Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 27 / Thursday, February 8, 2024 / Notices 8703 

maintained by HHS’ Office of Child 

Support Enforcement (OCSE) in its 

system of records ‘‘OCSE National 

Directory of New Hires,’’ No. 09–80– 

0381, published in the Federal Register 

at 80 FR 17894 (specifically pages 

17906–17909) on April 2, 2015. The 

published system of records notice 

authorizes disclosure of NDNH 

information to HUD pursuant to Routine 

Use (12) ‘‘for the purpose of verifying 

the employment and income of the 

individuals and, after removal of 

personal identifiers, for the purpose of 

conducting analyses of the employment 

and income reporting of such 

individuals.’’ 

The HUD records used in the 

information comparison are retrieved 

from HUD’s Enterprise Income 

Verification (EIV) System, and the 

results of the information comparison 

are maintained within HUD’s EIV 

System No. HUD/PIH–5, last published 

in the Federal Register at 87 FR 

50635(August 17, 2022). Routine use (D) 

of the system of records authorizes 

disclosure of HUD records to HHS. 

Purpose(s): HUD’s primary objective 

of the computer matching program is to 

verify the employment and income of 

participants in certain rental assistance 

programs to determine the appropriate 

level of rental assistance, and to detect, 

deter and correct fraud, waste, and 

abuse in rental housing assistance 

programs. In meeting these objectives, 

HUD also is carrying out a responsibility 

under 42 U.S.C. 1437f(K) to ensure that 

income data provided to PHAs, and O/ 

As, by household members is complete 

and accurate. HUD’s various rental 

housing assistance programs require 

that participants meet certain income 

and other criteria to be eligible for rental 

assistance. In addition, tenants generally 

are required to report and recertify the 

amounts and sources of their income at 

least annually. However, under the 

Quality Housing and Work 

Responsibility Act (QHWRA) of 1998, 

PHAs operating Public Housing 

programs may offer tenants the option to 

pay a flat rent, or an income-based rent. 

Those tenants who select a flat rent will 

be required to recertify income at least 

every three years. In addition, the 

changes to the Admissions and 

Occupancy final rule (March 29, 2000 

(65 FR 16692)) specified that household 

composition must be recertified 

annually for tenants who select a flat 

rent or income-based rent.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et 

seq.) and its implementing regulations 

at 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), all information 

collections require approval under the 

PRA. We may not conduct or sponsor 

and you are not required to respond to 

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

As part of our continuing effort to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burdens, we invite the public and other 

Federal agencies to comment on new, 

proposed, revised, and continuing 

collections of information. This helps us 

assess the impact of our information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. It also 

helps the public understand our 

information collection requirements and 

provide the requested data in the 

desired format. 

We are especially interested in public 

comment addressing the following: 

(1) Whether or not the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the 

burden for this collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(4) How might the agency 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 submission of response. 

Comments that you submit in 

response to this notice are a matter of 

public record. We will include or 

summarize each comment in our request 

to OMB to approve this ICR. 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. 

Abstract: The Endangered Species Act 

of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 

1531 et seq.), was established to provide 

a means to conserve the ecosystems 

upon which endangered and threatened 

species depend, to provide a program 

for the conservation of these endangered 

and threatened species, and to take the 

appropriate steps that are necessary to 

bring any endangered or threatened 

species to the point where measures 

provided for under the ESA are no 

longer necessary. 

The western snowy plover 

(Charadrius nivosus nivosus; hereafter 

referred to as plover) is a federally 

threatened species protected under the 

ESA. Corvid-caused predation is 

detrimental to plover survival and 

changes by site and by year. A corvid is 

any member of the Corvidae family of 

stout-billed passerine birds, such as 

crows, jays, magpies, and raven. 

The Western Snowy Plover Recovery 

Unit 2 Outreach Subcommittee is 

committed to plover outreach and 

education. The subcommittee is 

comprised of partners including the 

Arcata Fish and Wildlife Office, 

Humboldt Bay National Wildlife Refuge, 

California State Parks, National Park 

Service, Bureau of Land Management, 

Friends of the Dunes, Tolowa Dunes 

Stewards, Humboldt County Parks, and 

California State Polytechnic UniversityHumboldt. The Kure/Stuyvesant Trustee 

Council (KSTC) is composed of 

representatives from the Service, the 

California Department of Fish and 

Wildlife, and the California State Lands 

Commission and is the entity providing 

funding through the Kure/Stuyvesant 

Restoration Fund for Friends of the 

Dunes to complete the action described 

below. 

Crumb Clean Message Effectiveness 

Social Survey—The social survey for the 

redesigned Crumb Clean Campaign will 

be used to assess the effectiveness of the 

campaign’s message (the campaign’s 

goal is education on keeping wild 

animals from getting access to human 

food in California State Parks). 

Information collected will strictly be 

regarding the messaging of the Crumb 

Clean Campaign, and what can be done 

to improve the overall message quality 

and effectiveness. The survey will be 

administered three times during 

summer. Data collected will be used to 

inform any necessary adjustment to a 

required presentation on the Crumb 

Clean Campaign. 

Crumb Clean Report—A report on the 

results of the survey must be submitted 

to the Service. This report must be 

compliant with section 508 of the 

Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended 

(29 U.S.C. 794d). 

These reports will include Crumb 

Clean Questionnaire results, locations of 

distribution, and hours spent.
