Chapter 35). Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Title: Assessing Stakeholder Attitudes and Concerns Toward Ecosystem Management. Form Number(s): None. OMB Approval Number: None. Type of Request: Regular submission. Burden Hours: 3,333. Number of Respondents: 10,000. Average Hours Per Response: 20 minutes. Needs and Uses: The NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service supports an ecosystem approach to fisheries management. However, relatively little information has been collected in a systematic manner concerning stakeholder perceptions of an ecosystem approach to management. An understanding and knowledge of stakeholder preferences for broad-level management objectives, as well as opinions toward the current management system and status of marine resources, would assist the agency in making decisions that maximize the total societal benefits from marine resources. Given the increasing emphasis on ecosystem issues, NOAA Fisheries will conduct a survey of key stakeholders concerning their preferences and perceptions of both current fisheries management and an ecosystem approach to management. The survey is well timed to establish a baseline measure of attitudes toward ecosystem approaches to management and to provide key stakeholders with the opportunity to express their preferences for the types of goals and objectives that should be pursued. Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; Individuals or households; Not-for-profit institutions; Federal government; State, local or tribal government. Frequency: One time only. Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker, (202) 395–3897.

We use these data also independently for internal analytic research and for evaluation of other surveys. In addition, we need these data to correctly control estimates of other characteristics to the proper proportions of age, gender, race, and origin. We use the data from the CPS on household size and composition, age, education, ethnicity, and marital status to compile monthly averages or other aggregates for national and subnational estimates. We use these data in four principal ways: In association with other data, such as monthly labor force or periodic supplement publications; for internal analytic research; for evaluation of other surveys and survey results; and as a general purpose sample and survey.

    The demographic information provides a unique set of data on 
selected characteristics for the civilian noninstitutional population. 
Some of the demographic information we collect is age, marital status, 
gender, Armed Forces status, education, race, origin, and family 
income. We use these data in conjunction with other data, particularly 
the monthly labor force data, as well as periodic supplement data. We 
use these data also independently for internal analytic research and 
for evaluation of other surveys. In addition, we need these data to 
correctly control estimates of other characteristics to the proper 
proportions of age, gender, race, and origin.
    We use the data from the CPS on household size and composition, 
age, education, ethnicity, and marital status to compile monthly 
averages or other aggregates for national and subnational estimates. We 
use these data in four principal ways: In association with other data, 
such as monthly labor force or periodic supplement publications; for 
internal analytic research; for evaluation of other surveys and survey 
results; and as a general purpose sample and survey.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Monthly.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Title 13, United States Code, Section 182.
