SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the PRA and 5 CFR 

1320.8(d)(1), we provide the general 

public and other Federal agencies with 

an opportunity to comment on new, 

proposed, revised, and continuing 

collections of information. This helps us 

assess the impact of our information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. It also 

helps the public understand our 

information collection requirements and 

provide the requested data in the 

desired format. 

A Federal Register notice with a 60- 

day public comment period soliciting 

comments on this collection of 

information was published on April 20, 

2021. (Federal Register/Vol. 86, No. 74, 

20515). No comments were received. 

As part of our continuing effort to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burdens, we are again soliciting 

comments from the public and other 

Federal agencies on the proposed ICR 

that is described below. We are 

especially interested in public comment 

addressing the following: 

(1) Whether or not the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether or not the 

information will have practical utility; 

(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the 

burden for this collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(4) How might the agency minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond, including through the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of response. 

Comments that you submit in 

response to this notice are a matter of 

public record. Before including your 

address, phone number, email address, 

or other personal identifying 

information in your comment, you 

should be aware that your entire 

comment including your personal 

identifying information may be made 

publicly available at any time. While 

you can ask us in your comment to 

withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so. 

Abstract: The USGS administers the 

National Ground-Water Monitoring 

Network which was developed through 

work with the Federal Advisory 

Committee on Water Information 

(ACWI) and its Subcommittee on 

Ground Water (SOGW). This network is 

required as part of Public Law 111–11, 

Subtitle F-Secure Water: Section 9507, 

42 U.S.C. 10367, ‘‘Water Data 

Enhancement by United States 

Geological Survey.’’ The NGWMN 

consists of an aggregation of wells and 

spring from existing Federal, State, 

Tribal, and local groundwater 

monitoring networks. To support data 

providers for the NGWMN, the USGS 

will be providing funding through 

cooperative agreements to waterresource agencies that collect 

groundwater data. The USGS will be 

soliciting applications for funding that 

will request information from the 

Agency collecting the data. Elements 

will include contact information (phone 

number and email address), and a 

proposal describing their proposed work 

in support of the NGWMN. The 

proposal will describe the groundwater 

networks to be included in the 

NGWMN, the purpose of the networks, 

and the Principal aquifers that are 

monitored. Proposals may include work 

to become a new data provider to the 

NGWMN, support for maintaining 

connections to agency databases, and 

work to enhance NGWMN sites 

(updating metadata, well maintenance, 

well drilling, and support for 

continuous water-level monitoring 

equipment). The proposal would require 

estimates of costs to complete the above 

tasks and a timeline for planned 

completion. The proposal will be 

reviewed by the USGS and the NGWMN 

Program Board who will make funding 

recommendations.
