AGENCY: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Department of Commerce (DOC). 

ACTION: Notice of open public meeting. 

SUMMARY: This notice sets forth the 

proposed schedule and agenda of a 

forthcoming meeting of the Marine and 

Coastal Area-based Management 

Advisory Committee (MCAM). The 

members will discuss and provide 

advice on issues outlined under 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION below. 

DATES: The meeting will be February 1 

and 2, 2024 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

eastern time. 

ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held in 

the Spring Room at the Silver Spring 

Civic Building, 1 Veterans Place, Silver 

Spring, MD 20910. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Lauren Wenzel, Director, NOAA’s 

National Marine Protected Areas Center, 

Lauren.Wenzel@noaa.gov, (240) 533– 

0652; or Heather Sagar, Senior Policy 

Advisor, NOAA Fisheries, 

Heather.Sagar@noaa.gov, (301) 427– 

8019. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As 

required by section 10(a)(2) of the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5 

U.S.C. app, notice is hereby given of a 

meeting of MCAM. The MCAM was 

established in 2022 to advise the Under 

Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and 

Atmosphere on science-based 

approaches to area-based protection, 

conservation, restoration, and 

management in coastal and marine 

areas, including the Great Lakes. The 

charter is located online at https://

oceanservice.noaa.gov/ocean/marinecoastal-fac/. 

I. Matters To Be Considered 

The meeting time and agenda are 

subject to change. The meeting is 

convened to discuss the following 

topics: area-based management in the 

U.S.; the use of NOAA’s science and 

knowledge to guide area-based 

management; NOAA’s restoration 

programs and tools; how NOAA may 

best leverage area-based management 

tools, investments, and authorities; how 

NOAA may foster healthy coastal 

communities through partnerships, jobs, 

and support; the Biden-Harris 

Administration’s America the Beautiful 

initiative, as well as various 

administrative and organizational 

matters. The times and the agenda 

topics described here are subject to 

change. 

II. Public Comment Instructions 

The meeting will be open to public 

participation (check agenda on website 

to confirm time). Written comments 

should be received by the Designated 

Federal Official by January 26, 2024, to 

provide sufficient time for Committee 

review. Written comments received after 

January 26, 2024, will be distributed to 

the Committee, but may not be reviewed 

prior to the meeting date. To submit 

written comments, please email Ellie 

Roberts, ellie.roberts@noaa.gov. 

III. Special Accommodations 

This meeting is physically accessible 

to people with disabilities. Requests for 

sign language interpretation or other 

auxiliary aids should be directed to Ellie 

Roberts at ellie.roberts@noaa.gov, at 

least 5 days prior to the meeting date. 

IV. Exceptional Circumstances 

Pursuant to 41 CFR 102–3.150, the 

notice for this meeting is given fewer 

than 15 calendar days prior to the 

meeting due to exceptional 

circumstances. It is imperative that the 

inaugural meeting of the MCAM 

proceed as scheduled, as Committee 

members have made business plans to 

attend the meeting, there is no other 

meeting date in a reasonable time frame 

that would accommodate schedules 

without causing undue financial 

burden, and there is an immediate 

business and mission need for the FAC 

to convene to establish its workflows 

and anticipated products.

Coastal Area-based Management Advisory

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: Managed Aquifer Recharge 

Planning and Guidance Study; OMB 

Control Number 0710–MARP. 

Type of Request: New. 

Number of Respondents: 1,600. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Annual Responses: 1,600. 

Average Burden per Response: 15 

minutes. 

Annual Burden Hours: 400. 

Needs and Uses: The survey will 

inform the development of a screening 

tool and other resources for USACE 

Districts to identify optimal sites for 

Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR), 

which uses captured surface water to 

replenish groundwater. The Water 

Resources Development Act (WRDA) of 

2016 provides authority for water 

supply conservation projects for drought 

resilience and water supply availability 

studies for water resources development 

(Sections 1116 and 1118, respectively). 

The WRDA of 2016 further requires 

USACE to consider natural and naturebased features, such as MAR, as 

potential solutions to address various 

challenges along with other measures. 

However, USACE has not developed a 

strategic framework for incorporating 

MAR into its operations. Furthermore, 

the Institute for Water Research 

concluded that Districts only engage 

with aquifer recharge in an ‘‘ad hoc’’ 

manner and recommended that USACE 

‘‘upgrade its internal capacity in MAR.’’ 

(IWR 2020). The WRDA of 2022 

instructs USACE to ‘‘conduct a study at 

Federal expense to determine the 

feasibility of carrying out managed 

aquifer recharge projects to address 

drought, water resiliency, and aquifer 

depletion.’’ Following these 

recommendations, the proposed work 

contributes to the development of 

guidance on MAR. This aligns with 

Civil Works strategies for flood risk 

management, restoration of aquatic 

ecosystems in floodplains, and 

developing environmentally sustainable 

technical services that enhance public 

safety and require collaborative 

partnerships. 

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers— 

Engineer Research and Development 

Center has partnered with Arizona State 

University (ASU) through the 

Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Units 

(CESU) Network to complete the 

‘‘Managed Aquifer Recharge Planning 

and Guidance Study’’ and meet the 

above goals and directives. The design 

of an effective screening tool and other 

resources for implementing MAR 

requires information held by key 

stakeholders and decision-makers to 

understand the challenges and needs 

associated with implementing MAR in 

regions around the nation. Developing 

the screening tool and other resources 

will further require identifying 

practitioners and stakeholders 

interested in participating in pilot 

projects. 

The ASU Principal Investigator and 

research team will deploy a survey to 

inform the development of a MAR 

screening tool by gathering information 

about the knowledge, perceptions, and 

attitudes of stakeholders and decisionmakers about MAR. The survey will 

target a purposively developed sample 

of key water and floodplain 

stakeholders and decision-makers from 

across the continental United States.

households; not-for-profit Institutions; 

State, local or Tribal government. 

Frequency: One time. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
