DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

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: NOAA Teacher-At-Sea Program. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0283. 

Form Number(s): NA. 

Type of Request: Regular submission. 

Number of Respondents: 375. 

Average Hours Per Response: 

Applications, one hour and 15 minutes; 

follow-up reports, 2 hours; 

recommendations, 15 minutes. 

Burden Hours: 309. 

Needs and Uses: Consistent with the 

support for research and education 

under the National Marine Sanctuaries 

Act (16 U.S.C. 32 1440) and other 

coastal and marine protection 

legislation, NOAA provides educators 

an opportunity to gain first-hand 

experience with field research activities 

through the Teacher-at-Sea Program. 

Through this program, educators spend 

up to 3 weeks at sea on a NOAA 

research vessel, participating in an ongoing research project with NOAA 

scientists. The application solicits 

information from interested educators: 

basic personal information, teaching 

experience and ideas for applying 

program experience in their classrooms, 

plus two recommendations and a NOAA 

Health Services Questionnaire required 

of anyone going to sea. Once educators 

are selected and participate on a cruise, 

they write a report detailing the events 

of the cruise and ideas for classroom 

activities based on what they learned 

while at sea. These materials are then 

made available to other educators so 

they may benefit from the experience, 

without actually going to sea 

themselves. NOAA does not collect 

information from this universe of 

respondents for any other purpose. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households. 

Frequency: Annually and on occasion. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. 

OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker, 

(202) 395–3897.
