ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Army Corps of

preparing a report that will be submitted 

to Congress in 2015. The goals of the 

North Atlantic Coast Comprehensive 

Study authorized under the Disaster 

Relief Appropriations Act, Public Law 

113–2 are to (1) provide risk reduction 

strategies to reduce risk to which 

vulnerable coastal populations are 

subject, and (2) promote coastal resilient 

communities to ensure a sustainable 

and robust coastal landscape system, 

considering future sea level rise and 

climate change scenarios, to reduce risk 

to vulnerable population, property, 

infrastructure and ecosystems. 

DATES: The USACE will accept data and 

literature in response to this request 

until December 31, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: Methods for submission 

include: Email: Send information by 

electronic mail to: NACCS@

Congressional response to the 

devastation in the wake of Hurricane 

Sandy included a mandate to address as 

a regional system the vulnerability of 

populations at risk in the U.S. Army 

Corps of Engineers (USACE) North 

Atlantic Division. The draft analyses of 

the Comprehensive Study will be 

coordinated amongst interagency 

stakeholders in early 2014 and a report 

will be submitted to Congress in 2015. 

The USACE would appreciate 

receiving information from the public to 

facilitate the preparation of the Study. 

The USACE prefers information which 

has been peer reviewed. Interested 

persons may provide scientific analyses, 

studies, and other pertinent scientific 

information, preferably information 

which has undergone scientific peer 

review. The USACE will consider all 

submissions but will give preference to 

all peer reviewed data and literature 

sources. Please understand that not all 

data and sources provided may be 

reflected in the draft analyses socialized 

in early 2014, but the resources will be 

incorporated into the final report.
