instruments to this collection, both of
which will be incorporated into UAC
Path. Finally, ORR plans to remove one
currently approved instrument from this
collection.
1. Care Provider Facility Tour Request
(Form A–1A): This instrument is used
by advocacy groups, faith-based
organizations, researchers, government
officials, and other stakeholders to
request tours of ORR care provider
facilities. After the request is received,
ORR documents its decision and details
regarding date and location of the tour,
if applicable, and provides the
completed form to the requester. No
revisions are currently requested; ORR
plans to continue use of this form as-is.
2. Notice to UAC for Flores Visits
(Forms A–4 & A–4s): This instrument is
used by care provider facilities to notify
UAC of upcoming visits by Flores
counsel (lawyers and volunteers from
the organization that originally
participated in the creation of the Flores
Settlement Agreement) and allow UAC
to add their name to a sign-up sheet if
they are willing to speak with Flores
counsel. ORR updated the Spanish
translation of this PDF instrument.
3. Authorization for Release of
Records (Form A–5): This instrument is
used by attorneys, legal service
providers, government agencies, and
other stakeholders to request UAC case
file records. In most cases, requesters
are required to obtain the signature of
the subject of the record request (UAC
or their parent/legal guardian or
sponsor) and a witness. ORR made the
following revisions:
Æ Added a section in which ORRfunded legal service providers are
required to certify their representation
of the child.
Æ Added a separate area where
sponsors may authorize the release of
their records.
Æ Updated the required supporting
documentation for a representative of a
federal/state government agency or the
National Center for Missing and
Exploited Children to further require
that the requester specify the scope of
their investigation and provide a case
reference number.
Æ Clarified in the instructions that
ORR will not release any records that
are clearly outside of the scope of a
government agency’s investigation
absent a court-issued subpoena or order.
4. Notification of Concern (Form A–7):
This instrument is used by home study
and post-release service caseworkers,
care provider case managers, and the
ORR National Call Center to notify ORR
of certain concerns that arise after a
UAC is released from ORR custody. This
PO 00000
Frm 00046
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

is a new instrument that ORR plans to
add to this collection.
5. Event (Form A–9): This instrument
is used by ORR care provider programs
to document high-level information
about situations that must be reported to
ORR. Creating an Event is the first step
in creating any type of incident report
(see forms A–10A to A–10C below), PLE
Report (see form A–10D below) or
Notification of Concern (see form A–7
above). After an Event is created, an
incident report or Notification of
Concern is created for each UAC
involved in the incident and linked to
the Event. For program-level events, one
PLE Report is created and linked to the
Event. Event information is visible in
each individual report/notification
report. This instrument was previously
approved as part of ORR’s various
incident reports (Forms A–10A to A–
10D). ORR is listing it separately, as a
new instrument, to better align
instruments in this collection with how
data will be entered in UAC Path. Some
fields that were previously entered in
each incident report have been moved
into this instrument so that they only
need to be entered once. The form also
contains several new fields that capture
additional information about the
location and timeframe of the event.
Please note that internal form number
A–9 was previously assigned to the
Program-Level Event Report.
6. Emergency Significant Incident
Report (SIR) and Addendum (Form A–
10A): This instrument is used by ORR
care provider programs to inform ORR
of urgent situations in which there is an
immediate threat to a child’s safety and
well-being that require instantaneous
action. In some cases, an Emergency SIR
Addendum may be required to provide
additional information obtained after
the initial report. ORR made the
following revisions:
Æ Revised the available options for
the category and subcategory fields.
Æ Added a question asking whether
the incident is related to gang/cartel
crimes, activities, or affiliation.
Æ Added fields to capture additional
detail on individuals involved in the
incident, actions taken, and video
footage.
Æ Added fields to capture additional
information related to reporting of
incidents to child protective services,
state licensing agencies, and local law
enforcement.
Æ Added a disposition field to
indicate whether the incident is closed
or if the incident is open and further
action is required.
Æ Updated functionality for the list of
individuals who need to be notified of
the incident so that it is auto-populated

and notification emails can be sent from
within the UAC Path system.
Æ Updated internal form numbering
so that reports and addendums are fall
under the same form number.
7. Significant Incident Report (SIR)
and Addendum (Form A–10B): This
instrument is used by ORR care
provider programs to inform ORR of
situations that affect, but do not
immediately threaten, the safety and
well-being of a child. In some cases, an
SIR Addendum may be required to
provide additional information obtained
after the initial report. ORR made the
following revisions:
Æ Revised the available options for
the category and subcategory fields.
Æ Added a question asking whether
the incident is related to gang/cartel
crimes, activities, or affiliation.

