For the 2020–21 in-water work
season, the Navy requested issuance of
LOAs for work planned at NBK
Manchester and Zelatched Point. The
work planned for NBK Manchester was
delayed and will now occur during the
2021–22 work season. The Navy
submitted a monitoring report for work
conducted at Zelatched Point, which is
available online at:
www.fisheries.noaa.gov/action/
incidental-take-authorization-us-navymarine-structure-maintenance-and-pilereplacement-wa.
Authorization
We have issued two LOAs to the Navy
authorizing the take of marine mammals
incidental to maintenance construction
activities, as described above. Take of
marine mammals will be minimized
through the implementation of the
following planned mitigation measures:
(1) Required monitoring of the
construction areas to detect the presence
of marine mammals before beginning
construction activities; (2) shutdown of
construction activities under certain
circumstances to avoid injury of marine
mammals; and (3) soft start for impact
pile driving to allow marine mammals
the opportunity to leave the area prior
to beginning impact pile driving at full
power. Additionally, the rule includes
an adaptive management component
that allows for timely modification of
mitigation or monitoring measures
based on new information, when
appropriate. The Navy will submit
reports as required.
Based on these findings and the
information discussed in the preamble
to the final rule, the activities described
under these LOAs will have a negligible
impact on marine mammal stocks and
will not have an unmitigable adverse
impact on the availability of the affected
marine mammal stock for subsistence
uses.

Agency Information Collection
Activities; Submission to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
Review and Approval; Comment
Request; NOAA Customer Surveys
The Department of Commerce will
submit the following information
collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication
of this notice. We invite the general
public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed, and continuing
information collections, which helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. Public
comments were previously requested
via the Federal Register on March 2,
2021 (86 FR 12179), during a 60-day
comment period. This notice allows for
an additional 30 days for public
comments.
Agency: National Oceanic &
Atmospheric Administration,
Commerce.
Title: NOAA Customer Surveys.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0342.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission
[Revision and extension of a current
information collection.].
Number of Respondents: 65,860
(197,580 for 3-year period).
Average Hours per Response:
Response time varies from 5 minutes for
most web surveys to two hours for focus
groups or interviews.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 9,298
(27,894 for 3-year period).
Needs and Uses: This request is for a
revision and extension of a currently
approved generic information
collection.
This collection follows the guidelines
contained in the OMB Resource Manual
for Customer Surveys. In accordance
with Executive Order 12862, the
National Performance Review, and good
management practices, National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) offices seek
approval to continue to gather customer
feedback on services and/or products
which can be used in planning for
service/product modification and
prioritization. Under this generic
clearance, individual offices would use
approved questionnaires and develop
new questionnaires, as needed, by
selecting subsets of the approved set of

collection questions and tailoring those
specific questions to be meaningful for
their particular programs. Surveys
currently typically include IT and
website satisfaction surveys, Weather
Service product surveys, and National
Marine Sanctuary participation surveys,
among others.
This generic clearance will not be
used to survey any bodies NOAA
regulates unless precautions are taken to
ensure that the respondents believe that
they are not under any risk for not
responding or for the contents of their
responses, e.g., in no survey to such a
population will the names and
addresses of respondents be required.
Two sets of survey questions are used
for generation of program-level
questionnaires. Quantitative questions
seek to obtain numerical ratings from
respondents on their satisfaction with
various aspects of the product or service
they obtained—satisfaction with the
quality of the product, the courtesy of
the staff, the format of and
documentation for data received, and
similar standard types of questions. The
offices using such questions are able to
determine which aspects of their
program need improvement or have
improved. Qualitative questions are
more focused on who is using the
product and service, how it is being
used, and the medium or format in
which the respondent would like to see
data provided.
NOAA seeks to add new questions to
the approved question bank in order to
more accurately reflect information
required by NOAA in order to carry out
its mission. Additionally, the number of
anticipated respondents, responses, and
burden hours have been updated to
more accurately reflect the burden
imposed by this collection.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; Business or other for-profit
organizations; Not-for-profit
institutions; State, Local, or Tribal
government; Federal government;
Farms.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: Executive Order
12862, Circular A–11.
This information collection request
may be viewed at www.reginfo.gov.
Follow the instructions to view the
Department of Commerce collections
currently under review by OMB.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be
submitted within 30 days of the
publication of this notice on the
following website www.reginfo.gov/
