The Department of Labor invites 

public comment on whether these 

products (and/or other products, 

regardless of whether they are 

mentioned in this Notice) should be 

included on the updated List of 

products requiring Federal contractor 

certification as to the use of forced or 

indentured child labor. To the extent 

possible, comments provided should 

address the Procedural Guideline factors 

discussed above. The Department is also 

interested in public comments relating 

to whether products initially 

determined to be on the List are 

designated with appropriate specificity 

and what, if any, alternative 

designations would better serve the 

purposes of EO 13126. 

The bibliographies providing the 

preliminary basis for including each 

product on the list are available on the 

Internet at http://www.dol.gov/ILAB/ 

regs/eo13126/main.htm. 

As explained, following receipt and 

consideration of comments on the 

updated List set out above, the 

Department of Labor, in consultation 

and cooperation with the Departments 

of State Homeland Security, will issue 

a final determination in the Federal 

Register providing a final list of 

products. The Department of Labor 

intends to continue to revise the List 

periodically, to add and/or delete 

products, as justified by new 

information. 

Signed at Washington, DC, this 2nd day of 

September 2009.

OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND 

BUDGET 

Compliance Assistance Resources and 

Points of Contact Available to Small 

Businesses 

AGENCY: Office of Management and 

Budget, Executive Office of the 

President. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Small 

Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002 

(44 U.S.C. 3520), the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) is 

publishing a ‘‘list of the compliance 

assistance resources available to small 

businesses’’ and a list of the points of 

contacts in agencies ‘‘to act as a liaison 

between the agency and small business 

concerns’’ with respect to the collection 

of information and the control of 

paperwork. This information is posted 

on the following Web site: http:// 

www.business.gov/business-law/ 

contacts/federal/. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Wendy Liberante, Office of Information 

and Regulatory Affairs, Office of 

Management and Budget, E-mail: 

wliberante@omb.eop.gov, Telephone: 

(202) 395–3647. Inquiries may be 

submitted by facsimile to (202) 395– 

5167. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Small 

Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002 

(Pub. L. 107–198) requires OMB to 

‘‘publish in the Federal Register and 

make available on the Internet (in 

consultation with the Small Business 

Administration) on an annual basis a 

list of the compliance assistance 

resources available to small businesses’’ 

(44 U.S.C. 3504(c)(6)). OMB has, with 

the active assistance and support of the 

Small Business Administration (SBA) 

and the Business Gateway Program, 

assembled a list of the compliance 

assistance resources available to small 

businesses. This list is available today 

on the following Web site: http:// 

www.business.gov/business-law/ 

contacts/federal/. There is also a link to 

this information on the OMB Web site. 

In addition, under another provision of 

this Act, ‘‘each agency shall, with 

respect to the collection of information 

and the control of paperwork, establish 

1 point of contact in the agency to act 

as a liaison between the agency and 

small business concerns’’ (44 U.S.C. 

3506(i)(1)). These contacts are also 

available at http://www.business.gov/ 

business-law/contacts/federal/. OMB 

and SBA have chosen to discharge this 

statutory responsibility by publishing 

agency compliance contact information 

on the business.gov Web site. 

Business.gov delivers compliance 

information to the public more 

effectively than having businesses go to 

individual agency Web sites, thereby 

improving the probability of success for 

business owners and agency regulatory 

programs. The public is not only able to 

find agency points of contact for 

compliance under the ‘‘contacts and 

help’’ tab on Business.gov, but when 

users look for information in the ‘‘small 

business guides’’ on particular topics, 

the relevant agency points of contact 

automatically appear as part of the 

guide.

Acting Administrator, Office of Information 

and Regulatory Affairs.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NSF’s 

Antarctic Waste Regulation, 45 CFR Part

entities to obtain a permit for the use or 

release of a designated pollutant in 

Antarctica, and for the release of waste 

in Antarctica. NSF has received a permit 

application under this Regulation for 

the operation of up to nine expeditions 

per year to Antarctica. During each trip, 

passengers are taken ashore at selected 

sites by Zodiac (rubber raft) or 

helicopter for approximately two to four 

hours at a time. On each zodiac or 

helicopter’s landing, emergency gear 

would be taken ashore in case weather 

deteriorates and passengers are required 

to camp on shore. Anything taken 

ashore will be removed from Antarctica 

and disposed of in Ushuaia, Argentina, 

Port Stanley, Falkland Islands, or a 

substitute port of disembarkation. No 

hazardous domestic products or wastes 

(aerosol cans, paints, solvents, etc.) will 

be brought ashore. Cooking stoves/fuel 

will be used only in an emergency 

where passengers are forced to spend 

the night on shore. Conditions of the 

permit would include requirements to 

report on the removal of materials and 

any accidental releases, and 

management of all waste, including 

human waste, in accordance with 

Antarctic waste regulations. 

Application for the permit is made by:
