs entry procedures that applies to high-grade manganese and aluminum alloying agents (duty rate ranges from 1.4% to 14%). Traxys Cometals would be able to avoid duty on foreign-status components which become scrap/waste. Customs duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign-status production equipment. The materials/components sourced from abroad include low-carbon and medium-carbon ferromanganese powder (duty rate ranges from 1.4% to 2.3%). The request indicate that low-carbon and medium-carbon ferromanganese powder are subject to special duties under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 (Section 301), depending on the country of origin. The applicable Section 301 decisions require subject merchandise to be admitted to FTZs in privileged foreign status (19 CFR 146.41). Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions shall be addressed to the Board’s Executive Secretary and sent to: ftz@trade.gov. The E:\FR\FM\05FEN1.SGM 05FEN1
