                DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
                National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
                Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
                 The Department of Commerce will submit 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: NOAA Teacher at Sea Application.
                 OMB Control Number: 0648-0283.
                 Form Number(s): NOAA Form 57-10-01.
                 Type of Request: Regular submission (revision and extension of a
                currently approved information collection).
                 Number of Respondents: 375.
                 Average Hours per Response: Application: 1 hr. 15 min;
                Recommendations: 15 minutes; NOAA Health Services Questionnaire and
                Tuberculosis Screening Document: 45 minutes; Follow-up Report: 2 hours.
                 Burden Hours: 781.
                 Needs and Uses: Consistent with the support for research and
                education under the National Marine Sanctuaries Act (16 U.S.C. 32 Sec.
                1440) and other coastal and marine protection legislation, NOAA
                provides educators an opportunity to gain first-hand experience with
                field research activities through the Teacher at Sea Program. Through
                this program, educators spend up to 3 weeks at sea on a NOAA research
                vessel, participating in an ongoing research project with NOAA
                scientists.
                 The application solicits information from interested educators, and
                participants in the program are selected following review of their
                application. The application includes two recommendation forms: One
                from the applicant's Administrator and one from a colleague. The NOAA
                Health Services Questionnaire (NHSQ) and Tuberculosis Screening
                Document (TSD) is a requirement of anyone going to sea and must be
                completed by teachers who are selected for the program. Once an
                educator is selected and participates on a cruise, s/he writes a report
                detailing the events of the cruise and his/her ideas for classroom
                activities based on what was learned while at sea. These materials are
                then made available to other educators so they may benefit from the
                experience, without actually going to sea. NOAA does not collect
                [[Page 50024]]
                information from this universe of respondents for any other purpose.
                 The revisions to this collection included updating the
                miscellaneous costs and correcting the time to complete the NOAA Health
                Services Questionnaire and Tuberculosis Screening Document to more
                accurately reflect the correct burden.
                 Affected Public: Individuals or households.
                 Frequency: Annually.
                 Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
                 This information collection request may be viewed at reginfo.gov.
                Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce collections
                currently under review by OMB.
                 Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information
                collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice
                to [email protected] or fax to (202) 395-5806.
