which describes the fisheries, evaluates
the status of the stock, estimates
biological benchmarks, projects future
population conditions, and recommends
research and monitoring needs. The
assessment is independently peer
reviewed at the Review Workshop. The
product of the Review Workshop is a
Summary documenting panel opinions
regarding the strengths and weaknesses
of the stock assessment and input data.
Participants for SEDAR Workshops are
appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South

The items of discussion in the Data
Workshop agenda are as follows:
1. An assessment data set and
associated documentation will be
developed.
2. Participants will evaluate all
available data and select appropriate
sources for providing information on
life history characteristics, catch
statistics, discard estimates, length and
age composition, and fishery dependent
and fishery independent measures of
stock abundance, as specified in the
Terms of Reference for the workshop.
Although non-emergency issues not
contained in this agenda may come
before this group for discussion, those
issues may not be the subject of formal
action during this meeting. Action will

AGENCY:
The Corporation for National
and Community Service (CNCS), as part
of its continuing effort to reduce

conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This

collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirement on respondents can be
properly assessed.
Currently, CNCS is soliciting

Project Sponsor Survey measures a
sponsor’s level of satisfaction upon
completion of each NCCC project. The
survey measures two outcomes of NCCC
projects: Enhanced capacity of the
sponsoring organization (sponsor) to
meet community needs, and expanded
or enhanced community impact due to
sponsor-NCCC collaboration.
Completion of this information
collection is not required to be
considered for or obtain support from
AmeriCorps NCCC.
Copies of the information collection
request can be obtained by contacting
the office listed in the ADDRESSES

ADDRESSES:
Background
The AmeriCorps NCCC Project
Sponsor Survey evaluates NCCC’s
performance impact on sponsoring
organizations and communities. NCCC
utilizes this data, completed by
sponsoring organizations, to capture the
short and long-term outcomes of the
NCCC program on the organizations and
the communities they serve. In order to
achieve this goal, the survey measures
enhanced capacity of the sponsoring
organization (‘‘sponsor’’) to meet
community needs, and expanded or
enhanced community impact due to
PO 00000

sponsor-NCCC collaboration. Sponsors
receive one of two possible surveys. The
first is for project sponsors that selfidentify as having a volunteer
generation component and the other is
for non-volunteer generating projects.
The volunteer generation survey has
additional questions to evaluate the
effectiveness of NCCC teams in
recruiting or coordinating volunteers.
The survey is administered
electronically to all project sponsors
after each round is completed.
Current Action
The information collection will
otherwise be used in the same manner
as the existing survey. CNCS also seeks
to continue using the current survey
until the revised survey is approved by
OMB. The current survey is due to
expire on May 2014.
Type of Review: Renewal.
Agency: Corporation for National and
Community Service.
Title: AmeriCorps NCCC Sponsor
Survey.
OMB Number: 3045–0138.
Agency Number: None.
Affected Public: The NCCC sponsor
survey will be administered to the
project sponsor for any NCCC service
project. These sponsors apply to receive
a 10-person NCCC team for a period of
six–eight weeks to implement local
service projects. There are
approximately 156 projects in each of
four project rounds per year. The project
sponsors are uniquely able to provide
the information sought in the NCCC
Sponsor Survey.
Total Respondents: Based on the
number of projects completed last fiscal
year, NCCC expects to administer 625
surveys each fiscal year. These may not
be unique responders as many sponsors
receive teams on a rotating basis and
thus may complete the survey more
than once per year.
Frequency: Quarterly distribution.
Each sponsor will complete only one
survey per project.
Time per Response: 10 minutes.
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 104
hours.
Total Burden Cost (capital/startup):
None.
Total Burden Cost (operating/
maintenance): None.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for Office of
Management and Budget approval of the
information collection request; they will
also become a matter of public record.
