SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: Pursuant
to 15 CFR 921.33(c), a state must revise
the management plan for a research
reserve at least every five years. Changes
to a reserve’s management plan may be
made only after receiving written
approval from NOAA. NOAA approves
changes to management plans via notice
in the Federal Register. On November
02, 2020, NOAA issued a notice in the
Federal Register announcing a thirty-
day public comment period for the
proposed revision of the management
plan for the Lake Superior National
Estuarine Research Reserve (81 FR
69320). On July 1, 2021, NOAA issued
a notice in the Federal Register
announcing a thirty-day public
comment period for the proposed
revision of the management plan for the
Mission-Aransas National Estuarine
Research Reserve (86 FR 35072).
Responses to written and oral comments
received, and an explanation of how
comments were incorporated into the
final versions of the revised
management plans, are available in
appendix B of the Lake Superior plan
and appendix 8 of the Mission-Aransas
plan.
The revised management plans
outline each reserve’s: Strategic goals
and objectives; administrative structure;
programs for conducting research and
monitoring, education, and training;
resource protection, restoration, and
manipulation plans; public access and
visitor use plans; consideration for
future land acquisition; and facility
development to support reserve
operations.
The Lake Superior revised
management plan focuses on changes to
facilities through acquiring permanent
housing for visiting students and
researchers; growing the sectors by
structurally supporting additional staff;
advancing geographic information
systems (GIS) and data management
priorities; and developing a formal
advisory board and strategic
relationships with the private sector in
the region. Since September 2010, the
reserve has acquired permanent
facilities for the reserve’s operations;
hired core sector leads and support staff;
opened a public interpretive center and
classroom; and expanded formal
partnerships in research and education
across the region. The revised
management plan will serve as the
guiding document for the 16,697-acre
research reserve for the next five years.
The Mission-Aransas revised
management plan builds upon past
successes and accomplishments and is
designed to address specific priority
coastal management issues. The priority
issues for research and monitoring
include marine debris, industrial growth
impacts, eDNA, freshwater inflow,
biological monitoring, and sea level rise
and coastal subsidence. For education
and training, priorities to be addressed
include connecting children and nature;
outdoor education programming,
climate change and its effects on coastal
environments; coastal ecology and
habitat diversity; marine debris and its
impacts on the coastal environment; and
stewardship of estuarine and coastal
resources.
Since its inception, this reserve has
engaged in strategic partnerships with
its land managing partners and others
based on mutual interests. These
partnerships are expected to be
maintained or expanded through the
revised management plan including
reserve administration of the Amos
Rehabilitation Keep (ARK), providing
animal rehabilitation services for
species endemic to the estuary. The
reserve is also planning to maintain and
improve reserve facilities including
Fennessey Ranch, the Bay Education
Center, the ARK, and the Patton Marine
Science Education Center.
Neither the Lake Superior or Mission-
Aransas revised management plans
change the total acreage of either
reserve.
NOAA reviewed the environmental
impacts of the Lake Superior and
Mission-Aransas revised management
plans and determined that these actions
are categorically-excluded from further
analysis under the National
Environmental Policy Act, consistent
with NOAA Administrative Order 216–
6.]

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: Title;
Associated Form; and OMB Number:
Project Manager Army Data Analytics
Platforms Climate Survey, OMB Control
Number 0702–RDAP.
Needs and Uses: The PM ARDAP
Climate Survey is seeking feedback from
its civilian, military, and contractor
personnel to assess how they feel about
the organization and their work
environment. The responses will enable
PM ARDAP leadership to assess and
determine where changes are required.
Though the survey is intended to reach
all personnel, this proposed collection
request only covers public respondents
(contractor personnel) as required by the
Paperwork Reduction Act. PM ARDAP
will distribute this Climate Survey using
the MilSuite survey feature, which
enables PM ARDAP to create a custom
survey for organization-wide
distribution with advanced survey
statistics to capture, review, and share
the responses. Respondents will access
and provide their responses to the
collection instrument online. They will
receive a link that takes them directly to
the PM ARDAP Climate Survey in
MilSuite. The PM ARDAP Operations
Team will review the survey responses
and provide data and subsequent
analysis to PM ARDAP leadership. The
results will enable PM ARDAP
leadership to communicate areas for
improvement, actions they plan to take
or have been taken, and if the changes
address the area in need of
improvement with its personnel.
Additionally, since the survey is annual,
PM ARDAP will be able to review and
analyze data year to year to identify
trends.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Annual Burden Hours: 267.5.
Number of Respondents: 535.
