SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    Mokupapapa Discovery Center (Center) is an outreach arm of 
Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument that reaches 60,000 people 
each year in Hilo, Hawaii. The Center was created four years ago to 
help raise support for the creation of a National Marine Sanctuary in 
the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. Since that time, the area has been 
proclaimed a Marine National Monument and the main messages we are 
trying to share with the public have changed to better reflect the new 
monument status and the joint management by the three co-trustees of 
the Monument. We therefore are seeking to find out if people visiting 
our Center are getting our new messages by conducting an optional exit 
survey.

II. Method of Collection

    Surveys will be conducted by in-person interview as people exit the 
Center. Interviewers will record responses on paper, and later transfer 
them to an electronic database.

III. Data

    OMB Control Number: None.
    Form Number: None.
    Type of Review: Regular submission.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 250.

IV. Request for Comments

information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the agency, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden 
(including hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; 
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the
