Report
AGENCY: Policy Directorate/Office of

SUMMARY: The Department of Homeland

(ICR) to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review and clearance
in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13,
44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). The Policy
Directorate/Office of Strategic Plans is
soliciting comments concerning the
Quadrennial Homeland Security Report.
The purpose of this notice is to allow
additional 30-days for public comments.
DATES: Comments are encouraged and
will be accepted until July 2, 2009. This
process is conducted in accordance with
5 CFR 1320.10.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget. Comments should be addressed
to OMB Desk Officer, Department of
Homeland Security, Office of Civil
Rights and Civil Liberties, and sent via
electronic mail to
oira_submission@omb.eop.gov or faxed
to (202) 395–6974.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
which:
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;

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 104 / Tuesday, June 2, 2009 / Notices

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.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If
additional information is required
contact: the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS), Policy Directorate/
Office of Strategic Plans, Michael
Galang, (202) 282–9118.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Implementing Recommendations of the
9/11 Commission Act of 2007 mandated
the QHSR and included the following
consultation requirement: ‘‘The
Secretary shall conduct each
quadrennial homeland security review
under this subsection in consultation
with—(A) The heads of other Federal
agencies, including the Attorney
General, the Secretary of State, the
Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of
Health and Human Services, the
Secretary of the Treasury, the Secretary
of Agriculture, and the Director of
National Intelligence; (B) key officials of
the Department; and (C) other relevant
governmental and nongovernmental
entities, including State, local, and
tribal government officials, members of
Congress, private sector representatives,
academics, and other policy experts.’’
The homeland security community is
so vast that physically convening
representative and inclusive study
groups that are also able to work
efficiently and effectively is virtually
impossible. Therefore, DHS will fulfill
QHSR consultation requirements
through a number of mechanisms,
including collaborative web-based
engagement tools. In doing so, DHS
intends to create a true national
dialogue on homeland security. A
national dialogue platform will be
created and hosted to engage homeland
security stakeholders around the
compelling questions, ideas, or concepts
that emerge through the QHSR process.
The dialogue platform is based on the
principle of radical scalability: The
more feedback that is received, the more
clearly sorted participants’ preferences
and priorities become. In a national
dialogue, users can submit their best

Jkt 217001

ideas, refine them in open discussion,
and use simple rating and tagging
features to identify the most popular
ideas and important overarching
themes. The platform can host multiple
simultaneous dialogues, and
dynamically pose new questions, so that
DHS can repeatedly ‘‘pulse’’
participants over a three-month
timeframe.
Ideas, comments, or position papers
will also be solicited at the outset of the
review and accepted via electronic
means. All submitted position papers
will inform the QHSR Study Groups as
they initiate their analyses. All
homeland security stakeholders are
eligible and are invited to provide input.
A letter from Secretary Napolitano will
be sent to each stakeholder association
inviting their input.
