Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 11 / Wednesday, January 16, 2013 / Notices
An environmental assessment (EA)
was prepared analyzing the effects of
the permitted activities on the human
environment in compliance with the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). Based on
the analyses in the EA, NMFS
determined that issuance of the permit
would not significantly impact the
quality of the human environment and
that preparation of an environmental
impact statement was not required. That
determination is documented in a
Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI), signed on October 9, 2012.
As required by the ESA, issuance of
this permit was based on a finding that
such permit: (1) Was applied for in good
faith; (2) will not operate to the
disadvantage of such endangered
species; and (3) is consistent with the
purposes and policies set forth in
section 2 of the ESA.
Dated: January 10, 2013.

the government and non-profit agencies
would like to receive the anti-fraud
information from the CFTC.

Community Service.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The Corporation for National
and Community Service (CNCS), as part
of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirement on respondents can be
properly assessed.
CNCS is soliciting comments
concerning its proposed assessment of
Training and Technical Assistance
(TTA) investments. At present,
assessment of TTA consists of analysis
of client satisfaction feedback with
aggregations of post training-participant
evaluations collected thru TTA
Providers funded under cooperative
agreements. TTA Providers are required
to report post-training outputs and
customer satisfaction data covered
under OMB Control #3045–0105.
Additional pre- and post-knowledge
gain assessments instruments are
proposed to collect evidence of any
learning that actually occurred as a
result of the training or return on
investment for the training cost.
Copies of the information collection
request can be obtained by contacting
the office listed in the addresses section
of this Notice.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the individual and office
listed in the ADDRESSES section by
March 18, 2013.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,
identified by the title of the information
collection activity, by any of the

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Ralph Morales, (202) 606–6829, or by
email at [email protected].
CNCS is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of CNCS, including whether
the information will have practical
utility;
• 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;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are expected to respond, including 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background
CNCS provides TTA to its grantees in
topic areas related to program quality,
compliance, and performance
measurement through an online
learning site as well as through face-toface sessions conducted by consultants
procured through contractors or
cooperative agreements as well as CNCS
staff. The effectiveness of this training
and technical assistance is currently
evaluated through analysis of client
satisfaction feedback in aggregate form
(see OMB Control #3045–0105).

Current Action
In addition to the data currently being
collected, CNCS wishes to evaluate the
knowledge gains of participants who
partake in the training and technical
assistance programs by administering
pre- and post-test instruments to
participants. CNCS will collect this
information through specific online
courses or face-to-face training
designated as a part of the CNCS core
curriculum. If the training is conducted
through a grantee or contractor the
contractor will collect on CNCS’ behalf.
However CNCS will aggregate data
across TTA activities for internal
analysis. If the CNCS should itself
conduct training and/or technical
assistance, the same pre- and post-test
instruments would be used to gather
knowledge gain data. The information
collection will be used to further
evaluate the effectiveness of the
Corporation’s training and technical
assistance offerings to participants.

Agency: Corporation for National and
Community Service.
