datasets, points of contact information, 

metadata information, and links to 

publicly accessible applications that 

leverage the datasets. This information 

collection request for a generic 

clearance is a replacement of the 

emergency ICR approved by OMB. It is 

being submitted in order to fulfill the 

public feedback aspects of this 

important initiative. Data.gov visitors 

will be provided opportunities to 

provide feedback and ratings in the 

spirit of the President’s open 

government and transparency initiative. 

Examples of feedback mechanisms are: 

(1) A five-star rating system to give 

visitors information about which 

datasets other visitors found most useful 

and interesting on the Data.gov Web 

page, 

(2) a ‘‘Suggest Other Datasets’’ entry 

page for the public to submit ideas for 

datasets with an optional contact e-mail 

address provided for those visitors 

wishing to identify themselves, 

(3) a ‘‘Contact Us’’ entry page with an 

optional contact e-mail address for those 

visitors wishing to identify themselves, 

(4) pages for visitors to advise how 

they leverage the datasets in new and 

different ways to build applications, 

conduct analysis, and perform research, 

(5) pages for visitors to rate the benefit 

of the reported new solutions, etc. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average up to 500 hours per 

year. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

The estimated annual burden request 

is summarized here: 

Affected entities: Visitors to Data.gov. 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 22,500. 

Estimated total number of potential 

responses: 22,500. 

Frequency of response: Occasionally. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

500 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: No cost 

to the public; no additional government 

resources. 

What Is the Next Step in the Process for 

This ICR? 

GSA will consider the comments 

received and amend the ICR as 

appropriate. The final ICR package will 

then be submitted to OMB for review 

and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, GSA will issue 

another Federal Register notice 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to 

announce the submission of the ICR to 

OMB and the opportunity to submit 

additional comments to OMB. If you 

have any questions about this ICR or the 

approval process, please contact the

personal data for background check 

investigations for child care workers 

accessing GSA owned and leased

information is necessary and whether it 

will have practical utility; whether our

information to be collected. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose 

Homeland Security Presidential 

Directive (HSPD) 12 ‘‘Policy for a 

Common Identification Standard for 

Federal Employees and Contractors’’ 

requires the implementation of a 

governmentwide standard for secure 

and reliable forms of identification for 

Federal employees and contractors. 

OMB’s implementing instructions 

requires all contract employees 

requiring routine access to Federally 

controlled facilities for greater than six 

(6) months to receive a background 

investigation. The minimum 

background investigation is the National 

Agency Check with Written Inquiries or 

NACI. 

However, there is no requirement in 

the law or HSPD–12 that requires child 

care employees to be subject to the 

NACI since employees of child care 

providers are neither government 

employees nor government contractors. 

Instead, the child care providers are 

required to complete the criminal 

history background checks mandated in 

the Crime Control Act of 1990, Public 

Law 101–647, dated November 29, 1990, 

as amended by Public Law 102–190, 

dated December 5, 1991. These statutes 

require that each employee of a child 

care center located in a Federal building 

or in leased space must undergo a 

background check. 

According to GSA policy, child care 

workers (as described above) will need 

to submit the following: 

1. An original signed copy of a Basic 

National Agency Check Criminal 

History, GSA Form 176; and 

2. Two sets of fingerprints on FBI 

Fingerprint Cards, for FD–258.

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 117 / Friday, June 19, 2009 / Notices 29213 

This information was previously 

collected on either the old Federal 

Protective Service 176 Form or the 

SF85P. This is a request to replace the 

form with the GSA Form 176. The new 

GSA form will be less of a public 

burden. 

Please Note: The original request to review 

and approve the new information collection 

requirement regarding the collection of 

personal data for background check 

investigations was for both temporary 

contractors and child care workers accessing 

GSA owned and leased controlled facilities. 

However, through discussions with OMB a 

more streamlined process will be developed 

for conducting background checks on 

temporary contractors. GSA is therefore 

pulling the request for review and approval 

of the collection of personal data for 

background check investigations of 

temporary contractors, form GSA 176T, 

presented in the Federal Register publication 

of February 17, 2009, 74 FR 7439. GSA is 

proceeding with the request for review and 

approval for background check investigations 

of child care workers, form GSA 176C—to be 

referred to as form GSA 176, Background 

Check Investigations for Child Care Workers.
