NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) Data Submission Request Form - Center for Cancer Genomics (CCG) (NCI)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for OMB to approve an extension for an additional three (3) years. The purpose of the NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) Data Submission Request Form is to provide a vehicle for investigators to request submission of their cancer genomic data into the GDC to support data sharing. The purpose is also to provide a mechanism for the GDC Data Submission Review Committee to review and assess the data submission request for applicability to the GDC mission. The scope of the form involves obtaining information from investigators that: 1) would like to submit data about their study into the GDC, 2) are affiliated with studies that adhere to GDC data submission conditions. The benefits of the collection are that it provides the needed information for investigators to understand the types of studies and data that the GDC supports. It also allows for a standard mechanism for the GDC to assess incoming data submission requests.

Initial Request for State Implemented Moratorium Form (CMS-10628)

Key Information

Abstract

Congress has enacted section 1866 (j)(7) of the Social Security Act, which allows for the imposition of temporary moratorium. CMS promulgated 42 CFR 424.570 in order to comply with that statute, which requires that prior to implementing state Medicaid moratoria the state Medicaid agency must notify the Secretary in writing , including all of the details of the moratoria, and obtain the Secretary’s concurrence with the imposition of the moratoria. The “Initial Request for State Medicaid Implemented Moratorium” has been created to collect that data, in a uniform manner, which the states report to CMS when they request a moratorium.

Survey of State Government Research & Development

Key Information

Abstract

The Survey of State Government Research and Development (SGRD) provides comprehensive, uniform statistics regarding the extent of research and development (R&D) activity performed and funded by departments and agencies in each of the nation's 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. The Census Bureau conducts this survey on behalf of the U.S. National Science Foundation’s (NSF) National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES). NCSES sponsors surveys of R&D activities of businesses, government, higher education, and other private nonprofit organizations. The results of these surveys provide a consistent information base for both federal and state government officials, industry professionals, and researchers to use in formulating public policy and planning in science and technology. These surveys allow for the analysis of current and historical trends of R&D in the U.S. and in international comparisons of R&D with other countries. The data collected from the SGRD fills a void that previously existed for collection of R&D activities. Although NCSES conducted periodic data collections of state government R&D in 1995, 1988 and 1987, more frequent collection was necessary to account for the changing dynamic of state governments’ role in performing and funding R&D and their role as fiduciary intermediaries of federal funds for R&D. The survey is a census of state government departments, agencies, commissions, public authorities, and other dependent entities as defined by the Census Bureau’s Census of Governments program, that performed or funded R&D activities in a given fiscal year.

FERC-549E, Price Index Data Providers and Developers

Key Information

Abstract

The Commission set forth standards for price index developers to demonstrate that their internal processes were sufficient to qualify as a Commission-approved price index developer and, thus, have their price indices referenced in Commission-jurisdictional tariffs. Price index developers seeking approval voluntarily provided written statements to the Commission to explain how they met these standards. The Commission used the information collected from these price index developers to determine whether the Commission would approve the use of their indices in Commission-jurisdictional tariffs. After the Initial Policy Statement was issued thirteen price index developers sought approval. Beginning six months after the effective date of this revision, interstate natural gas pipelines and public utilities proposing to use price indices in jurisdictional tariffs will no longer be entitled to the rebuttable presumption that a price index developer’s price indices produce just and reasonable rates unless the price index developer has obtained approval or re-approval from the Commission within the last seven years.

FERC Form No. 552, Annual Report of Natural Gas Transactions

Key Information

Abstract

The FERC Form 552 provides greater transparency concerning the use of indices to price natural gas and how well index prices reflect market forces. Many market participants rely on indices to reference market prices without acquiring the risks of active trading. However, the Commission discovered that there was insufficient information available to the Commission and market participants in order to assess whether the gas indices are derived from a robust market of fixed-price transactions and thus, accurately reflect market forces. For example, there was no way to determine the volumetric relationships between (a) the fixed-price, next day and next month delivery transactions that form gas price indices; and (b) transactions that use indices. The annual filing of transaction information by market participants is necessary to provide information regarding the size of the physical natural gas market, the use of the natural gas spot markets and the use of fixed- and indexed- price transactions. Without the most basic information about these volumetric relationships, the Commission has been hampered in its oversight and its ability to assess the adequacy of price-forming transactions. Market participants are likewise unable to evaluate their use of indexed transactions. Typically, market participants rely on index-priced transactions as a way to reference market prices without taking on the risks of active trading. These market participants rely on index prices, often whether or not those prices are derived from a robust market of fixed-price transactions.

