Information Collection Request
Title: The National Recreational Boating Survey.
OMB Control Number: 1625-0089.
Summary: The mission of the U.S. Coast Guard's National
Recreational Boating Safety (RBS) Program is to minimize the loss of
life, personal injury, property damage, and environmental impact
associated with the use of recreational boats. The National
Recreational Boating Survey information collection enables the Coast
Guard to better identify safety priorities, coordinate and focus
research efforts, and encourage consistency in the information that is
collected as well as methods of analysis that are employed. Working
with our State partners, collecting this type of information from
boaters across the nation is essential in our efforts to implement
effective accident prevention strategies.
Need: The National Recreational Boating Survey is needed as a means
for the Coast Guard to: (1) Collect reliable and consistent data for
use in developing valid safety performance measures, (2) collect
information in regard to the changing demographics of boaters, the
numbers of boats and type of boating activity essential for national
RBS program direction and policy, and (3) better define and measure the
effectiveness of RBS program activities in reducing the number of
boating accidents.
Respondents: Recreational boaters.
Frequency: Every two to three years.
Burden Estimate: The estimated burden remains the same, 11,458
hours a year.
Dated: July 1, 2005.
Nathaniel S. Heiner,
Acting, Assistant Commandant for Command, Control, Communications,
Computers and Information Technology.
