DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

National Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) for clearance the 

following proposal for collection of 

information under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35). 

Agency: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). 

Title: Socioeconomics of Ocean 

Guardian Schools—An Office of the 

National Marine Sanctuaries 

Educational Program. 

OMB Control Number: 0648-xxxx. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Request: Regular (request for 

a new information collection). 

Number of Respondents: 2,583. 

Average Hours Per Response: 20 

minutes. 

Burden Hours: 861. 

Needs and Uses: This request is for a 

new information collection to provide 

benefit throughout the sanctuary system 

and specifically our sites that work with 

Ocean Guardian Schools. The National 

Ocean Service (NOS) proposes to collect 

information from parents and teachers 

about the attitudes and preferences and 

economic value they receive from being 

involved with an Ocean Guardian 

school. 

Up-to-date socioeconomic data is 

needed to support the further 

development and improvement of 

Ocean Guardian Schools. These schools 

receive funding from the NOAA Office 

of Education and the Office of National 

Marine Sanctuaries. Schools may apply 

for funding up to five years. A number 

of schools have continued their Ocean 

Guardian School projects after the five 

years. From 2010–2015, the total 

funding received by 71 schools was 

$544,315. 

Although the costs and sources of 

funding are known, there is limited 

information known about the economic 

value participants place on this program 

and the economic value created by these 

schools and their many activities. 

Currently, there is no information 

available that provides estimates of the 

value of education programs like Ocean 

Guardian to parents and teachers. Ocean 

Guardian Schools receive funding to 

develop projects to help protect the 

ocean in the future and promote ocean 

conservation and stewardship. Projects 

include recycling, beach clean-up days, 

installing rain barrels, installing wildlife 

structures, composting, and energy 

reduction. 

The types of data targeted for this 

collection are: attitudes and preferences 

towards the projects and student 

involvement, importance of/satisfaction 

with the program and attributes of the 

program, extent of reach (are parents 

aware of their student’s involvement 

and are they too learning about ocean 

stewardship), level of teacher, student, 

parent and administrative involvement, 

and teachers’ and parents’ willingness 

to pay. The primary focus for the survey 

will be to gather data on parents’ and 

teachers’ willingness to pay for this 

program. Specifically, researchers will 

collect data to determine the economic 

value teachers, administrators and 

parents place on this program. The 

information collected will help to 

inform Ocean Guardian Schools about 

areas for improvement and the value 

that their programs create for the 

community. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households. 

Frequency: One time. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. 

This information collection request 

may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow 

the instructions to view Department of 

Commerce collections currently under 

review by OMB. 

Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to OIRA_Submission@

omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806.

COMMITTEE FOR PURCHASE FROM 

PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR 

SEVERELY DISABLED 

Procurement List Additions and 

Deletions 

AGENCY: Committee for Purchase From 

People Who Are Blind or Severely 

Disabled. 

ACTION: Additions to and deletions from 

the procurement list. 

SUMMARY: This action adds products and 

a service to the Procurement List that 

will be furnished by nonprofit agencies 

employing persons who are blind or 

have other severe disabilities, and 

deletes products from the Procurement 

List previously furnished by such 

agencies. 

DATES: Effective Date: 3/13/2016. 

ADDRESSES: Committee for Purchase 

From People Who Are Blind or Severely 

Disabled, 1401 S. Clark Street, Suite 

715, Arlington, Virginia, 22202–4149. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Barry S. Lineback, Telephone: (703) 

603–7740, Fax: (703) 603–0655, or email 

CMTEFedReg@AbilityOne.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Additions 

On May 8, 2015 (80 FR 26548–26549) 

and November 16, 2015 (80 FR 70761– 

70762), the Committee for Purchase 

From People Who Are Blind or Severely 

Disabled published notices of proposed 

additions to the Procurement List. 

After consideration of the material 

presented to it concerning capability of 

qualified nonprofit agencies to provide 

the products and service and impact of 

the additions on the current or most 

recent contractors, the Committee has 

determined that the products and 

service listed below are suitable for 

procurement by the Federal Government 

under 41 U.S.C. 8501–8506 and 41 CFR 

51–2.4. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification 

I certify that the following action will 

not have a significant impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

The major factors considered for this 

certification were: 

1. The action will not result in any 

additional reporting, recordkeeping or 

other compliance requirements for small 

entities other than the small 

organizations that will furnish the 

products and service to the Government. 

2. The action will result in 

authorizing small entities to furnish the 

products and service to the Government. 

3. There are no known regulatory 

alternatives which would accomplish 

the objectives of the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501–8506) in 

connection with the products and 

service proposed for addition to the 

Procurement List. 

End of Certification 

Accordingly, the following products 

and service are added to the 

Procurement List:

The Committee for Purchase From 

People Who Are Blind or Severely 

Disabled (Committee) operates pursuant 

to statutory and regulatory 

requirements. Committee regulations 

state for a commodity or service to be 

suitable for addition to the Procurement 

List, each of the following criteria must 

be satisfied: The addition to the 

Procurement List must demonstrate a 

potential to generate employment of 

people who are blind or have other 

severe disabilities; the nonprofit agency 

proposing to provide the product or 

service to the Federal Government must 

be qualified to participate in the 

AbilityOne program as defined in 

separate Committee regulations; the 

nonprofit agency must prove itself 

capable to deliver the product or service 

at the quality standard and delivery 

schedule required by the Government; 

and the Committee reviews the level of 

impact on the current contractor for the 

commodity or service. 

Federal Prison Industries (FPI) 

submitted a comment objecting to the 

proposed addition of the U.S. Army 

Combat Uniform Coat to the 

Procurement List. FPI asserts in its 

comments that, for items already listed 

on FPI’s Schedule of Products like the 

proposed U.S. Army Combat Uniform 

Coat, a designated central nonprofit 

agency of the AbilityOne program must 

seek a waiver of FPI’s purchase priority 

before requesting to add the same 

product to the Committee’s Procurement 

List pursuant to 41 CFR 51–3.3. 

Normally, FPI products have a purchase 

priority over AbilityOne products, as 

stated in FAR subparts 8.002, 8.603 and 

8.704. 

However, 10 U.S.C. 2410n and 

DFARS subpart 208.602–70 provide 

that, if FPI’s share for the particular 

product is greater than five percent of 

the Department of Defense (DOD) 

market, then DOD must use competitive 

and fair opportunity procedures in order 

to purchase additional quantities from 

FPI, permitting FPI to participate in 

such competitive process which 

establishes that FPI no longer has a
