required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C Chapter 35, 
as amended). The Tennessee Valley Authority is soliciting public

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Type of Request: Regular Submission; extension without change, of a 
currently approved collection.
    Title of Information Collection: Reservoir Operations Study (ROS)--
Recreation User Data.
    Frequency of Use: Annually.
    Type of Affected Public: Individual recreation users at public and 
commercial recreation areas and recreation users from private 
waterfront homes.
    Small Business or Organizations Affected: No.
    Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 3000.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 990.
    Estimated Average Burden Hours Per Response: .33 hour.
    Need For and Use of Information: As part of system wide re-
evaluation of TVA reservoirs and tailwaters, TVA conducted a survey of 
recreation use on 13 representative reservoirs and 6 representative 
tailwaters during calendar year 2002. Recreation use estimates were 
made for public use areas, commercial marinas, river outfitters, and 
private home owners. In each case, information was collected on the 
amount of recreation use, length of stay, facility preference, trip 
origin, expenditures and economic impact.
    These data now form the foundation for a TVA reservoir and 
tailwater recreation database. TVA recognizes the value of this 
database and proposes to keep it up-to-date and improving its utility 
by refining the survey design and conducting additional surveys of 
recreational use on representative reservoirs and tailwaters.
