I&A Request Customer Survey 

AGENCY: Department of Homeland 

Security, Office of Intelligence and 

Analysis. 

ACTION: 60-Day Notice and request for 

comments; New Information Collection 

Request. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Homeland 

Security, Office of Intelligence and 

Analysis, 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 24, 

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 Office of Intelligence and Analysis, 

Attn.: Jason Clark, 202–447–3140. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Implementing Recommendations of the 

9/11 Commission act of 2007 (Pub. L. 

110–53) identifies the U/SIA as having 

the primary Federal responsibility for 

outreach and sharing threat related 

information and intelligence with State, 

local and tribal officials (S&L). Section 

511 of the 9/11 Act with regards to 

consumer feedback requires I&A to 

create a voluntary mechanism for any 

State, local, tribal law enforcement 

officer or other emergency response 

provider who is a consumer of the 

intelligence or other information 

products of I&A to provide feedback to 

the Department on quality and utility of 

such intelligence products. This is new 

collection for a pilot program. I&A 

Managers will use the survey results to 

establish exactly who within our S&L 

target audience our products are 

reaching and to generally gauge and 

make improvements to intelligence 

products that increase customer 

satisfaction and program effectiveness. 

The results of the customer satisfaction 

surveys will be shared with DHS HQ, 

I&A, and as mandated by section 511 of 

the 9/11 act presented to the Committee 

on Homeland Security and 

Governmental Affairs of the Senate and 

the Committee on Homeland Security of 

the House of Representatives. 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

550 of Public Law 109–295 provides the 

Department of Homeland Security with 

the authority to regulate the security of 

high-risk chemical facilities. Before the 

enactment of section 550, the Federal 

government did not have the authority 

to regulate the security of most of our 

nation’s chemical facilities. On April 9, 

2007, the Department issued an Interim 

Final Rule (IFR), implementing this 

statutory mandate at 72 FR 17688. 

Section 550 requires a risk-based 

approach to security. 

The Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism 

Standards (CFATS), 6 CFR part 27, are 

the Department’s regulations under 

section 550 governing security at highrisk chemical facilities. CFATS 

represents a national-level effort to 

minimize terrorism risk to such 

facilities. Its design and implementation 

balance maintaining economic vitality 

with securing facilities and their 

surrounding communities. The 

regulations were designed, in 

collaboration with the private sector and 

other stakeholders, to take advantage of 

protective measures already in place 

and to allow facilities to employ a wide 

range of tailored measures to satisfy the 

regulations’ Risk-Based Performance 

Standards (RBPS). 

CFATS also establishes, in 6 CFR 

27.400, the requirements that covered 

persons must follow to safeguard certain

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 185 / Friday, September 25, 2009 / Notices 48995 

documents and other information 

developed under the regulations. This 

information is identified as ‘‘Chemicalterrorism Vulnerability Information’’ 

(CVI) and by law receives protection 

from public disclosure and misuse. 

The Department collects the primary 

core regulatory data electronically 

through the Chemical Security 

Assessment Tool (CSAT). 

Solicitation of Comments 

No comments were received in 

response to the 60-day public comment 

period. However, the department has 

adjusted the cost estimates based on 

improved cost information. 

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.
