Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 198 / Friday, October 11, 2019 / Notices
Previous Request for Comments
The Coast Guard published a 60-day
notice (84 FR 5459, February 21, 2019)
and a 30-day notice (84 FR 19097, May
3, 2019) requesting comments, as
required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). The
30-day notice elicited two comments
which can be viewed at https://
www.regulations.gov in the docket
USCG–2018–0498. This request
provides a second 30-day comment
period to address the public comments
that we received and to solicit
comments on the changes we made to
the information collection request in
response to the comments.
The first commenter noted that there
is a workgroup developing
recommendations for improving
recreational boating incident reporting
and opening communication between
the Coast Guard and all levels of
enforcement. The commenter noted that
the current form requires the owner of
the vessel to fill out the form and submit
it to the Coast Guard, but there is no
efficient way for the states to require
recreational boat owners who are
unwilling or unable to submit the safety
defect report to the Coast Guard.
The Coast Guard supports allowing
additional entities to report safety
defects, and proposes to change the
name of the report from ‘‘Consumer
Safety Defect Report’’ to ‘‘Recreational
Boat Safety Defect Report’’. The
respondants for this new form will
expand from receiving information from
consumers (boat owners) to receiving
information from any source, including
boat owners, law enforcement, marine
investigators, boat manufacturers, and
the public. We will change the ‘‘who is
reporting’’ section of the form to include
places for names, addresses, and contact
info for a company or agency and add
check boxes for these additional sources
to identify themselves as on the report,
such as owner, manufacturer, law
enforcement officer, investigator, and
other. We will also collect vessel type,
hull material, propulsion type, engine
drive type and fuel using the 33 CFR
173/174 terms for those categories.
The second commenter said that the
reporting form should not have negative
financial impacts on small business,
service providers, or individuals and
that someone should compensate these
entities for their research. The
commenter also noted that associated
equipment can be dangerous to owners
and operators. We agree that defective
equipment is dangerous to vessel
owners and operators. The purpose of
submitting a safety defect report to the
Coast Guard is so that the Coast Guard
can look into the accuracy of the report

and advise manufacturers in repairing
defects in their equipment before they
become catastrophic defects. The Safety
Defect Report is not intended to cause
negative financial impact on those
entities. Safety defect reporting
advances our maritime safety missions
by asking vessel operators, and other
entities, to report any suspected safety
defects to the Coast Guard. The
commenter did not give any suggestions
on how to improve the collection of
information or the form. No changes to
this collection have been made at this
time as a result of the second comment

certain items of associated equipment to
notify owners and remedy: (1) Defects

information:
Title of Information Collection:
OMB Approval Number: 2506–0183.
Type of Request: Extension of
currently approved collection.
Form Number: HUD–40090–3a.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: This
submission is to request an extension of
a currently approved collection for
reporting burden associated with the
Technical Submission phase of the
Continuum of Care (CoC) Program
Application. This submission is limited
to the Technical Submission process
under the CoC Program interim rule, as
authorized by the HEARTH Act.
Applicants who are successful in the
CoC Program Competition are required
to submit more detailed technical
information before grant agreement. The
information to be collected will be used
to ensure that technical requirements
are met prior to the execution of a grant
agreement. The technical requirements
relate to a more extensive description of
the budgets for administration costs,
timelines for project implementation,
match documentation and other project
specific documentation, and
information to support the resolution of
grant conditions. HUD will use this
detailed information to determine if a
project is financially feasible and
whether all proposed activities are
eligible. All information collected is
used to carefully consider conditional
applicants for funding. If HUD collects
less information, or collected it less
frequently, the Department could not
make a final determination concerning
the eligibility of applicants for grant
funds and conditional applicants would
not be eligible to sign grant agreements
and receive funding. To see the
regulations for the CoC Program and
applicable supplementary documents,
visit HUD’s Homeless Resource
Exchange page at https://
www.hudexchange.info/programs/coc/.
The statutory provisions and the
implementing interim rule (also found
at 24 CFR part 587) that govern the
program require the information
provided by the Technical Submission.
