Jkt 250001
Raw cane sugar under this quota must
be accompanied by a certificate for
quota eligibility and may be entered
until September 30, 2020. The Office of
the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR)
will allocate this increase among
supplying countries and customs areas.
On June 27, 2019, USDA established
the FY 2020 refined sugar TRQ at an
aggregate quantity of 192,000 MTRV, of
which 20,344 MTRV was reserved for
refined sugar other than specialty sugar.
On July 15, 2019, USTR allocated this
refined sugar TRQ as follows: 10,300
MTRV to Canada; 2,954 MTRV to
Mexico; 7,090 MTRV to be administered
on a first-come, first-served basis; and
171,656 MTRV for specialty sugar.
Today, the Secretary announces an
increase in the fiscal year (FY) 2020
refined sugar TRQ of 181,437 MTRV, to
a total of 373,437 MTRV. USTR will
allocate this refined sugar TRQ increase.
Only refined sugar with a sucrose
content, by weight in the dry state,
corresponding to a reading of 99.5
degrees polarity or more will be
permitted.
These actions are being taken after a
determination that additional supplies
of raw cane and refined sugar are
required in the U.S. market. USDA will
closely monitor stocks, consumption,
imports and all sugar market and
program variables on an ongoing basis
and may make further program
adjustments during FY 2020 if needed.

Under Secretary, Trade and Foreign
Agricultural Affairs.

voluntary. See 5 CFR 1320.3(c); see also
44 U.S.C. 3502(3). Before seeking
clearance from OMB, agencies are
generally required, among other things,
to publish a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning any
proposed information collection—
including extension of a previouslyapproved collection—and provide an
opportunity for comment. See 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1).
To comply with this requirement, the
Access Board is publishing this 60-day
notice for the proposed renewal of this
information collection. OMB’s approval
of the current version of the Access
Board’s Online Architectural Barriers
Act (ABA) Complaint Form is set expire
in August 2020. See 81 FR 85,926 (Nov.
29, 2016) (30-day notice); see also 81 FR
48,739 (July 26, 2016) (60-day notice).
OMB Control Number: 3014–0012.
Title: Online Architectural Barriers
Act (ABA) Complaint Form.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: The Access Board is
statutorily charged with enforcing the
ABA through, among other things,
investigation of complaints from
members of the public concerning the
accessibility of covered buildings or
facilities, namely—those owned or
leased by the Federal government, as
well as those constructed or altered
using Federal funds from grants or
loans. See 29 U.S.C. 792(b)(1), (e). At
present, over 90% of individuals elect to
submit their ABA complaints using the
Online ABA Complaint Form; the
remainder are submitted in writing,
without the need to use a hard-copy
complaint form, by email, regular mail,
or fax.
By this notice, the Access Board is
proposing to continue using essentially
the same Online ABA Complaint Form
for another three years. We propose to
make formatting-type changes only that
will update the ‘‘look and feel’’ of the
online form; we do not anticipate
making any material, substantive
revisions.
In sum, the Online ABA Complaint
Form seeks information needed by the
Access Board to investigate complaints
and, if desired, contact the complainant.
Mandatory fields are: Name and
location (by city and state) of the
building/facility at issue and
description of accessibility barrier(s).
Optional fields include the building/
facility address and the complainant’s
name; and contact information. (Where
provided, a complainant’s identity and
other personal information may not be
disclosed outside the agency without
his or her written permission.)

Jkt 250001
Individuals may also upload electronic
attachments (e.g., pictures, drawings)
relevant to their complaint, if desired.
Once a complaint is submitted, the
system automatically provides
confirmation of successful submission, a
complaint number, and the option to
print a copy of the submitted complaint.
Complainants who elect to provide an
email address as part of their contact
information also receive an
automatically generated confirmation
email.
Description of Respondents:
Individual members of the public.
Estimated Total Annual Number of
Responses: Approximately 185
individuals submit complaints using the
Online ABA Complaint Form each year.
Estimated Frequency of Response:
Occasional. Complainants submit one
complaint for each building or facility at
which they noted accessibility barriers,
regardless of the number of barriers
encountered.
Estimated Time Burden per Response:
On average, about 30 minutes per online
complaint; the time burden may vary
depending on the number of
accessibility barriers identified in a
complaint. There is no financial burden
to complainants.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: Approximately 93 hours.
Request for Comment: Comments are
invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the Access Board’s performance; (b)
the accuracy of the estimated burden; (c)
ways for the Access Board to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collection; and (d) ways
that the burden could be minimized
without reducing the quality of the
collected information. Comments will
be summarized and included in our
request for OMB’s approval of renewal
of our existing generic clearance.
