as the safety of their passengers.
Significant emphasis should be placed
on offering multiple subjects that afford
the participants professional
development opportunities and
educational enhancement. Subjects
should focus on, but not be limited to:
PFD wear, safety and security issues,
propeller injury prevention, the dangers
of carbon monoxide, boater education,
vessel safety, outreach and awareness
efforts, as well as boating under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
Point of Contact: Ms. Jo Calkin, 202–
372–1065.
3. Federal/State Cooperative
Partnering Efforts. The Coast Guard
seeks a grantee to provide programs to
measurably enhance uniformity and
reciprocity in State boating safety laws/
regulations and other state boating
safety efforts. The grantee would
provide a forum to encourage such
uniformity and reciprocity among
jurisdictions, and closer cooperation
and assistance in developing,
administering, and enforcing State laws
and regulations pertaining to boating
safety. The grantee would further
provide a forum to encourage sufficient
patrol and other activities to ensure
adequate enforcement of state boating
safety laws and regulations, provision of
an adequate U.S. Coast Guard (USCG)
recognized State boating safety
education program, enhanced
maintenance of USCG approved vessel
numbering system and enhanced
implementation of a USCG approved
marine casualty reporting system. Point
of Contact: Ms. Audrey Pickup, 202–
372–1063.
4. Develop and Conduct Boating
Accident Investigation Seminars. The
Coast Guard seeks a grantee to develop,
provide instructional material, and
conduct training courses nationwide for
boating accident investigators, including
four courses at the U.S. Coast Guard’s
Maritime Law Enforcement Academy in
Charleston, South Carolina. Point of
Contact: Mr. Rick Gipe, 202–372–1074.
5. National Estimate of Personal
Flotation Devices (PFDs) Wear Rate. The
Coast Guard seeks a grantee to provide
reliable and valid national estimates of
personal flotation device (PFD or
lifejacket) wear by recreational boaters.
Wear rates of PFDs should be based on
actual observations taken from a
representative sample of boaters across
a range of water venues that include
lakes, rivers, and bays. It is essential
that observation methods remain as
close as possible to those used in
previous years so the number of boats,
types of boats, length of boats, operation
and activity of boats, as well as the age
and gender of the boaters observed

remain consistent. Using the design of
the National PFD Wear Rate Study as a
base, a supplemental observational
study is solicited to determine if PFD
wear rates are higher in an area after the
roll-out of the annual Safe Boating
Campaign. The grantee shall conduct
observations in areas around the
country that have relatively high boating
activity in the summer and therefore
may be expected to have a reasonable
level of activity to make conclusions
about changes in wear rates more stable.
Observation data for 2007 will be
collected for inclusion in the baseline
measure. In the summer of 2008, the
post-campaign measurement will be
conducted. Point of Contact: Mr. Bruce
Schmidt, 202–372–1059.
6. Voluntary Standards Development
Support. The Coast Guard seeks a
grantee to carry out a program to
encourage active participation by
members of the public and other
qualified persons in the development of
technically sound voluntary safety
standards for boats and associated
equipment. Point of Contact: Mr. Po
Chang, 202–372–1075.
7. PFD Wear Rate Strategy for Anglers.
The Coast Guard seeks a grantee to
develop and implement a national
outreach and awareness strategy
designed to raise the level of boating
safety consciousness among anglers.
This year-round strategic effort must
support the organizational objectives of
the National Recreational Boating Safety
Program as well as have the capacity to
be implemented into the Coast Guard
national outreach initiatives. The major
focus will be to specifically target the
behavior of anglers while boating with
a significant emphasis on their
responsibility as boat operators to wear
a lifejacket/PFD as well as ensure that
all passengers do the same. Point of
Contact: Ms. Jo Calkin, 202–372–1065.
We encourage proposals addressing
other boating safety concerns.
Potential grantees should focus on
partnership, e.g., exploring other
sources, linkages, in-kind contributions,
cost sharing, and partnering with other
organizations or corporations. The
primary goal of the National
Recreational Boating Safety Program is
to reduce fatalities to specific levels for
each upcoming year. With your
application, we encourage you to list
and describe the tools you will use to
measure your grant’s performance
toward achieving this goal or toward
achieving a specific objective that will
result in the achievement of this goal.
For some examples of tools, we invite
you to explore this CDC Web site: https://

Survey.
Type of Request: New collection.
OMB Control Number: Not yet
assigned.
Form(s): NA.
Affected Public: Visitors to the TSA
Web site; travelers at airports who
volunteer for focus groups.
Abstract: In order to provide a useful
public Web site, TSA seeks to
administer two data collections, ‘‘Web
site Focus Groups’’ and ‘‘Web site
Online Survey,’’ to obtain feedback
concerning the usability, content, focus
and user satisfaction of TSA’s Web site.
TSA will use the data obtained through
these collection methods to deliver
effective and engaging information to
meet customers’ needs and
continuously improve TSA’s Web site
usability. TSA intends to conduct 15
Web site focus groups annually, each
with a target of 10 total participants and
an estimate of a 1 hour burden per
respondent. TSA estimates a maximum
total annual burden of 150 hours (10
participant hours per focus group
session times 15 focus group sessions
equals 150 hours total). TSA also
intends to conduct voluntary Web site
surveys to collect data for improved
content and usability, which will be
available via the TSA Web site (https://
www.tsa.gov). Surveys will comprise an
approximate five-minute burden per
respondent and an aggregate burden of

estimated 400 online surveys
voluntarily completed per year (400
surveys times 5 minutes per survey
equals 2000 minutes total, which is then

Abstract: In order to provide a useful public Web site, TSA seeks

session times 15 focus group sessions equals 150 hours total). TSA also
intends to conduct voluntary Web site surveys to collect data for
improved content and usability, which will be available via the TSA Web
site (https://www.tsa.gov). Surveys will comprise an approximate five-
minute burden per respondent and an aggregate burden of 34 hours per
year, based on an estimated 400 online surveys voluntarily completed
per year (400 surveys times 5 minutes per survey equals 2000 minutes
