SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of Emergency Communications
(OEC), formed under Title XVIII of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, 6
U.S.C. 571 et seq., as amended, provides emergency communications-
related technical assistance at no charge to State, regional, local,
and tribal government officials. To receive this technical assistance,
stakeholders must submit a request form identifying their priorities.
In order for OEC to assess the value of the services it provides
through technical assistance, an evaluation form is also requested of
those receiving technical assistance.
OEC uses the Technical Assistance Request Form (DHS Form 9043) to
identify the number and type of technical assistance services needed by
the State, territory, local, and tribal agencies. This information
enables OEC to plan and align resources accordingly. OEC considers each
request based on the priority indicated by the State, as well as the
anticipated impact of the service offering on the implementation of the
Statewide Communication Interoperability Plan (SCIP) and the
applicability to National Emergency Communications Plan (NECP). The
evaluation form (DHS Form 9042) is completed by stakeholders at the
completion of OEC technical assistance services and enables OEC to
assess the quality of technical assistance services provided and, in a
holistic fashion, measure the value of the services. The information
collected through these evaluations is used by OEC for continued
improvement planning.
Approximately 100 percent of request and evaluation forms are
submitted electronically by logging into the portal at https://www.dhs.gov/ictapscip-resources. From the website, users are able to
select the appropriate form, either the Technical Assistance Requests
(DHS Form 9043) and/or the TA Evaluation forms (DHS Form 9042), to
complete as a fillable PDF. Each form is then submitted by email to
either TARequest@hq.dhs.gov or TAevaluations@hq.dhs.gov, respectively.
The changes to the collection since the previous OMB approval
include: Updating the web address, decreasing the estimated number of
responses, decreasing the burden time, and increasing the cost
estimates.
This is a renewal of an information collection.
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.
Title of Collection: Technical Assistance Request and Evaluation.
OMB Control Number: 1670-0023.
Frequency: Annually.
Affected Public: State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial Governments.
Number of Respondents: 175.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 0.25 hours.
Total Burden Hours: 50 hours.
Total Burden Cost (capital/startup): $0.
Total Recordkeeping Burden: $0.
Total Burden Cost (operating/maintaining): $0.
