Notice of availability of Final PEIS/OEIS for Marine Seismic Research Funded by NSF or Conducted by the USGS. AGENCY: ACTION: PO 00000 Frm 00082 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 38429 The Division of Ocean Sciences in the Directorate for Geosciences (GEO/OCE) has prepared the Final PEIS/OEIS (hereafter Final PEIS) as the lead agency with support from the cooperating agencies, USGS and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The Final PEIS assesses the potential impacts of marine seismic research on the human and natural environment. Under the Proposed Action, a variety of acoustic sources used for research activities funded by NSF or conducted by the USGS would be operated from various research vessels operated by U.S. academic institutions or government agencies. The seismic acoustic sources would include various airgun configurations (particularly strings or arrays with as little as 2 to as many as 36 seismic airguns), as well as low-energy seismic and non-seismic acoustic sources. The Final PEIS examines the potential impacts that may result from marine geophysical research using seismic surveys that are funded by NSF or conducted by the USGS in non-Arctic waters. The Proposed Action is for academic and U.S. government scientists in the U.S., and possible international collaborators, to conduct marine seismic research from research vessels operated by U.S. academic institutions and government agencies. The purpose of the Proposed Action is to fund the investigation of the geology and geophysics of the seafloor by collecting seismic reflection and refraction data that reveal the structure and stratigraphy of the crust and/or overlying sediment below the world’s oceans. NSF has a continuing need to fund seismic surveys that enable scientists to collect data essential to understanding the complex Earth processes beneath the ocean floor. Two action alternatives and the No-Action Alternative were assessed. Please note that responses to all comments received (including all written comments and those provided through testimony at the public hearings) on the Draft PEIS (October 2010) are included in Appendix J of the Final PEIS. The transcripts of public hearings are also included in Appendix I. The Final PEIS reflects the changes made to the Draft PEIS based on the comments received. The Final PEIS is now available on the Internet at: https://www.nsf.gov/geo/oce/envcomp/ in Adobe® portable document format (pdf). The Final PEIS has also been distributed to interested Federal, state, SUMMARY: E:\FR\FM\30JNN1.SGM 30JNN1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    This clearance request pertains to the administration of data 
collection instruments designed to gather information on change, or 
growth, made in various domains of STEM awareness, motivation and 
efficacy, and career pathways, as it relates to NASA's Summer of 
Innovation. These outcomes are not available unless collected via 
surveys to students and teachers. The evaluation is an important 
opportunity to examine the extent to which the SOI-supported activities 
meet their intended objectives.

II. Method of Collection

    Electronic Survey.

III. Data

    Title: NASA Summer of Innovation (SOI) .
    OMB Number: 2700-0150.
    Type of Review: Extension of currently approved collection.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 11620.
    Estimated Time per Response: Voluntary.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 6665.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $67,164.

IV. Requests for Comments

    Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
NASA, including whether the information collected has practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of NASA's estimate of the burden (including 
hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; (3) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including automated collection techniques 
or the use of other forms of information technology.
