SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0931. 

Title: Maritime Mobile Service 

Identity (MMSI). 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Individuals or 

households; business or other for-profit; 

and Federal Government. 

Number of Respondents: 40,000 

respondents; 40,000 responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: .25 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement and third party 

disclosure requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. There is no 

statutory authority for this information 

collection. However, the Memorandum 

of Understanding (MOU) states that it is 

in accordance with Appendix 43 of the 

Radio Regulations. 

Total Annual Burden: 10,000 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: N/A. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Yes. 

The FCC has a System of Records Notice 

(SORN), FCC/WTB–1, ‘‘Wireless 

Services Licensing Records’’, to cover 

the personally identifiable information 

affected by these information collection 

requirements. At this time, the 

Commission (FCC) is not required to 

complete a Privacy Impact Assessment. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

There is a need for confidentiality with 

respect to all owners of Marine VHF 

radios with Digital Selective Calling 

(DSC) capability in this collection. 

Pursuant to section 208(b) of the EGovernment Act of 2002, 44 U.S.C. 

section 3501, in conformance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552(a), the 

Wireless Telecommunications Bureau 

instructs licensees to use the FCC’s 

Universal Licensing System (ULS), 

Antenna Structure Registration (ASR), 

Commission Registration System 

(CORES) and related systems and 

subsystems to submit information. 

CORES is used to receive an FCC 

Registration Number (FRN) and 

password, after which one must register 

all current call signs and ASR numbers 

associated with a FRN within the 

Bureau’s system of records (ULS 

database). Although ULS stores all 

information pertaining to the individual 

license via the FRN, confidential 

information is accessible only by 

persons or entities that hold the 

password for each account, and the 

Bureau’s Licensing Division staff. Upon 

the request of a FRN, the individual 

licensee is consenting to make publicly 

available, via the ULS database, all 

information that is not confidential in 

nature. Information on the marine VHF 

radios with DSC capability is 

maintained in the Commission’s system 

of records, FCC/WTB–1, ‘‘Wireless 

Services Licensing Records.’’ The 

licensee records will be publicly 

available and routinely used in 

accordance with subsection (b) of the 

Privacy Act. FRN numbers and material 

which is afforded confidential treatment 

pursuant to a request made under 47 

CFR 0.459 of the Commission’s rules 

will not be available for public 

inspection. Any personally identifiable 

information (PII) that individual 

applicants provide is covered by a 

system of records (FCC/WTB–1, 

‘‘Wireless Services Licensing Records’’) 

and these and all other records may be 

disclosed pursuant to the routine uses 

as stated in the system of records notice. 

Needs and Uses: The Commission 

will submit this information collection 

to the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) after this 60 day comment period 

in order to obtain the full three year 

clearance from them. The Commission 

is requesting an extension (no change in 

the reporting and/or third party 

disclosure requirements) of this 

information collection. The Commission 

is reporting a significant increase in the 

estimated number of respondents/ 

responses since this was last submitted 

to OMB in 2006. In 2006, the 

Commission reported 2,000 

respondents/responses with 1,000 total 

annual burden hours. For this 

submission to the OMB, the number of 

respondents increased by 38,000 with 

an estimated annual burden of 10,000 

burden hours. 

The information collection is 

necessary to require owners of marine 

VHF radios with Digital Selective 

Calling (DSC) capability to register 

information such as the name, address, 

type of vessel with a private entity 

issuing marine mobile service identities 

(MMSI). The information would be used 

by search and rescue personnel to 

identify vessels in distress and to select 

the proper rescue units and search 

methods. The requirement to collect this 

information is not contained in a 

Commission rule or formal FCC order, 

but in the agreements the FCC executes 

with private sector entities that issue 

MMSI’s. 

The information is used by private 

entities to maintain a database used to 

provide information about the vessel 

owner in distress using marine VHF 

radios with DSC capability. If the 

collection were not conducted, the U.S. 

