Information collections contained in Reducing Barriers to Medical Use Licensing proposed rule (10 CFR Part 35, Nuclear Materials Events Database, and NRC Form 313 series)

Key Information

Abstract

The NRC is proposing to amend its regulations to reduce barriers to medical use licensing. This proposed rule would reduce overly prescriptive requirements, increase regulatory flexibility, and modernize radiation safety practices for the medical use of byproduct material. It also would enable more efficient and predictable licensing for emerging medical technologies and reduce unnecessary burden associated with training and experience requirements for medical authorized users. This effort is consistent with, and implements, the direction in Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” which directs the NRC to conduct a comprehensive review and revision of its regulations. This proposed rule addresses a wide range of topics, including the following areas that result in new or revised recordkeeping and reporting requirements involving: • Research applications, • Applications, • Temporary RSOs, • Instrument calibrations, • Medical events, • Dose to an embryo/fetus or a nursing child, • Generator elutions, • Radiation Safety Committees, • Mobile medical services, • Radiation safety, • Continuing education, • Decay-in-storage, • Permissible concentrations for generator-produced radionuclides, • Microsource brachytherapy, and • Safety precautions for patients not eligible for release.

Generic Clearance for the Collection of Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey (MCBS) Respondent “Pulse” Feedback (CMS-10948)

Key Information

Abstract

This generic clearance will provide a proactive, streamlined process for the rapid collection of data via a new tool, the MCBS Pulse, that will allow CMS to collect time-sensitive data (“Pulse” feedback) from beneficiaries on emerging topics of interest or feedback on the program. By leveraging the MCBS framework already in place, this mechanism will efficiently deliver new information that focuses on capturing beneficiary knowledge, practice, perspectives, and opinions about various topics of importance to CMS programs, thereby improving program planning and reducing administrative complexity. Data collection may also inform early question development efforts that would be further tested under the existing MCBS generic clearance (0938-1275) and would inform potential future topics for the MCBS and other CMS-administered surveys.

Position Limits

Key Information

Abstract

The information received under OMB control no. 3038-0013 is currently submitted by exchanges (defined under the regulations as Designated Contract Markets) or by market participants. The CFTC currently uses this information to administer its speculative position limit regime -- as mandated by Congress in Section 4a of the Commodity Exchange Act (Act) which allows the Commission to set speculative limits in any commodity for future delivery in order to prevent excessive speculation and to ensure the validity of exemptions granted from that regime. The reporting and recordkeeping requirements are used to verify exemptions from position limit requirements on a universe of 25 physically-settled futures contracts and their linked cash-settled futures, options on futures, and “economically equivalent” swaps. Further, the collections are necessary to determine whether exemptions from position aggregation requirements have been properly applied. The information is also critical in the operation of the Commission’s activities to monitor and surveil its markets, including to protect against excessive speculation and market manipulation.

State-based Marketplace Annual Reporting Tool (SMART) (CMS-10507)

Key Information

Abstract

The Affordable Care Act (ACA). The ACA creates new competitive private health insurance markets - referred to as State-based Marketplaces (SBMs) - that will give millions of Americans and small businesses access to affordable healthcare coverage. HHS provides oversight and monitoring of SBMs to ensure they maintain adequate operational systems. Effective and efficient oversight of Marketplaces will help ensure that affordable and quality health coverage is available to all Americans through monitoring, reporting, and oversight of financial and other Marketplace activities. The SMAR is the primary vehicle to insure comprehensive compliance with all reporting requirements contained in the ACA and applicable Federal Regulations. It is specifically called for in Section 1313(a)(1) of the Act which requires an SBM to keep an accurate accounting of all activities, receipts, and expenditures, and to submit a report annually to the Secretary concerning such accounting. Instructions governing specific facets of the activities covered by the report are contained both in the Act and in various sections of applicable Federal Regulations. CMS has designed the SMAR to reduce the data collection to the maximum extent possible. While it is intended as a comprehensive compliance review to ensure SBM are fulfilling their statutory requirements, very little additional data gathering is required to complete the form. The respondents can answer most questions by attestations and uploading existing documents. Respondents complete the report entirely online.

