SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the PRA, we provide the
general public and other Federal agencies with an opportunity to
comment on proposed, revised, and continuing collections of
information. This helps us assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize the public's reporting burden. It
also helps the public understand our information collection
requirements and provide the requested data in the desired format.
A Federal Register notice with a 60-day public comment period
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on
June 22, 2022 (87 FR 37356). No comments were received in response to
this notice.
We are again soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is
described below. We are especially interested in public comment
addressing the following issues: (1) is the collection necessary to the
proper functions of the USGS; (2) will this information be processed
and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the USGS enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how might the USGS minimize the
burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use
of information technology.
Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your address, phone number, email
address, or other personally identifiable information (PII) in your
comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including your
PII--may be made publicly available at any time. While you may ask us
in your comment to withhold your PII from public review, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
Abstract: The USGS proposes to collect general demographic
information about public users who download products from USGS user
interfaces. This information helps address Congressional, OMB, and DOI
inquiries regarding common data uses and affiliations, along with other
questions used to justify maintaining the free distribution of USGS
land remote sensing data. The information collected in the database
includes the names, affiliations, addresses, email addresses, and
telephone numbers of individuals. The information is gathered to
facilitate the reporting of demographic data for use of USGS
applications. Demographic data is also used to make decisions on future
functional requirements within the system.
The information is stored on an internal encrypted database. In
some cases, contact information is required in order to notify the
customer regarding data availability. Email information is also
utilized for two-factor authentication. The registration system does
not derive new data and does not create new data through aggregation.
PII is not used as search criteria. Access to the information is
governed by the least privileged access methodology. Authorized
individuals with specifically granted access to the Privacy Act data
can retrieve only by account number or order number Personal data is
encrypted while stored in the database. Contact ID is generated when
account is created.

OMB Control Number: 1028-0119.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Federal Agencies, state, tribal, and
non-government individuals who have requested USGS products from USGS
distribution applications are covered in

respondents on an annual basis.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: Approximately 335,000

The authority for this action is the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.).
John M. Hahn,
Acting USGS EROS Center Director.
