Vineyard Wind. On April 16, 2020 

GARFO issued an amended incidental 

take statement associated with the 2013 

Biological Opinion and determined that 

the issuance of the initial IHA was not 

likely to jeopardize the continued 

existence of North Atlantic right, fin, sei 

and sperm whales. On May 12, 2021, 

NMFS GARFO determined that their 

initial consultation remains valid for the 

Renewal IHA and that the Renewal IHA 

provides no new information about the 

effects of the action, nor does it change 

the extent of effects of the action, or any 

other basis to require reinitiation of the 

opinion. 

Renewal 

NMFS has issued a Renewal IHA to 

Vineyard Wind for the take of marine 

mammals incidental to conducting 

marine site characterization survey 

activities off the coast of Massachusetts 

in the areas of the Commercial Lease of 

Submerged Lands for Renewable Energy 

Development on the Outer Continental 

Shelf (OCS–A 0501 and OCS–A 0522) 

and along potential submarine cable 

routes to landfall locations in 

Massachusetts, Rhode Island, 

Connecticut, and New York. This 

Renewal IHA is effective from July 15, 

2021 through June 20, 2022.

The Hydrographic Services Review 

Panel (HSRP) is a Federal Advisory 

Committee established to advise the 

Under Secretary of Commerce for 

Oceans and Atmosphere, the NOAA 

Administrator, on matters related to the 

responsibilities and authorities set forth 

in section 303 of the Hydrographic 

Services Improvement Act of 1998, as 

amended, and such other appropriate 

matters that the Under Secretary refers 

to the Panel for review and advice. 

Matters To Be Considered 

The panel is convening on issues 

relevant to NOAA’s navigation services, 

including offshore wind energy and data 

sharing for ocean mapping and 

technology to address ocean mapping in 

40 meters and shallower. HSRP 

regularly discusses stakeholder use of 

navigation data, products and services, 

and other topics related to hydrographic 

surveys, nautical charting, coastal 

shoreline and ocean mapping, the 

National Spatial Reference System 

(NSRS) modernization efforts, 

navigation services contributions to 

resilience and coastal data and 

information systems to support 

planning for resilience to climate 

change, contributions to the blue 

economy, coastal and ocean modeling, 

PORTS® (Physical Oceanographic RealTime System) sensor enhancements and 

expansion, Precision Marine Navigation, 

Electronic Navigation Charts and the 

sunset of RASTER charts, the scientific 

mapping and technology research 

projects of the cooperative agreements 

between NOAA and partners at the 

University of New Hampshire and the 

University of Southern Florida, and 

other topics. The meeting will include 

an update on the plans to address and 

implement two ocean and coastal 

mapping strategies—the Alaska Coastal 

Mapping Strategy (ACMS) and the 

‘‘Establishing a National Strategy for 

Mapping, Exploring, and Characterizing 

the U.S. EEZ’’ (NOMEC), including the 

Standard Ocean Mapping Protocol 

(SOMP). Navigation services include the 

data, products, and services provided by 

the NOAA programs and activities that 

undertake geodetic observations, gravity 

modeling, coastal and shoreline 

mapping, bathymetric mapping and 

modeling, hydrographic surveying, 

nautical charting, tide and water level 

observations, current observations, 

flooding, resilience, inundation and sea 

level rise, marine and coastal modeling, 

geospatial and LIDAR data, and related 

data and topics. This suite of NOAA 

products and services support safe and 

efficient navigation, resilient coasts and 

communities, and the nationwide 

positioning information infrastructure to 

support America’s climate needs and 

commerce. The Panel will hear about 

the missions and uses of NOAA’s 

navigation services, the value these 

services bring, and what improvements 

could be made. Other matters may be 

considered.

Review and Approval; Comment 

Request; Papaha ̄naumokua ̄kea Marine 

National Monument & University of 

Hawaii Research Internship Program 

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 March 8, 

2021, (86 FR 13340) during a 60-day 

comment period. This notice allows for 

an additional 30 days for public 

comments. 

Agency: National Oceanic & 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

Title: Papaha ̄naumokua ̄kea Marine 

National Monument & University of 

Hawaii Research Internship Program. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0719. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Request: Regular submission, 

extension of a current information 

collection. 

Number of Respondents: 100. 

Average Hours per Response: 

Scholarship application: 1 hour; 

Reference forms: 30 minutes; Support 

Letter: 30 minutes. 

Total Annual Burden Hours: 62.5. 

Needs and Uses: This is a request for 

extension of a currently approved 

information collection. The National 

Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration’s (NOAA) National 

Ocean Service’s Office of National 

Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS) 

Papaha ̄naumokua ̄kea Marine National 

Monument (PMNM) is sponsoring this 

collection. On June 15, 2006, President 

George W. Bush established the 

Papaha ̄naumokua ̄kea Marine National 

Monument (PMNM) by Presidential 

Proclamation 8031 under the authority 

of the American Antiquities Act, 16 CFR 

431, to ensure the comprehensive, 

strong, and lasting protection of the 

coral reef ecosystems and related 

resources of the Northwestern Hawaiian 

Islands (NWHI). At a time when ocean 

resources around the world are in major 

decline, the designation of PMNM 

enabled nearly 140,000 square miles of 

U.S. land and waters of the region to 

receive the highest form of 

environmental protection in the country 

and created one of the largest marine 

conservation areas in the world. As part 

of PMNM’s mission to characterize its 

natural resources, PMNM conducts 

annual coral reef monitoring 

expeditions to the NWHI. Additionally, 

as part of PMNM’s education mission, 

PMNM is committed to providing 

educational opportunities for students 

and educators. In order to accomplish 

these two missions, PMNM has 

partnered with the University of Hawaii 

to offer research internships. Each year, 

a limited number of research 

internships will be awarded to 

outstanding undergraduate students in 

the marine sciences at the University of 

Hawaii. These internships consist of 

training students in SCUBA surveys of 

coral reef fauna, a research expedition to 

PMNM aboard a NOAA or contract ship, 

and the development of an independent 

research project with data from the 

expedition. Due to the fact that space is 

very limited for these internships, only 

a small number of internships can be 

offered each year. This request collects 

information from internship applicants 

in order to allow PMNM staff to select 

candidates which are best suited for its 

research internships. The collection of 

information will consist of an electronic 

application package, which will be 

solicited annually from undergraduate 

students applying for the internship. 

The application package will include (1) 

an application form with information on 

academic background and professional 

experiences, (2) reference forms by two 

educational or professional references, 

and (3) a support letter from one 

academic professor or advisor. All 

gathered information would be used 

only by staff of PMNM for the purpose 

of selecting interns, and will not be 

shared with any other party. None of the 

information collected will be 

disseminated to the public. 

Affected Public: Individuals. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. 

Legal Authority: 

This information collection request 

may be viewed at www.reginfo.gov. 

Follow the instructions to view the 

Department of Commerce collections 

currently under review by OMB. 

Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be 

submitted within 30 days of the 

publication of this notice on the 

following website www.reginfo.gov/ 

public/do/PRAMain. Find this
