Administration’s (MARAD) intention to
request the Office of Management and
Budget’s (OMB) approval for a new
information collection related to the
availability of mariners.
DATES: Comments should be submitted
on or before June 15, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title of
Collection: MARAD Maritime Operator
Survey Concerning Mariner
Availability.
Type of Request: New Collection.
OMB Control Number: 2133—New.
Form Numbers: MA–1048.
Expiration Date of Approval: Three
years from date of approval by the
Office of Management and Budget.
Summary of Collection of
Information: Part of the stated statutory

to successfully meet this mandate,
MARAD must determine whether a

current or projected shortage of
mariners exists and if there is an
operational or business impact on the
merchant marine. MARAD believe that
a brief preliminary survey is necessary
at this time because it has received an
abundance of anecdotal information
indicating that there is a serious existing
and projected mariner shortage in
different market sectors. If the
preliminary survey indicates that there
is a projected shortage that appears to be
more than short-term, MARAD will
follow-up with a more detailed survey
to analyze the shortage and ascertain the
best means to address it.
Need and Use of the Information: The
new data collection will rely on a
written survey and telephone follow-up.
The survey will request the respondents
to provide information such as: (1)
Future plans to hire mariners; (2) past
difficulty in hiring mariners; (3)
expectations of future difficulty in
hiring mariners; (4) impact on business
operations and plans; and (5)
suggestions for solutions.
Description of Respondents: The
target population for the survey will be
approximately 100 vessel operating
companies representing different sectors
of the U.S. maritime industry.
Annual Responses: 100.
Annual Burden: 33.34 hours.
Comments: Comments should refer to
the docket number that appears at the
top of this document. Written comments
may be submitted to the Docket Clerk,
U.S. DOT Dockets, Room PL–401, 400
Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC

utility, accuracy of the burden
estimates, ways to minimize this
burden, and ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected. All
