    Abstract: OMB M-21-04 provides guidance for Federal agencies to

of 1974. As required by the Creating Advanced Streamlined Electronic 
Services for Constituents Act of 2019 (``CASES Act''), this guidance 
outlines the responsibilities of agencies for accepting access and 
consent forms provided in a digital format from individuals who are 
properly identity-proofed and authenticated. The request and consent 
forms, hosted at www.usda.gov/privacy-policy/privacy-office, will allow 
individuals to electronically request privacy records from the USDA. 
Information collected in this form will allow the USDA to locate any 
privacy records and submit to the identity-proofed requestor.
    Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this collection of 
information is estimated to average 0.8 hours per response.
    Type of Respondents: Individuals.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 300.

    Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 2.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 100 hours.
    Comments are invited on: (1) whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the agency, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who 
are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, 
mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms 
of information technology. Comments may be sent to U.S. Department of 
Agriculture, Office of the Chief Information Security Officer, 
Information Security Center, Chief Privacy Office. All comments 
received will be available for public inspection during regular 
business hours at the same address.

request for OMB approval. All comments will become a matter of public 
record.
