canned warmwater shrimp and prawns; and
(7) certain ‘‘battered shrimp’’ (see below).
‘‘Battered shrimp’’ is a shrimp-based
product: (1) That is produced from fresh (or
thawed-from-frozen) and peeled shrimp; (2)
to which a ‘‘dusting’’ layer of rice or wheat
flour of at least 95 percent purity has been
applied; (3) with the entire surface of the
shrimp flesh thoroughly and evenly coated
with the flour; (4) with the non-shrimp
content of the end product constituting
between four and 10 percent of the product’s
total weight after being dusted, but prior to
being frozen; and (5) that is subjected to
individually quick frozen (‘‘IQF’’) freezing
immediately after application of the dusting
layer. When dusted in accordance with the
definition of dusting above, the battered
shrimp product is also coated with a wet
viscous layer containing egg and/or milk, and
par-fried.
The products included in the scope of
these investigations are currently classified

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This request is for extension of a
current information collection.
NOAA provides educators an
opportunity to gain first-hand
experience with field research activities
through the NOAA Teacher at Sea
Program. Through this program,
educators spend up to 4 weeks at sea on
a NOAA research vessel, participating
in an on-going research project with
NOAA scientists. The application
solicits information from interested
educators: basic personal information,
teaching experience and ideas for
applying program experience in their
classrooms, plus two recommendations
and a NOAA Health Services
Questionnaire required of anyone
selected to participate in the program.
Once educators are selected and
participate on a cruise, they write a
report detailing the events of the cruise
and ideas for classroom activities based
on what they learned while at sea.
These materials are then made available
to other educators so they may benefit
from the experience, without actually
going to sea themselves. NOAA does not
collect information from this universe of
respondents for any other purpose.
