SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Abstract:
The U.S. Institute is a federal program
established by Congress to assist parties
in resolving environmental, natural
resource, and public lands conflicts.
The U.S. Institute serves as an impartial,
non-partisan institution, and
accomplishes much of its work by
partnering, contracting with, or referral
to, experienced practitioners. In
addition, the U.S. Institute maintains
the National Roster of Environmental
Dispute Resolution and Consensus
Building Professionals (roster). The
Application for the National Roster of
Environmental Dispute Resolution and
Consensus Building Professionals
(application) compiles data available
from the resumes of environmental
neutrals (mediators, facilitators, etc.)
into a format that is standardized for
efficient and fair eligibility review,
database searches, and retrievals. The
roster, the application and the related
entry criteria, were developed
collaboratively and with the support of
the Environmental Protection Agency. A
professional needs to complete the
application form one time. Once an
application is approved, the roster
member has access to update
information online. The proposed
collection is necessary to support
ongoing maintenance of the roster and
a continuous, open application process.
The application and supplementary
information are available from the U.S.
Institute’s Web site. From https://
www.ecr.gov/Resources/Roster/
Roster.aspx, choose righthand
navigation bar link to: ‘‘Roster
Application: Info and Log In’’.
Burden Statement: Burden for
potentially affected public:
environmental dispute resolution and
consensus building professionals (new
respondents); existing roster members
(for updating).
Proposed Frequency of Response: One
initial, with voluntary updates
approximately once per year.
Annual Number of Respondents: 30
(new response); 125 (update).
Time per Respondent: 2.5 hours (new
response); 15 minutes (update).
Total Annual Hours Burden: 106 (new
response and update combined).
Annual Cost Burden: $3,359 (new
response); $1,399 (update).
Total Annual Cost Burden: $4,758
(new response and update combined);
labor costs exclusively; no capital or
start-up costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There are
no changes in the labor hours in this
ICR compared to the previous ICR. The
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 214001
reduction in cost figures from the
previous ICR are due to use of current
Bureau of Labor Statistics reports for
valuing time (civilian workers category
of ‘‘professionals and related
occupations’’: $44.78 per hour) rather
than estimated contractor rates.
Authority: 20 U.S.C. 5601–5609.
Dated the 24th day of July 2008.
