SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Comments
On February 5, 2018, the CPSC
published a notice in the Federal
Register announcing the agency’s intent
to seek approval of a new collection of
information on a CPSC Playground
Surfaces Survey that will assess
children’s potential exposure to
playground surfaces, including recycled
tire material or ‘‘tire crumb’’ rubber (83
FR 5073). CPSC received five comments
in response to that notice. Two
commenters did not address the survey
or any issues related to the survey.
These commenters raised concerns
about smart phones and bullying. One
commenter supported the information
collection. Two commenters requested
that the CPSC analyze peer-reviewed
research on the safety of rubber mulch,
apply scientific methodologies to the
research, and identify the constituents
found in recycled rubber at acceptable
risk levels.
The CPSC Playground Surfaces
Survey will apply scientific survey
methodologies to provide national
estimates for the exposure of children
less than 6 years old to playground
surfaces, including, but not limited to,
rubber mulch. The survey will not
assess the safety of rubber mulch or
whether children are at an increased
health risk if they play on rubber mulch.
Rather, the survey will help CPSC gain
a better understanding of children’s
potential exposures to playground
surfaces, including surfaces made from
recycled tires, based on children’s play
behaviors on playgrounds. Potential
exposures include skin contact,
ingestion, and contact through open
wounds.
The CPSC, the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), and the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC)/Agency for Toxic
Substances and Disease Registry
(ATSDR) are working together on the
Federal Research Action Plan on
Recycled Tire Crumb Used on Playing
Fields and Playgrounds (Plan). The four
components of the Plan and the
agencies’ responsibilities are as follows:
• Literature Review/Gap Analysis (EPA
and CDC/ATSDR)
• Tire Crumb Characterization (EPA
and CDC/ATSDR)
• Exposure Characterization Study
(EPA and CDC/ATSDR)
• Playground Surfaces Study (CPSC)
The EPA and the CDC/ATSDR are
charged with assessing the existence, if
any, of potentially hazardous chemicals
or substances in recycled tire materials
on athletic playing fields. Accordingly,

PO 00000

Fmt 4703

EPA and CDC/ATSDR will be
responsible for analyzing and
considering the appropriate scientific
methodologies and peer reviewed
research in any hazard analysis. CPSC is
tasked with research to establish the
level of risk and the extent to which
children may be exposed to potential
hazard(s) related to recycled rubber on
playgrounds. The CPSC Playground
Surfaces Survey will help to inform
CPSC staff’s analysis regarding
children’s potential risk of exposure,
and the extent of the exposure from
playground surfaces derived from
recycled tires, but the survey will not
address any potential hazards.
Accordingly, after consideration of
these comments, CPSC will request
approval of this collection of
information from OMB.
B. Survey
CPSC has contracted with the Fors
Marsh Group, LLC (FMG) to design the
CPSC Playground Surfaces Survey.
SSRS, LLC will program and administer
the survey. Trained interviewers will
dial and conduct the survey using a
computer-assisted telephone interview
(CATI) system, in a secure location, to
which only authorized personnel have
access. Participants will be recruited by
re-contacting respondents of the SSRS
Omnibus. The SSRS Omnibus is a
national, weekly, dual-frame bilingual
RDD telephone survey designed to meet
standards of quality associated with
custom research studies. Each weekly
wave of the SSRS Omnibus consists of
1,000 interviews; 600 interviews are
obtained with respondents on their cell
phones, and approximately 35
interviews are completed in Spanish.
The topic of the surveys varies week to
week. Interviewers will conduct followup re-contacts to target specific
populations on certain issues. SSRS will
use existing data from this sample
source to pre-screen individuals in the
target population (parents of children
who are currently 0–5 years old). These
targeted households will be re-contacted
to administer the proposed survey.
Participants will be re-screened at the
beginning of the call to make sure that
they meet the target criteria and to
identify which subset of questions they
will be given for the survey.
Participation is voluntary and all
responses will be kept confidential.
Each telephone interview will take
approximately 20 minutes to complete.
CPSC estimates the number of
respondents to be 2,200. CPSC estimates
the total annual burden hours for
respondents to be 726 hours. The
monetized hourly cost is $35.28, as
defined by the average total hourly cost

to employers for employee
compensation for employees across all
occupations as of June 2017, reported by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Accordingly, CPSC estimates the total
annual cost burden to all respondents to
be $25,613 (726 hours × $35.28 =
$25,613.28). The total cost to the federal
government for the contract to design
and conduct the survey issued to FMG
under contract number CPSC–D–16–
0002 is $243,593.

Notice of Intended Disinterment

BILLING CODE 5001–03–P

Department of the Army, DoD.
ACTION: Notice of intended disinterment.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

AGENCY:

Army National Military
Cemeteries (ANMC) is honoring the
requests of four families to disinter the
human remains of four Native American
students from the Carlisle Barracks Post
Cemetery, Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The
decedent names are Little Plume (aka
Hayes Vanderbilt Friday), George Ell
(aka George Eli), Herbert Little Hawk
(aka Herbert J. Littlehawk), and Her Pipe
Woman (aka as Dora Brave Bull). These
students died in the 1880s and 1890s
while attending the Carlisle Indian
Industrial School. At the request of the
closest living relative for each decedent,
ANMC will disinter, transfer custody,
transport, and reinter the remains in
private cemeteries chosen by the
families. This disinterment will be
conducted in accordance with Army
Regulation 210–190. This is not a Native
American Graves Protection and
Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) action
because the remains are not part of a
collection as they are interred in graves
that are individually marked at the
Carlisle Barracks Post Cemetery.
DATES: The disinterment is scheduled to
begin on June 14, 2018. Transportation
to and re-interment in private
cemeteries will take place as soon as
practical after the disinterment. If other
living relatives object to the
disinterment of these remains, please
provide written objection to Lieutenant
Colonel Brent Kauffman at the email
address listed below prior to June 7,
2018. Such objections may delay the
disinterment for the decedent in
question.

AGENCY:

Office of the Secretary, DoD.

Notice of a new System of
Records.

ACTION:

The Office of the Secretary of
Defense proposes to add a new system
of records, Spouse Education and Career
Opportunities (SECO) Program, DPR 46
DoD. This program makes available the
resources and tools to help military
spouses with career exploration and
discovery, career education and
training, employment readiness, and
career connections at any point within
the military spouse’s career. The records
allow the spouse to build a profile
including their contact information,
education, and employment data. This
allows the individual to save
information over time in order to easily
prepopulate it into tools such as resume
builders and career and education
planning resources. Records may also be
used as a management tool for statistical
analysis, tracking, reporting, evaluating
program effectiveness and conducting
research.

SUMMARY:

Comments will be accepted on or
before June 20, 2018. This proposed
action will be effective on the date
following the end of the comment
period unless comments are received
which result in a contrary
determination.
