Overview of This Information
Collection
Title: Collection of Advance
Information from Certain
Undocumented Individuals on the Land
Border.
OMB Number: 1651–0140.
Form Number: N/A.
Current Actions: Revision.
Type of Review: Revision.
Affected Public: Individuals.
Abstract: The Department of
Homeland Security (DHS), in
consultation with U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP), has established
a process to streamline the processing of
undocumented noncitizens under Title
8 of the United States Code at certain
ports of entry (POEs), as these
individuals require secondary
processing upon their arrival, which
takes longer than when individuals
arrive with sufficient travel
documentation.
CBP is proposing extending and
amending this data collection, which
was established on an emergency basis
on May 3, 2021. This data collection
expands on the previous collection
process for persons who may warrant an
exception to the CDC’s Order
Suspending the Right To Introduce
Certain Persons from Countries Where a
Quarantinable Communicable Disease
Exists (‘‘CDC Order’’) (85 FR 65806), to
include undocumented noncitizens who
E:\FR\FM\28SEN1.SGM
28SEN1
53668
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 185 / Tuesday, September 28, 2021 / Notices
will be processed under Title 8 at the
time they arrive at the POE after the
CDC Order is rescinded, in whole or in
part. The purpose is to continue to
achieve efficiencies to process
undocumented noncitizens under Title
8 upon their arrival at the POE,
consistent with public health protocols,
space limitations, and other restrictions.
CBP collects certain biographic and
biometric information from
undocumented noncitizens prior to
their arrival at a POE, to streamline their
processing at the POE. The requested
information is that which CBP would
otherwise collect from these individuals
during primary and/or secondary
processing. This information is
voluntarily provided by undocumented
noncitizens, directly or through nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and
international organizations (IOs).
Providing this information is not a
prerequisite for processing under Title
8, but reduces the amount of data
entered by CBP Officers (CBPOs) and
the length of time an undocumented
noncitizen remains in CBP custody.
The biographic and biometric
information being collected in advance,
that would otherwise be collected
during primary and/or secondary
processing at the POEs includes, but is
not limited to, descriptive information
such as: Name, Data of birth, Country of
Birth, City of Birth, Country of
Residence, Contact Information,
Addresses, Nationality, Employment
history (optional), Travel history,
Emergency Contact (optional), U.S. and
foreign addresses, Familial Information
(optional), Marital Status (optional),
Identity Document (not a WHTI
compliant document) (optional),
Gender, Preferred Language, Height,
Weight, Eye color and Photograph.
This information is submitted to CBP
by undocumented noncitizens on a
voluntary basis, for the purpose of
facilitating and implementing CBP’s
mission. This collection is consistent
with DHS’ and CBP’s authorities,
including under 6 U.S.C. 202 and
211(c). Pursuant to these sections, DHS
and CBP are generally charged with
‘‘[s]ecuring the borders, territorial
waters, ports, terminals, waterways, and
air, land, and sea transportation systems
of the United States,’’ and
‘‘implement[ing] screening and targeting
capabilities, including the screening,
reviewing, identifying, and prioritizing
of passengers and cargo across all
international modes of transportation,
both inbound and outbound.’’
Proposed Changes: This information
collection is being changed to require
the submission of the photograph—
previously optional—for all who choose
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:35 Sep 27, 2021
Jkt 253001
to provide advance information. The
submission of a photograph in advance
will provide CBPOs with a mechanism
to match a noncitizen who arrives at the
POE with the photograph submitted in
advance, therefore identifying those
individuals, and verifying their identity.
The photograph is particularly
important for identity verification once
NGOs/IOs are no longer facilitating the
presentation of all individuals for CBP
processing (NGOs/IOs will be able to
continue assisting for some individuals
but others will be able to participate on
their own).
CBP will also allow individuals to
request to present themselves for
processing at a specific POE on a
specific day and time, although such a
request does not guarantee that an
individual will be processed at a given
time. Individuals will have the
opportunity to modify their requests
within the CBP OneTM application to an
alternate day or time. In all cases, CBP
will inspect, and process individuals
based on available capacity at the POE.
This new functionality does not require
the collection of new Personal
Identifiable Information (PII) data
elements.
Type of Information Collection:
Advance Information on Undocumented
Travelers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
91,250.
Estimated Number of Annual
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Number of Total Annual
Responses: 91,250.
Estimated Time per Response: 16
minutes.

Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports
have been made final for the
communities listed in the table below.
The FIRM and FIS report are the basis

that a community is required either to
adopt or to show evidence of having in
effect in order to qualify or remain
qualified for participation in the Federal
Emergency Management Agency’s

been established for the FIRM and,
where applicable, the supporting FIS
report showing the new or modified
flood hazard information for each
community.
The FIRM, and if
applicable, the FIS report containing the
