Background: The National Institute 

for Occupational Safety and Health 

(NIOSH) currently leads a nationwide 

initiative called Prevention through 

Design (PtD). PtD addresses 

occupational safety and health needs by 

eliminating hazards and minimizing 

risks to workers throughout the life 

cycle of work premises, tools, 

equipment, machinery, substances, and 

work processes including their 

construction, manufacture, use, 

maintenance, and ultimate disposal or 

re-use. The strategic plan outlined in 

this technical report establishes goals 

for the successful implementation of the 

PtD Plan for the National Initiative. This 

comprehensive approach, which 

includes worker health and safety in all 

aspects of design, redesign and retrofit, 

will provide a vital framework for 

saving lives and preventing workrelated injuries and illnesses. 

This guidance document does not 

have the force and effect of law.

(ICR) to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) for review and clearance 

in accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 

44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). The Policy 

Directorate/Office of Strategic Plans is 

soliciting comments concerning the 

Quadrennial Homeland Security Report. 

The purpose of this notice is to allow 

additional 30-days for public comments. 

DATES: Comments are encouraged and 

will be accepted until July 2, 2009. This 

process is conducted in accordance with 

5 CFR 1320.10. 

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are 

invited to submit written comments on 

the proposed information collection to 

the Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs, Office of Management and 

Budget. Comments should be addressed 

to OMB Desk Officer, Department of 

Homeland Security, Office of Civil 

Rights and Civil Liberties, and sent via 

electronic mail to 

oira_submission@omb.eop.gov or faxed 

to (202) 395–6974. 

The Office of Management and Budget 

is particularly interested in comments 

which: 

1. Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

26410 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 104 / Tuesday, June 2, 2009 / Notices 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

4. 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 submissions 

of responses. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If 

additional information is required 

contact: the Department of Homeland 

Security (DHS), Policy Directorate/ 

Office of Strategic Plans, Michael 

Galang, (202) 282–9118. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Implementing Recommendations of the 

9/11 Commission Act of 2007 mandated 

the QHSR and included the following 

consultation requirement: ‘‘The 

Secretary shall conduct each 

quadrennial homeland security review 

under this subsection in consultation 

with—(A) The heads of other Federal 

agencies, including the Attorney 

General, the Secretary of State, the 

Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of 

Health and Human Services, the 

Secretary of the Treasury, the Secretary 

of Agriculture, and the Director of 

National Intelligence; (B) key officials of 

the Department; and (C) other relevant 

governmental and nongovernmental 

entities, including State, local, and 

tribal government officials, members of 

Congress, private sector representatives, 

academics, and other policy experts.’’ 

The homeland security community is 

so vast that physically convening 

representative and inclusive study 

groups that are also able to work 

efficiently and effectively is virtually 

impossible. Therefore, DHS will fulfill 

QHSR consultation requirements 

through a number of mechanisms, 

including collaborative web-based 

engagement tools. In doing so, DHS 

intends to create a true national 

dialogue on homeland security. A 

national dialogue platform will be 

created and hosted to engage homeland 

security stakeholders around the 

compelling questions, ideas, or concepts 

that emerge through the QHSR process. 

The dialogue platform is based on the 

principle of radical scalability: The 

more feedback that is received, the more 

clearly sorted participants’ preferences 

and priorities become. In a national 

dialogue, users can submit their best 

ideas, refine them in open discussion, 

and use simple rating and tagging 

features to identify the most popular 

ideas and important overarching 

themes. The platform can host multiple 

simultaneous dialogues, and 

dynamically pose new questions, so that 

DHS can repeatedly ‘‘pulse’’ 

participants over a three-month 

timeframe. 

Ideas, comments, or position papers 

will also be solicited at the outset of the 

review and accepted via electronic 

means. All submitted position papers 

will inform the QHSR Study Groups as 

they initiate their analyses. All 

homeland security stakeholders are 

eligible and are invited to provide input. 

A letter from Secretary Napolitano will 

be sent to each stakeholder association 

inviting their input.
