Abstract

The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701, et seq., laid out a comprehensive framework for the regulation of gaming on Indian lands. Amongst other actions necessary to carry out the Commission’s statutory duties, the Act directs the Commission to monitor class II gaming conducted on Indian lands on a continuing basis in order to ensure that the Indian tribe is the primary beneficiary of the gaming operation and to protect such gaming as a means of generating tribal revenue, and to assure that gaming is conducted fairly and honestly by both the operator and players. 25 U.S.C. 2702(2), 2706(b)(1). The Act allows Indian tribes to use “electronic, computer, or other technologic aids” to conduct class II gaming activities. 25 U.S.C. 2703(7)(A). The Commission has promulgated part 547 of title 25, Code of Federal Regulations, to aid it in monitoring class II gaming facilities that use electronic, computer, or other technologic aids to conduct class II gaming.

Abstract

Under the authority of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5122, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 31 require retail alcohol beverage dealers to keep records showing the quantities of all distilled spirits, wines, and beer received, including information on from whom and when the products were received. Those regulations also require such dealers to keep records of all alcohol beverage sales of 20 or more wine gallons made to the same person at the same time. At the retail dealer’s discretion, those records may consist of commercial invoices or a book containing the required information, which the dealer must maintain at their place of business or at an alternate location under the dealer’s control approved by TTB. In addition, under the authority of the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5123, the part 31 regulations also require retail dealers to maintain the required records for at least 3 years, during which period they must be made available for TTB inspection during business hours. TTB uses the required information to ensure that the relevant provisions of the IRC are appropriately applied.

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5741 requires manufacturers of tobacco products, cigarette papers or tubes, or processed tobacco to keep records as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation. Under that authority, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR part 40 require such manufacturers to keep daily records regarding raw materials received and products manufactured, removed, returned, consumed, transferred, destroyed, lost, or disclosed as shortages. Those regulations provide that manufacturers may use usual and customary commercial records to keep and maintain the required data, provided that TTB may readily ascertain the information. Also, manufacturers must maintain the required records for 3 years and make them available for TTB inspection upon request. This information collection is necessary to protect the revenue as it provides accountability over the receipt, production, and disposition of taxable tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes, and over processed tobacco that, while not subject to tax, may be diverted to the illegal manufacture of taxable tobacco products.

Abstract

In general, chapter 52 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC, 26 U.S.C. chapter 52) imposes Federal excise tax on all tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes manufactured in, or imported into, the United States, while exempting such articles removed for export, as well as all processed tobacco, from that tax. Export warehouses receive and store such non-taxpaid articles until they are removed without payment of tax for export to a foreign country, Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin Islands, or for consumption beyond the internal revenue laws of the United States. To protect the revenue, the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5741 requires tobacco industry members, including export warehouse proprietors, to keep records as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation. Under that IRC authority, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR part 44 require export warehouse proprietors to keep records showing the date, kind, quantity, and manufacturer of all tobacco products, cigarette papers and tubes, and processed tobacco received, removed, transferred, destroyed, lost, or returned to the manufacturer or to a customs bonded warehouse proprietor. The required records are necessary to protect the revenue as they allow transactions involving non-taxpaid articles to be traced and verified to ensure that no Federal excise tax liabilities were incurred through the diversion of such articles to taxable uses.

Abstract

Under the Internal Revenue Code at 26 U.S.C. 6302, TTB collects the firearms and ammunition excise tax imposed by 26 U.S.C. 4181 on the basis of a return that taxpayers file on a quarterly basis. Section 6302 also authorizes the Secretary to issue regulations concerning the payment of taxes by electronic funds transfer (EFT). Under the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 53, taxpayers who elect to begin or discontinue payment of firearms and ammunition excise taxes by EFT must furnish a written notice to TTB regarding such actions. TTB uses those notifications to anticipate and monitor firearms and ammunition excise tax payments to ensure compliance with Federal law.

