Activities; Submission to the Office of

Review and Approval; Comment 

Request; Application Forms for 

Membership on a National Marine 

Sanctuary Advisory Council 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit the following information 

collection request to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

review and clearance in accordance 

with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995, on or after the date of publication 

of this notice. We invite the general 

public and other Federal agencies to 

comment on proposed, and continuing 

information collections, which helps us 

assess the impact of our information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. Public 

comments were previously requested 

via the Federal Register on July 31, 

2024 during a 60-day comment period. 

No comments were received during this 

period. This notice allows for an 

additional 30 days for public comments. 

Agency: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration, 

Commerce. 

Title: Application Forms for 

Membership on a National Marine 

Sanctuary Advisory Council. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0397. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Request: Regular submission 

(revision and extension of a currently 

approved collection). 

Number of Respondents: 900. 

Average Hours per Response: 1.25 

hours. 

Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,125 

hours. 

Needs and Uses: This is a request for 

revision and extension of an approved 

information collection. 

Section 315 of the National Marine 

Sanctuaries Act (NMSA) (16 U.S.C. 

1445a) allows the Secretary of 

Commerce to establish one or more 

advisory councils to advise and make 

recommendations to the Secretary 

regarding the designation and 

management of national marine 

sanctuaries. Executive Order 13178 

(December 4, 2000) similarly established 

a Coral Reef Ecosystem Reserve Council 

pursuant to the NMSA for the 

Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Coral 

Reef Ecosystem Reserve. Councils are 

individually chartered for each site, or 

for the sanctuary system, to meet its 

specific needs. Once an advisory 

council has been chartered, a sanctuary 

superintendent starts a process to 

recruit members for that council by 

providing notice to the public and 

requesting interested parties to apply for 

the available seat(s) (e.g., Research, 

Education) and position(s) (i.e., council 

member or alternate). The information 

obtained through this application 

process will be used to determine the 

qualifications of the applicant for 

membership on the advisory council. 

Two application forms are currently 

associated with this information 

collection: (a) National Marine 

Sanctuary Advisory Council 

Application form; and (b) National 

Marine Sanctuary Advisory Council 

Youth Seat Application form. 

Application form instructions will 

specify requirements imposed upon the 

agency when reviewing applicants as 

potential council members or alternates. 

Questions posed to applicants have 

been reviewed and an additional two 

questions are being added to solicit 

information on eligibility for a potential 

stipend program to decrease financial 

barriers to joining advisory councils. An 

additional section for demographic 

questions is also being added to include 

the newly updated Statistical Policy 

Directive No. 15: Standards for 

Maintaining, Collecting, and Presenting 

Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity 

(SPD 15) and Recommendations on the 

Best Practices for the Collection of 

Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity 

Data on Federal Statistical Surveys, and 

to learn more about our applicants. 

Existing questions may be reordered, 

reworded, and at times, condensed to 

improve the organization of applicant 

responses and, thereby, simplify the 

applicant review process. We do not 

believe that such revisions to the 

application would appreciably change 

the average annual number of 

respondents or the reporting burden for 

the information requirements 

supporting solicitation of new advisory 

council members. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households; business or other for-profit 

organizations; not-for-profit institutions. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. 

Legal Authority: National Marine 

Sanctuaries Act (16 U.S.C. 1445a).

may be viewed at www.reginfo.gov.

information collection should be
