SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
The information collection will be
done by trained and vetted personnel to
record information about habitats on
coastal beaches and the environment
surrounding them. It will collect
geographic location information, date
and time of observation, site
identification information, photographic
images, and includes a simple
biogeomorphic landscape classification
of geomorphologic and vegetation
characteristics surrounding nest sites.
Federal and non-federal partners are the
targeted users, Personally Identifiable
Information (PII) will not be collected.
The data collected will be used as
input into research models of habitat
utilization by beach-dependent
species—primarily shorebirds. Model
outputs will be used to understand
habitat availability and utilization in the
future as the coast evolves in response
to climate and sea-level change. This
information can be used to inform land
and species management decisions.
The USGS office leading the program
is the Woods Hole Coastal and Marine
Science Center, in collaboration with
the USGS Center for Integrated Data
Analytics, and the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service.
II. Data
OMB Control Number: 1028—NEW.
Title: Classification of biogeomorphic
attributes and imagery of coastal
habitats.
Type of Request: Approval of new
information collection.
Respondent Obligation: None
(participation is voluntary).
Frequency of Collection: Data will be
collected on an occasional basis,
typically during the active growing and
breeding season (May–September).
Description of Respondents:
Employees of non-governmental
organizations, non-federal cooperators/
collaborators (e.g., academic scientists,
resource managers), State, or local
entities (state agencies, counties, towns).
Estimated Total Number of Annual
Responses: There will be 100 new
training responses with 4000
observation responses.
Estimated Time per Response: We
estimate that training will require 20
minutes per person one time. Recording
observations will take 5 minutes per
person at each site.