Abstract

The Advisory Circular provides non-binding recommendations on how to use existing requirements as a basis to develop a voluntary Safety Management System (SMS) program. The FAA encourages organizations to develop and implement SMS into their business processes in a way that is scalable to its unique operation, as there is not a one-size-fits-all SMS. With the exception of a one-time submission of an implementation plan, the data are not submitted to the FAA. The Safety Policy, Safety Risk Management, and Safety Assurance processes and training and communications records kept under Safety Promotion will be kept by the organization and used in its SMS. The organization will use the data it collects to identify hazards and instances on “non-compliance” with requirements and standards. In accordance with PRA filing requirements, the following questions/answers for context are provided: 1. Whether responding to the collection is mandatory, voluntary, or required to obtain or retain a benefit. This is a voluntary program; however, to initiate the voluntarily process with the FAA, organizations implementing a voluntary SMS are expected to develop and submit an SMS Implementation Plan to the FAA Office of Hazardous Materials Safety. 2. Describe the entities who must respond (e.g., class 1 railroads, operators of natural gas transmission lines, etc.). Again, this is a voluntary program; however, large organizations subject to requirements codified in Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 171-180 but not regulated through Title 14 CFR (e.g., entities performing functions such as, but not limited to, handling or shipping of dangerous goods by air) with a national or global aviation focus that wish to establish a voluntary SMS are expected to respond. 3. Whether the collection is reporting (indicate if a survey), recordkeeping, and/or disclosure. The collection entails a one-time submission to the FAA of the organization’s SMS Implementation Plan. With the exception of a one-time submission of that implementation plan, the data are not submitted to the FAA. The organization maintains its own documents and records; the FAA does not specify how or in what media the organization must do so. 4. Indicate collection frequency (e.g., bi-annual, annual, monthly, weekly, as needed. The organization’s implementation plan is submitted once to FAA for approval. As needed, other information may be requested or submitted as part of ongoing SMS evaluation. 5. Describe the information that would be reported, maintained in records, or disclosed (e.g., information about a hazardous materials incident including location, type of hazardous material, extent of consequences, etc.). As alluded to above, the information is the one-time submission of the organization’s SMS Implementation Plan. With that exception, the data are not submitted to the FAA. The organization maintains its own documents and records in a manner of its choosing. 6. Describe who would receive the information – DOT, first responders, the general public, etc. FAA Office of Hazardous Materials Safety receives the information at 9-ASH-AXH-SMS@faa.gov. 7. Succinctly describe the purpose of the collection. Information received from the collection (i.e., SMS Implementation Plan) will be used to determine consistency with FAA SMS regulations, inclusion of the mandatory SMS components, comprehend the burden on organizations, and better inform FAA’s understanding of the organizations implementing an SMS. 8. If a revision, succinctly describe the revision in the Abstract and in question 15 of the Justification document. This is a new collection, not a revision.

Abstract

The Department of Education (the Department) requests extension of this information collection regarding Institutional Eligibility regulations in §600.9 – State Authorization. These regulations were a result of negotiated rulemaking in early 2019 and the requirements to these regulations have not changed. The regulations in §600.9(c)(2)(i) require an institution to determine in accordance with the institution’s policies and procedures in which State a student is located while enrolled in a distance education or correspondence course, under either State jurisdiction or when the institution participates in a State authorization reciprocity agreement under which it is covered. The updates to the policies and procedures are not reported to the Department nor is there a specified format for such information. The regulations in §600.9(c)(2)(ii) require an institution, upon request from the Secretary, provide the written documentation of its determination of a student’s location, including the basis for such determination. There is no specific form or format for the institutions to provide this information to the Department upon request. It is anticipated that an institution would provide the pertinent portions of the policy and procedures manual to respond to such a request from the Department, but it may provide the requested information in another method.

Abstract

CMS-2328-FC requires a transparent, data-driven process for states to document that Medicaid beneficiaries have access to services covered under the Medicaid State plan to the extent that services are available to the general population in a geographic area. To meet the requirements of the final rule, states must conduct access review monitoring plans that measure: the extent that enrollee needs are met, the availability of care and qualified providers, service utilization and payment rate comparisons. The reviews will be conducted every three years for: primary care, physician specialists, behavorial health, and pre and post natal obstetric services (including labor and delivery). As states reduce or restructure provider payment rates or receive significant numbers of complaints from providers and beneficiaires about access to care, additional services must be included in the review plan and monitored for at least 3 years. We are soliciting comments on the services required for ongoing access reviews and the timelines associated with review and monitoring activities. The final rule also requires states have mechanisms for obtaining beneficiary and provider feedback on access to care, such as hotlines, surveys, ombudsman or other equivalent mechanisms and institute corrective action procedures should access issues be discovered through the access review and monitoring processes. Finally, when considering reductions to Medicaid payment rates the final rule requires states to undertake a process that gathers input from stakesholds and relies upon the information analyzed through the data reveiws on the proposed reduction or restructuring of Medicaid service payment rates.
