Formal requests for additional plans and instruments must be requested

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed information collection was 
previously published in the Federal Register on April 30, 2025 (Vol. 90 
FR 17941) and allowed 60 days for public comment. One public comment 
was received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 
days for public comment. The National Cancer Institute (NCI), National 
Institutes of Health, may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is 
not required to respond to, an information collection that has been 
extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless 
it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    In compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and 
approval of the information collection listed below.
    Proposed Collection Title Generic Clearance for National Cancer 
Institute (NCI) NCI Resources, Software and Data Sharing Forms, 0925-
0775, Expiration Date 06/30/2025, REINSTATEMENT WITH CHANGE, National 
Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: This is a request for OMB 
to approve the revision of the collection titled ``Generic Clearance 
for National Cancer Institute (NCI) NCI Resources, Software and Data 
Sharing Forms'' for an additional three years of data collection. In 
preparation for dissemination and sharing of data sets, forms 
requesting or applying for access, upload, share, and store data will 
be needed. The purpose of data sharing allows data generated from one 
research study to be used to answer questions beyond the original 
study. It reinforces open scientific inquiry, encourages diversity of 
analysis, supports studies on data collection methods and measurement, 
facilitates the education of new researchers, and enables the 
exploration of topics not envisioned by the initial investigators. 
Biomedical researchers and data scientists can use the NCI cloud 
resources, web interface, and computational workspaces to query, submit 
data, analyze, and visualize data. The forms would be used to register 
a scientist's research data, apply for data storage, and submit a 
request to access and use the data. In addition to these forms, forms 
related to metadata information (i.e., related to the collection of the 
research data; how the data was collected) would be collected for some 
research. This revision is updated to include a newer version of one of 
the Data Submission Request Forms.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden is 5,775 hours.
