for Vessels of the Armed Forces’’ or 

‘‘UNDS’’) no-discharge zones for 

discharges from Armed Forces vessels 

may be established by either state 

prohibition or EPA prohibition 

following the procedures in 40 CFR part 

1700. UNDS also provides that the 

Governor of any state may petition EPA 

and the Secretary of Defense to review 

any determination or standard 

promulgated under the UNDS program 

if there is significant new information 

that could reasonably result in a change 

to the determination or standard. This 

ICR discusses the information that is 

required from a state if it decides (1) to 

establish a NDZ by state prohibition or 

(2) to apply for a NDZ by EPA 

prohibition for the UNDS discharges for 

which EPA and DOD have determined 

that it is not reasonable or practicable to 

require a Marine Pollution Control 

Device to mitigate adverse effects on the 

marine environment. 40 CFR 1700.5. 

The ICR also discusses the information 

that is required from a state to submit 

a petition for review of EPA and DOD 

determinations that it is not reasonable 

or practicable to require a Marine 

Pollution Control Device for a particular 

UNDS discharge identified at 40 CFR 

1700.5. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: States 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

The responses to this collection of 

information are required to obtain the 

benefit of a sewage NDZ (CWA sections 

312(f)(3), (f)(4)(A), and (f)(4)(B), and 

subsequent regulations at 40 CFR 140.4. 

The responses to this collection of 

information are required to obtain the 

benefit of an UNDS NDZ or a review of 

an UNDS determination or standard (see 

33 U.S.C. 1322(n)). 

Estimated number of respondents: 20 

(total). 

Frequency of response: One time. 

Total estimated burden: 1,083 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR

Total estimated cost: $54,938 (per 

year), includes $998 annualized capital 

or operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 1,183 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This decrease is due to 

adjustments to the estimates reflecting a 

reduction in expected program activity.

Abstract: The Beaches Environmental 

Assessment and Coastal Health 

(BEACH) Act amends the Clean Water 

Act (CWA) in part and authorizes the 

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) to award BEACH Act Program 

Development and Implementation 

Grants to coastal and Great Lakes states, 

tribes, and territories (collectively 

referred to as states) for their beach 

monitoring and notification programs. 

The grants assist those states to develop 

and implement a consistent approach to 

monitor recreational water quality; 

assess, manage, and communicate 

health risks from waterborne microbial 

contamination; notify the public of 

pollution occurrences, and post beach 

advisories and closures to prevent 

public exposure to microbial pathogens. 

To qualify for a BEACH Act Grant, a 

state must submit information to EPA 

documenting that its beach monitoring 

and notification program is consistent 

with 11 performance criteria outlined in 

the National Beach Guidance and 

Required Performance Criteria for 

Grants, 2014 Edition. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Environmental and public health 

agencies in states, territories, and tribes. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Required (Environmental Assessment 

and Coastal Health (BEACH) Act 

amendment to the Clean Water Act 

(CWA)). 

Estimated number of respondents: 38 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Annually & 

quarterly. 

Total estimated burden: 91,276 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b) 

Total estimated cost: $15,453,308 (per 

year), includes $11,353,146 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in Estimates: There is an 

increase of 2,464 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase is due to an 

additional respondent qualifying for a 

grant, however this increase is partially

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a 

summary of public notice (DA 15–1398) 

released on December 9, 2015. The 

complete text of the public notice is 

available for viewing via the 

Commission’s ECFS Web site by 

entering the docket number, WT Docket 

No. 12–354. The complete text of the 

public notice is also available for public 

inspection and copying from 8:00 a.m. 

to 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) Monday 

through Thursday or from 8:00 a.m. to 

11:30 a.m. ET on Fridays in the FCC 

Reference Information Center, 445 12th 

Street SW., Room CY–B402, 

Washington, DC 20554, telephone 202– 

488–5300, fax 202–488–5563, or you 

may contact BCPI at its Web site: 

http://www.BCPIWEB.com. When 

ordering documents from BCPI, please 

provide the appropriate FCC document 

number, for example, DA 15–1398. 

In the notice, the Bureau extends the 

comment deadline for a public notice 

seeking comment on the appropriate 

methodology for determining the 

protected interference contours for 

existing 3650–3700 MHz wireless 

broadband licensees during a fixed 

transition period. Interested parties will 

now have until December 28, 2015 to 

file comments and until January 12, 

2016 to file reply comments. 

On December 7, 2015, the Wireless 

Innovation Forum (WinnForum) filed a 

request to extend the comment and 

reply comment deadline for the 3650– 

3700 MHz Band Protection Contours 

Public Notice from December 10, 2015 

until December 28, 2015 for comments 

and from December 28, 2015 to January 

12, 2016 for reply comments. 

WinnForum states that the forum’s 

Spectrum Sharing Committee 

established a Task Group, comprised of 

both Part 90 incumbent licensees and 

potential Part 96 entities, to address the 

questions raised in the 3650–3700 MHz 

Band Protection Contours Public Notice. 

WinnForum explains that the Task 

Group has reached general agreement on 

specific aspects for Part 90 protections 

but they will not be able to ballot 

comments prior to the comment filing 

deadline. 

As set forth in section 1.46(a) of the 

Commission’s rules, ‘‘it is the policy of 

the Commission that extensions of time 

shall not be routinely granted.’’ 

However, in this case, we believe it is 

in the public interest to grant an 

extension to promote industry 

consensus and allow all interested to 

include their comments on the record at 

the comment deadline, as the 

WinnForum represents future Part 96 

users and representatives of existing 

3650–3700 MHz licensees. This will 

ensure that Commission has a complete 

record and all parties can fully address 

the complicated issues raised in the 

3650–3700 MHz Band Protection 

Contours Public Notice. A limited 

extension will not negatively affect 

existing operators or delay deployment 

of new systems in the 3650–3700 MHz 

band. 

This proceeding has been designated 

as a ‘‘permit-but-disclose’’ proceeding in 

accordance with the Commission’s ex 

parte rules. Persons making ex parte 

presentations must file a copy of any 

written presentation or a memorandum 

summarizing any oral presentation 

within two business days after the 

presentation (unless a different deadline 

applicable to the Sunshine period 

applies). Persons making oral ex parte 

presentations are reminded that 

memoranda summarizing the 

presentation must (1) list all persons 

attending or otherwise participating in 

the meeting at which the ex parte 

presentation was made, and (2) 

summarize all data presented and 

arguments made during the 

presentation. If the presentation 

consisted in whole or in part of the 

presentation of data or arguments 

already reflected in the presenter’s 

written comments, memoranda or other 

filings in the proceeding, the presenter
