DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) for clearance the 

following proposal for collection of 

information under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35). 

Agency: National Institute of 

Standards and Technology, U.S. 

Department of Commerce. 

Title: Proposed Information 

Collection; Comment Request; Safety 

and Health Data. 

OMB Control Number: 0693–XXXX. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Request: Regular submission, 

new information collection. 

Number of Respondents: 450 

Average Hours per Response: 5 

minutes per response. 

Burden Hours: 37.5 

Needs and Uses: The National 

Institute of Standards and Technology 

(NIST) has identified a need for OMB 

approval for a myriad of health and 

safety forms. NIST is a unique federal 

campus which hosts daily a range of 

non-federal individuals. In order to 

provide these individuals with proper 

care and health and safety 

documentation, NIST is pursuing a 

general clearance for these forms. 

Affected Public: Some associates, 

volunteers, and visitors to NIST. 

Frequency: As needed. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Many of the 

forms will be voluntarily completed on 

an as needed basis by non-federal 

individuals. For example, if a visitor 

falls ill while visiting campus, they may 

seek care at the health unit and may opt 

in or out of completing the forms. NIST, 

however, does have some instances 

where the completion of forms will be 

mandatory due to potential high level 

public safety issues. There may also be 

documentation based on requirements 

for OSHA compliance. 

This information collection request 

may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow 

the instructions to view Department of 

Commerce collections currently under 

review by OMB. 

Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to OIRA_Submission@

omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806.

DENALI COMMISSION 

Denali Commission Fiscal Year 2018 

Draft Work Plan 

AGENCY: Denali Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Denali Commission 

(Commission) is an independent Federal 

agency based on an innovative federalstate partnership designed to provide 

critical utilities, infrastructure and 

support for economic development and 

training in Alaska by delivering federal 

services in the most cost-effective 

manner possible. The Commission was 

created in 1998 with passage of the 

October 21, 1998 Denali Commission 

Act (Act) (Title III of Pub. L. 105–277). 

The Act requires that the Commission 

develop proposed work plans for future 

spending and that the annual work plan 

be published in the Federal Register, 

providing an opportunity for a 30-day 

period of public review and written 

comment. This Federal Register notice 

serves to announce the 30-day 

opportunity for public comment on the 

Denali Commission Draft Work Plan for 

Federal Fiscal Year 2018 (FY 2018). 

DATES: Comments and related material

Background: The Denali 

Commission’s mission is to partner with 

tribal, federal, state, and local 

governments and collaborate with all 

Alaskans to improve the effectiveness 

and efficiency of government services, 

to build and ensure the operation and 

maintenance of Alaska’s basic 

infrastructure, and to develop a welltrained labor force employed in a 

diversified and sustainable economy. 

By creating the Commission, Congress 

mandated that all parties involved 

partner together to find new and 

innovative solutions to the unique 

infrastructure and economic 

development challenges in America’s 

most remote communities. Pursuant to 

the Act, the Commission determines its 

own basic operating principles and 

funding criteria on an annual federal 

fiscal year (October 1 to September 30) 

basis. The Commission outlines these 

priorities and funding recommendations 

in an annual work plan. The FY 2018 

Work Plan was developed in the 

following manner. 

• A workgroup comprised of Denali 

Commissioners and Commission staff 

developed a preliminary draft work 

plan. 

• The preliminary draft work plan 

was published on Denali.gov for review 

by the public in advance of public 

testimony. 

• A public hearing was held to record 

public comments and recommendations 

on the preliminary draft work plan. 

• Written comments on the 

preliminary draft work plan were 

accepted for another two weeks after the 

public hearing. 

• All public hearing comments and 

written comments were provided to 

Commissioners for their review and 

consideration. 

• Commissioners discussed the 

preliminary draft work plan in a public 

meeting and then voted on the work 

plan during the meeting. 

• The Commissioners forwarded their 

recommended work plan to the Federal 

Co-Chair, who then prepared the draft 

work plan for publication in the Federal 

Register providing a 30-day period for 

public review and written comment. 

During this time, the draft work plan 

will also be disseminated to 

Commission program partners 

including, but not limited to, the Bureau 

of Indian Affairs (BIA), the Economic 

Development Administration (EDA), 

Department of Agriculture—Rural 

Utilities Service (USDA/RUS), and the 

State of Alaska.
