DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Amendment 10 to the Coral, Coral Reef
and Live Hard Bottom Habitat FMP

SUMMARY:

The draft amendment currently
addresses a request from the rock
shrimp industry to create a Shrimp
Fishery Access Area (SFAA) along the
eastern boundary of the northern
extension of the Oculina Bank Coral
HAPC to allow rock shrimp trawling
and access to historic rock shrimp
fishing grounds. Vessels fishing for rock
shrimp in the South Atlantic region are
required to carry approved Vessel
Monitoring Systems (VMS) to harvest or
possess rock shrimp. Establishing a
SFAA would allow access to the area at
times where the species is found
slightly west of the existing boundary
while retaining the integrity of the
eastern boundary of the Oculina Bank
Coral HAPC, maintaining the
prohibition on all other bottom tending
gear.
During the public hearings, Council
staff will present an overview of the
amendment and will be available to
answer questions. Members of the
public will have an opportunity to go on
record to record their comments for
consideration by the Council.
Special Accommodations
These hearings are physically
accessible to people with disabilities.
Requests for auxiliary aids should be
directed to the Council office (see
ADDRESSES) 5 days prior to the meeting.
Note: The times and sequence
specified in this agenda are subject to
change.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This is a request for a revision to
information collection 0648–0788,
sponsored by the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
National Center for Coastal Ocean
Science (NCCOS). This collection will
benefit the NOAA, Office of Coastal
Management (OCM), and decisionmakers on the state and local level in
New Hampshire. NOAA will collect
economic data pursuant to the Coastal

E:\FR\FM\26APN1.SGM

26APN1

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 78 / Monday, April 26, 2021 / Notices
Zone Management Act (CZMA) and
Digital Coastal Act.
The New Hampshire Coastal Risk and
Hazards Commission (CRHC) was
established by the State Legislature
through RSA 483–E on July 2, 2013. The
purpose of the Commission, as stated in
the law, is to ‘‘recommend legislation,
rules and other actions to prepare for
projected sea-level rise and other coastal
watershed hazards such as storms,
increased river flooding and storm water
runoff, and the risks such hazards pose
to municipalities and the state assets in
New Hampshire.’’ Further, in carrying
out this charge, the Commission is
specifically directed to ‘‘review National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration and other scientific
agency projections of coastal storm
inundation and flood risk to determine
the appropriate information, data, and
property risks’’ to incorporate into its
recommendations.
In 2016, the CRCH recommended the
development of a ‘‘comprehensive,
integrated New Hampshire Coastal
Shoreline Management Plan (CSMP)
that presents general priorities for
coastal shoreline management, as well
as site-specific and place-based
strategies including, where appropriate,
protection, adaptation, and
abandonment.’’ Following a New
Hampshire Shoreline Management
workshop organized by GBNERR in
2014 and consistent with CRHC
Recommendation BL6, NHCP has
prioritized living shoreline assessment
and implementation in its five-year
strategy to enhance coastal management
(309 Strategy, 2015) and set a longerterm goal to develop a Tidal Shoreline
Management Plan (TSMP) for New
Hampshire.
The National Ocean Service (NOS)
proposes to collect economic data to
document perceived effects of weather
and climate events and adaptation
strategies, to assess probable public
benefits that would be derived from
shoreline treatment options within
coastal New Hampshire, and to establish
a baseline for future monitoring of
NOAA’s success in meeting its
mandates and obligations.
Respondents will be randomly
sampled from households (1) within
New Hampshire, (2) within block
groups in Maine adjacent to the
Piscataqua River, and (3) within block
groups in Massachusetts adjacent to the
Hampton-Seabrook Estuary. Questions
will explore such issues as participation
in recreational activities, familiarity
with weather and climate effects and
adaptation methods, sense of place, and
opinions on shoreline treatment
options. No PII will be collected. The

Jkt 253001

final collection will support the
development of a CSMP for New
Hampshire as well as provide
information to help inform local coastal
zone management and planning.
Upon analysis of the pre-test data and
guidance from experts in survey
methodology, the following changes
were made to enhance understanding,
response rate, and to minimize
respondent burden:
• Question 4: ‘‘suffered damage’’ has
been replaced with ‘‘been damaged’’ to
avoid potential bias an increase data
quality.
• Questions 7a/8a: ‘‘coastal flooding’’
has been replaced with ‘‘flooding’’ to
not exclude riverine flooding.
• Questions 7a/8a, 7b/8b: ‘‘flooding
damage’’ and ‘‘shoreline erosion
damage’’ were replaced with ‘‘damage
from flooding’’ and ‘‘damage from
shoreline erosion’’ to improve
understanding.
• Questions 14h and 14i were
removed based on pre-test results to
reduce burden without decreasing data
quality.
• Questions 16–21 originally asked
respondents to indicate their preference
to six unique policy options, but now
respondents are asked to compare three
sets of unique policy options. Pre-test
results suggested that respondents
would prefer to compare policies rather
than rate them individually and
comparing three sets of policy options
should reduce burden while increasing
data quality.
• Question 22b: This question is now
asked after each policy comparison
instead of once to improve data quality.
• Question 22f: ‘‘a public vote or
referendum’’ was replaced with ‘‘being
considered by the New Hampshire
legislature’’ to convey the same
information, but using region-specific
terminology, which should increase
data quality.
• Question 22: An additional
statement was added to capture
potentially invalid responses due to
‘‘scenario rejection,’’ which should
increase data quality.
• Question 23: The question and
response option phrasings have been
updated to reflect the modified choice
experiment.
• Question 30: The year has been
updated from 2019 to 2020 when asking
about the previous year’s household
income.
• A question has been added to ask
how long the respondent has been a
resident of their current state.
Respondents who have recently moved
within their state may have different
opinions than those who have recently
moved from out-of-state, so this

additional question should increase data
quality.
II. Method of Collection
The data collection will take place
over a five- to nine-month period and
will be comprised of a questionnaire to
be completed by the respondent. The
data will be collected via a combination
of mail and internet survey instrument.

respondents make better choices. There
is a survey at the end asking
participants about risk preferences, age,
gender, income, family income, college
major, and primary language. These
responses will be used to better
understand how each subgroup
performs given each disclosure. Faculty
members at Gettysburg College will run
the experiment in their Experimental
