affected by this collection.
II. What information collection activity
or ICR does this action apply to?
Title: Collection of Information for
TSCA Mercury Inventory Reporting.
EPA ICR No.: 2567.05.
OMB Control No.: 2070–0207.
ICR status: This ICR is currently
approved through February 28, 2025.
Under the PRA, an agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of
information, unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The OMB control numbers for EPA’s
regulations in title 40 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), after
appearing in the Federal Register when
approved, are displayed either by
publication in the Federal Register or
by other appropriate means, such as on
the related collection instrument or
form, if applicable. The display of OMB
control numbers for certain EPA
regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR
part 9.
Abstract: As directed under TSCA,
EPA is required to assist in the
preparation and publication in the
Federal Register of an ‘‘inventory of
mercury supply, use, and trade in the
United States’’ (15 U.S.C. 2607(b)(10)(B)
and (D)). Based on the inventory of
information collected through this ICR,
the Agency is directed to ‘‘identify any
manufacturing processes or products
that intentionally add mercury’’ and
‘‘recommend actions, including
proposed revisions of Federal law or
regulations, to achieve further
reductions in mercury use’’ (15 U.S.C.
2607(b)(10)(C)).
The primary purpose of this ICR is to
support the development of that
inventory. In turn, the inventory will
help the Agency identify uses of
mercury and recommend means to
achieve further reductions of such uses
in commerce. In addition, the Agency
seeks to obtain the information
necessary to achieve its goal to further
reduce the use of mercury in products
and certain manufacturing processes in
order to prevent future releases to the
environment, as well as assist the
United States in reporting
implementation under the Minamata
Convention. EPA seeks to enhance its
current information on how much
mercury is used, in which products and
manufacturing processes, and whether
certain products are manufactured
domestically, imported, or exported.
Reporting is required from any person
who manufactures (including imports)

Jkt 262001
mercury or mercury-added products, as
well as any person who otherwise
intentionally uses mercury in a
manufacturing process under TSCA
section 8(b). The Agency promulgated
reporting requirements at 40 CFR part
713. To avoid duplication, EPA
coordinated the reporting with the
Interstate Mercury Education and
Reduction Clearinghouse (IMERC).
Burden statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 25 hours per
respondent annually or a total of 75
hours per respondent over the threeyear life cycle of the ICR. Burden is
defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
The ICR, which is available in the
docket along with other related
materials, provides a detailed
explanation of the collection activities
and the burden estimate that is only
briefly summarized here:
Forms: 9600–024.
Respondents/affected entities: Entities
potentially affected are those that
manufacture (including import)
mercury, manufacture (including
import) mercury containing products,
and those who intentionally use
mercury in a manufacturing process.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory, per 40 CFR 713.
Frequency of response: Triennial.
Total estimated number of potential
respondents: 105.
Total estimated average number of
responses for each respondent: 1.
Total estimated annual respondent
burden hours: 2573 hours.
Total estimated annual respondent
costs: $223,592, which includes $0 for
capital investment or maintenance and
operational costs.
III. Are there changes in the estimates
from the last approval?
There is a decrease of 14,775 hours in
the total estimated industry respondent
burden compared with that identified in
the ICR currently approved by OMB.
This decrease reflects a change in EPA’s
method of estimating the number of
expected reports. In 2021, EPA amended
the original final rule to effectuate the
vacatur ordered by the Second Circuit
Court. In this ICR, with data available
from the Mercury Inventory and with no
new changes to the rule itself, this ICR
utilizes data from the Reporting Year
2021 of the Mercury Inventory. In the
RY 2021, there were 105 submissions
(the previous ICR used an estimate of
252). This ICR assumes each respondent
completes the entire form. Wages were
also updated to 2022 dollars. These
changes represent adjustments.

IV. What is the next step in the process
for this ICR?
EPA will consider the comments
received and amend the ICR as
appropriate. The final ICR package will
then be submitted to OMB for review
and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal
Register document pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the
submission of the ICR to OMB and the
opportunity to submit additional
comments to OMB. If you have any

response times, the Commission
adopted rules and procedures to require
CMRS providers to implement locationbased routing (LBR) for wireless 911
voice calls and real-time text (RTT)
communications to 911 nationwide.
With location-based routing as
implemented under the Commission’s
rules, CMRS providers will use precise
location information to route wireless
911 voice calls and RTT
communications to 911 to the
appropriate public safety answering
point. To facilitate the implementation
of location-based routing for wireless
911 voice calls and RTT
communications to 911, and to monitor
compliance, promote transparency, and
ensure accountability, the Commission
adopted certain information collection
requirements.
Certification and reporting. The
Commission will use the information
collected pursuant to section 9.10(s)(4)
that is submitted by the CMRS providers
in their compliance certifications,
including technologies and
methodologies used, and live call data
reports to assess and monitor the
implementation of LBR for wireless 911
voice calls and RTT communications to
911 call centers nationwide. Also, the
Commission would use the data
generated by the information collections
to analyze the effectiveness of the LBR
implementation at the benchmark dates
set forth in the rules. In addition, it is
imperative that CMRS providers ensure
the privacy and security of locationbased routing information.
Section 9.10(s)(4) requires that within
60 days after each benchmark specified
in paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), and (2) of
section 9.10 of the rules, CMRS
providers must comply with the
following certification and reporting
requirements.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(i)(A), CMRS
providers must certify that they are in
compliance with the requirements
specified in paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), and
(2) of this section applicable to them.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(i)(B), CMRS
providers must identify specific
network architecture, systems, and
procedures used to comply with
paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), and (2) of this
section, including the extent to which
the CMRS provider validates location
information for routing purposes and
the validation practices used in
connection with this information.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(i)(C), CMRS
providers must certify that neither they
nor any third party they rely on to
obtain location information or
associated data used for compliance
with paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), or (2) of
this section will use such location