individuals who need to be notified of
the incident so that it is auto-populated
and notification emails can be sent from
within the UAC Path system.
Æ Updated internal form numbering
so that reports and addendums are fall
under the same form number.
8. Sexual Abuse Significant Incident
Report (SA/SIR) and Addendum (Form
A–10C): This instrument is used by ORR
care provider programs to inform ORR
of allegations of sexual harassment,
sexual abuse, and inappropriate sexual
behavior that occurred while the UAC
was in ORR custody. In some cases, an
SA/SIR Addendum may be required to
provide additional information obtained
after the initial report. ORR made the
following revisions:
Æ Revised the available options for
the category and subcategory fields.
Æ Added a question asking whether
the incident is related to gang/cartel
crimes, activities, or affiliation.

within the UAC Path system.
Æ Updated internal form numbering
so that reports and addendums are fall
under the same form number.
9. Program-Level Event (PLE) Report
and Addendum (Form A–10D): This
instrument is used by ORR care
provider programs to inform ORR of
events that may affect the entire care
provider facility, such as an active
shooter or natural disaster. An updated
PLE Report is required for events that
occur over multiple days or if the
situation changes regarding the event.
ORR made the following revisions:
Æ Revised the available options for
the category and subcategory fields.
Æ Added a question asking whether
the incident is related to gang/cartel
crimes, activities, or affiliation.

