an additional 30 days for public

Title: Coral Reef Conservation
Program.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0448.

Type of Request: Regular (Revision
and extension of current information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 65.
Average Hours per Response:
Matching funds waiver request: 2 hours;
Reviewer Comments: 3 hours; SemiAnnual Progress Reports: 10 hours.

Needs and Uses: This request is for

The Coral Reef Conservation Act of
2000 (16 U.S.C. 6401 et seq.) was
enacted on December 14, 2000, to
preserve, sustain and restore the
condition of coral reef ecosystems; to
promote the wise management and
sustainable use of coral reef ecosystems
to benefit local communities and the
Nation; to develop sound scientific
information on the condition of coral
reef ecosystems and the threats to such
ecosystems; to assist in the preservation
of coral reefs by supporting
conservation programs, including
projects that involve affected local
communities and non-governmental
organizations; to provide financial
resources for those programs and
projects; and to establish a formal
mechanism for the collecting and
allocating of monetary donations from
the private sector to be used for coral
reef conservation projects. Under
section 6403 of the Act, the Secretary,
through the NOAA Administrator
(Administrator) and subject to the
availability of funds, is authorized to
provide matching grants of financial
assistance for coral reef conservation
projects. Section 408(c) of the Act
authorizes at least $8,000,000 annually
for financial assistance projects under
the Program.
Collection activities for this program
are outlined below and include: 1.
Applicant creation and submission of
requests for waivers of the non-Federal
matching funds requirement; 2. Review
of project proposals by Federal Agencies
and non-Federal entities with
jurisdiction or management authority
over coral reef ecosystems in the area
where the project is to be conducted;
and 3. Revision of performance
reporting methods to include a standard
program-specific template and tracking
report.

As per section 6403(b) of the Act,
NOAA will require that Federal funds
for any coral conservation financial
assistance project may not exceed 50
percent of the total cost. However, the
Administrator may waive all or part of
the matching requirement if the
Administrator determines that no
reasonable means are available through
which an applicant can meet the
matching requirement and the probable
benefit of the project outweighs the
public interest in the matching
requirement. The suitability for a waiver
is determined after the applicant has
submitted a written request with the
application package and provided the
proper justification.
As per section 6403(f) of the Act,
NOAA will review eligible coral reef
conservation proposals using an
external governmental review and
merit-based peer review. As part of this
review, NOAA will request and
consider written comments on the
proposal from each Federal agency, state
government, or other government
jurisdiction, including the relevant
regional Fishery Management Councils
established under the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et
seq.), or any National Marine Sanctuary,
with jurisdiction or management
authority over coral reef ecosystems in
the area where the project is to be
conducted. Pursuant to this requirement
of the Act, NOAA will apply the
following standard in requesting
comments: (A) Proposals for projects in
state or territorial waters, including
Federal marine protected areas in such
waters (e.g., National Marine
Sanctuaries), will be submitted to that
state or territorial government’s
designated U.S. Coral Reef Task Force
point of contact for comment; (B)
proposals for projects in Federal waters
will be submitted to the relevant Fishery
Management Council for comment; (C)
proposals for projects which require
Federal permits will be submitted to the
Federal agency which issued the permit
for comment; (D) proposals for projects
in Federal marine protected areas
managed by Federal agencies (e.g.,
National Wildlife Refuges, National
Parks, National Marine Sanctuaries, etc.)
will be submitted to the respective
Federal management authority for
comment; and (E) NOAA will seek
comments from other government
entities, authorities, and/or
jurisdictions, including international
entities for projects proposed outside of
U.S. waters, as necessary based on the
nature and scope of the proposed
project.

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 123 / Wednesday, June 30, 2021 / Notices
As per 2 CFR part 200.329, all
recipients of non-construction federal
financial assistance awards are required
to provide performance (technical)
reports to the agency at intervals no less
frequently than annually and no more
frequently than quarterly in order for
the agency to properly monitor the
award and meet oversight
responsibilities. The awarding agency
must use OMB-approved common forms
for this purpose or seek permission for
program-specific forms that will collect
the required data elements. The Coral
Reef Conservation Program seeks OMB
approval to revise this information
collection to require use of a programspecific form for semi-annual reporting
and tracking specific indicators. These
indicators align with the new Coral Reef
Conservation Program Strategic Plan
(2018; https://www.coris.noaa.gov/
activities/strategic_plan2018) and will
be used to track national progress
toward these strategic goals through
2040. The program-specific form for
semi-annual reporting will be a revised
version of what is currently in use for
NOAA’s Marine Debris Program and
will standardize reporting across
projects.
The number of respondents,
responses, and burden hours have been
corrected from the previous submission.
The previous submission included
federal employees and contractors
working on behalf of NOAA as part of
the burden for the collection. This
burden has been removed and is instead
added to the cost to the federal
government.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; Not-for-profit
institutions; State or Local Government;
Federal government.
Frequency: Semi Annual to Annual.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.
Legal Authority: Coral Reef
Conservation Act of 2000 (16 U.S.C.
