DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE


Submission for OMB Review; Proposed Information Collection; 
Comment Request; Limited Access Death Master File Accredited Conformity 
Assessment Body Application for Firewalled Status

    The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of 
information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 
U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Agency: National Technical Information Service (NTIS), Commerce.
    Title: Limited Access Death Master File Accredited Conformity 
Assessment Body Application for Firewalled Status (Firewalled Status 
Application Form).
    OMB Control Number: [0692-XXXX].
    Form Number(s): NTIS FM101.
    Type of Request: New information collection.
    Number of Respondents: NTIS expects to receive approximately 560 
applications and renewals for certification every year for access to 
the Limited Access Death Master File, of which it expects that 
approximately 20% of the required assessments will be provided by 
Accredited Conformity Assessment Bodies that will seek firewalled 
status in a given year. Accordingly, NTIS estimates that it will 
receive approximately 112 Firewalled Status Application Forms.
    Average Hours Per Response: 1 hour.
    Burden Hours: 112 (112 x 1 hour = 112)
    Needs and Uses: NTIS issued a final rule establishing a program 
through which persons may become eligible to obtain access to Death 
Master File (DMF) information about an individual within three years of 
that individual's death. The final rule was promulgated under Section 
203 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, Pub. L. 113-67 (Act). The Act 
prohibits the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) from disclosing DMF 
information during the three-year period following an individual's 
death (Limited Access DMF), unless the person requesting the 
information has been certified to access the Limited Access DMF 
pursuant to certain criteria in a program that the Secretary 
establishes. The Secretary delegated the authority to carry out Section 
203 to the Director of NTIS.
    The final rule requires that, in order to become certified, a 
Person or Certified Person must submit a written attestation from an 
``Accredited Conformity Assessment Body'' (ACAB), as defined in the 
final rule, that such Person has information security systems, 
facilities and procedures in place to protect the security of the 
Limited Access DMF, as required under Section 1110.102(a)(2) of the 
final rule. A Certified Person also must provide a new written 
attestation periodically for renewal of its certification as specified 
in the final rule. The ACAB must be independent of the Person or 
Certified Person seeking certification, unless it is a third party 
conformity assessment body which qualifies for ``firewalled

[[Page 81740]]

status'' pursuant to Section 1110.502 of the final rule.
    The Firewalled Status Application Form collects information that 
NTIS will use to evaluate whether the respondent qualifies for 
``firewalled status'' under the rule, and, therefore, can provide a 
written attestation in lieu of an independent ACAB's attestation. This 
information includes specific requirements of Section 1110.502(b) of 
the final rule, which the respondent ACAB must certify are satisfied, 
and the provision of specific information by the respondent ACAB, such 
as the identity of the Person or Certified Person that would be the 
subject of the attestation and the basis upon which the certifications 
were made.
    Affected Public: ACABs seeking firewalled status under 15 CFR 
1110.502 because they are ``owned, managed or controlled'' by the 
Person or Certified Person for whom they are providing assessment(s) 
and/or audit(s) under the final rule for ``Certification Program for 
Access to the Death Master File.''
    Frequency: Once per attestation.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    This information collection request may be viewed at reginfo.gov. 
Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce collections 
currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to [email protected] or fax to (202) 395-5806.
