embedded third-party software or an 

external website. (14 CFR 382.43(e)). 

Carriers must provide a disclaimer 

notice for each link on their primary 

website that enables a user to access 

software or an external website that is 

not in the carrier’s control. The 

disclaimer notice must be activated the 

first time a user clicks the link and must 

notify the user that the application/ 

website is not within the carrier’s 

control and may not follow the same 

accessibility policies as the primary 

website. The Department anticipates 

that each covered U.S. and foreign 

carrier will incur costs associated with 

identifying all links on their websites 

that may require a disclaimer such as 

developing and reviewing the design 

and language for the disclaimer notice, 

as well as developing, testing, and 

deploying the code to the appropriate 

web pages. 

The incremental labor hours 

associated with providing the required 

disclaimer may vary depending on the 

number of links on the website to which 

this requirement applies. The FRA 

estimated that it will take an average of 

6 labor hours per carrier to identify the 

links and then develop, test, and deploy 

the disclaimer notice on the website. We 

also estimate that it will take less than 

30 minutes per year for a carrier to 

associate the notice with any new links 

to external websites or third-party 

software added to their websites. 

Respondents: Certificated U.S. and 

foreign air carriers operating to, from, 

and within the United States that 

operate at least one aircraft having a 

seating capacity of more than 60 

passengers and own or control a 

primary website that markets air 

transportation to the general public in 

the United States. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

170 U.S. and foreign carriers, of which 

the Department expects all to have 

achieved compliance with the 

requirement in a prior year. The 

Department estimates that each year 

there will be 14 new respondent 

carriers. 

Estimated Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 6 hours for carriers to 

create, test, and deploy the disclaimer. 

30 minutes for carriers compliant in 

prior years to associate the notice with 

new links and third-party software. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 169 

hours. This estimate was calculated by 

multiplying the total number of labor 

hours per year that a carrier is estimated 

to spend to develop, test, and deploy the 

online request form (6) by the estimated 

number of new respondent carriers each 

year (14). To that total we added the 

product of the number of hours that we 

estimated carriers may spend 

associating the notice with new 

weblinks (.5 hours) and the number of 

carriers that are expected to have 

achieved compliance in a prior year 

(170). 

Frequency: One-time and recurrent 

requirements. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: (a) 

whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the 

Department’s performance; (b) the 

accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) 

ways for the Department to enhance the 

quality, utility and clarity of the 

information collection; and (d) ways 

that the burden could be minimized 

without reducing the quality of the 

collected information. The agency will 

summarize and/or include your 

comments in the request for OMB’s 

clearance of this information collection.

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS 

AFFAIRS 

Monetary Allowance for Outer Burial 

Receptacles 

AGENCY: Department of Veterans Affairs. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Veterans 

Affairs (VA) is providing notice of the 

monetary allowance amount payable for 

outer burial receptacles (OBR) for 

qualifying interments in a VA national 

cemetery or in a VA grant-funded 

veterans cemetery that occur during 

calendar year (CY) 2025. The allowance 

is equal to the average cost of 

Government-furnished graveliners less 

any administrative costs associated with 

processing and paying the allowance. 

The purpose of this notice is to inform 

interested parties of the average cost of 

Government-furnished graveliners, 

associated administrative costs, and the 

allowance amount payable for 

qualifying interments that occur in CY 

2025. 

DATES: This allowance amount is 

effective on January 1, 2025. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

William Carter, Chief of Budget 

Execution Division, National Cemetery 

Administration, Department of Veterans 

Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue NW, 

Washington, DC 20420, telephone: 202– 

461–9764 (this is not a toll-free 

number). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

2306(e) of title 38, United States Code, 

authorizes VA to provide an OBR for 

each new grave used for casketed 

remains in an open VA national 

cemetery or in a cemetery that is the 

subject of a grant to a State or Tribal 

Organization under 38 U.S.C. 2408. 

Section 2306(e)(4) authorizes VA to 

administer this benefit using a voucher 

system or other system of 

reimbursement in situations where an 

OBR is purchased or provided in lieu of 

a Government-furnished graveliner. VA 

administers the OBR monetary 

allowance in accordance with 38 CFR 

38.629, which specifies when payment 

of the monetary allowance is authorized 

and how the allowance amount is 

determined each year and requires VA 

to post the amount of the allowance in 

the Notices section of the Federal 

Register. This notice serves the purpose 

of meeting that requirement for CY 

2025. 

The allowance for qualified 

interments that occur during CY 2025 is 

equal to the average cost of Governmentfurnished graveliners in fiscal year (FY) 

2024, less the administrative cost 

incurred by VA in processing and 

paying the allowance in lieu of the 

Government-furnished graveliner. 

The average cost of Governmentfurnished graveliners is determined by 

taking VA’s total cost during a fiscal 

year for single-depth graveliners that 

were procured for placement at the time 

of interment and dividing it by the total 

number of such graveliners procured by 

VA during that fiscal year. The 

calculation excludes both graveliners 

pre-placed in gravesites as part of 

cemetery gravesite development projects 

and all double-depth graveliners. Using 

this method of computation, the average 

cost was determined to be $439.00 for 

FY 2024. 

The administrative cost is based on 

the costs incurred by VA during CY 

2024 that relate to processing and 

paying an allowance in lieu of the 

Government-furnished graveliner. This 

cost has been determined to be $9.00. 

The allowance payable for qualifying 

interments occurring during CY 2025, 

therefore, is $430.00.
