Yesterday the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
announced that it had rejected the submission of the DHS information collection
request for their Protected Critical Infrastructure Information (PCII) Officer
Self-Assessment Questionnaire. There is no reason given beyond the stock phrase
‘improperly submitted’.
This may have something to do with the problems
I noted with the 30-day ICR notice in the Federal Register.
As I noted in my post about
the 60-day ICR notice this is a potentially important part of the DHS
effort to protect PCII information voluntarily submitted by the private sector.
This assessment of State and local government actions to safeguard PCII shared
to them by the federal government is long overdue in my opinion.
BTW: My other
complaint about this ICR submission has now been dealt with. A copy of the
actual survey document is now
downloadable. Of course, it may be changed by the time NPPD gets around to
re-submitting this ICR.
