DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

 
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: Knowledge, Attitudes, and Perceptions of Management 
Strategies and Regulations in the Florida Keys National Marine 
Sanctuary.
    Form Number(s): None.
    OMB Approval Number: None.
    Type of Request: Regular submission.
    Burden Hours: 490.
    Number of Respondents: 245.
    Average Hours Per Response: 2.
    Needs and Uses: This is a ten-year replication of the Knowledge, 
Attitudes, and Perceptions of the management strategies and regulations 
of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) for three user 
groups; commercial fishermen, dive shop owners/operators, and members 
of local environmental groups. The original study was done in 1995-96 
and was adopted as providing baselines for the Socioeconomic Research 
and Monitoring Program for the FKNMS. Since 1995-96 much has happened, 
so the study will also provide new baselines for new management 
strategies and regulations. The most important management strategies 
and regulations assessed in both the baseline and replication are those 
related to the special zones created in the FKNMS, especially the no-
take areas. The information is important to support the ``adaptive 
management'' process in the FKNMS and to support education and outreach 
efforts.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations; 
individuals or households.
    Frequency: One time only.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker, (202) 395-3897.
    Copies of the above information collection proposal can be obtained 
by calling or writing Diana Hynek, Departmental Paperwork Clearance 
Officer, (202) 482-0266, Department of Commerce, Room 6625, 14th and

collection should be sent
