Six species of shellfish are harvested
in the area, including soft-shell clams,
surf clams, blue mussels, razor clams,
oysters, and ocean quahogs. In 2007 and
2008, two million pounds of shellfish
were harvested in Greater Essex with a
value of $2.5 million for the
communities of Gloucester, Essex, and
Ipswich.
The coastal area along the Upper
North Shore of Massachusetts is
important for the tourism and recreation
industries of the region, including
Salisbury Beach State Reservation,
Sandy Point State Reservation, Halibut
Point State Park, Maudslay State Park,
and more than 25 marinas or boat yards
are adjacent to the proposed NDA. This
area is a popular destination for boaters
due to its natural environmental
diversity and would benefit from a No
Discharge Area.

contract vendor as a matter of vendor
policy. SamKnows, Inc. maintains a
series of administrative, technical and
physical safeguards to protect against
the transmission of personally
identifying information. At point of
registrations, individuals will be given
full disclosure, highlighting what
information will be collected, and
importantly, what information will not
be collected.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Yes. See Privacy Act Impact Assessment
above.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
submitted this information collection to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) on April 2, 2010 under the
emergency processing provisions of 5
CFR 1320.13. The Commission obtained
OMB approval on 4/30/2010.
Emergency OMB approvals are only
granted for six months. Therefore the
Commission is now seeking the full
three year clearance for this information
collection.
There is no change in the
Commission’ estimated burden. There is
no change in the reporting
requirements.
The Commission’s Office of Strategic
Policy and Planning Analysis and the
Consumer and Intergovernmental
Affairs Bureau plan to conduct a
hardware–based test and analysis of
11,000 consumer broadband
connections to examine the performance
of services across a number of
parameters. This survey is crucial to
comparing what consumers know – and
need to know – about the speeds and
performance, and terms and conditions
of broadband and related services to
services purchased.
The Commission has contracted with
SamKnows, Inc. to measure the speeds
and performance of a representative,
cost–effective, statistically relevant
sample of US fixed broadband
households across geographies,
technologies and providers. This
measurement will occur on an opt–in,
voluntary basis. This representative
sample will be used to create a baseline
level of performance and measurements
for the FCC. The third party
measurement contractor will deploy
testing devices to begin measurement,
and these results will be then used to
inform measurement standards for
performance of broadband services, in
support of the FCC–led National
Broadband Plan.
