SUMMARY:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: National Cooperative Geologic
Mapping Program (NCGMP–EDMAP
and STATEMAP).
OMB Control Number: 1028–0088.
Abstract: EDMAP is the educational
component of the NCGMP that is
intended to train the next generation of
geologic mappers. The NCGMP allocates
funds to colleges and universities in the
United States and Puerto Rico through
an annual competitive cooperative
agreement process. Every federal dollar
that is awarded is matched with
university funds. Geology professors,
who are skilled in geologic mapping,
request EDMAP funding to support
undergraduate and graduate students at
PO 00000
Frm 00086
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

their college or university in a one-year
mentored geologic mapping project that
focuses on a specific geographic area.
Each fall, the program announcement is
posted to the Grants.gov Web site and
respondents are required to submit
applications (comprising of Standard
Form 424, 424A, 424B, a Negotiated
Rate Agreement, a Support letter from
State Geologist or USGS Project Chief,
an EDMAP Proposal Summary Sheet,
the Proposal, and Budget Sheets) using
Grants.gov.
Since 1996, more than $5 million
from the NCGMP have supported
geologic mapping efforts of more than
1,000 students working with more than
244 professors at 148 universities in 44
states, the District of Columbia, and
Puerto Rico. Funds for graduate projects
are limited to $17,500 and
undergraduate project funds limited to
$10,000. These funds are used to cover
field expenses and student salaries, but
not faculty salaries. The authority for
the program is listed in the National
Geologic Mapping Act (Pub. L. 106–
148).
We will protect information from
respondents considered proprietary
under the Freedom of Information Act
(5 U.S.C. 552) and it’s implementing
regulations (43 CFR Part 2), and under
regulations at 30 CFR 250.197, ‘‘Data
and information to be made available to
the public or for limited inspection.’’
Responses are voluntary. No questions
of a ‘‘sensitive’’ nature are asked.
Frequency of Collection: Annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary
(necessary to receive funding).
Estimated Number and Description of
Respondents: Approximately 50
University/College Professors or faculty
advisors annually.
Annual Burden Hours: 1,640 hours.
Estimated Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Hour’’ Burden: We
expect to receive approximately 50
applications each year which takes each
applicant approximately 20 hours to
complete, totaling 1,000 hours. This
includes the time for project conception
and development, proposal writing and
reviewing, and submitting a project
narrative through Grants.gov. We expect
to issue 40 grants per year. The grant
recipients are also required to submit a
final technical report which takes each
grant recipient approximately 16 hours
to complete, totaling 640 hours.
Estimated Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Non-Hour Cost’’: We
have not identified any ‘‘non-hour cost’’
burdens associated with this collection
of information.
Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an
agency may not conduct or sponsor and
