{"abstract":"Section 203 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (Act), directed the Secretary of Commerce to establish a certification program under which persons may obtain immediate access to the publicly available Death Master File (DMF). The National Technical Information Service is requesting comments from the public regarding the establishment and implementation of a certification program for access to the DMF. It is expected that information gathered through this RFI will inform NTIS's approach to the development of a certification program, which will be promulgated by NTIS by Notice and Comment Rulemaking. In addition, NTIS will hold a public meeting at which members of the public will be invited to provide comments in person. More information about the public meeting is provided under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.","action":"Request for Information and Advance Notice of Public Meeting.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE","name":"Commerce Department","id":54,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/commerce-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/54","parent_id":null,"slug":"commerce-department"},{"raw_name":"National Technical Information Service","name":"National Technical Information Service","id":372,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/national-technical-information-service","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/372","parent_id":54,"slug":"national-technical-information-service"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2014/03/03/2014-04584.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":1110,"title":15}],"citation":"79 FR 11735","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2014-03-18","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments are due on or before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time March 18, 2014.
