Army Education Advisory Committee Meeting Notice, 64434-64435 [2024-17414]

Download as PDF 64434 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 152 / Wednesday, August 7, 2024 / Notices khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Biological Opinion, exempting the incidental take of a certain number of loggerhead, Kemp’s ridley, green and leatherback sea turtles in pound net operations. A non-discretionary term and condition of the Incidental Take Statement involved the reporting to NMFS of live or dead sea turtles taken in pound net operations (reflected in 50 CFR 223.206). The collection of this information on the incidental take of sea turtles in the Virginia pound net fishery is necessary to ensure sea turtles are being conserved and protected, as mandated by the ESA. Documenting the accurate occurrence of sea turtle incidental take in pound net operations will help to determine if additional regulatory actions or management measures are necessary to protect sea turtles caught in pound net operations. This information will help NMFS better assess the Virginia pound net fishery and its impacts (or lack thereof) on sea turtle populations in the Virginia Chesapeake Bay. The collection of this information is also imperative to ensure that the Incidental Take Statement is not being exceeded, the anticipated take levels are appropriate, and the effects analysis in the Biological Opinion is accurate. Further, reporting the take of live, injured sea turtles caught in pound net gear will ensure these turtles are transferred immediately to a stranding and rehabilitation center for appropriate medical treatment. including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) Evaluate the accuracy of our estimate of the time and cost burden for this proposed collection, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) Evaluate ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Minimize the reporting burden on those who are to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

ACTION: Request for information; response to public comments. AGENCY: On Tuesday, March 26, 2024, DoD published a request for information in the Federal Register that provided an opportunity for the public to submit issues that have an impact on Service members and their families where state governments are the primary agents for making positive change. Each year, DoD selects State Policy Priorities for states to consider that reduce barriers resulting from the transience and uncertainty of military life. The public submissions received will be considered by DoD in setting those priorities. For example, as a result of previous feedback provided by a non-profit educational research organization, DoD has educated states on the benefits of modifying their open enrollment policies to increase access to school options for military-connected children. This follow-up notice responds to the public comments received.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On Tuesday, March 26, 2024 (89 FR 20954), the DoD published a notice titled ‘‘Request for Information for 2026 DoD State Policy Priorities Impacting Service Members and Their Families.’’ Public comments were accepted for 30 days until April 25, 2024. Twenty public comments were received. The DoD responds to the comments as follows: Seven comments were received which identified issues for potential inclusion as a State Policy Priority. We appreciate SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 64435 your thoughtful engagement and recommendations. We respond to the comments as follows: • Bridging Support Systems During Permanent Change of Station (PCS) Transitions for Vulnerable Military Families. We recognize military families face significant disruptions in essential state support services during PCS moves. Implementing an advance enrollment system for state-run support programs, such as Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, similar to successful models in educational settings, may affect the continuity of care and support for military families during PCS transitions. • Enfranchising Military-Connected Voters. We agree military voters face significant challenges in participating in elections. Various states have differing rules regarding absentee ballot deadlines and procedures for curing ballot discrepancies, with no standardized approach specifically accommodating the unique circumstances of military voters. We commend states which have enhanced the fairness and inclusivity of the electoral process, reinforcing the democratic values that military personnel defend. • Facilitating Guardianship Transfer for Military Families. We understand that military families with guardianship responsibilities face significant legal and bureaucratic hurdles when moving between states due to permanent changes of station. The Uniform Adult Guardianship and Protective Proceedings Jurisdiction Act is an approach to enabling a more seamless transfer of guardianship for military families between all states. • Military Community Experience with Job Opportunity Scams. We share concern that military spouses are particularly vulnerable to job opportunity scams, which pose a significant threat to their financial security and well-being. No current state law or initiative requires specific protections or targeted initiatives to address the unique vulnerability of military spouses to job scams. However, states have begun addressing claim sharks who target veterans by offering veteran and military benefit services in exchange for financial compensation and other predatory practices. • Military Family Agility and Children’s Educational Success. We concur that full implementation of the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children (the Compact) enhances educational continuity and fairness for military children. The Compact has been crucial in addressing educational challenges E:\FR\FM\07AUN1.SGM 07AUN1
