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 4, 

2022, 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: Coastal Zone Management 

Program Administration. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0119. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Review: Regular submission 

(revision and extension of a current 

information collection). 

Number of Respondents: 34. 

Average Hours per Response: 

Performance Reports, 72 hours; 

assessment and strategy documents, 260 

hours; Section 306A questionnaire and 

documentation, 25 hours; amendments 

and routine program changes, 15 hours; 

CNP documentation, 240 hours; CZMA 

Performance Management System, 25 

hours. 

Total Annual Burden Hours: 8,916. 

Needs and Uses: This request is for 

revision and extension of a currently 

approved information collection. 

In 1972, in response to intense 

pressure on United States (U.S.) coastal 

resources, and because of the 

importance of U.S. coastal areas, the 

U.S. Congress passed the Coastal Zone 

Management Act of 1972 (CZMA), 16 

U.S.C. 1451 et. seq. The CZMA 

authorized a federal program to 

encourage coastal states and territories 

to develop comprehensive coastal 

management programs. The CZMA has 

been reauthorized on several occasions, 

most recently with the enactment of the 

Coastal Zone Protection Act of 1996 

(CZMA as amended). The program is 

administered by the Secretary of 

Commerce, who in turn has delegated 

this responsibility to the National 

Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration’s (NOAA) National 

Ocean Services (NOS). 

The coastal zone management grants 

provide funds to states and territories to: 

implement federally-approved coastal 

management programs; complete 

information for the Coastal Zone 

Management Program (CZMP) 

Performance Management System; 

develop multi-year program assessments 

and strategies to enhance their programs 

within priority areas under Section 309 

of the CZMA; submit documentation as 

described in the CZMA Section 306A 

for specific construction, acquisition, 

and educational projects; submit 

requests to update their federallyapproved programs through 

amendments or program changes; and 

develop and submit state coastal 

nonpoint pollution control programs 

(CNP) as required under Section 6217 of 

the Coastal Zone Act Reauthorization 

Amendments. 

Revisions: The CZM performance 

report guidance will undergo minor 

updates that will ensure consistency 

with NOAA/NOS grants requirements as 

well as CZMA strategic priorities. The 

revised CZM performance measure 

guidance will provide clarification for 

reporting on competitive and multi-year 

awards, as well as additional guidance 

on financial reporting requirements. The 

revised Coastal Zone Management Act 

Program Change Procedures revisions 

provide a more efficient program change 

process for states. 

The CZMA Section 306A guidance 

will also likely undergo minor updates 

to address several technical issues that 

arose from the 2018 guidance update as 

well as clarify several minor policy 

issues. However, NOAA does not 

anticipate any changes to the record 

keeping requirements or time estimates 

for collecting the necessary 

documentation. 

Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal 

government. 

Frequency: On occasion, depending 

on the collection instrument. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

Obtain or Retain Benefits. 

Legal Authority: Coastal Zone 

Management Act (16 U.S.C. 1451, et 

seq.).
