comment period. This notice allows for
an additional 30 days for public
comments. This process is conducted in
accordance with 5 CFR 1320.10. Written

information without requiring aliens to
apply for a visa more frequently. The
EVUS requirements apply to
nonimmigrant aliens who hold a
passport issued by an identified country
containing a U.S. nonimmigrant visa of
a designated category. EVUS enrollment
is currently limited to nonimmigrant
aliens who hold unrestricted, maximum
validity B–1 (business visitor), B–2
(visitor for pleasure), or combination B–
1/B–2 visas, which are generally valid
for 10 years, contained in a passport
issued by the People’s Republic of
China.
EVUS provides for greater efficiencies
in the screening of international
travelers by allowing DHS to identify
nonimmigrant aliens who may be
inadmissible before they depart for the
United States, thereby increasing
security and reducing traveler delays
upon arrival at U.S. ports of entry.
EVUS aids DHS in facilitating legitimate
travel while also enhancing public
safety and national security.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 2006,
Congress passed Public Law 109–295,
which created the Office of Emergency
Communications (OEC) headed by a
Director of Emergency Communications.
Responsibilities of the Director include
assisting the Secretary in developing
and implementing a program to support
and promote the ability of emergency
response providers and relevant
government officials to continue to
communicate in the event of natural
disasters, acts of terrorism, and other
man-made disasters; and ensure,
accelerate, and attain interoperable
emergency communications nationwide.
Title 6 U.S.C. 571(c)(4) requires the
DHS Secretary through the OEC Director
to conduct extensive, nationwide
outreach to support and promote the
ability of emergency response providers
and relevant government officials to
continue to communicate in the event of

natural disasters, acts of terrorism, and
other man-made disasters. In order to
perform this statutory regulation it is
important to understand the variety of
technology being used today.
Additionally, 6 U.S.C. 573 requires the
DHS Secretary to conduct a baseline
assessment of the first responder
emergency communications capabilities
at least every five years.
These authorities in addition to DHS’s
responsibilities through E.O. 13618 in
the area of national security/emergency
providers’ communications require a
renewed examination of baseline
emergency communications
capabilities.
The Office of Emergency
Communication’s SAFECOM
Nationwide Survey (SNS) purpose is to
gather information to assess available
capabilities, identify gaps and needs for
emergency response providers to
effectively communicate during all
types of natural or man-made hazards.
In order to ascertain this information the
SNS will deploy four distinctive surveys
across the nation addressing emergency
response entities at each level of
government: Federal, State and
Territorial, Tribal, and Local. The SNS
is built on a foundation of core elements
identified by OEC and its stakeholders
as ‘‘must haves’’ in order to achieve
open and secure communications
operability, interoperability and
continuity. These elements are
interdependent critical success factors
that must be addressed to plan for and
implement public safety
communications capability. As such,
these elements are Governance,
Standard Operating Procedures,
Training and Exercises, Technology,
Usage and Security. The survey will
encompass questions regarding each
major element in order to determine a
jurisdiction’s level of operability,
interoperability and continuity and thus
their overall emergency
communications capability level.
Governance questions will pertain to
matters related to leadership, decision
making groups, agreements, funding and
strategic planning. The element of
Standard Operating Procedures will
focus on questions related to
procedures, doctrine, and practices.
Training and Exercises questions will
focus on needs, scope, frequency,
execution and lessons learned. The
Technology element questions are
centered on infrastructure,
functionality, performance, and
redundancy. Usage questions will
address frequency of use, end user
proficiency, and resource capacity. The
last element, Security, will contain

question on identification, protection,

OMB is particularly interested in
comments that:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. 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;
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 through 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.
