1The current inventory exhibits a total burden of 

28,311 hours while the total burden of this notice 

is 3,980 hours. FRA determined some of the 

estimates were not derived from PRA requirements, 

thus leading to the increased figures in the current 

inventory, which were decreased accordingly in 

this notice. Also, totals may not add due to 

rounding. 

2The dollar equivalent cost is derived from the 

Surface Transportation Board’s Full Year Wage A&B 

data series using the appropriate employee group 

hourly wage rate that includes a 75-percent 

overhead charge.

information, advice, and 

recommendations to the Secretary via 

the Administrator of NHTSA, and 

through NHTSA to FICEMS on matters 

relating to all aspects of development 

and implementation of EMS. 

Description of Duties: 

Consistent with Sections 3 and 5, 

NEMSAC is authorized to: 

a. Consider information on EMS 

issues to define, develop positions, and 

make recommendations on such issues 

for the Secretary of Transportation and/ 

or FICEMS. 

b. Provide recommendations or advice 

relating to EMS on such topics as: 

• Improved coordination and support 

of EMS systems among Federal 

programs; 

• Strategic planning; 

• EMS standards, guidelines, 

performance benchmarks, and other 

guidelines; 

• Guidelines for conducting needs 

assessments for improving communitybased EMS systems at State and local 

levels; 

• Enhancing the National EMS 

Information System (NEMSIS) through 

adoption, utilization and revision of the 

NEMSIS standard and supporting EMS 

systems with new uses of EMS data and 

information; and 

• Strengthening EMS systems through 

enhanced workforce development, 

education, training, exercises, 

sustainability, equipment, medical 

oversight, and other areas. 

c. Respond to requests for 

consultation and advice on EMS issues 

from the Secretary of Transportation 

(via the National Highway Traffic Safety

Federal Officer (DFO)) and/or from 

FICEMS. 

d. NEMSAC shall prepare an annual 

report to the Secretary of 

Transportation, with copies sent to the 

Secretary of Health and Human Services 

and Secretary of Homeland Security, 

and to FICEMS, regarding NEMSAC’s

Membership 

In accordance with the NEMSAC 

charter, members should represent a 

cross-section of the diverse agencies, 

organizations, and individuals involved 

in EMS activities and programs in the 

United States. NEMSAC consists of 25 

members, each of whom shall be 

appointed by the Secretary of 

Transportation, in coordination with the 

U.S. Departments of Homeland Security 

and Health and Human Services 

through their respective representatives 

on FICEMS. The NEMSAC members 

shall collectively be representative of all 

sectors of the EMS community. 

The NEMSAC’s broad-based 

membership will ensure that it has 

sufficient EMS system expertise and 

geographic and demographic diversity 

to accurately reflect the whole EMS 

community. 

To the extent practical, the final 

NEMSAC membership shall ensure 

representation from the following 

sectors of the EMS community: 

• Volunteer EMS 

• Fire-based (career) EMS 

• Private (career non-fire) EMS 

• Hospital-based EMS 

• Tribal EMS 

• Air Medical EMS 

• Local EMS service directors/ 

administrators 

• EMS Medical Directors

capacity on NEMSAC and not as Special 

Government Employees. The Secretary 

of Transportation shall appoint each 

member for up to a 2-year term and 

members may be reappointed but may 

not serve more than two consecutive 

terms unless the Secretary determines 

that additional terms are permitted to 

ensure representation of all sectors of 

EMS. NEMSAC members will not 

receive pay or other compensation from 

NHTSA for their NEMSAC service, but 

are entitled to reimbursement of their 

travel expenses, including per diem. 

The NEMSAC meets in plenary session 

approximately three to four times per 

year.

Members will be selected for their 

ability to reflect a balanced 

representation of interests from across 

the EMS community, but no member 

will represent a specific organization. 

Materials To Submit

serving on the NEMSAC are invited to 

apply for appointment by submitting a 

resume or CV along with letters of 

recommendation to one of the locations

Proposed Agency Information 

Collection Activities; Comment 

Request 

AGENCY: Office of the Comptroller of the 

Currency (OCC), Treasury; Board of 

Governors of the Federal Reserve 

System (Board); and Federal Deposit 

Insurance Corporation (FDIC). 

ACTION: Joint notice and request for 

comment. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the OCC, 

the Board, and the FDIC (the agencies) 

may not conduct or sponsor, and the 

respondent is not required to respond 

to, an information collection unless it 

displays a currently valid Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) control 

number. The Federal Financial 

Institutions Examination Council 

(FFIEC), of which the agencies are 

members, has approved the agencies’ 

publication for public comment of a 

proposal to revise and extend the 

Consolidated Reports of Condition and 

Income (Call Reports) (FFIEC 031, 

FFIEC 041, and FFIEC 051), which are 

currently approved collections of 

information. The agencies are requesting 

comment on a change to the Call Report 

forms and instructions (FFIEC 031 and 

FFIEC 041 only) to implement the 

FDIC’s proposed amendments to the 

deposit insurance assessment system 

applicable to all large insured 

depository institutions (IDIs), including 

highly complex IDIs, to address the 

temporary deposit insurance assessment 

effects resulting from certain optional 

regulatory capital transition provisions 

relating to the implementation of the 

current expected credit losses (CECL) 

methodology. The change to the Call 

Reports would enable the FDIC to 

remove the double counting of a 

specified portion of the CECL 

transitional amount or the modified 

CECL transitional amount, as applicable 

(collectively, the CECL transitional 

amounts), in certain financial measures 

that are calculated using the sum of Tier 

1 capital and reserves and that are used 

to determine assessment rates for large 

and highly complex IDIs. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before February 16, 2021.
