NOTICE


Responses to this collection are required of grant recipients to support the Estuary Restoration Act. Collection of estuary habitat restoration project information will be undertaken in order to populate a restoration project database mandated by the Estuary Restoration Act of 2000. The database is intended to provide information to improve restoration methods, provide the basis for required reports to Congress, and track estuary habitat acreage restored. Estuary habitat restoration project information will be submitted by habitat restoration project managers through submission of project information to the NOAA Estuary Habitat Restoration Program manager. Project summaries will be accessible to the public via internet for projects funded by the Estuary Habitat Restoration Program.


Responses to this information collection are required to retain funding provided by the Estuary Restoration Act (ERA) and optional for projects that are not funded through the ERA but meet project requirements set forth in the Minimum Monitoring Data Standards. Confidentiality will not be maintained the information will be available to the public. Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average four hours for new responses and two hours to update existing responses in the database, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspects of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to the NOAA Fisheries Office of Habitat Conservation, Restoration Division, F/HC3, 1315 East West Highway, Silver Spring, MD 20910.


Notwithstanding any other provision of the law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.


The information collected will be reviewed for compliance with the NOAA Section 515 Guidelines established in response to the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act, and certified before dissemination.
