Identification of candidate taxa can assist environmental planning efforts by providing advance notice of potential listings, allowing resource managers to alleviate threats and, thereby, possibly remove the need to list taxa as endangered or threatened. Even if we subsequently list this candidate species, the early notice provided here could result in fewer restrictions on activities by prompting candidate conservation measures to alleviate threats to this species. We also announce the availability of the candidate and listing priority assignment form for this candidate species. This document describes the status and threats that we evaluated to determine that Gunnison sage grouse warrants consideration for listing, and to assign a listing priority to this species.

The PSAF imputes the costs that would have been incurred and profits that would have been earned had the Federal Reserve Banks' priced services been provided by a private firm.

(OMB No. 0925-0454 expires 3/31/01) Need and Use of Information Collection: A case-control study will examine the relationship between exposure to benezene and the risk of lymphohematopoietic malignancies and related disorders and lung cancer in Chinese workers. Cases and controls will be selected from participants in a recent cohort study of benzene-exposed workers in China. The data will be used by the NCI to examine risk among workers exposed to low levels of benzene, and to characterize the dose and time-specific relationship between benzene exposure and disease risk. Frequency of Response: One-time study. Affected Public: Individuals or households. Type of Respondents: Workers.

In compliance with the requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, for opportunity for public comment on proposed data collection projects, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will publish periodic summaries of proposed projects to be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. Proposed Collection: Title: Case-Control Study of Cancer and Related Disorders Among Benzene-Exposed Workers in China. Type of Information Collection Request: Extension. (OMB No. 0925-0454 expires 3/31/01) Need and Use of Information Collection: A case-control study will examine the relationship between exposure to benezene and the risk of lymphohematopoietic malignancies and related disorders and lung cancer in Chinese workers. Cases and controls will be selected from participants in a recent cohort study of benzene-exposed workers in China. The data will be used by the NCI to examine risk among workers exposed to low levels of benzene, and to characterize the dose and time-specific relationship between benzene exposure and disease risk. Frequency of Response: One-time study. Affected Public: Individuals or households. Type of Respondents: Workers. The annual reporting burden is as follows: Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,545; Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: One; Average Burden Hours per Response: 0.75; and Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours Requested: 386. There are no Capital Costs, Operating Costs, and/or Maintenance Costs to report. Request for Comments: Written comments and/or suggestions from the public and affected agencies are invited on one or more of the following points: (1) Whether the proposed collection or information is necessary for the proper performance of the function of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) 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) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) will submit to the Office of Management and Budget an emergency request for review of an expiring information collection. OPM Form 1644, Child Care Provider Information: Child Care Tuition Assistance Program for Federal Employees, is used to verify that child care providers are licensed and/or regulated by local and/or State authorities. Agencies need to know that child care providers to whom they make disbursements in the form of tuition assistance subsidies are licensed and/or regulated by local and/or State authorities. Pub. L. 106-58, passed by Congress on September 29, 1999, permits Federal agencies to use appropriated funds to help their lower income employees with their costs for child care. It is up to the agencies to decide on whether to implement this law. This is a new law and the extent to which it will be implemented, including the number of providers that will be involved, cannot be easily predicted. We estimate approximately 5000 OPM 1644 forms will be completed annually. The form will take approximately 10 minutes to complete by each provider. The annual estimated burden is 835 hours. Comments are particularly invited on:

Comments on this proposal should be received on or before January 8, 2001.
