Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 177 / Friday, September 12, 2014 / Notices I. Abstract The information collection will be done by trained and vetted personnel to record information about habitats on coastal beaches and the environment surrounding them. It will collect geographic location information, date and time of observation, site identification information, photographic images, and includes a simple biogeomorphic landscape classification of geomorphologic and vegetation characteristics. Federal and non-federal partners are the targeted users. PII will not be collected. The data collected will be used as input into research models of habitat utilization by beach-dependent species. Model outputs will be used to understand habitat availability and utilization in the future as the coast evolves in response to climate and sealevel change. This information can be used to inform land and species management decisions. The USGS office leading the program is the Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center, in collaboration with the USGS Center for Integrated Data Analytics, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES II.
