respondents will take part in the Census
of Problem-Solving Courts 2011. The
average (mean) burden for each
completed survey is almost 1 hour per
respondent. The estimated range of
burden for respondents is between 40
minutes to 2 hours for completion. The
following factors were considered when
creating the burden estimate: the total
number of drug courts in the field, the
total number of mental health courts,
the ability of problem-solving courts (by
type) to access data, and the type of data
capabilities generally found in the field.
Using these criteria, respondents were
categorized into three groups depending
upon whether they had the capacity to
complete only part I or both parts (I&II)
of the survey. Group A respondents will
have the least access to data and
complete only part one of the survey.
Approximately 2,300 respondents will
be in this group. It is estimated that
respondents in group A will take 40
minutes to complete the survey. Group
(B) respondents will complete part one
of the survey and have access to only
limited information necessary for part
two of the survey. Approximately 1,200
respondents will be in this group. This
second group of respondents will take
about 1 hour and 15 minutes to
complete a survey. The third group (C)
of respondents will complete parts one
and two of the survey; they will have
the greatest access to the information
required for part two of the survey.
Approximately 300 respondents will be
in group C. It is estimated it will take
this group about 2 hours to complete the
survey.
6. An Estimate of the Total Public
Burden (in hours) Associated with the
collection: The estimated public burden
associated with this collection is 3,633
hours. Respondents were categorized
into three groups depending upon
whether they had the capacity to
complete only part I or both parts (I &
II) of the survey. Approximately 2,300
respondents will fall into the first group
(A) of respondents, completing only part
one of the survey. It is estimated that
respondents in this group will take 40
minutes to complete a survey for a total
of 1,533 hours. The second group (B) of
respondents will complete part one of
the survey and have access to only
limited amount of information
necessary for part two of the survey. The
approximately 1,200 respondents in this
second group of respondents will take
about 1 hour and 15 minutes to
complete a survey for a total of 1,500
hours. The third group (C) of
respondents will complete parts one
and two of the survey; they will have
the greatest access to the information

required for part two of the survey. It is
estimated it will take the estimated 300
respondents in this group about 2 hours
each to complete a survey for a total of
600 hours. When the burden hours for
each group of respondents are added up,
the CPSC 2011 project sums to 3,633
hours (1,533 + 1,500 + 600 = 3,633).

requirement in the Integrated Coastal
Ocean Observation System Act of 2009
(33 U.S.C. 3601–3610) and is applicable
to all non-federal assets as defined in
the Act, including Regional Information

On 30
March 2009, President Barack Obama
signed into law the Integrated Coastal
and Ocean Observation System Act of
2009. Among the requirements in the
Act is a directive to the IOOC to
‘‘develop contract certification
standards and compliance procedures
for all non-Federal assets, including
regional information coordination
entities, to establish eligibility for
integration into the System and to
ensure compliance with all applicable
standards and protocols established by
the Council, and ensure that regional
observations are integrated into the
System on a sustained basis.’’ The IOOC
chartered two working groups
consisting of subject matter experts on
IOOS data partners and regional entities
to draft recommended certification
criteria. The recommended criteria were
approved by the IOOC on 20 October
2011 and further information on the
specific criteria can be obtained by
contacting the IOOC Support Office as
directed in the section above.
The IOOC is the federal interagency
group established to lead the
interagency planning and coordination
of ocean observing activities including
IOOS, and is represented by federal
agencies, with NOAA identified as the
lead federal agency by for IOOS
implementation and administration.
