13136 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 43 / Monday, March 5, 2012 / Notices 

is a revision of a previously approved 

collection. The PREDICT program 

facilitates the accessibility of computer 

and network operational data for use in 

cyber security research and 

development through the establishment 

of distributed repositories of securityrelevant network operations data, and 

the application procedures, protection 

policies, and review processes necessary 

to make this data available to the cyber 

defense research community. The forms 

allow the PREDICT initiative to provide 

a central repository, accessible through 

a web-based portal (https:// 

www.predict.org/) that catalogs current 

computer network operational data, 

provide secure access to multiple 

sources of data collected as a result of 

use and traffic on the Internet, and 

facilitate data flow among PREDICT 

participants for the purpose of 

developing new models, technologies 

and products that support effective 

threat assessment and increase cyber 

security capabilities. The PREDICT 

Coordinating Center (PCC) has 

established application procedures, 

protection policies, and review 

processes necessary to make this data 

available to the cyber defense research 

community and PREDICT has been 

operational since Fall 2008. In order for 

a user to access PREDICT data, s/he 

must complete a registration form to 

establish a user account. The 

information collected is used by the 

DHS S&T PREDICT program to 

determine the authenticity and validate 

the requestor’s stated research against 

the data requested. 

The DHS invites interested persons to 

comment on the following form and 

instructions (hereinafter ‘‘Forms 

Package’’) for the S&T PREDICT 

program. Interested persons may receive 

a copy of the Forms Package by

Coordinator. This notice and request for 

comments is required by the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 

44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Executive 

Order 13175 directs all Federal agencies 

to ensure consultation and coordination 

with Indian tribal governments on 

Federal actions that will affect tribal 

governments. Under Public Law 108– 

199, this consultation policy also 

applies to corporations established 

under the Alaska Native Claims 

Settlement Act (ANCSA). Federal 

agencies are therefore required to 

consult and coordinate with ANCSA 

corporations on the same basis as Indian 

tribes in developing policies that would 

affect these corporations and their tribal 

shareholders. To implement these 

requirements, the Department is 

proposing and seeking comments on a 

draft consultation policy to govern all 

activities that will affect ANCSA 

corporations. Copies of the draft policy 

are available at the address given in the 

ADDRESSES section of this notice. 

Before including your address, phone 

number, email address, or other 

personal identifying information in your 

comment, you should be aware that 

your entire comment—including your 

personal identifying information—may 

be made publicly available at any time. 

While you can ask us in your comment 

to withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so. 

The Department of the Interior 

proposed policy on consultation with 

Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act 

Corporations is set forth below. 

Department of the Interior Policy on 

Consultation With Alaska Native 

Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) 

Corporations 

I. Preamble 

In compliance with Congressional 

direction, this Policy creates a 

framework for consulting with Alaska 

Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) 

Corporations. Pursuant to the Alaska 

Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) 

of 1971, ANCSA Corporations were 

established to provide for the economic 

and social needs, including the health, 

education and welfare of their Native 

shareholders. Congress also required 

that ‘‘[t]he Director of the Office of 

Management and Budget [and all 

Federal agencies] shall hereafter consult 

with Alaska Native corporations on the 

same basis as Indian tribes under 

Executive Order No. 13175.’’ 1
