Download as PDF ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 5 / Monday, January 8, 2024 / Notices (EPA’s) and the Administration’s commitment to achieving environmental justice and embedding environmental justice into Agency programs, EPA released the Thriving Communities Grantmaking Program (TCGM) funding opportunity. The Thriving Communities Grantmaking program is a reimagining of the longstanding Environmental Justice (EJ) Small Grants Program specifically designed to address the needs of underserved communities and marginalized groups through the provision of direct funding. Historically, the Agency has managed the EJ Small Grants directly, moving forward EPA plans to award 11+ cooperative agreement(s) to pass-through entities (referred to as Grantmakers) in collaboration with EPA to design and build their own processes to receive and evaluate competitive community project applications. This competitive subawards program called EJ Thriving Communities Subgrants will fund the initial development of community led environmental justice projects. The pass-through model removes the requirement of applying through the federal grants process and decreases the amount of time it takes to award federal funds. With this Information Collection Request (ICR), EPA seeks authorization to collect information to track progress made by the 11+ Grantmakers and their partnerships. Collection of this information enables EPA to assess and manage the TCGM Program, which ensures responsible stewardship of public funds; rigorous evidence-based learning and improvement; and transparent accountability to the American public. This ICR also requests authorization for the Grantmakers to collect input and insights from communities who seek to obtain subawards via the Thriving Communities Subgrant program, as well as stakeholders who have valuable experience and expertise in community engagement and empowerment. These information collections will enable the Grantmakers and their partners to document local priorities, needs, and norms to ensure that they develop useful and relevant outreach efforts and subgrant opportunities regionally and nationwide. Feedback about the accessibility and effectiveness of the subgrant opportunities will enable the Grantmakers to conduct selfassessments of their work and identify best practices and areas for improvement. Furthermore, each Grantmaker will offer specific application standards for a competitive community application for subaward VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:46 Jan 05, 2024 Jkt 262001 funding. Lastly, this ICR requests authorization for the Grantmakers to collect information from subrecipients, in order to track progress made in their funded projects. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: To be determined. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory for grant recipients as per reporting requirements included in EPA regulations 2 CFR parts 200 and 1500, and voluntary for public outreach information collections via surveys and focus groups. Estimated number of respondents: To be determined. This data will be available for the next public review period. Frequency of response: To be determined. This data will be available for the next public review period. Total estimated burden: To be determined. This data will be available for the next public review period. Total estimated cost: To be determined. This data will be available for the next public review period. Changes in the Estimates: This is a new collection; therefore there is no change in burden.

ACTION: Notice of a new system of records. AGENCY: SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA) is issuing public notice of an intent to introduce a new system of records entitled, ‘‘Privacy Act Requests and Appeals.’’ This notice publishes details of the new system as set forth below. DATES: This notice action shall be applicable immediately, which will become effective February 7, 2024. Comments will be accepted on or before: February 7, 2024.

Mail: Thomas Tso, Senior Agency Official for Privacy, Federal Labor Relations Authority, 1400 K Street NW, Washington, DC 20424–0001. Instructions: Do not mail written comments if they have been submitted via email. Interested persons who mail written comments must submit an original and 4 copies of each written comment, with any enclosures, on 81⁄2 x 11 inch paper. Do not deliver comments by hand. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have any questions, please contact Thomas Tso, Solicitor, Senior Agency Official for Privacy, at (771) 444–5779. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Privacy Act of 1974 requires that each agency publish notice of all the systems of records that it maintains. This document proposes the introduction of a new system of records. The ‘‘Freedom of Information Act Request and Appeal Files’’ is the system that the FLRA uses to provide the public with a single location to submit and track Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and related requests and appeals filed with the FLRA. The FLRA had used this single system to track Privacy Act requests, which are often combined with FOIA requests, see 82 FR 49813 (October 27, 2017). Other agencies have also treated Privacy Act and FOIA requests as a singular system of records. E.g., Department of Treasury, Freedom of Information Act/Privacy Act Request Records, 81 FR 78266 (Nov. 7, 2016). The FLRA now proposes a new system of records, titled ‘‘Privacy Act Requests and Appeals,’’ to separate Privacy Act request records as an independent system of records. Pursuant to the Creating Advanced Streamlined Electronic Services for Constituents Act of 2019 (‘‘CASES Act’’), Public Law 116–50, 133 Stat. 1073 (2019), the Office of Management and Budget’s M–21–04, ‘‘Modernizing Access to and Consent for Disclosure of Records Subject to the Privacy Act,’’ asks agencies to ‘‘provide a digital service option to ensure that individuals have the ability to digitally request access to or consent to disclosure of their records’’ covered by the Privacy Act. M–21–04 also asks agencies to ‘‘review SORNs governing systems of records that include Privacy Act requests for access to and consent to disclosure of records, and, if necessary, modify those SORNs, as well.’’ The FLRA determined that a separate system E:\FR\FM\08JAN1.SGM 08JAN1
