Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for 
collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
    Title: Coastal Impact Assistance Program Review Checklist.
    Form Number(s): None.
    OMB Approval Number: None.
    Type of Request: Emergency submission.
    Burden Hours: 1,875.
    Number of Respondents: 154.
    Average Hours Per Response: 5.
    Needs and Uses: The Coastal Impact Assistance Program (CIAP) 
recognizes that impacts from Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas 
activities fall disproportionately on coastal states and localities 
nearest to where the activities occur. The program provides one-time 
funds to seven states and 147 local governments to conduct a variety of 
related projects, including construction and land acquisition. NOAA 
must review the projects in accordance with the CIAP legislation before 
disbursing funds. To expedite review, NOAA developed the CIAP Project 
Checklist for the construction and land acquisition projects. The 
Checklist, whose use is voluntary, asks applicants to provide project 
information to allow NOAA to determine their eligibility under the CIAP 
as well as eligibility under other relevant statutes (NEPA, etc.).
    Affected Public: State, local, or tribal government.
    Frequency: One-time.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
