Census, 2000 Census data to construct
post-sample weights to correct for oversampling. Both English and Spanish
versions of the questionnaires are used
and interviews are conducted
bilingually to overcome language
barriers.
For the U.S. Coast Guard and NOAA
the information is critical to assessing
the recreational boating community’s
knowledge and use of available
products and services that promote safe
navigation, which are important
missions of both agencies. The
Government Performance Results Act of
1993 (GPRA) requires that public input
be considered when the Forest Service
Strategic Plan is revised. Not collecting
the data will hinder the ability of the
Forest Service to comply with the
requirements of GPRA. The Bureau of
Land Management (BLM) is presently
revising its overall mission and strategic
goals for which it requires public input,
but the BLM has no overarching
national-level data on the public
knowledge and awareness of (and
management references for) BLM lands.
The EPA is concerned that in most
benefit estimations, the recreation value
of a water resource is assumed to be its
‘‘use’’ value. Unfortunately, when
estimating the benefits of regulatory
water quality changes, the regulatory
deadlines EPA faces often do not leave
enough time to collect the appropriate
data to do original studies specific to the
water resources in question. Because of
this, EPA is generally forced to rely on
benefit transfer methods to value
resources. The NSRE offers a cost
effective way to collect a nationwide
freshwater recreation revealed
preference data set that could help
address this problem. EPA intends to
use the collected data as a readily
available resource that will enable EPA
and others to estimate original
recreation demand models in support of
proposed regulations and in the
evaluation of other government
proposed projects. The issues facing
many federal agencies are current and
need to be addressed. Because
environmental and social conditions are
changing rapidly, old information will
no longer suffice as the basis for
decision-making. Timing is also an issue
as the NSRE is only conducted every
five years.

Comment is invited on: (1) Whether
this collection of information is
necessary for the stated purposes and
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical or
scientific utility; (2) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated, electronic, mechanical, or
other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.
All comments received in response to
this notice, including names and
