SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: Programmatic Approval for Office of Youth in the Great Outdoors (YouthGo)-Sponsored Public Surveys. Bureau Form Number: None. OMB Number: 1093–new. Type of Request: New information collection clearance. Description of Need: The Office of Youth in the Great Outdoors needs information on youth employment and education programs provided through the Department of the Interior’s (DOI’s) partnership organizations. The purpose of these information collections is to measure performance of DOI’s youth programs. The proposed information collection covers all of the organizational units and bureaus in DOI running youth employment and education programs through partnership organizations. Partnership organizations will voluntarily obtain information from youth program participants. Since many of the YouthGo information collections ask similar questions to similar populations, YouthGo is requesting clearance from OMB for a program of review for focus groups, interviews, youth program observations, and prepost youth program surveys. The information collections will address three goals to determine DOI youth program effectiveness: (1) Building civic engagement and leadership skills. (2) Enhancing career preparedness and workforce readiness. (3) Developing environmental stewardship and the next generation of conservationists. By conducting focus groups, interviews, identical pre-post youth program surveys, and youth program observations, these programs, run both directly by DOI and through DOI partner organizations, will seek feedback on how well they are meeting the three youth program goals. Any individual information collection may collect information on one, two, or all of the three topic areas above. Information collections, as needed, will be submitted individually to OMB for expedited approval. Through the feedback obtained in these information collections, DOI and its partner organizations will be able to determine whether youth program objectives are being met and document the impacts of program participation.

While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. Automated data collection: Automated data collection methods will be used where possible, and will vary by site/location of the DOI youth partnership program. In the case of prepost surveys, the same data collection method will be used for both the preand post-program surveys. Description of respondents: For any youth program conducting pre-post program surveys, all program participants will be given the opportunity to participate in these identical surveys. Youth program participants range in age from 15 to 30 years (high school through graduate students). Estimated average number of respondents: 7,000 for surveys and 100 for focus groups/interviews. Estimated average burden hours per response: 15 minutes for a pre-survey; 15 minutes for a post-survey; 1 hour for a focus group or interview. Frequency of response: Pre-post surveys will involve two identical surveys, one at the start of the youth program and one at the conclusion of the program. Focus groups and interviews may involve one or more contacts for information collection. Estimated annual reporting burden: We estimate the requested total number of burden hours annually for all of the information collections to be 3,600 burden hours per year. The total annual burden for surveys conducted under the auspices of this program will be 3,500 hours. The total annual burden for focus groups and interviews will be 100 hours.

Chafee Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS) draft revised map, dated September 22, 2009, for four units in Baldwin and Mobile Counties, Alabama, for public review and comment. DATES: To ensure consideration, we must receive your written comments by November 14, 2011. ADDRESSES: Mail or hand-deliver (during normal business hours) comments to Katie Niemi, Coastal Barriers Coordinator, Division of Habitat and Resource Conservation, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 4401 N. Fairfax Drive, Room 860A, Arlington, VA 22203, or send comments by electronic mail (e-mail) to CBRAcomments@fws.gov. For information about how to get copies of the draft map, or where to go to view it, see SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Katie Niemi, Coastal Barriers Coordinator, (703) 358–2161. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: Background Coastal barriers are typically elongated, narrow landforms located at the interface of land and sea. Coastal barriers provide important habitat for fish and wildlife and serve as the mainland’s first line of defense against the impacts of severe storms. With the passage of the Coastal Barrier Resources Act (CBRA) in 1982 (Pub. L. 97–348), Congress recognized that certain actions and programs of the Federal Government have historically subsidized and encouraged PO 00000 Frm 00075 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 56215 development on coastal barriers and have resulted in the loss of valuable natural resources; threats to human life, health, and property; and the expenditure of millions of tax dollars to build structures and infrastructure and then rebuild them again after damaging storms. The CBRA established the CBRS, a defined set of 186 geographic units, encompassing approximately 453,000 acres, of undeveloped lands and associated aquatic habitat along the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coasts. Most new Federal expenditures and financial assistance that have the effect of encouraging development are prohibited within the CBRS. Development can still occur within the CBRS provided that private developers or other non-Federal parties bear the full cost instead of the American taxpayers. The CBRS was expanded by the Coastal Barrier Improvement Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101–591) to include additional areas along the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coasts as well as areas along the Great Lakes, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands coasts. The CBRS is now comprised of 857 units encompassing approximately 3.1 million acres of coastal barrier lands and associated aquatic habitat. These areas are depicted on a series of maps entitled ‘‘John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier Resources System.’’ The CBRS includes two types of units, System units and Otherwise Protected Areas (OPAs). System units are generally comprised of private lands that were relatively undeveloped at the time of their designation within the CBRS. Most new Federal expenditures and financial assistance, including Federal flood insurance, are prohibited within System units. OPAs are generally comprised of lands held by a qualified organization primarily for wildlife refuge, sanctuary, recreational, or natural resource conservation purposes. OPAs are denoted with a ‘‘P’’ at the end of the unit number. The only Federal spending prohibition within OPAs is the prohibition on Federal flood insurance. The Secretary of the Interior (Secretary), through the Service, is responsible for administering the CBRA, which includes maintaining the official maps of the CBRS; consulting with Federal agencies that propose to spend funds within the CBRS; preparing draft maps that update and correct existing maps; and making recommendations to Congress regarding proposed changes to the CBRS. Aside from three minor exceptions, only Congress—through new legislation—can modify the maps of the CBRS to add or remove land. These exceptions include: (1) The CBRA E:\FR\FM\12SEN1.SGM 12SEN1