Safer Technologies Program for
Medical Devices; Guidance for
Industry and Food and Drug
Administration Staff; Availability
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice of availability.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA or Agency) is
announcing the availability of a final
guidance entitled ‘‘Safer Technologies
Program for Medical Devices.’’ This
final guidance describes a new,
voluntary program for certain medical
devices and device-led combination
products that are reasonably expected to
significantly improve the safety of
currently available treatments or
diagnostics that target an underlying
disease or condition associated with
morbidities and mortalities less serious
than those eligible for the Breakthrough
Devices Program. Devices and deviceled combination products are eligible
for this program if they are subject to
review under a premarket approval
application (PMA), De Novo
classification request (‘‘De Novo
request’’), or premarket notification
(510(k)), taking into account the specific
eligibility factors described in this
guidance. Consistent with the Agency’s
statutory mission to protect and
promote public health, FDA believes
that this ‘‘Safer Technologies Program’’
or ‘‘STeP’’ will help patients have more
timely access to these medical devices
and device-led combination products by
expediting their development,
assessment, and review, while
preserving the statutory standards for
premarket approval, De Novo marketing
authorization, and 510(k) clearance.
DATES: The announcement of the
guidance is published in the Federal
Register on January 6, 2021.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), is inviting public comments on revisions to an approved
information collection. The request consists of several forms that
allow the Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) Program to monitor care
provider facility compliance with federal laws and regulations, legal
agreements, and ORR policies and procedures; and perform other
administrative tasks.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with
the requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, ACF is soliciting public comment on the specific aspects
of the information collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be forwarded by emailing
[email protected]. Alternatively, copies can also be obtained
by writing to the Administration for Children and Families, Office of
Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE), 330 C Street SW, Washington,
DC 20201, Attn: ACF Reports Clearance Officer. All requests, emailed or
written, should be identified by the title of the information
collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: ORR plans to revise six of the eight instruments
currently approved under OMB #0970-0547. Four of the revised
instruments will be incorporated into ORR's new case management system,
UAC Path. The other two revised instruments are and will remain PDF
instruments. In addition, ORR plans to add two new instruments to this
collection, both of which will be incorporated into UAC Path. Finally,
ORR plans to remove one currently approved instrument from this
collection.
1. Care Provider Facility Tour Request (Form A-1A): This instrument
is used by advocacy groups, faith-based organizations, researchers,
government officials, and other stakeholders to request tours of ORR
care provider facilities. After the request is received, ORR documents
its decision and details regarding date and location of the tour, if
applicable, and provides the completed form to the requester. No
revisions are currently requested; ORR plans to continue use of this
form as-is.
2. Notice to UAC for Flores Visits (Forms A-4 & A-4s): This
instrument is used by care provider facilities to notify UAC of
upcoming visits by Flores counsel (lawyers and volunteers from the
organization that originally participated in the creation of the Flores
Settlement Agreement) and allow UAC to add their name to a sign-up
sheet if they are willing to speak with Flores counsel. ORR updated the
Spanish translation of this PDF instrument.
3. Authorization for Release of Records (Form A-5): This instrument
is used by attorneys, legal service providers, government agencies, and
other stakeholders to request UAC case file records. In most cases,
requesters are required to obtain the signature of the subject of the
record request (UAC or their parent/legal guardian or sponsor) and a
witness. ORR made the following revisions:
[cir] Added a section in which ORR-funded legal service providers
are required to certify their representation of the child.
[cir] Added a separate area where sponsors may authorize the
release of their records.
[cir] Updated the required supporting documentation for a
representative of a federal/state government agency or the National
Center for Missing and Exploited Children to further require that the
requester specify the scope of their investigation and provide a case
reference number.
[cir] Clarified in the instructions that ORR will not release any
records that are clearly outside of the scope of a government agency's
investigation absent a court-issued subpoena or order.
4. Notification of Concern (Form A-7): This instrument is used by
home study and post-release service caseworkers, care provider case
managers, and the ORR National Call Center to notify ORR of certain
concerns that arise after a UAC is released from ORR custody. This is a
new instrument that ORR plans to add to this collection.
5. Event (Form A-9): This instrument is used by ORR care provider
programs to document high-level information about situations that must
be reported to ORR. Creating an Event is the first step in creating any
type of incident report (see forms A-10A to A-10C below), PLE Report
(see form A-10D below) or Notification of Concern (see form A-7 above).
After an Event is created, an incident report or Notification of
Concern is created for each UAC involved in the incident and linked to
the Event. For program-level events, one PLE Report is created and
linked to the Event. Event information is visible in each individual
report/notification report. This instrument was previously approved as
part of ORR's various incident reports (Forms A-10A to A-10D). ORR is
listing it separately, as a new instrument, to better align instruments
in this collection with how data will be entered in UAC Path. Some
fields that were previously entered in each incident report have been
moved into this instrument so that they only need to be entered once.
The form also contains several new fields that capture additional
information about the location and timeframe of the event. Please note
that internal form number A-9 was previously assigned to the Program-
Level Event Report.
6. Emergency Significant Incident Report (SIR) and Addendum (Form
A-10A): This instrument is used by ORR care provider programs to inform
ORR of urgent situations in which there is an immediate threat to a
child's safety and well-being that require instantaneous action. In
some cases, an Emergency SIR Addendum may be required to provide
additional information obtained after the initial report. ORR made the
following revisions:
[cir] Revised the available options for the category and
subcategory fields.
[cir] Added a question asking whether the incident is related to
gang/cartel crimes, activities, or affiliation.
[cir] Added fields to capture additional detail on individuals
involved in the incident, actions taken, and video footage.
[cir] Added fields to capture additional information related to
reporting of incidents to child protective services, state licensing
agencies, and local law enforcement.
[cir] Added a disposition field to indicate whether the incident is
closed or if the incident is open and further action is required.
[cir] Updated functionality for the list of individuals who need to
be notified of the incident so that it is auto-populated
[[Page 546]]
and notification emails can be sent from within the UAC Path system.
[cir] Updated internal form numbering so that reports and addendums
are fall under the same form number.
7. Significant Incident Report (SIR) and Addendum (Form A-10B):
This instrument is used by ORR care provider programs to inform ORR of
situations that affect, but do not immediately threaten, the safety and
well-being of a child. In some cases, an SIR Addendum may be required
to provide additional information obtained after the initial report.
ORR made the following revisions:
[cir] Revised the available options for the category and
subcategory fields.
