Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 43 / Monday, March 8, 2021 / Notices
On June 15, 2006, President George
W. Bush established the
Papaha¯naumokua¯kea Marine National
Monument (PMNM) by Presidential
Proclamation 8031 under the authority
of the American Antiquities Act, 16 CFR
431, to ensure the comprehensive,
strong, and lasting protection of the
coral reef ecosystems and related
resources of the Northwestern Hawaiian
Islands (NWHI). At a time when ocean
resources around the world are in major
decline, the designation of PMNM
enabled nearly 140,000 square miles of
U.S. land and waters of the region to
receive the highest form of
environmental protection in the country
and created one of the largest marine
conservation areas in the world.
As part of PMNM’s mission to
characterize its natural resources,
PMNM conducts annual coral reef
monitoring expeditions to the NWHI.
Additionally, as part of PMNM’s
education mission, PMNM is committed
to providing educational opportunities
for students and educators. In order to
accomplish these two missions, PMNM
has partnered with the University of
Hawaii to offer research internships.
Each year, a limited number of research
internships will be awarded to
outstanding undergraduate students in
the marine sciences at the University of
Hawaii. These internships consist of
training students in SCUBA surveys of
coral reef fauna, a research expedition to
PMNM aboard a NOAA or contract ship,
and the development of an independent
research project with data from the
expedition. Due to the fact that space is
very limited for these internships, only
a small number of internships can be
offered each year. This request collects
information from internship applicants
in order to allow PMNM staff to select
candidates which are best suited for its
research internships.
The collection of information will
consist of an electronic application
package, which will be solicited
annually from undergraduate students
applying for the internship. The
application package will include (1) an
application form with information on
academic background and professional
experiences, (2) reference forms by two
educational or professional references,
and (3) a support letter from one
academic professor or advisor.
All gathered information would be
used only by staff of PMNM for the
purpose of selecting interns, and will
not be shared with any other party.
None of the information collected will
be disseminated to the public.
