Any major disaster or emergency request must be submitted through FEMA, which evaluates the request and makes a recommendation to the President about what response action to take. If the major disaster or emergency declaration request is granted, the state or Tribe may be eligible to receive assistance under 42 U.S.C. 5170a–5170c; 5172–5186; 5189c– 5189d; and 5192.

Enterprises use a TLD to register a ‘‘domain name’’ (often simply called a domain) for use in their online services, like a website or email. Well-known .gov domains include whitehouse.gov, congress.gov, or uscourts.gov, but most .gov domains are from non-federal governments like ny.gov (State of New York) or lacounty.gov (LA County). .gov is only available to bona fide U.S.-based government organizations and publicly controlled entities. When governments use .gov, they make it harder for would-be impostors to successfully impersonate them online. Under the DOTGOV Act of 2020 (6 U.S.C. 665), CISA is responsible for the operation and security of the .gov TLD. Pursuant to that law, the .gov program at CISA works to ‘‘provide simple and secure registration of .gov internet domains’’, ‘‘ensure that domains are registered and maintained only by authorized individuals’’, and ‘‘minimize the risk of .gov internet domains whose names could mislead or confuse users’’. In order to provision .gov domains to eligible government entities and ensure adherence to the domain requirements published by CISA pursuant to 6 U.S.C. 665(c), CISA needs to collect information from requestors of .gov domains. The information will be collected on an online web portal called the ‘‘.gov registrar’’, which is built and maintained by CISA. Requestors will be asked to provide information on the characteristics of their government entity (e.g., name, type, physical location, current domain), their preferred .gov domain name (e.g., example.gov), their rationale for the name, organizational contact information (names, phone numbers, email addresses), and nameserver addresses. Only U.S.-based government organizations are eligible for .gov domains; some of these organizations may be small entities. The collection has been developed to request only the information needed to confirm eligibility and adjudicate a .gov domain request. Without this collection, CISA will be unable to assess the eligibility of requestors nor provision .gov domains to government organizations. That outcome would decrease cybersecurity for governments across the nation and minimize the public’s ability to identify governments online. In accordance with 6 U.S.C. 665(c)(4), CISA will ‘‘limit the sharing or use of any information’’ obtained through this SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\27FEN1.SGM 27FEN1