Coast Guard would not have access to 

this information which would increase 

the time and effort needed to complete 

a search and rescue operation.

Record of Decision for the Department 

of Homeland Security Headquarters 

Consolidation at St. Elizabeths in 

Southeast, Washington, DC 

AGENCY: National Capital Region, U.S. 

General Services Administration (GSA). 

ACTION: Notice; record of decision. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the requirements 

of the National Environmental Policy 

Act of 1969 (NEPA), 42 U.S.C. 4321– 

4347, the Council on Environmental 

Quality Regulations (40 CFR parts 1500– 

1508), GSA Order PBS P 1095.1F 

(Environmental considerations in 

decision-making, dated October 19, 

1999), and the GSA Public Buildings 

Service NEPA Desk Guide, dated 

October 1999, on December 16, 2008, 

GSA issued a Record of Decision on the 

DHS Headquarters Consolidation at St. 

Elizabeths Final Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) (GSA, November 2008) 

to implement Campus Redevelopment 

Alternative 5 as defined in the Final 

EIS. The complete Record of Decision 

(ROD) can be viewed on the project Web 

site: http:// 

www.stelizabethswestcampus.com. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Denise Decker, NEPA Lead, National 

Capital Region, General Services 

Administration, at (202) 538–5643. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Decision: 

It is the decision of the Acting 

Regional Administrator of GSA, 

National Capital Region to: 

(1) Implement Campus 

Redevelopment Alternative 5, which 

requires part of the 4.5 million GSF of 

secure office space, plus parking, 

needed for the DHS consolidated 

headquarters to be located on the St. 

Elizabeths East Campus. Alternative 5 

includes the construction of 3.8 million 

GSF of office and shared use space in 

both new and adaptively re-used 

buildings, together with 3,459 parking 

spaces for the consolidation of DHS 

Headquarters at the St. Elizabeths West 

Campus in Southeast, Washington, DC. 

Alternative 5 also includes an 

additional 750,000 GSF of office and 

shared use space together with 775 

parking spaces that will be located on 

the St. Elizabeths East Campus. The 

selection of Alternative 5 contemplates 

the use of the East Campus parcel for 

the project. However, the ROD does not 

authorize any ground disturbing 

activities on the East Campus. 

Implementation of ground disturbing 

activities on the East Campus will be 

considered in a separate EIS and, unless 

the no-build alternative is selected, 

implemented in a separate ROD. In 

accordance with the conditions set forth 

in the December 16, 2008 ROD, certain 

West Campus ground disturbing 

activities are authorized prior to 

completion of the contemplated East 

Campus ROD. 

(2) Implement Martin Luther King, Jr. 

Avenue Traffic Improvement 

Alternative 2, as defined in Volume 2 of 

the FEIS. Alternative 2 accommodates 

left turning lanes into Gates 1 and 2 of 

the West Campus. Selection of this 

alternative is based on coordination 

with, and is subject to, subsequent final 

determinations of the District of 

Columbia Department of Transportation 

(DDOT). Alternative 2 may be 

implemented immediately after 

approval by DDOT. 

(3) Implement, in cooperation with 

the Federal Highway Administration 

(FHWA), Interchange Alternative I–2, as 

described in Volume II of the Final EIS. 

Alternative I–2 provides for the 

construction of a new access road for St. 

Elizabeths West Campus, from Firth 

Sterling Avenue to Malcolm X Avenue 

and connecting to the Malcolm X 

interchange as outlined in Volume 2 of 

the Final EIS. Selection of this 

alternative is based on coordination 

with FHWA and is subject to its 

subsequent final determinations. 

The ROD documents the specific 

components of GSA’s decision and the 

rationale for the decision. This decision 

is based on information and analyses 

contained in the Draft EIS issued in 

September 2007; the Final EIS issued in 

November 2008; the comments of 

Federal and State agencies, stakeholder 

organizations, members of the public, 

and elected officials; and other 

information in the administrative 

record.
