not submitting the application.
Additionally, the ICF gives NOAA the
opportunity to provide early feedback
and guidance on an application
package, lowering the likelihood of
time-consuming rewrites and edits to an
application before it can be deemed
complete. Therefore, the ICF can save
significant time for industry and private
entities, as well as government time.
The optional Data Availability
Notification (DAN) information includes
contact information and general data
availability information. The DAN may
be submitted electronically through the
NOAA website during the application
process, while an applicant holds a
license, or by any interested party. The
DAN information received is used to
help determine the availability of
unenhanced data from a foreign or
domestic remote sensing system, which
may then be compared to unenhanced
data produced by an applicant’s system
for the purpose of adjusting the
conditions and/or restrictions in a
license. The DAN form ensures that
only required information is submitted,
thereby reducing unnecessary
paperwork and/or follow-up
correspondence.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This is a request for an extension of
an existing information collection.
The National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA)
Office of Education is sponsoring data
collection efforts on its Bay Watershed
Education and Training (B–WET)
program. The NOAA B–WET program is
authorized under 33 U.S.C. 893a(a), the
America COMPETES Act. The
Administrator of the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration is
authorized to conduct, develop,
support, promote, and coordinate formal
and informal educational activities at all
levels to enhance public awareness and
understanding of ocean, coastal, Great
Lakes, and atmospheric science and
stewardship by the general public and
other coastal stakeholders, including
underrepresented groups in ocean and
atmospheric science and policy careers.
B–WET advances NOAA’s mission by
awarding education grants that foster an
environmentally literate citizenry who
have the knowledge, attitudes, and
skills needed to protect watersheds and
related ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes
ecosystems. B–WET currently funds
projects in seven regions (California,
Chesapeake Bay, Great Lakes, Gulf of
Mexico, Hawaii, New England, and the
Pacific Northwest).
To ensure that educational activities
funded by B–WET are of the highest
quality, and maximize federal resources,

B–WET has created an across-region,
internal evaluation system to provide
ongoing monitoring of program
implementation and to identify
opportunities for improved program
outcomes. The evaluation system is
maintained by B–WET staff with
occasional assistance from an outside
contractor. The evaluation system
collects information from B–WET
program-funded project participants.
B–WET awardees of grants or
cooperative agreements, and the
awardees’ teachers who attend
professional development programs
provided by the awardees, are asked to
voluntarily complete online survey
forms to provide data for the evaluation
system. Information collected from
awardees includes program elements
such as program duration, format,
audience, location, support and/or
materials offered, and topics covered.
Information collected from teacher
professional development participants
includes teaching methodologies,
program satisfaction, program coverage,
suggestions for improvement, and
teaching confidence. Information
collected from teachers at the end of the
school year following their participation
in a professional development program
includes time spent teaching topics
covered in the professional
development program, types of
activities used with their students,
teachers’ perceptions of student
learning, and teaching practices
utilized. One individual from each
awardee organization is asked to
complete a survey once per year of the
award, and the teacher participants are
asked to complete one survey at the end
of their professional development
program and another survey at the end
of the following school year. Responses
to the survey questions are aggregated
and analyzed as part of ongoing
evaluation efforts.
Based on a review of annual
evaluation system results, B–WET has
made program improvements by
adjusting its Federal Notice of Funding
Opportunities and program guidelines.
On-going data collection enables NOAA
to monitor program implementation and
outcomes on a regular basis and
supports adaptive management of the
program.
II. Method of Collection
Respondents submit their information
electronically using a survey collection
platform.
III. Data
