DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND 

SECURITY 

National Protection and Programs 

Directorate; Infrastructure Protection 

Data Call Survey 

AGENCY: National Protection and 

Programs Directorate, DHS. 

ACTION: 60-Day Notice and request for 

comments; New Information Collection 

Request: 1670—NEW. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Homeland 

Security, National Protection and 

Programs Directorate, has submitted the 

following Information Collection 

Request (ICR) to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

review and clearance in accordance 

with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 

35). 

DATES: Comments are encouraged and 

will be accepted until November 23, 

2009. This process is conducted in 

accordance with 5 CFR 1320.1. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

questions about this Information 

Collection Request should be forwarded 

to NPPD/IP/IICD, Attn.: Mary MathenyRushdan, mary.mathenyrushdan@dhs.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. 

Department of Homeland Security 

(DHS) is the lead coordinator in the 

national effort to identify and prioritize 

the country’s critical infrastructure and 

key resources (CIKR). At DHS, this 

responsibility is managed by the Office 

of Infrastructure Protection (IP) in the 

National Protection and Programs 

Directorate (NPPD). In FY2006, IP 

engaged in the annual development of a 

list of CIKR assets and systems to 

improve IP’s CIKR prioritization efforts; 

this list is called the Critical 

Infrastructure List. The Critical 

Infrastructure List includes assets and 

systems that, if destroyed, damaged or 

otherwise compromised, could result in 

significant consequences on a regional 

or national scale. 

The IP Data Call is administered out 

of the Infrastructure Information 

Collection Division (IICD) in the Office 

of Infrastructure Protection (IP). The IP 

Data Call provides opportunities for 

States and territories to collaborate with 

DHS and its Federal partners in CIKR 

protection. DHS, State and territorial 

Homeland Security Advisors (HSA), 

Sector Specific Agencies (SSA), and 

territories build their CIKR data using 

the IP Data Call application. To ensure 

that HSAs, SSAs and territories are able 

to achieve this mission, IP requests 

opinions and information in a survey 

from IP Data Call participants regarding 

the IP Data Call process and the Webbased application used to collect the 

CIKR data. The survey data collected is 

for internal IICD and IP use only. 

IICD and IP will use the results of the 

IP Data Call Survey to determine levels 

of customer satisfaction with the IP Data 

Call process and the IP Data Call 

application and prioritize future 

improvements. The results will also 

allow IP to appropriate funds costeffectively based on user need, and 

improve the process and application. 

The Office of Management and Budget 

is particularly interested in comments 

which: 

1. Evaluate 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; 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

4. Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submissions 

of responses.

BILLING CODE 9910–9P–P 

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND 

SECURITY 

Office of the Secretary 

[Docket No. DHS–2008–0088] 

Privacy Act of 1974; Federal 

Emergency Management Agency-008 

Disaster Recovery Assistance Files 

System of Records 

AGENCY: Privacy Office; DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of Privacy Act system of 

records. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of 

Homeland Security proposes to update 

and reissue a system of records titled, 

Department of Homeland Security 

Federal Emergency Management 

Agency-REG 2 Disaster Recovery 

Assistance Files [July 6, 2006], into a 

Department of Homeland Security 

system of records notice titled, DHS/ 

Federal Emergency Management 

Agency-008 Disaster Recovery 

Assistance Files. This system enables 

the Department of Homeland Security to 

administer the DHS/Federal Emergency 

Management Agency Disaster Recovery 

Assistance system of records. To assist 

in improving disaster recovery 

assistance, the Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, in partnership 

with other Federal agencies, hosts a 

single application and resource center 

(http://www.disasterassistance.gov) that 

allows the public to apply for disaster 

assistance, benefits, and other services 

within the Federal Emergency 

Management Agency and other Federal 

agencies. 

Updated information contained in the 

Disaster Recovery Assistance Files, 

includes, but is not limited to, the 

disaster applicant’s change of address 

associated with the applicant’s social 

security number that will be submitted 

to the Social Security Administration. 

Sharing the date of a disaster 

applicant’s change of address along with 

the social security number will allow 

applicants to update the Social Security 

Administration with information to help 

prevent delay in receiving benefits and 

correspondence from the Social Security 

Administration. 

Categories of individuals, categories 

of records, and the routine uses of this 

system of records notice have been 

updated to better reflect the Department 

of Homeland Security Federal 

Emergency Management Agency’s 

Disaster Recovery Assistance record 

systems. This system will be included 

in the Department’s inventory of record 

systems. The changes include renumbering the routine uses to comport 

with all of DHS system of record 

notices. 

We have expanded the preamble 

language in section (h), which was 

previously numbered section (a), to 

include sharing for the purposes of 

addressing unmet needs as well as 

preventing a duplication of benefits. We 

expanded the language in (h)(1) 

(previously (a)(1)) to include all types of 

disaster related assistance that a Federal 

or State agency may provide. There was 

some ambiguity as to whether some 

services that states provided met the 

standard set out in the previous system 

of records notice. We have added an 

additional routine use in section (h) to 

address immediate health needs of 

applicants. 

We have added routine use section (q) 

to better assist applicants by updating 

all of their information that is filed with 

government agencies. FEMA learned 

that in the aftermath of a disaster, 

applicants who were housed in FEMAprovided dwellings had trouble 

receiving other services and benefits 

from other government agencies due to 

the fact that those other agencies did not 

have updated contact information 

regarding the applicants. This routine 

use will address that problem. 

In response to Executive Order 13411 

we have added routine use (r) to allow 

for computer matching agreements with 

other agencies in order to better deal 

with eligibility concerns. Often 

eligibility for other Federal agency 

programs is contingent upon whether 

the applicant received assistance from 

DHS/FEMA and vice versa. The sharing 

via computer matching agreements will 

expedite and improve upon this 

process. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

submitted on or before October 26, 

2009. This new system will be effective 

October 26, 2009.