Employee Benefit Plan Claims Procedure Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act

Key Information

Abstract

In November 2000, the Department issued a final regulation establishing minimum claims procedure requirements that all employee benefit plans under ERISA must meet in order to satisfy the requirements of section 503 of ERISA. Section 505 of ERISA authorizes the Secretary to prescribe regulations as appropriate or necessary to carry out the provisions of Title I of ERISA. The regulation requires plans to provide every claimant who is denied a claim with a written or electronic notice that contains the specific reasons for denial, a reference to the relevant plan provisions on which the denial is based, a description of any additional information necessary to perfect the claim, and a description of steps to be taken if the participant or beneficiary wishes to appeal the denial. The regulation also requires that any adverse decision upon review be in writing (including electronic means) and include specific reasons for the decision, as well as references to relevant plan provisions.

FAST-41 Initiation Notice (FIN)

Key Information

Abstract

Established in 2015 by Title 41 of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST-41), 42 U.S.C. 4370m et seq., the Permitting Council is a unique Federal agency charged with improving the transparency and predictability of the Federal environmental review and authorization process for certain infrastructure projects. The Permitting Council is comprised of the Permitting Council Executive Director, who serves as the Council Chair; 13 Federal agency Council members (including deputy secretary-level designees of the Secretaries of Agriculture, Army, Commerce, Interior, Energy, Transportation, Defense, Homeland Security, and Housing and Urban Development, the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Chairs of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation); and the Chair of the Council on Environmental Quality and the Director of the OMB. 42 U.S.C. 4370m-1(a) & (b). The Permitting Council coordinates Federal environmental reviews and authorizations for projects that seek and qualify for FAST-41 coverage. Those projects are entitled to comprehensive permitting timetables and transparent, collaborative management of those timetables on the Federal Permitting Dashboard in compliance with FAST-41 procedural requirements. 42 U.S.C. 4370m-2(c) & (d). Sponsors of FAST-41 covered projects also benefit from the direct engagement of the Permitting Council Executive Director and the Permitting Council members in timely identification and resolution of permitting issues that affect covered projects’ permitting timetables. FAST-41 is a voluntary program for project sponsors to have additional support through the environmental review and permitting process. The first step to becoming a covered project under FAST-41 is to submit a FAST-41 Initiation Notice (FIN), required by 42 U.S.C. 4370m-2(a)(1). The FIN is required to include the purpose of the project, a brief description, statements of technical and financial feasibility, a statement of anticipated federal financing, reviews, and authorizations, and an assessment of whether the project meets the statutory definition of a “covered project” under FAST-41. 42 U.S.C. 4370m-2(a)(1)(C).

NRC Forms 542 and 542A, Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest Index and Regional Compact Tabulation

Key Information

Abstract

The NRC Form 542, completed by LLW collectors and processors, contains information needed to satisfy the waste manifesting requirements of the NRC’s 10 CFR part 20 and information on the attribution of the waste. Each waste container shipped from a waste collector or processor may contain waste from several different generators. Tracking the identity of the original waste generator becomes more complicated when the waste forms, dimensions, or packaging are changed by the waste processor. These forms are used to attribute the waste to the original generator for regional waste compact tabulation. The information provided on the NRC Form 542 permits the States and Compacts to know the original generators of LLW, as authorized by the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985, so they can ensure that waste is disposed of in the appropriate Compact. NUREG/BR–0204, Rev. 3, contains instructions for completing NRC Forms 540, 540A, 541, 541A, 542, and 542A. The forms were originally developed by the NRC at the request of low-level waste industry groups. The forms are intended to provide uniformity and efficiency in the collection of information contained in manifests which are required to control transfers of LLW intended for disposal at a land disposal facility. However, as stated in 10 CFR part 20, Appendix G, ‘‘Licensees need not use originals of these NRC Forms as long as any substitute forms are equivalent to the original documentation in respect to content, clarity, size, and location of information . . .’’ The NRC previously noticed the availability of revisions to the Uniform Low-Level Radioactive Waste Manifest Forms in the Federal Register on June 25, 2021 (86 FR 33783). The information collection contained in the current extension request does not include any material changes to the forms, except for: (1) changes to the Paperwork Reduction Act statement to indicate that licensees may use equivalent forms, and (2) the deletion of the expiration date.

Authorization for SSA to Obtain Account Records From A Financial Institution And Request For Records

Key Information

Abstract

SSA collects and verifies financial account information from individuals requesting a waiver of their Title II and Title XVI overpayments, as well as those who apply for, or currently receive (in the case of redetermination) Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments. We require financial information from these individual’s to: (1) determine the eligibility of the applicant or recipient for SSI benefits; or (2) determine if a request to waive a Social Security overpayment defeats the purpose of the Act. If an individual provides incomplete or seemingly altered records, or if records are unavailable, SSA contacts his or her financial institutions to verify the existence; ownership; and value of accounts owned. Financial institutions need individuals to sign Form SSA-4641-F4, or contact SSA and use the Internet version, e4641, to authorize them to disclose the individual’s records to SSA. The respondents are Title II and Title XVI recipients applying for waivers, or SSI applicants, recipients, and their deemors to determine SSI eligibility. We are submitting a non-substantive Change Request to request to add a new modality of completion for the SSA-4641. The new version will be published as an overprint (SSA-4641 OP1) and will not replace any existing modalities, we are updating disclosures and the Privacy Act Statement and we are moving the financial account identification from the authorization portion of the form to a new Part Two of the form and broken up the various parts of this multipurpose form into four sections.

Designation of Agents, Motor Carriers, Brokers and Freight Forwarders

Key Information

Abstract

Motor carriers of property and passengers, property brokers, surface freight forwarders, including exempt for hire and private motor carriers, operating in interstate or foreign commerce must register with the FMCSA. The collection is mandatory reporting. As a condition of registration, these entities must designate process agents for each State in which they operate on the “Designation of Agents for Service of Process” form, Form BOC-3. The form is submitted by registration applicants to FMCSA to meet a statutory requirement and is filed on an “as-needed” basis and cannot be done less frequently. Most forms are filed by blanket companies on behalf of carriers. Currently, information contained on the completed Form BOC-3 identifies a process agent for each State in which the motor carrier, freight forwarder, or broker will operate. These process agents are authorized by the transportation entity to accept, on its behalf, legal process or notice in Agency and court proceedings. Persons considering bringing legal actions against a carrier, broker, or freight forwarder may obtain the name of its process agent in a particular State by contacting FMCSA.

FY2023 Teen Pregnancy Prevention Performance Measures

Key Information

Abstract

The Office of Population Affairs (OPA), in the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), requests renewal of clearance with change (revision) for the collection of performance measures from Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) Program grantees, specifically those awarded between FY2023 and FY2028 across three Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs). Collection of performance measures is a requirement of all TPP awards and is included as an expectation within the TPP NOFOs. The data collection will allow OPA to comply with federal accountability and performance requirements, inform stakeholders of grantee progress in meeting TPP program goals, provide OPA with metrics for monitoring current TPP grantees, and facilitate individual grantees’ continuous quality improvement efforts within their projects. The primary change OPA requests is to update the total number of respondents, which reduced the total burden estimate. OPA revised the original clearance to update the estimated number of respondents provided in the original clearance to reflect the number of actual grantees awarded: Tier 1 respondents decreased by 12 (from 70 to 58), Tier 2 Hubs respondents decreased by 4 (from 10 to 6) and Tier 2 Rigorous Impact respondents decreased by 1 (from 16 to 15). The decrease in respondents reduced total burden by 222 hours (from 1431 hours to 1209 hours). OPA added one new item to the Tier 2 Hubs form (prototypes developed per reporting period) which is not expected to change the burden estimated for the form. OPA requests clearance for three years to allow for continuous data collection throughout the 5-year grants.
