information, indicates or is relevant to 

a violation or potential violation of civil 

or criminal law or regulation. 

c. To a member of Congress from the 

record of an individual in response to 

an inquiry made at the request of the 

individual to whom the record pertains. 

d. To the National Archives and 

Records Administration (NARA) in 

records management inspections 

conducted under the authority of 44 

U.S.C. 2904 and 2906. 

e. To appropriate agencies and 

persons when (1) MSPB suspects or has 

confirmed that there has been a breach 

of the system of records; (2) MSPB has 

determined that as a result of the 

suspected or confirmed breach there is 

a risk of harm to individuals, MSPB 

(including its information systems, 

programs, and operations), the Federal 

Government, or national security; and 

(3) the disclosure made to such

remedying the risk of harm to 

individuals, the recipient agency or

confirmed breach. 

g. To contractors, grantees, experts, 

consultants, or volunteers performing or 

working on a contract, service, grant,

provided information under this routine 

use are subject to the same Privacy Act 

requirements and limitations on 

disclosure as are applicable to MSPB 

employees. 

h. To Federal agencies whose 

employees participate in MSPB special 

studies surveys, and their 

subcomponents, where MSPB 

determines that assistance may be

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF

RECORDS: 

The records in this system of records 

are stored electronically on (1) MSPB 

system(s) and/or (2) temporarily on an 

MSPB vendor’s system(s) to facilitate 

the administration of the survey(s). 

Access in both locations is limited to a 

small number of authorized personnel at 

MSPB and at MSPB’s vendor. 

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVAL OF

RECORDS: 

Records may be retrieved by survey 

case identifier or other personal 

identifier but are generally only 

retrieved in this manner leading up to 

and during the administration of special 

studies surveys. After the survey is 

administered, personal identifiers are 

rarely used to retrieve records or for any 

other purpose. Instead, postadministration of the survey, records are 

typically retrieved by a respondent 

characteristic (such as agency or 

demographic group) or response pattern 

(such as response to a particular survey 

item or set of items) in a manner that is 

not intended to identify individual 

survey respondents. Additionally, postadministration of the survey, records 

may be retrieved by personal identifier 

for another research purpose as 

permitted by law, regulation, or 

agreement. 

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND

DISPOSAL OF RECORDS: 

MSPB is currently working to develop 

a records schedule for the survey 

responses to submit to NARA for 

approval. Until a records schedule is in 

place, the records will be retained as 

permanent records. 

Data provided to MSPB from OPM’s 

EHRI data warehouse under an OPM– 

MSPB Memorandum of Understanding 

is retained until no longer needed or 

when OPM instructs MSPB to destroy 

data. 

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL

SAFEGUARDS: 

Records in the system are protected 

from unauthorized access and misuse 

through various administrative, 

technical, and physical security 

measures, such as access controls, 

mandatory security and privacy 

training, encryption, multi-factor 

authentication, security guards, and 

locked offices. 

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES: 

Individuals seeking notification of 

and access to their records in this 

system of records may submit a request 

in writing to the Office of the Clerk of 

the Board, Merit Systems Protection 

Board, 1615 M Street NW, Washington, 

DC 20419. Individuals requesting access 

must comply with MSPB’s Privacy Act 

regulations regarding verification of 

identity and access to records (5 CFR 

part 1205). 

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES: 

Individuals may request that records 

about them be amended by writing to 

the Office of the Clerk of the Board, 

Merit Systems Protection Board, 1615 M 

Street, NW, Washington, DC 20419. 

Individuals requesting amendment must 

follow MSPB’s Privacy Act regulations 

regarding verification of identity and 

amendment to records (5 CFR part 

1205).

solicit grant applications, recruit peer 

reviewers, and monitor the performance 

of recipients. 

DATES: Please submit comments by 

March 29, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: Submit comments to Mr. 

Timothy Carrigan, Chief Funding

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Overview of This Information 

Collection 

Type of Review: Revision of an 

existing information collection. 

Title of Information Collection: 

Generic Clearance Authority for the 

National Endowment for the 

Humanities. 

Abstract: The National Endowment 

for the Humanities is seeking to renew 

its generic clearance authority. The 

generic clearance authority includes all 

NEH information collections, except 

one-time evaluations, questionnaires, 

and surveys. 

The proposed revision adjusts the 

overall burden estimate from 88,815 to 

296,433 hours. This estimate reflects the 

anticipated change in the number of 

respondents from 7,815 to 6,767 and the 

updated estimated time per response 

that more accurately reflects the hours 

required to complete a grant 

application. Previously, NEH estimated 

fifteen hours were needed to complete 

a grant application. Further study has 

increased the estimate to sixty hours per 

proposal. The burden estimate for 

associated forms and reporting 

requirements has not changed. 

OMB Number: 3136–0134. 

Affected Public: Applicants to NEH 

grant programs, reviewers of NEH grant 

applications, and NEH award recipients. 

Frequency of Collection: On occasion. 

Total Respondents: 6,767. 

Total Responses: 6,767. 

Estimated Time per Response: Varies 

according to type of information 

collection. 

Estimated Total Burden Hours: 

296,433. 

Request for Comments 

NEH will make comments submitted 

in response to this notice, including 

names and addresses where provided, a 

matter of public record. NEH will 

summarize the contents and include 

them in the request for OMB approval. 

We are requesting comments on all 

aspects of this clearance request, 

including (a) whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology.
