Requests for additional information or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This request is for extension of a
currently approved information
collection. The 1990 reauthorization of
the Coastal Zone Management Act
(CZMA) authorized an awards program
to ‘‘implement a program to promote
excellence in coastal zone management
by identifying and acknowledging
outstanding accomplishments in the
field.’’ As authorized in Section 314 of
the CZMA, the Walter B. Jones
Memorial Awards recognize three
categories of excellence: Coastal
Steward of the Year, Excellence in Local
Government, and Excellence in Coastal
and Marine Graduate Study. The CZMA
authorizes NOAA to conduct public
ceremonies to acknowledge such
awards, which allows NOAA to fund
invitational travel and purchase awards
for the Jones Awards.
In conjunction with the Walter B.
Jones Memorial Awards, NOAA
instituted several additional categories
of awards, to recognize additional
contributions to ocean and coastal
resource management, including
Volunteer of the Year, Nongovernmental
Organization of the Year, Excellence in
Promoting Cultural and Ethnic Diversity
(in honor of Secretary Ronald Brown),
Excellence in Business Leadership, and
the Susan Snow Cotter Award for
Excellence in Ocean and Coastal
Resource (NOAA re-named this award
in honor of Susan Snow Cotter in 2007).
As part of conducting the awards
program, NOAA will distribute a ‘‘Call
for Nominations’’ to representatives
from Federal, state, local and
nongovernmental organizations and
Members of Congress that work in, are
knowledgeable of or benefit from, ocean
and coastal resource management.
