NATIONAL CORAL REEF MONITORING PROGRAM (NCRMP)
RESIDENT CORAL REEF SURVEY FOR
American Samoa, Puerto Rico, Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), US Virgin Islands, Florida, and Hawai’i
OMB CONTROL NUMBER 0648-0646
Survey administered in (circle one): English or [jurisdictional language option 1] or [jurisdictional language option 2] or [jurisdictional language option 3]
[SCRIPT 1 for in-person data collection]
[jurisdictional greeting], my name is _________________, and I am working on behalf of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NOAA’s National Coral Reef Monitoring Program is conducting surveys with residents of [jurisdiction] to learn how people interact with coral reefs and how perceptions of coral reef conditions in [jurisdiction] } are changing over time. The information collected will be used to help management better serve local communities. Your household was randomly selected to participate in this survey.
A Federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with an information collection subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 unless the information collection has a currently valid OMB Control Number. The approved OMB Control Number for this information collection is 0648-0646. Without this approval, we could not conduct this survey. Public reporting for this information collection is estimated to be approximately 20 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the information collection. All responses to this information collection are voluntary. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this information collection, including suggestions for reducing this burden to Mary Allen at mary.allen@noaa.gov
S1. Just one person is needed to complete this survey. May I please speak to the person 18 or older in your household who has had the most recent birthday? (Note: If selected person is not available, choose the next eligible person available).
The person who answered the door is eligible Continue to SCRIPT 2
New individual comes to the door Re-read SCRIPT 1 with new individual, then proceed to SCRIPT 2
No eligible persons available Proceed with “not available” protocol, thank the current individual, and end survey
The person declines Proceed with NR1
[SCRIPT 2 for in-person data collection]
The survey should take no more than 20 minutes to complete. Your participation is voluntary, but is very important to the success of this study. You may skip any of the questions or stop the survey at any time. All information you provide is confidential. Your name and address will never be identified or associated with the results.
S2. Are you willing to participate in this survey?
Yes (person agreed to be interviewed) Continue to S3
No (person did not agree to be interviewed) Proceed with nonresponse question NR1
S3: Do you live in [jurisdiction] at least three months of the year?
Yes (the person lives here for at least 3 months a year) Start survey
No (the person does not live here for at least 3 months a year) End survey
NR1. Are there any particular reasons why you would prefer not to participate in the survey that
you would be willing to share?
Yes Allow respondent to comment and record reasons in NR2

ATTITUDES TOWARDS CORAL REEF MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES
[SCRIPT] There are many different management strategies for protecting coral reefs in [jurisdiction]. In the next few questions, we are interested in your opinions on some of these strategies.
A Marine Protected Area (MPA) [or jurisdictional word choice] is an area of the ocean [, optional “such as” description,] where particular human activities are restricted [or jurisdictional word choice] to protect living, non-living, cultural, and/or historic resources. Before today, were you aware of existing MPAs [or optional jurisdictional word choice] in [jurisdiction]? {supports ‘awareness of reef regulations’ indicator}
Yes (IF YES, GO TO Q14)
No (IF NO, SKIP TO Q15)
