SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Docket: Supporting documents, 

including the ICR that explains in detail 

the information collection activities and 

the related burden and cost estimates 

that are summarized in this document, 

are available in the docket for this ICR. 

The docket can be viewed online at

at the EPA Docket Center, West William 

Jefferson Clinton Bldg., Rm. 3334, 1301

additional information about EPA’s 

public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/ 

dockets. 

ICR status: This ICR is for a new 

information collection activity. 

Under PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., an 

agency may not conduct or sponsor, and 

a person is not required to respond to, 

a collection of information, unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. The OMB control numbers are 

displayed either by publication in the 

Federal Register or by other appropriate 

means, such as on the related collection 

instrument or form, if applicable. The 

display of OMB control numbers for 

certain EPA regulations is consolidated 

in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: This ICR covers the 

information collection activities 

associated with Tier 2 data collection 

activities for certain chemicals under 

EPA’s EDSP. The EDSP is established 

under section 408(p) of the Federal 

Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) 

(21 U.S.C. 346a(p)), which requires EPA 

to develop a chemical screening 

program using appropriate validated test 

systems and other scientifically relevant 

information to determine whether 

certain substances may have hormonal 

effects. The EDSP consists of a twotiered approach to screen chemicals for 

potential endocrine disrupting effects. 

The purpose of Tier 1 screening is to 

identify substances that have potential 

bioactivity in the estrogen, androgen, or 

thyroid hormone systems using a battery 

of assays. Substances that have potential 

bioactivity with estrogen, androgen or 

thyroid hormone systems may proceed 

to Tier 2, which is designed to identify 

any adverse endocrine-related effects 

caused by the substance, and establish 

a quantitative relationship between the 

dose and that endocrine effect. 

Additional information about the EDSP 

is available through the Agency’s Web 

site at http://www.epa.gov/endo.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 148 / Monday, August 3, 2015 / Notices 45975 

This ICR addresses the information 

collection activities for those chemicals 

that were screened under Tier 1 of the 

EDSP and are now proceeding to testing 

under Tier 2 of the EDSP. The ICR 

covers the information collection 

activities associated with Tier 2 of the 

EDSP. As such, this ICR addresses the 

paperwork activities associated with 

generating the data requested, and 

submitting the data to EPA pursuant to 

the order. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: Those 

individuals and companies that receive 

an EDSP Tier 2 order issued by the 

Agency. Under FFDCA section 

408(p)(5)(A), EPA ‘‘shall issue’’ EDSP 

test orders ‘‘to a registrant of a substance 

for which testing is required . . . or to 

a person who manufactures or imports 

a substance for which testing is 

required.’’ 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

FFDCA section 408(p)(5) obligates test 

order recipients to respond. 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 100. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total burden: 83,116 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Estimated total costs: $5,861,023 (per 

year). This primarily represents 

estimated labor cost, with related 

administrative costs of $104. Given the 

nature of the activities, there are no 

costs estimated for capital investment or 

maintenance and operational costs. 

Changes in the estimates: This is a 

request for a new approval from OMB. 

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.

Submitted for Review and Approval to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort 

to reduce paperwork burdens, and as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501– 

3520), the Federal Communications 

Commission (FCC or Commission) 

invites the general public and other 

Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on the 

following information collections.

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

the accuracy of the Commission’s 

burden estimate; ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; ways to minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on the respondents, 

including the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and ways to 

further reduce the information 

collection burden on small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 employees. 

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a 

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

PRA that does not display a valid OMB 

control number. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

submitted on or before September 2, 

2015. If you anticipate that you will be 

submitting comments, but find it

Nicholas A. Fraser, OMB, via email 

Nicholas_A._Fraser@omb.eop.gov; and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control No: 3060–0233. 

Title: Part 54, High-Cost Loop Support 

Reporting to National Exchange Carrier 

Association (NECA). 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 1,095 

respondents; 1,515 responses. 

Estimated Time Per Response: 22 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement, annual reporting 

requirement and third party disclosure 

requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for information collection is 

contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), and 

(j), 221(c) and 410(c). 

Total Annual Burden: 33,330 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

No assurance of confidentiality has been 

given regarding the information. 

Need and Uses: In order to determine 

which carriers are entitled to high-cost 

loop support, rate-of-return incumbent 

local exchange carriers (LECs) must 

provide the National Exchange Carrier 

Association (NECA) with the loop cost 

and loop count data required by 47 CFR 

54.1305 of the Commission’s rules for 

each of its study areas and, if applicable, 

for each wire center (that term is 

defined in 47 CFR part 54). The loop 

cost and loop count information is to be 

filed annually with NECA by July 31st 

of each year, and may be updated 

occasionally pursuant to 47 CFR 

54.1306. Pursuant to section 54.1307, 

the information filed on July 31st of 

each year will be used to calculate 

universal service support for each study 

area and is filed by NECA with the 

Commission by October 1 of each year. 

An incumbent LEC is defined as a 

carrier that meets the definition of 

‘‘incumbent local exchange carrier’’ in 

47 CFR 51.5 of the Commission’s rules. 

The reporting requirements are 

necessary to implement the 

congressional mandate for universal 

service. The requirements are necessary 

to verify that rate-of-return LECs are 

eligible to receive universal service 

support. Information filed with NECA 

pursuant to section 54.1305 is used to 

calculate universal service support 

payments to eligible carriers. Without 

this information, NECA and USAC
