The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is proposing new regulations, created pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 1973gg-7(a). On July 29, 2009, a notice was published in the Federal Register, stating that the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and the EAC jointly took action to transfer regulations implementing the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA) from the FEC to the EAC. The Help America Vote Act of 2002 transferred the FEC’s former statutory authority regarding the NVRA regulations to the EAC. The information collection associated with the NVRA regulations deals with the collection of information from states concerning the impact and implementation of the NVRA.
Pursuant to 44 USC 3507(j)(1), the U.S. Election Assistance Commission is requesting emergency approval. The data collection is needed prior to the expiration of time periods established under 5 CFR 1320.13, and essential to the mission of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission. The normal clearance procedures are reasonably likely to prevent the collection of information. Pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.13, the EAC will take all practicable steps to consult with both the public and interested agencies in order to minimize the burden of the collection of information.

Changing Regulations
No
The Federal Election Commission ("FEC") and the U.S. Election Assistance Commission ("EAC") jointly took action to transfer regulations implementing the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 ("NVRA") from the FEC to the EAC. The FEC is statutorily exempted from the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act ("PRA"), while the EAC is not. Therefore, this existing information collection does not have an associated OMB control number. There is no new burden as the information collection related to the NVRA regulations is 1/3 of the information that is currently collected by the Election Administration and Voting Survey.
