Environmental Management Site-Specific Advisory Board, Paducah, 72298-72299 [E5-6763]

Download as PDF 72298 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 231 / Friday, December 2, 2005 / Notices section 2 of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3506(d) and Office of Management and Budget Circular A–130 regarding information management and dissemination, and is expected to maximize the usefulness of government data. One of the primary reasons for making digital navigational and related data available to the public on the Internet is to promote safe navigation. Today’s digital technologies and widespread access to the Internet provide the means to make this information available to the mariner much sooner, sometimes in near real-time. In addition, more accurate or complete information can be distributed in digital format than could be provided in a printed document. Releasing NOS digital navigation data and information via the Internet is expected to encourage commercial mariners, recreational boaters, and others to use the most accurate and complete digital information available. A secondary benefit of releasing these data on the Internet is to promote the open and efficient exchange of public, scientific, and technical information. The public generally, not just mariners, have an interest in these data. Internet access to NOS navigation and other data should improve its dissemination to ocean engineers, marine scientists, emergency response personnel, managers and policy makers (including those in State and local governments), academia and other institutions, as well as the private sector. Such action may promote scientific advances, sound marine and coastal management, and the commercial development of new and better navigational or other products. NOS is concerned about the use of these data in situations that may compromise marine safety. Consequently, NOS plans to work with mariners, product developers, and others to establish standards for those who wish to incorporate RNCs into navigation products, and to certify compliance with those standards for makers of derived navigational products. NOS is publishing this notice to comply with section 8a(6)(j) of the Office of Management and Budget Circular A–130 which directs agencies to provide adequate notice when initiating, substantially modifying, or terminating significant information dissemination products. Dated: November 22, 2005. Captain Roger L. Parsons, NOAA, Director, Office of Coast Survey, Ocean Services and Coastal Zone Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. [FR Doc.
