SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Critical Infrastructure Protection Act of 

2001, 42 U.S.C. 5195c, states that any 

physical or virtual disruption of the 

operation of the critical infrastructures 

of the United States be rare, brief, 

geographically limited in effect, 

manageable, and minimally detrimental 

to the economy, human and government 

services, and national security of the 

United States; and that actions 

necessary to achieve the policy stated be 

carried out in a public-private 

partnership involving corporate and 

non-governmental organizations. On 

behalf of the DHS, the Cybersecurity 

and Infrastructure Security Agency’s 

Infrastructure Security Division (CISA 

ISD) manages the Department’s program 

to protect the Nation’s 16 critical 

infrastructure sectors by implementing 

the National Infrastructure Protection 

Plan (NIPP) 2013, Partnering for Critical 

Infrastructure Security and Resilience. 

Pursuant to Presidential Policy Directive 

21 on Critical Infrastructure Security 

and Resilience (February 2013), each 

sector is assigned a Sector-Specific 

Agency (SSA) to oversee Federal 

interaction with the array of sector 

security partners, both public and 

private. An SSA is responsible for 

leading a unified public-private sector 

effort to develop, coordinate, and 

implement a comprehensive physical, 

human, and cyber security strategy for 

its assigned sector. There are six critical 

infrastructure sectors assigned to CISA 

ISD, including the Chemical sector. In 

addition to fulfilling the regulatory 

obligations set forth by Congress, the 

CISA Office of Chemical Security 

coordinates with the builds sustainable 

partnerships with its public and private 

sector stakeholders to enable more 

effective coordination, information 

sharing, and program development and 

implementation. These partnerships are 

sustained through the NIPP Sector 

Partnership Model.1

Information sharing is a key 

component of the NIPP Partnership 

Model, and DHS sponsored conferences 

are one mechanism for information 

sharing. To facilitate conference 

planning and organization. This 

voluntary information collection tool for 

online event registration is maintained 

and leveraged by the Office of Chemical 

Security within CISA ISD. The 

information collected with this tool is 

used to register public and private 

sector stakeholders for meetings hosted 

by the Office of Chemical Security, 

principally the annual Chemical 

Security Summit. This tool is also used 

for private sector stakeholders to register 

their interest in being contacted by

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 166 / Tuesday, August 29, 2023 / Notices 59533 

chemical security personnel regarding 

services provided under the voluntary 

ChemLock security program. The Office 

of Chemical Security uses the 

information collected to ensure that 

sufficient space and resources are 

available at meetings; to follow up with 

registrants when required; to develop 

meeting materials for attendees; and 

efficiently generate attendee and 

speaker nametags. Additionally, it 

enables the Office of Chemical Security 

to gain a better understanding of the 

organizations participating in chemical 

security events, and subsequently also 

identify which segments of the sector 

are underrepresented. This then allows 

for the Office to target these 

underrepresented sector elements 

through outreach and awareness 

initiatives. 

The changes to the collection include: 

changes to the burden costs, annual 

government costs, and revised and 

added data fields. In addition to the 

removal of historically retained fields 

that collect redundant or unnecessary 

information, and updating existing 

fields for accuracy and ease of use, two 

additional fields has been added: 

• ‘How did you hear of this event,’ a 

field which was included in the original 

instrument for this collection, and 

removed in a previous revision, has now 

been re-added to the instrument. 

• A field for the registrant’s company 

website has been added. 

The annual burden cost for the 

collection has increased by $5,751, from 

$1,802 to $7,553, largely due to an 

increase in the number of respondents 

associated with the shift to a hybrid 

event and updated compensation rates. 

Additionally, the scope of the collection 

has increased twofold: (1) the annual 

Chemical Security Summit, the event 

with which the calculations for this 

collection have been historically based, 

has moved to a hybrid format that 

allows for a dramatic increase in 

estimated registration numbers (from 

400 previously to 1400), and (2) the 

utilization of this collection for the 

voluntary ChemLock program which 

adds an estimated 200 users per year. 

The annual government cost for the 

collection has increased by $53,757, 

from $8,347 to $62,104, due to the shift 

to a hybrid event format and the 

associated increase in the number of 

registrations, which increased from 

1,000 to 7,106. 

This is a revision and renewal of an 

information collection. 

OMB is particularly interested in 

comments that: 

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, 

3. including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

4. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

5. 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 

6. other forms of information 

technology, e.g., permitting electronic 

submissions of responses.