information or associated data for any
non-911 purpose, except with prior
express consent or as otherwise required
by law. The certification must state that
the CMRS provider and any third
parties it relies on to obtain location
information or associated data used for
compliance with paragraphs (s)(1)(i),
(ii), or (2) of this section have
implemented measures sufficient to
safeguard the privacy and security of
such location information or associated
data.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(ii)(A), CMRS
providers must collect and report
aggregate data on the routing
technologies used for all live wireless
911 voice calls in the locations specified
for live 911 call location data in
paragraph (i)(3)(ii) of this section for a
thirty-day period which begins on the
compliance date(s) specified in
paragraphs (s)(1)(i) and (ii) of this
section. CMRS providers must retain
live wireless 911 voice call data
gathered pursuant to this section for a
period of 2 years. CMRS providers must
collect and report the following data,
expressed as both a number and
percentage of the total number of live
wireless 911 voice calls for which data
is collected pursuant to this section.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(ii)(A)(1),
CMRS providers must collect and report
the data, expressed as both a number
and percentage of the total number of
live wireless 911 voice calls for which
data is collected pursuant to this
section, for live wireless 911 voice calls
routed with location-based routing
using location information that meets
the timeliness and accuracy thresholds
defined in paragraph (s)(3)(i)(A) and (B)
of this section.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(ii)(A)(2),
CMRS providers must collect and report
the data, expressed as both a number
and percentage of the total number of
live wireless 911 voice calls for which
data is collected pursuant to this
section, for live wireless 911 voice calls
routed with location-based routing
using location information that does not
meet the timeliness or accuracy
thresholds defined in paragraph
(s)(3)(i)(A) and (B) of this section.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(ii)(A)(3),
CMRS providers must collect and report
the data, expressed as both a number
and percentage of the total number of
live wireless 911 voice calls for which
data is collected pursuant to this
section, for live wireless 911 voice calls
routed using tower-based routing.
Modification of deadlines by
agreement. To monitor compliance

by the new rules, section 9.10(s)(5)
establishes notification requirements for
CMRS providers related to any
modification of deadlines between the
PSAPs and CMRS providers by mutual
agreement. Nothing in this section of the
rules shall prevent PSAPs and CMRS
providers from establishing, by mutual
consent, deadlines different from those
established for CMRS provider
compliance in paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii),
and (2) of this section. The CMRS
provider must notify the Commission of
the dates and terms of the alternate time
frame within 30 days of the parties’
agreement or by June 12, 2024,
whichever is later. The CMRS provider
must subsequently notify the
Commission of the actual date by which
it comes into compliance with the
location-based routing requirements in
paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), or (2) of section
9.10 within 30 days of that date or by
June 12, 2024, whichever is later. The
CMRS providers must file any such
notifications pursuant to this paragraph
(s)(5) in PS Docket No. 18–64.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Electronic Public Financial
Disclosure Extension Request.
Abstract: The Integrity Public
Financial Disclosure Extension Request
will be a module within OGE’s Integrity
electronic filing application. Certain
officers and high-level employees in the
executive branch are required to file
public financial disclosure reports via
the OGE Form 278e and OGE Form 278–
T for the purpose of conflict of interest
review and public disclosure. The form
is also completed by individuals who
are nominated by the President for highlevel executive branch positions
requiring Senate confirmation and
individuals entering into and departing
from other public reporting positions in
the executive branch.
In 2014, OGE sought and received
approval to incorporate the OGE Form
278e into its Integrity electronic filing
application. Integrity has been in use
since January 1, 2015, and most
executive branch public financial
disclosure filers now use Integrity to file
the OGE Form 278e and OGE Form 278–
T. Although Integrity is primarily used
by current executive branch federal
employees, it is also used to file
termination reports by certain filers who
have recently left government service.
The proposed module within Integrity
will allow filers to easily request an
extension of time to file their report.
The module can be ‘‘turned on’’ by the
filer’s reporting agency, or the agency
may choose not to use it. Requests for
extensions are currently made by calling
or emailing the filer’s agency ethics
official and require that the filer provide
a reason for requesting an extension.
The ethics official can then manually
enter the number of days granted into
Integrity and those days will be
displayed on the cover page of the
printed report, which is made public in
accordance with 5 U.S.C. 13107. If the
extension was granted because the filer
is in a combat zone, the reason for the
extension is also noted on the report.
Once the new feature is deployed and
an agency chooses to enable the feature,
their filers will request an extension
through the Integrity module. The
electronic extension request will then be
presented within the Integrity
PO 00000
Frm 00052
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
application to the appropriate ethics
official at the employing agency. If the
ethics official grants the request, the
required information will automatically
appear on the filer’s report as generated
by the Integrity application.
OGE believes that many agencies will
avail themselves of the option to use the
new module. For those that do,
automating this process will make it
easier for both the filer and the agency
ethics officials and will reduce the
chance that required information will be
omitted from the filer’s report. The
development of this feature has been
ranked a high priority by the Integrity
Advisory Council (IAC), which is
comprised of a diverse group of agencies
that have at least 90% of their financial
disclosure filers utilizing the Integrity
application. The IAC was established to
advise OGE on proposed enhancements,
improvements, and support services.
A Federal Register Notice with a 60day comment period soliciting
comments on this information
collection was published on January 24,
2024 (89 FR 4609). OGE did not receive
any comments in response.
OMB Control Number: To Be
Determined.
Type of Information Collection: New
collection.
Type of Review Request: Regular.
Affected Public: Private citizens who
file termination reports from such
positions after their government service
ends.
Estimated Annual Number of
Respondents: 511.
Estimated Time per Response: 2