CW-1 Application for Temporary Employment Certification

Key Information

Abstract

This Information Collection Request (ICR) seeks approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) to extend and revise this collection made necessary by a statutory requirement for a CW-1 temporary labor certification. More specifically, the Department of Labor (DOL or Department) proposes to extend the Form ETA-9142C, Application for Temporary Employment Certification and appendices, and Form ETA-9141C, Application for Prevailing Wage Determination to carry out responsibilities created for the Department under the Northern Mariana Islands U.S. Workforce Act of 2018 (Pub. L. 115-218). The ETA Office of Foreign Labor Certification (OFLC) will continue to use this information collection to meet its statutory and regulatory responsibilities for administering the CW-1 temporary labor certification program. An employer seeking to employ CW-1 workers must file a completed CW-1 Application for Temporary Employment Certification (Form ETA-9142C), all appropriate appendices, and a valid Application for Prevailing Wage Determination, with the OFLC National Processing Center (NPC). These forms and all supporting documentation constitute the CW-1 application submitted by an employer to secure a temporary labor certification determination from the OFLC.

Workforce Recruitment Program

Key Information

Abstract

The Workforce Recruitment Program (WRP) is a recruitment program that connects students with disabilities to an opportunity for employment. Through participating colleges and universities, WRP creates a talent pool for Federal and interested private-sector employers nationwide to find college students and recent graduates with disabilities, including veterans, who are eager to demonstrate their abilities in the workplace through internships or permanent jobs. Candidates are not placed into jobs; they are simply applying to be part of a resume talent database of postsecondary students and recent graduates with disabilities that is made available to Federal employers directly and to the private sector through a contractor. Employers will then reach out to candidates directly if they are interested in interviewing or hiring them for a specific position. Candidates also have the opportunity to participate in program career development activities and receive communication about hiring fairs and other federal opportunities shared with the WRP.

The Application Status shows users when SSA received the application, if we requested additional documents (e.g., military discharge papers, W2s, birth records, etc.), and provides the address for the office that is processing their application. Once SSA makes a decision on a claim, we post a copy of the decision notice online for the user to view. There are some exceptions to posting a copy online, such as disability denial notices (even if filed electronically) or claims that users did not file via the Internet, as we may not have those notices available for online review. Users access this application either via http://www.ssa.gov/onlineservices/ or through the National 800 Number. Respondents are Social Security claimants.

Protection and Advocacy for Beneficiaries of Social Security (PABSS)

Key Information

Abstract

The PABSS projects are part of Social Security’s strategy to increase the number of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or SSI recipients who return to work and achieve financial independence and self-sufficiency as the result of receiving support, representation, advocacy, or other services. PABSS provides: (1) Information and advice about obtaining vocational rehabilitation and employment services; and (2) advocacy or other services a beneficiary with a disability may need to secure, maintain, or regain gainful employment. The PABSS Annual Program Performance Report collects statistical information from each of the PABSS projects in an effort to manage and capture program performance and quantitative data. Social Security uses the information to evaluate the efficiency of the program, and to ensure beneficiaries are receiving quality services. The project data is valuable to Social Security in its analysis of and future planning for the SSDI and SSI programs. The respondents are the 57 PABSS project sites, and recipients of SSDI and SSI programs.

Technical Updates to Applicability of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Reduced Benefit Rate for Individuals Residing in Medical Treatment Facilities. 20 CFR 416.708(k)

Key Information

Abstract

SSA uses this information collection to determine SSI eligibility or the benefit amount for SSI recipients who enter or leave institutions. SSA personnel collect this information directly from SSI recipients, or from someone reporting on their behalf. An SSI recipient who enters an institution may be unable to report; therefore, a family member sometimes makes this report on behalf of the recipient. When contacting SSA, the recipient or family member of the recipient provides the name of the institution; the date of admission; and the expected date of discharge. The respondents are SSI recipients who enter or leave an institution.

Notification of Substantial Risk of Injury to Health and the Environment under TSCA Section 8(e) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) section 8(e) states, any person who manufactures, [imports,] processes, or distributes in commerce a chemical substance or mixture and who obtains information which reasonably supports the conclusion that such substance or mixture presents a substantial risk of injury to health or the environment shall immediately inform the [EPA] Administrator of such information unless such person has actual knowledge that the Administrator has been adequately informed of such information. (15 U.S.C. 2607(e); see Ref.1.) EPA receives and screens TSCA section 8(e) submissions including a wide range of chemical toxicity/exposure information on numerous chemical substances and mixtures. Although EPAs receipt of TSCA section 8(e) information does not necessarily trigger immediate regulatory action under TSCA or other authorities administered by EPA, all TSCA section 8(e) submissions receive screening level evaluations by EPAs Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) to identify priorities for further Agency action and appropriate referrals to other programs. EPA offers an electronic reporting option for those required to submit a notification of substantial risk under TSCA section 8(e) and those who wish to voluntarily submit For Your Information (FYI) notices by registering and submitting information electronically using the Agency's Central Data Exchange (CDX). TSCA section 8(e) data on newly discovered chemical hazards/risks are available via EPAs ChemView website (https://chemview.epa.gov/chemview).
