This 30-Day notice collects comments on the information collection requirements related to the information collection requirements for the current PPR data collection necessary to determine grantee compliance with Part B of the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 (DD Act). DATES: Submit written comments on the collection of information by August 30, 2021. ADDRESSES: Submit written comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection within 30 days of publication of this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sara Newell-Perez at (202) 795–7413 or Sara.Newell-Perez@acl.hhs.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, ACL has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is requesting approval to collect data for the State Councils on Developmental Disabilities (State Councils) Annual Program Performance Report (PPR). On an annual basis, each Council must submit a PPR to describe the extent of annual progress achievement on the 5-year State plan goals. The PPR: (1) The Council as a planning document to track progress made in meeting state plan goals; (2) the citizenry of the State as a mechanism for monitoring progress and activities on the plans of the Council; and (3) the Department as a stewardship tool for ensuring compliance with the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act and for monitoring and providing technical assistance (e.g., during site visits), and support for management decision making. Comments in Response to the 60-Day Federal Register Notice A notice published in the Federal Register on April 1, 2021 in 86 FR 17152. There was one public comment received during the 60-day FRN. Public comment indicated the performance measures are useful in addressing impact and the burden hour for template completion was a reasonable estimate. The respondent did indicate the need to streamline some of Number of respondents khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Respondent/data collection activity the narrative reporting for ease of use. ACL will explore this through additional grantee guidance and development of a web-based reporting platform with user-friendly features, such as data cloning and other such efficient features. Estimated Program Burden ACL estimates the burden associated with this collection of information as follows: The total estimated hour burden per respondent for the proposed DD Council PPR is 172 burden hours per response. The number of hours to complete the PPR multiplied by 56 State Council programs, results in a total estimated annual burden of 9,632. The burden is reflective of performance measures introduced in the FFY 2017– 2021 state plan cycle. These measures hone in on individual and family advocacy, as well as systems change advocacy. One example of these measures is a reporting of the number of promising and/or best practices improved based on results of systems change activities. The PPR is an opportunity for Councils to report on the actual data and outcomes that resulted from carrying out the new State Plan activities. This extension was previously pilot tested by a Performance Measures Workgroup consisting of nine (9) State Council representatives. This workgroup deemed the PPR necessary to accurately capture and report on the progress of the State Councils. A separate workgroup consisting of nine (9) different State Council representatives further discussed data collection methodologies as it relates to the proposed PPR template. This PPR offers a comprehensive categorization and approach to collecting data necessary to report to Congress and other interested entities.

AGENCY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:11 Jul 14, 2021 Jkt 253001 Notice of availability and request for comments. ACTION: In 2020, the Coast Guard began making broadcast notices to mariners containing locally relevant information accessible by mobile devices and the internet. Previously, the only way to obtain this information in a timely fashion was to tune in to local Coast Guard broadcasts that take place on very high frequency (VHF) marine radio two or more times per day. The new methods of information delivery have included Rich Site Summary, also known as Really Simple Syndication (RSS) feeds, email, and other means such as map-based filtering. The Coast Guard has received public feedback indicating that mariners prefer the realtime accessibility of mobile and internet access to this information over scheduled VHF broadcasts, because access is more timely, reliable, convenient, and customizable. Also, some mariners have reported that VHF broadcast notice to mariners are bothersome, because they are perceived as unnecessary radio clutter that can be distracting when maneuvering along a dock, in ports or other areas of congested traffic. The Coast Guard is considering phasing out the process of distributing this information by routine VHF radio broadcasts, and is seeking public comment. DATES: Comments must be submitted to the online docket via https:// www.regulations.gov on or before August 16, 2021. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG– 2020–0187 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https:// www.regulations.gov. See the ‘‘Public Participation and Request for Comments’’ portion of the supplementary information section for further instructions on submitting comments. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information about this document, please call or email Eugene Diotalevi, Coast Guard Navigation Center; telephone: 703–313–5800; email: Eugene.j.diotalevi@uscg.mil. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: Public Participation and Request for Comments We encourage you to submit comments (or related material) on the Coast Guard’s proposal to distribute and make available BNM information through mobile and web-based methods. We will consider all submissions received before the comment period closes. If you submit a comment, please PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 include the docket number for this notice, indicate the specific section of this document to which each comment applies, and provide a reason for each suggestion or recommendation. We encourage you to submit comments through the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https:// www.regulations.gov. If your material cannot be submitted using the portal, contact the person in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this document for alternate instructions. Documents mentioned in this notice, and all public comments, are in our online docket at https:// www.regulations.gov and can be viewed by following that website’s instructions. Additionally, if you go to the online docket and sign up for email alerts, you will be notified when comments are posted. We accept anonymous comments. All comments received will be posted without change to https:// www.regulations.gov and will include any personal information you have provided. For more about privacy and submissions in response to this document, see DHS’s eRulemaking System of Records notice (85 FR 14226, March 11, 2020). Abbreviations BNM Broadcast Notice to Mariners VHF Very High Frequency RSS Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication Discussion In a previous notice (85 FR 32408, May 29, 2020), the Coast Guard provided an overview of the existing practice of distributing broadcast notices to mariners through routing broadcasts on VHF marine radio, and described new methods of digital access to this information that was being made available through web and mobile means. The Coast Guard received two comments on the May 29, 2020 this notice; both viewed the Coast Guard’s initiative favorably. One comment, from a recognized maritime industry association, expressed support for the Coast Guard’s plans to expand options for access to this information, indicating, ‘‘its enactment will have a positive impact on reaching a greater number of mariners, expanded convenience, and improved timeliness of distribution.’’ Since publication of the May 29, 2020 notice, the Coast Guard has expanded the improved access beyond the Fifth Coast Guard District, where the system was being tested. The Coast Guard has also been actively soliciting feedback about the program through meetings E:\FR\FM\15JYN1.SGM 15JYN1