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 17
hours.
Request for Comments: Public
comment is invited specifically on the
need for and practical utility of this
information collection, the accuracy of
OGE’s burden estimate, the
enhancement of quality, utility and
clarity of the information collected, and
the minimization of burden (including
the use of information technology).
Comments received in response to this
notice will be summarized for, and may
be included with, the OGE request for
OMB approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act. The comments will also
become a matter of public record.

Total Annual Burden: 2,360 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No Cost.
Needs and Uses: Technical limitations of legacy Enhanced 911 (E911)
routing can result in a Commercial Mobile Radio Service (CMRS) provider
routing a wireless 911 call to a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP)
other than the one designated by the relevant state or local 911

improve emergency response times, the Commission adopted rules and
procedures to require CMRS providers to implement location-based
routing (LBR) for wireless 911 voice calls and real-time text (RTT)
communications to 911 nationwide. With location-based routing as
implemented under the Commission's rules, CMRS providers will use

communications to 911 to the appropriate public safety answering point.
To facilitate the implementation of location-based routing for wireless
911 voice calls and RTT communications to 911, and to monitor
compliance, promote transparency, and ensure accountability, the
Commission adopted certain information collection requirements.
Certification and reporting. The Commission will use the
information collected pursuant to section 9.10(s)(4) that is submitted
by the CMRS providers in their compliance certifications, including
technologies and methodologies used, and live call data reports to
assess and monitor the implementation of LBR for wireless 911 voice
calls and RTT communications to 911 call centers nationwide. Also, the
Commission would use the data generated by the information collections
to analyze the effectiveness of the LBR implementation at the benchmark
dates set forth in the rules. In addition, it is imperative that CMRS
providers ensure the privacy and security of location-based routing
information.
Section 9.10(s)(4) requires that within 60 days after each
benchmark specified in paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), and (2) of section
9.10 of the rules, CMRS providers must comply with the following
certification and reporting requirements.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(i)(A), CMRS providers must certify that
they are in compliance with the requirements specified in paragraphs
(s)(1)(i), (ii), and (2) of this section applicable to them.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(i)(B), CMRS providers must identify
specific network architecture, systems, and procedures used to comply
with paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), and (2) of this section, including the
extent to which the CMRS provider validates location information for
routing purposes and the validation practices used in connection with
this information.
Under section 9.10(s)(4)(i)(C), CMRS providers must certify that
neither they nor any third party they rely on to obtain location
information or associated data used for compliance with paragraphs

Modification of deadlines by agreement. To monitor compliance dates
agreed to between CMRS providers and PSAPs that are different from the
compliance dates established
[[Page 35824]]
by the new rules, section 9.10(s)(5) establishes notification
requirements for CMRS providers related to any modification of
deadlines between the PSAPs and CMRS providers by mutual agreement.
Nothing in this section of the rules shall prevent PSAPs and CMRS
providers from establishing, by mutual consent, deadlines different
from those established for CMRS provider compliance in paragraphs
(s)(1)(i), (ii), and (2) of this section. The CMRS provider must notify
the Commission of the dates and terms of the alternate time frame
within 30 days of the parties' agreement or by June 12, 2024, whichever
is later. The CMRS provider must subsequently notify the Commission of
the actual date by which it comes into compliance with the location-
based routing requirements in paragraphs (s)(1)(i), (ii), or (2) of
section 9.10 within 30 days of that date or by June 12, 2024, whichever
is later. The CMRS providers must file any such notifications pursuant
to this paragraph (s)(5) in PS Docket No. 18-64.
