SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This is a request for revision and
extension of a currently approved
information collection. The National
Ocean Service (NOS) on behalf of the
NOAA’s Education Council is revising
and extending a voluntary multiquestion survey used to assess the needs
of educators pertaining to the
development of future NOAA
multimedia products and programs. In
developing multimedia materials that
convey NOAA’s science, service, and
stewardship, the Agency must ensure
that these resources are of the highest
quality and meet the needs of formal
and informal educators across the
United States. To achieve this goal, it is
necessary to conduct surveys
identifying the types of educational
programs and products that are of the
highest interest and greatest need by
formal and informal educators. By
surveying external educators to gather
this information, budget expenditures
will be used optimally to develop
appropriate products and programs
most desired by educators to support
and enhance Ocean and Earth science,

E:\FR\FM\23JYN1.SGM

23JYN1

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 139 / Friday, July 23, 2021 / Notices
in addition to other related STEM
education subjects throughout our
nation. NOAA will use the data to plan,
design, and create multimedia products
and programs.
The proposed revisions would expand
the level of detail in the currently
approved information collection. As a
result of the Covid–19 pandemic,
learning and teaching have changed.
The proposed revisions would expound
upon previously collected data, giving a
better indication of educators’ needs
regarding multimedia products and
programs in their teaching as well as the
educator’s professional development.
II. Method of Collection
The voluntary needs assessment
mechanism will be distributed via email
with a link to a Google form to external
educators subscribed to NOAA
education programs as well as their
partners’ email distribution lists. The
voluntary needs assessment mechanism
will also be distributed in person (paper
and electronically) at education
conferences, workshops, and other
venues hosting educators.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0648–0784.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Review: Regular submission
[revision and extension of a currently
approved collection].
Affected Public: Individuals or
households and business or other forprofit organizations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,200 annually.
Estimated Time per Response: Five
minutes per survey.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 100.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $0.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: Magnuson-Stevens

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

ACTION: Notice of public meeting.
AGENCY:

NMFS announces a combined
public meeting of the 14th Scientific
Advisory Subcommittee (SAS) to the
General Advisory Committee (GAC),
and the 29th GAC to the U.S. Section to
the Inter-American Tropical Tuna
Commission (IATTC). This meeting will
be held virtually on Friday, July 23,
2021, via webinar, and is the second
combined virtual meetings of the SAS
and GAC in 2021. The meeting topics
are described under the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section of this notice.
DATES: The virtual meeting of the SAS
and GAC will be held on Friday, July
23, 2021, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. PDT (or
until business is concluded).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
William Stahnke, West Coast Region,
NMFS, at william.stahnke@noaa.gov, or
at (562) 980–4088.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
timing of U.S. SAS and GAC meetings
is dependent on when IATTC annual
meeting(s) occur. This year, the 98th
Annual Meeting of the IATTC will take
place from August 23–27, 2021. As
such, the combined U.S. SAS and GAC
Meeting will be held before the 98th
IATTC Annual Meeting. It should be
noted that while the 97th
(Extraordinary) IATTC Meeting was
focused solely on tropical tuna (i.e.,
bigeye, yellowfin, skipjack tuna)
measures, the 98th Annual Meeting of
the IATTC will cover additional topics.
In accordance with the Tuna
Conventions Act (16 U.S.C. 951 et seq.),
the U.S. Department of Commerce, in
consultation with the Department of
State (the State Department), appoints a
GAC to the U.S. Section to the IATTC
and a SAS that advises the GAC. The
U.S. Section consists of the four U.S.
Commissioners to the IATTC and
representatives of the State Department,
NOAA, Department of Commerce, other
U.S. Government agencies, and
stakeholders. The GAC advises the U.S.
Section with respect to U.S.
participation in the work of the IATTC,
focusing on the development of U.S.
policies, positions, and negotiating
tactics. The purpose of the SAS is to
advise the GAC on scientific matters.
NMFS West Coast Region staff provide
administrative support for the SAS and
GAC. The meetings of the SAS and GAC
are open to the public, unless in
executive session. The time and manner
of public comment will be at the
discretion of the Chairs for the SAS and
GAC.
For more information and updates on
these upcoming meetings, please visit
the IATTC’s website: https://
www.iattc.org/MeetingsENG.htm.
SAS and GAC Meeting Topics
This meeting will have a reduced
agenda to prepare for the 98th IATTC
Meeting that is expected to focus on
tropical tuna, but will cover other topics
as well.
The meeting agenda will include, but
is not limited to, the following topics:
(1) Relevant scientific information
from the IATTC scientific staff and the
International Scientific Committee for
Tuna and Tuna-Like Species in the
North Pacific Ocean (ISC) for tuna, tunalike species, and other species caught in
association with those fisheries in the
eastern Pacific Ocean;
