ACTION: Notice of information collection. AGENCY: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing information collections. DATES: Comments are due by April 15, 2022. ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for this information collection should be sent within 60 days of publication of this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: I. Abstract The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is leading an VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:54 Feb 11, 2022 Jkt 256001 Urban Air Mobility (UAM) vehicle noise cooperative human response study involving multiple testing locations, other U.S. government agencies, academia, and industry. Overarching study goals are: 1. Obtain a wide range of UAM vehicle sounds for use in human response studies. 2. Provide insights into human response of UAM vehicle noise that will collectively be challenging for any single agency or organization to acquire. 3. Create an open database of human response to UAM vehicle noise to support follow-on studies. The UAM vehicle noise cooperative human response study is currently divided into two phases: A Feasibility Phase (Phase 1) and Phase 2. Each phase executes one or more psychoacoustic tests. Phase 1 seeks to demonstrate and refine the test methodology that will be used in Phase 2. Since UAM vehicle noise may be challenging to acquire as stimuli, the Phase 1 psychoacoustic test will use other types of aircraft noise as stimuli. Phase 2 will focus on capturing human response to UAM vehicle noise stimuli. This information collection is for the Phase 1 psychoacoustic test. A remote psychoacoustic testing platform will allow recruited test subjects to listen to NASA-provided test sound stimuli over the internet using their own computers and headphones and register their annoyance rating for each. The outcome of the Phase 1 psychoacoustic test is a demonstrated capability for ranking of sound stimuli by annoyance ratings from remote test subjects. Test subjects will electronically indicate their annoyance rating to test stimuli into an interface displayed on their own computers. III. Data Title: Remote Psychoacoustic Test for Urban Air Mobility Vehicle Noise Human Response. OMB Number: Type of review: New. Affected Public: Individuals. Estimated Annual Number of Activities: 1. Estimated Number of Respondents per Activity: 80. Annual Responses: 80. Estimated Time per Response: 80 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 107 hours. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $4,280.

Request for Comments Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of NASA, including whether the information collected has practical utility; (2) the accuracy of NASA’s estimate of the burden (including hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including automated collection techniques or the use of other forms of information technology. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and included in the request for OMB approval of this information collection. They will also become a matter of public record.

Background

    Each year, Federal agencies create billions of records. To control 
this accumulation, agency records managers prepare schedules proposing 
retention periods for records and submit these schedules for NARA's 
approval. Once approved by NARA, records schedules provide mandatory 
instructions on what happens to records when no longer needed for 
current Government business. The records schedules authorize agencies 
to preserve records of continuing value in the National Archives or to 
destroy, after a specified period, records lacking continuing 
administrative, legal, research, or other value. Some schedules are 
comprehensive and cover all the records of an agency or one of its 
major subdivisions. Most schedules, however, cover records of only one 
office or program or a few series of records. Many of these update 
previously approved schedules, and some include records proposed as 
permanent.
    Agencies may not destroy Federal records without the approval of 
the Archivist of the United States. The Archivist grants this approval 
only after thorough consideration of the records' administrative use by 
the agency of origin, the rights of the Government and of private 
people directly affected by the Government's activities, and whether or 
not the records have historical or other value. Public review and 
comment on these records schedules is part of the Archivist's 
consideration process.

Schedules Pending

    1. Department of Energy, Agency-wide, Employee Acquisitions Records 
(DAA-0434-2020-0009).
    2. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, 
Certification and Compliance Management Information System (DAA-0237-
2021-0006).
