DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE


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: StormReady, TsunamiReady and StormReady/TsunamiReady 
Application Forms.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0419.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular submission.
    Burden Hours: 240.
    Number of Respondents: 120.
    Average Hours per Response: 2.
    Needs and Uses: StormReady and TsunamiReady are voluntary programs 
offered as a means of providing guidance and incentive to officials 
interested in improving their respective hazardous weather operations. 
The StormReady Application Form, TsunamiReady Application Form and 
TsunamiReady/StormReady Application Form will be used by localities to 
apply for initial StormReady or TsunamiReady and StormReady recognition 
and renewal of that recognition every six years. A typical StormReady 
and/or TsunamiReady community would use one of these forms 2 times 
every 10 years. The government will use the information collected to 
determine whether a community has met all of the criteria to receive 
StormReady and/or TsunamiReady recognition. This information collection 
supports Public Law 109-424, the Tsunami Warning and Education Act, 
specifically Section 5, which describes the development of a 
``community-based tsunami hazard mitigation program to improve tsunami 
preparedness of at-risk areas in the United States and its 
territories.''
    Affected Public: State, Local or Tribal Government; business or 
other for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: Every six years.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Nicholas Fraser, (202) 395-5887.
