A Federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with an information
collection subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 unless the information collection has a currently valid OMB Control Number. The approved OMB
Control Number for this information collection is 0648-0718. Without this approval, we could not conduct this information collection. Public reporting for this information collection
is estimated to be approximately 10 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed,
and completing and reviewing the information collection. All responses to this information collection are required to obtain or retain benefits pursuant to the applicable federal
funding opportunity. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this information collection, including suggestions for reducing this burden to the Coral
Reef Conservation Program at [email protected].
