Request for Public Comments
We request comment on our analyses,
the proposed authorization, and any
other aspect of this Notice of Proposed
IHA for the proposed harbor
improvement activities. We also request
comment on the potential for renewal of
this proposed IHA as described in the
paragraph below. Please include with
your comments any supporting data or
literature citations to help inform our
final decision on the request for MMPA
authorization.
On a case-by-case basis, NMFS may
issue a second one-year IHA without
additional notice when (1) another year
of identical or nearly identical activities
as described in the Specified Activities
section is planned or (2) the activities
would not be completed by the time the
IHA expires and a second IHA would
allow for completion of the activities
beyond that described in the Dates and
Duration section, provided all of the
following conditions are met:
• A request for renewal is received no
later than 60 days prior to expiration of
the current IHA;
• The request for renewal must
include the following:
(1) An explanation that the activities
to be conducted beyond the initial dates
either are identical to the previously
analyzed activities or include changes
so minor (e.g., reduction in pile size)
that the changes do not affect the
previous analyses, take estimates, or
mitigation and monitoring
requirements; and
(2) A preliminary monitoring report
showing the results of the required
monitoring to date and an explanation
showing that the monitoring results do
not indicate impacts of a scale or nature

not previously analyzed or authorized;
and
• Upon review of the request for
renewal, the status of the affected
species or stocks, and any other
pertinent information, NMFS
determines that there are no more than
minor changes in the activities, the
mitigation and monitoring measures
remain the same and appropriate, and
the original findings remain valid.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:

I. Abstract
The National Ocean Service (NOS)
proposed a new collection in order to
pursue three of the strategic goals of the
NOAA Office of Aquaculture: To
advance understanding of the
interactions of aquaculture and the
environment; to increase the supply of
nutritious, safe, high-quality domestic
seafood; develop and use socioeconomic
and business research to advance
domestic aquaculture. NOS proposes to
estimate the costs associated with
reported Vibrio illnesses, which is a
demand expressed in a number of
industry settings. Washington State
Department of Health expressed desire
for this information in order to more
accurately plan their budgets.
Management agency staff, restaurant
staff, and oyster farm staff will be asked
to help develop a model of what kind
of expenditures accrue during a
response to a reported Vibrio illness and
estimate the value of those
expenditures. The results of the project
will be used to develop a model to

Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 201 / Wednesday, October 17, 2018 / Notices
estimate the full suite of costs of
seafood-borne illness and will provide
an estimate for agency and business
budget planners.

National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration

The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Environmental Compliance
Questionnaire for National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration Notice of
Federal Funding Opportunity
Applicants.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0538.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular (O and
extension of a currently approved
information collection).
Number of Respondents: 736.
Average Hours per Response: 4 hours.
Burden Hours: 1,030.
Needs and Uses: This request is for a
revision and extension of a currently
approved information collection
through the Environmental Compliance
Questionnaire for National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration Federal
Financial Assistance Applicants
(Questionnaire). This Questionnaire is
used by the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to
collect information about proposed
activities for the purpose of complying
with the National Environmental Policy
Act (‘‘NEPA,’’ 42 U.S.C. 4321–4370) and
other environmental compliance
requirements associated with proposed
activities. NEPA requires federal
agencies to complete an environmental
analysis for all major federal actions,
including funding non-federal activities
through federal financial assistance
awards where federal participation in
the funded activity is expected to be
significant. The Questionnaire is used in
conjunction with NOAA Notices of
Funding Opportunity (NOFO).
The NOFO will indicate the specific
questions to which an applicant must
respond in one of three ways: (1) The
applicable questions are inserted
directly into the NOFO with reference to
the OMB Control Number (0648–0538)
for this form; (2) the NOFO will specify
which questions (e.g., 1, 2) an applicant
must answer, with the entire OMBapproved Questionnaire attached to the
NOFO; or (3) applicants to be
recommended for funding will be
required to answer relevant questions

Frm 00042

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

from the Questionnaire. The federal
program officer will determine which
questions are relevant to each specific
applicant. Answers must be provided
before the application can be submitted
for final funding approval.
This Questionnaire has been revised
to (1) remove repetitive questions; (2)
revise specific questions to use plain
language; and (3) add questions that
would be helpful to a wider range of
NOAA programs.
Affected Public: Business or other for
profit organizations; individuals or
households; not-for-profit institutions;
state, local, or tribal government; and
Federal government.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.
This information collection request
may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow
the instructions to view Department of
Commerce collections currently under
review by OMB.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to OIRA_Submission@
omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806.
