Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 119 / Wednesday, June 22, 2022 / Notices 37305 

7. Period Covered: Each shortage 

situation is approved for one program 

year cycle only. However, any 

previously approved shortage situation 

not filled in a given program year may 

be resubmitted as a retained (carry-over) 

nomination. Retained (carry-over) 

shortage nominations (without any 

revisions) will be automatically 

approved for up to three years before 

requiring another merit review. By 

resubmitting a carry-over nomination, 

the nominating official is affirming that 

in his or her professional judgment the 

original case made for shortage status, 

and the original description of needs, 

remain current and accurate. 

8. Definitions: For the purpose of 

implementing the solicitation for 

veterinary shortage situations, the 

definitions provided in 7 CFR part 3431 

are applicable. Given the evolving 

nature of food supply veterinary 

medicine, the Secretary has determined 

that equines used in agricultural 

production, any vertebrates or 

invertebrates that are consumed by, or 

produce food consumed by, humans are 

to be included in the list of food 

animals. 

B. Nomination Form 

The VMLRP Shortage Nomination 

Form must be used to nominate 

veterinarian shortage situations. Once 

designated as a shortage situation, 

VMLRP applicants will use the 

information to select shortage situations 

they are willing and qualified to fill, and 

to guide the preparation of their 

applications. NIFA will use the 

information to assess contractual 

compliance of awardees. The form is 

available in the VMLRP Shortage 

Situations section at https://

nifa.usda.gov/vmlrp-nomination-anddesignation-veterinary-shortagesituations. See Part II A. 5. for 

submission information. Resources to 

complete each field can be found at 

https://nifa.usda.gov/resource/vmlrpveterinary-shortage-situationnomination-guide and https://

nifa.usda.gov/resource/vmlrp-shortagenomination-form. 

C. NIFA Review of Shortage Situation 

Nominations 

1. Review Panel Composition and 

Process: NIFA will convene a panel of 

food supply veterinary medicine experts 

from Federal and/or State agencies, 

industry, private mixed or large animal 

practice or an institution receiving 

Animal Health and Disease Research 

Program funds under section 1433 of 

NARETPA or an 1862 Land-Grant 

institution, to review the nominations 

and make recommendations to the 

National Program Leader. NIFA will 

review the panel’s recommendations 

and designate the VMLRP shortage 

situations. The list of approved shortage 

situations will be made available on the 

VMLRP website at www.nifa.usda.gov/ 

vmlrp. 

2. Review Criteria: Criteria used by the 

shortage situation nomination review 

panel and NIFA for certifying a 

veterinary shortage situation will be 

consistent with the information 

requested in the shortage situations 

nomination form. NIFA understands the 

process for defining the risk landscape 

associated veterinary service shortages 

within a State may require 

consideration of many qualitative and 

quantitative factors. In addition, each 

shortage situation will be characterized 

by a different array of subjective and 

objective supportive information that 

must be developed into a cogent case 

identifying, characterizing, and 

justifying a given geographic or 

disciplinary area as deficient in certain 

types of veterinary capacity or service. 

To accommodate the uniqueness of each 

shortage situation, the nomination form 

provides opportunities to present a case 

using both supportive metrics and 

narrative explanations to define and 

explain the proposed need. 

While NIFA anticipates some 

arguments made in support of a given 

shortage situation will be qualitative, 

respondents are encouraged to present 

verifiable quantitative and qualitative 

evidentiary information wherever 

possible. Absence of sufficient data to 

support a shortage such as animal and 

veterinarian census data for the 

proposed shortage area(s), or sufficient 

information regarding the characteristics 

of the shortage so that applicants may 

prepare successful applications and 

panelists are able to fully evaluate the 

fit of the applicant to the shortage area, 

may lead the panel to recommend 

revision of the shortage nomination to 

address these issues. If the revisions are 

not addressed, the shortage nominations 

will not be approved. 

Done in Washington, DC, this day of May 

24, 2022.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Census Bureau 

Agency Information Collection 

Activities; Submission to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

Review and Approval; Comment 

Request; Vehicle Inventory and Use 

Survey 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit the following information 

collection request to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

review and clearance in accordance 

with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995, on or after the date of publication 

of this notice. We invite the general 

public and other Federal agencies to 

comment on proposed, and continuing 

information collections, which helps us 

assess the impact of our information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. Public 

comments were previously requested 

via the Federal Register on April 15, 

2022, during a 60-day comment period. 

This notice allows for an additional 30 

days for public comments. 

Agency: U.S. Census Bureau, 

Commerce. 

Title: Vehicle Inventory and Use 

Survey. 

OMB Control Number: 0607–0892. 

Form Number(s): TC–9501, TC–9502. 

Type of Request: Regular submission, 

Request for a Revision of a Currently 

Approved Collection. 

Number of Respondents: 150,000. 

Average Hours per Response: 65 

minutes. 

Burden Hours: 162,500. 

Needs and Uses: The 2021 VIUS 

collects data to measure the physical 

and operational characteristics of trucks 

from a sample of approximately 150,000 

trucks. These trucks are selected from 

more than 190 million private and 

commercial trucks registered with motor 

vehicle departments in the 50 states and 

the District of Columbia. The Census 

Bureau is collecting the data for the 

sampled trucks from the registered truck 

owners. 

The VIUS is the only comprehensive 

source of information on the physical 

and operational characteristics of the 

Nation’s truck population. The VIUS 

provides unique, essential information 

for government, business, and academia. 

The U.S. Department of Transportation, 

State Departments of Transportation, 

and transportation consultants 

compliment VIUS microdata as 

extremely useful and flexible to meet 

constantly changing requests that 

cannot be met with predetermined 

tabular publications. The planned 

microdata file will enable them to crosstabulate data to meet their needs. 

This revision is being submitted to 

correct the legal citations related to the 

collection authority for the Vehicle 

Inventory and Use Survey (VIUS). We 

initially received clearance to add the 

corrected citation using the emergency 

clearance process, which was approved 

separately. The emergency clearance 

was necessary because we needed to 

implement the change immediately 

during data collection for the survey. 

This revision is to now add Title 13 

U.S.C., Section 221 to the collection 

authority under the original clearance 

and to allow a full review at OMB.
