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.

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.
