SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    This request is for revision of a currently approved information 
collection.
    NOAA's National Weather Service would like to add a TsunamiReady 
Supporter Application Form to its currently approved collection, which 
includes StormReady, TsunamiReady, StormReady/TsunamiReady, and 
StormReady Supporter application forms. The title would then change to 
``StormReady, TsunamiReady, StormReady/TsunamiReady, StormReady 
Supporter and TsunamiReady Supporter Application Forms''. This new 
application would be used by entities such as businesses and not-for-
profit institutions that may not have the resources necessary to 
fulfill all the eligibility requirements to achieve the full 
TsunamiReady recognition. The form will be used to apply for initial 
TsunamiReady Supporter recognition and renewal of that recognition 
every five years. The federal government will use the

criteria to receive TsunamiReady Supporter recognition.
