President Bush established the

Monument by issuing Presidential 

Proclamation 8031 (71 FR 36443, June 

26, 2006) under the authority of the 

Antiquities Act (16 U.S.C. 431). The 

proclamation includes restrictions and

provided by the act. Specifically, the 

proclamation prohibits access to the 

monument except when passing

Individuals wishing to access the 

monument to conduct certain regulated 

activities must first apply for and be 

granted a permit issued by NOAA and

Indirect Cost Rates for the Damage 

Assessment, Remediation, and 

Restoration Program for Fiscal Year 

2012 

AGENCY: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice of Indirect Cost Rates for 

the Damage Assessment, Remediation, 

and Restoration Program for Fiscal Year 

2012. 

SUMMARY: The National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration’s 

(NOAA’s) Damage Assessment, 

Remediation, and Restoration Program 

(DARRP) is announcing new indirect 

cost rates on the recovery of indirect 

costs for its component organizations 

involved in natural resource damage 

assessment and restoration activities for 

fiscal year (FY) 2012. The indirect cost 

rates for this fiscal year and date of 

implementation are provided in this 

notice. More information on these rates 

and the DARRP policy can be found at 

the DARRP Web site at 

www.darrp.noaa.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

LaTonya Burgess at 301–713–4248, ext. 

211, by fax at 301–713–4389, or email 

at LaTonya.Burgess@noaa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

mission of the DARRP is to restore 

natural resource injuries caused by 

releases of hazardous substances or oil 

under the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation, and Liability Act 

(CERCLA) (42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.) and 

the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA) (33 

U.S.C. 2701 et seq.), and to support 

restoration of physical injuries to 

National Marine Sanctuary resources 

under the National Marine Sanctuaries 

Act (NMSA) (16 U.S.C. 1431 et seq.). 

The DARRP consists of three component 

organizations: the Office of Response 

and Restoration (ORR) within the 

National Ocean Service; the Restoration 

Center within the National Marine 

Fisheries Service; and the Office of the 

General Counsel Natural Resources 

Section (GCNRS). The DARRP conducts 

Natural Resource Damage Assessments 

(NRDAs) as a basis for recovering 

damages from responsible parties, and 

uses the funds recovered to restore 

injured natural resources. 

Consistent with federal accounting 

requirements, the DARRP is required to 

account for and report the full costs of 

its programs and activities. Further, the 

DARRP is authorized by law to recover 

reasonable costs of damage assessment 

and restoration activities under 

CERCLA, OPA, and the NMSA. Within 

the constraints of these legal provisions 

and their regulatory applications, the 

DARRP has the discretion to develop 

indirect cost rates for its component 

organizations and formulate policies on 

the recovery of indirect cost rates 

subject to its requirements. 

The DARRP’s Indirect Cost Effort 

In December 1998, the DARRP hired 

the public accounting firm Rubino & 

McGeehin, Chartered (R&M) to: evaluate 

the DARRP cost accounting system and 

allocation practices; recommend the 

appropriate indirect cost allocation 

methodology; and determine the 

indirect cost rates for the three 

organizations that comprise the DARRP. 

A Federal Register notice on R&M’s 

effort, their assessment of the DARRP’s 

cost accounting system and practice, 

and their determination regarding the 

most appropriate indirect cost 

methodology and rates for FYs 1993 

through 1999 was published on 

December 7, 2000 (65 FR 76611). The 

notice and report by R&M can also be 

found on the DARRP Web site at 

www.darrp.noaa.gov. 

R&M continued its assessment of 

DARRP’s indirect cost rate system and 

structure for FYs 2000 and 2001. A 

second federal notice specifying the 

DARRP indirect rates for FYs 2000 and
