The FY 2002 Commerce, Justice, State Appropriations Act directed the Secretary of Commerce to establish a Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program to protect important areas that have significant conservation, recreation, ecological, historical, or aesthetic values, or that are threatened by conversion, and to issue guidelines for this program delineating the criteria for grant awards, (16 U.S.C. 1456d). The guidelines establish procedures for eligible applicants, who choose to participate in the program, to use when developing state conservation plans, proposing or soliciting projects under this program, applying for

The increased estimate for the annual recordkeeping and reporting hours is due to an increase in the projected number of project proposals received each year as more states participate in the competitive program (the estimated number of proposals has increased from 50 to 60). The increased annual estimate of burden hours for the CELCP plans reflects the fact that a number of state plans submitted for review and approval by NOAA require additional revision prior to approval, so the number of revision responses has been increased for the renewal period (previously 22 new plans were expected; for this next 3-year period, we estimate 1 new plan and 27 revisions). In addition, while the number of states that have not yet developed a CELCP plan for NOAA review/approval decreased significantly, the estimate of time needed to develop an initial draft was increased from 35 hours to 120 hours, based on feedback from respondents. NOTE: The recordkeeping/reporting cost increased from $516 to $523: the increased number of proposals and increased postage costs were almost balanced by the increase in electronic submissions. However, in ROCIS, the previous cost is shown as $1,000, as the cost was rounded up when the information collection was migrated to ROCIS.
