50372 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 171 / Wednesday, September 8, 2021 / Notices 

1320.8(d)(1), we provide the general 

public and other Federal agencies with 

an opportunity to comment on new, 

proposed, revised, and continuing 

collections of information. This helps us 

assess the impact of our information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. It also 

helps the public understand our 

information collection requirements and 

provide the requested data in the 

desired format. 

A Federal Register notice with a 60- 

day public comment period soliciting 

comments on this collection of 

information was published on May 11, 

2021, 86, 25882. No comments were 

received. 

As part of our continuing effort to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burdens, we are again soliciting 

comments from the public and other 

Federal agencies on the proposed ICR 

that is described below. We are 

especially interested in public comment 

addressing the following: 

(1) Whether or not the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether or not the 

information will have practical utility. 

(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the 

burden for this collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(4) How might the agency minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond, including through the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of response. 

Comments that you submit in 

response to this notice are a matter of 

public record. Before including your 

address, phone number, email address, 

or other personal identifying 

information in your comment, you 

should be aware that your entire 

comment—including your personal 

identifying information—may be made 

publicly available at any time. While 

you can ask us in your comment to 

withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so. 

Abstract: This notice concerns the 

collection of information that is 

sufficient and relevant to evaluate and 

select proposals for funding under the 

NGGDPP. We will accept proposals 

from state geological surveys requesting 

funds to inventory and assess the 

condition of current collections and 

data preservation needs. Financial 

assistance will be awarded annually on 

a competitive basis following the 

evaluation and ranking of state 

proposals by a review panel composed 

of representatives from the U.S. 

Department of the Interior, state 

geological surveys, and academic 

institutions. To submit a proposal, 

respondents must complete a project 

narrative and submit the application via 

www.grants.gov. Grant recipients must 

complete a final technical report at the 

end of the project period. Narrative and 

report guidance is available at https://

datapreservation.usgs.gov, https://

www.grants.gov, and https://

home.grantsolutions.gov. 

Annual data preservation priorities 

are provided in the Program 

Announcement as guidance for 

applicants to consider when submitting 

proposals. Since its inception in 2007, 

NGGDPP has awarded 46 states with 

$12 million, which, when matched or 

exceeded by the states, amounts to over 

$24 million invested in the rescue and 

preservation efforts. This notice 

concerns the collection of information 

that is sufficient and relevant to 

evaluate and select proposals for 

funding. We will protect information 

from respondents considered 

proprietary under the Freedom of 

Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and 

implementing regulations (43 CFR part 

2), and under regulations at 30 CFR 

250.197, ‘‘Data and information to be 

made available to the public or for 

limited inspection.’’ Responses are 

voluntary. No questions of a ‘‘sensitive’’ 

nature are asked. We intend to release 

the project abstracts and identify states 

for awarded/funded projects only.

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, Interior. 

ACTION: Rescindment of a system of 

records notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of 

the Interior (DOI) is giving notice of its 

intent to rescind the Privacy Act system 

of records, ‘‘Interior, National Business 

Center Datamart, DOI–84,’’ from its 

existing inventory. During a review of 

DOI system of records notices, it was 

determined that this system of records 

notice is no longer necessary as the 

records in the system are covered under 

the INTERIOR/DOI–85, Payroll, 

Attendance, Retirement, and Leave 

Records, system of records notice. This 

rescindment will promote the overall 

streamlining and management of DOI 

Privacy Act systems of records. 

DATES: These changes take effect on 

September 8, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

identified by docket number [DOI–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 

1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a, DOI is 

rescinding the DOI–84, National 

Business Center Datamart, system of 

records notice from its inventory 

because it is no longer needed as the 

records are covered under INTERIOR/ 

DOI–85, Payroll, Attendance, 

Retirement, and Leave Records, 83 FR 

34156 (July 19, 2018). The National 

Business Center Datamart system 

provided a data repository with 

capability to query data and produce 

reports in support of fiscal and payroll 

processing from two Privacy Act 

systems, INTERIOR/DOI–85, Payroll, 

Attendance, Retirement, and Leave 

Records, and INTERIOR/DOI–90, 

Federal Financial System, 64 FR 46930 

(August 27, 1999). 

The Federal Financial System has 

been retired and is no longer used to 

process or maintain financial 

information. DOI is publishing a 

rescindment notice for the INTERIOR/ 

DOI–90, Federal Financial System, 

system notice elsewhere in the Federal 

Register. Since the Federal Financial 

System is retired and Datamart no 

longer processes financial data from that 

system, DOI has determined that the 

DOI–84, National Business Center 

Datamart, system of records notice is no 

longer necessary as it does not identify 

any additional categories of individuals, 

categories of records, or routine uses for 

personnel payroll processing records 

beyond those included in the current 

INTERIOR/DOI–85, Payroll, Attendance, 

Retirement, and Leave Records, system 

of records notice. This rescindment will 

eliminate an unnecessary duplicate 

notice and is in accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974 and the Office of 

Management and Budget Circular A– 

108, Federal Agency Responsibilities for 

Review, Reporting, and Publication 

under the Privacy Act. 

Rescinding the DOI–84, National 

Business Center Datamart, system of 

records notice will have no adverse 

impacts on individuals as the personnel 

payroll records are covered under the 

current INTERIOR/DOI–85, Payroll, 

Attendance, Retirement, and Leave 

Records, system of records notice. This 

rescindment will also promote the 

overall streamlining and management of 

DOI Privacy Act systems of records.
