60 Day Renewal Notice

Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 91 / Friday, May 9, 2008 / Notices

Street, NW., Washington, DC 20472,
202–646–3100.
On
February 28, 2003, the President issued
Homeland Security Presidential
Directive–5 (HSPD–5), Management of
Domestic Incidents, which directed the
Secretary of Homeland Security to
develop and administer a National
Incident Management System (NIMS).
This system provides a consistent
nationwide template to enable Federal,
State, tribal, and local governments, the
private sector, and nongovernmental
organizations to work together to
prevent, protect against, respond to,
recover from, and mitigate the effects of
incidents, regardless of cause, size,
location, or complexity in order to
reduce the loss of life and property, and
the harm to the environment. This
consistency provides the foundation for
utilization of NIMS for all incidents,
ranging from daily occurrences to
incidents requiring a coordinated
Federal response. NIMS represents a
core set of doctrines, concepts,
principles, terminology, and
organizational processes that enables
effective, efficient, and collaborative
incident management.
Building on the foundation provided
by existing emergency management and
incident response systems used by
jurisdictions, organizations, and
functional disciplines at all levels, the
NIMS document integrates best
practices into a comprehensive
framework for use by emergency
management/response personnel in an
all-hazards context nationwide. These
best practices lay the groundwork for
the components of NIMS and provide
the mechanisms for the further
development and refinement of
supporting national standards,
guidelines, protocols, systems, and
technologies. NIMS fosters the
development of specialized technologies
that facilitate emergency management
and incident response activities and
allows for the adoption of new
approaches that will enable continuous
refinement of NIMS over time.
The changes reflected in the revised
document are not substantively
dramatic, and do not alter the basic
NIMS doctrine published in the 2004
version. The Department is providing
the current draft of the NIMS for public
comment; this draft document does not
necessarily reflect the final policy of the
Administration.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The Information Collection
Request documentation is available at
www.reginfo.gov. Therefore, in
preparation for OMB review and
approval of the following information
collection, TSA is soliciting comments
to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;

Frm 00047

Fmt 4703

(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(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 using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
1652–0030; TSA Customer Comment
Card. This collection continues a
voluntary program for airport
passengers to provide feedback to TSA
regarding their experiences with TSA
security procedures. This collection of
information allows TSA to evaluate and
address customer concerns about
security procedures and policies.
TSA Customer Comment Cards will
collect feedback and the passenger’s
contact information if voluntarily
provided. TSA may use the contact
information to respond to the
passenger’s comments. For passengers
who deposit their cards in the
designated drop-boxes, TSA staff at
airports will collect the cards, categorize
comments, enter the results into an
online system for reporting, and
respond to passengers as appropriate.
Passengers also have the option to mail
the cards directly the address provided
on the comment card which will vary by
airport. The TSA Contact Center will
continue to be available for passengers
to make comments independently of
airport involvement.
TSA estimates the number of
respondents to be 1,783,800, with an
estimated number of 150,880 annual
burden hours.
