SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DOL, as part of continuing efforts to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information before submitting them to the OMB for final approval. This program helps to ensure requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements can be properly assessed. The Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs administers the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act. The Act provides benefits to workers injured in maritime employment on the navigable waters of the United States or in an adjoining area customarily used by an employer in loading, unloading, repairing, or building a vessel. In addition, several acts extend the Longshore Act’s coverage to certain other employees. Authorized insurance carriers are required to report the issuance of policies and endorsements under the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act and its extensions, the Defense Base Act, Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act and Non-Appropriated Fund Instrumentalities Act, to the Department of Labor’s Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP). 20 CFR 703.116. Carriers use the form LS–570 for this purpose. Filing the form LS–570 with OWCP’s Division of Federal Employees’, Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation binds the carrier to full liability for the named employer’s obligations under the Act or its extensions. Legal authority for this information collection is found at 33 U.S.C. 932(a) and 33 U.S.C. 939. Regulatory authority is found at 20 CFR 703.116 and 20 CFR 703.118. This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless the OMB under the PRA approves it and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:16 Jan 19, 2022 Jkt 256001 information that does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. Interested parties are encouraged to provide comments to the contact shown in the ADDRESSES section. Written comments will receive consideration, and summarized and included in the request for OMB approval of the final ICR. In order to help ensure appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB No. 1240–0004. Submitted comments will also be a matter of public record for this ICR and posted on the internet, without redaction. The DOL encourages commenters not to include personally identifiable information, confidential business data, or other sensitive statements/information in any comments. The DOL is particularly interested in comments that: • Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility. • Evaluate the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used. • Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and • Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. Agency: DOL-Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs, DFELHWC. Type of Review: Extension of currently approved collection. Title of Collection: Report of Issuance of Policy. Form: LS–570, Carrier’s Report of Issuance of Policy. OMB Control Number: 1240–0004. Affected Public: Private Sector. Estimated Number of Respondents: 400. Frequency: On occasion. Total Estimated Annual Responses: 1,500. Estimated Average Time per Response: 1 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 25 hours. Total Estimated Annual Other Cost Burden: $15.25.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 I. Background Section 70913 of the Build America, Buy America Act, Title IX of Division G of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021, Public Law 117–58, 135 Stat. 429 (the IIJA), directs the head of each Federal agency to submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and to Congress, including a separate notice to each appropriate congressional committee, a report that identifies each Federal financial assistance program for infrastructure administered by the Federal agency; and VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:16 Jan 19, 2022 Jkt 256001 3129 to publish the report in the Federal Register. 2. Sustaining Cultural Heritage Collections II. Identification of Agency Domestic Content Procurement Preferences Except for the Uniform Administrative Requirements at 2 CFR 200.322, no statutes, appropriations acts, or other Federal laws, including those specifically referenced in section 70913(b)(2) of the IIJA, provide domestic content procurement preferences applicable to NEH awards. 2 CFR 200.322 encourages Federal award recipients, to the extent permitted by law, to maximize their use of goods, products, and materials produced in the United States when procuring goods and services under Federal awards. This preference is applicable to all NEH awards. No exceptions or waivers have been granted by NEH. The Division of Preservation and Access’s Sustaining Cultural Heritage Collections program helps cultural institutions meet the complex challenge of preserving large and diverse holdings of humanities materials for future generations by supporting sustainable conservation measures that mitigate deterioration, prolong the useful life of collections, and support institutional resilience. This includes building environmental controls as part of preventive conservation. NEH awarded 45 Sustaining Cultural Heritage Collections awards between fiscal years 2019 and 2021 (18 in FY 2019, 14 in FY 2020, and 13 in FY 2021), and awarded a total of $6,953,645 in grant funding ($2,678,805 in FY 2019, $1,876,479 in FY 2020, and $2,398,361 in FY 2021). III. Description of Agency Programs Supporting Infrastructure Projects III. Identification of Deficient Agency Programs NEH has identified two Federal Assistance Listings under which it supports infrastructure projects: Promotion of the Humanities Challenge Grants (Federal Assistance Listing 45.130), and the Promotion of the Humanities Division of Preservation and Access (Federal Assistance Listing 45.149). The NEH infrastructure programs listed in Section II (Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grants and Sustaining Cultural Heritage Collections) are inconsistent with section 70914 of the IIJA. NEH will work with OMB to ensure appropriate policies and procedures are in place to comply with the requirements of section 70914 of the IIJA by May 14, 2022. 1. Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grants The Office of Challenge Programs’ Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grants: Capital Projects program supports the design, purchase, construction, restoration, or renovation of facilities for humanities activities. This includes the purchase and installation of related moveable and permanently affixed equipment for exhibiting, maintaining, monitoring, and protecting collections (whether on exhibit or in storage), and for critical building systems, such as electrical, heating ventilation and air conditioning, security, life safety, lighting, utilities, telecommunications, and energy management. The Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grants: Digital Infrastructure program supports the maintenance, modernization, and sustainability of existing digital scholarly projects and platforms. NEH awarded 69 Challenge Grants between fiscal years 2019 and 2021 (38 in FY 2019, 21 in FY 2020, and 10 in FY 2021), and awarded a total of $24,355,694 in grant funding ($14,708,445 in FY 2019, $5,581,778 in FY 2020, and $4,065,471 in FY 2021).
