SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Generic Clearance for 

Meaningful Access Information 

Collections. 

OMB Control Number: 1520–0009. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Description: A court order was issued 

in American Council of the Blind v. 

Paulson, 591 F. Supp. 2d 1 (D.D.C. 

2008) (‘‘ACB v. Paulson’’) requiring the 

Department of the Treasury and BEP to 

‘‘provide meaningful access to United 

States currency for blind and other 

visually impaired persons, which steps 

shall be completed, in connection with 

each denomination of currency, not 

later than the date when a redesign of 

that denomination is next approved by 

the Secretary of the Treasury . . . .’’ 

In compliance with the court’s order, 

BEP intends to meet with blind and 

visually impaired persons and request 

their feedback about tactile features that 

BEP is considering for possible 

incorporation into the next U.S. paper 

currency redesign. BEP employees will 

attend national conventions and 

conferences for disabled persons, as 

well as focus groups and other meetings. 

At those gatherings, BEP employees will 

invite blind and visually impaired 

persons to provide feedback about 

certain tactile features being considered 

for inclusion in future United States 

currency paper designs. In the past BEP 

contracted with specialists in the field 

of tactile acuity to develop a 

methodology for collecting the feedback. 

This same or substantially similar 

methodology will be used to continue 

this information collection. 

Over the next three years, the BEP 

anticipates undertaking a variety of new 

information collection activities related 

to BEP’s continued efforts to provide 

meaningful access to U.S. paper 

currency for blind and visually 

impaired persons. Following standard 

OMB requirements, for each information 

collection that BEP proposes to 

undertake under this generic clearance, 

the OMB will be notified at least two 

weeks in advance and provided with a 

copy of the information collection 

instrument along with supportive 

materials. The BEP will only undertake 

a new collection if the OMB does not 

object to the BEP’s proposal. 

Form: None. 

Affected Public: Individuals and 

households, Businesses and other forprofits, Not-for-profit Institutions. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

650. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Estimated Total Number of Annual 

Responses: 650. 

Estimated Time per Response: 60 

minutes. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden
