Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:48 Sep 29, 2010
Jkt 220001
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Cook Inlet Beluga Whale
Protection Pretest Economic Survey.
OMB Control Number: None.
Form Number(s): NA.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(request for review of a new information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 298.
Average Hours per Response: Full
survey, 25 minutes. Follow-up
telephone call with short interview, 5
minutes.
Burden Hours: 102.
Needs and Uses: The population of
Cook Inlet beluga whales found in the
Cook Inlet of Alaska is one of five
distinct population segments in United
States (U.S.) waters. It was listed as
endangered under the Endangered
Species Act on October 22, 2008 (73 FR
62919). The public benefits associated
with the results of protection actions on
the Cook Inlet beluga whale, such as
population increases, are primarily the
result of the non-consumptive value
people attribute to such protection (e.g.,
active use values associated with being
able to view beluga whales and passive
use values unrelated to direct human
use). Little is known about these values,
yet such information is needed for
decision makers to more fully
understand the trade-offs involved in
choosing among potential protection
alternatives and to complement other
information available about the costs,
benefits, and impacts of protection
alternatives.
The National Marine Fisheries Service
plans to conduct a pilot survey to test
a survey instrument that will be used to
collect data for measuring the economic
benefits the public receives for
providing additional protection, beyond
current levels, to the Cook Inlet beluga
whale. These preferences are currently
not known, but are needed to assist in
the evaluation of alternative measures to
further protect and recover the species’
population, such as in the evaluation of
critical habitat designations. The pilot
survey consists of conducting a smallscale mail-telephone survey of U.S.
households that will collect information
needed to evaluate the survey
instrument and implementation
procedures.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: One time.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
Department of Commerce (DOC).
ACTION: Draft environmental assessment;
notice of availability; request for public
comment.
AGENCY:
The Gulf of the Farallones
National Marine Sanctuary (GFNMS)
has developed a draft environmental
assessment (EA) pursuant to the
National Environmental Policy Act (42
U.S.C. 4321, et seq.) to analyze the
potential impacts of issuing a research
permit that would allow the attraction
and approach of white sharks in the
sanctuary. The purpose of the proposed
study is to improve our knowledge of
the full migratory cycle of white sharks
by attaching location transmitters to up
to eleven (11) white sharks that
seasonally visit the sanctuary. The EA is
available for download on the web site:
https://farallones.noaa.gov/eco/sharks/
pdf/ea_mcsi_permit2009.pdf.
DATES: Comments on this draft
environmental assessment may be made
on or before October 15, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be
submitted by any of the following
methods:
• Mail: Carliane Johnson, Acting
Permit Coordinator, Gulf of the
Farallones National Marine Sanctuary,
