I. Abstract
This request is for a new information
collection.
The National Ocean Service, Office of
Response and Restoration, Marine
Debris Program is sponsoring this data
collection. The Marine Debris Program
was created under the 2006 ‘‘Marine
Debris Research, Prevention, and
Reduction Act’’ (33 U.S.C. 1951 et seq.)
which was reauthorized in 2012 as the
‘‘Marine Debris Act Amendments of
2012’’ (H.R. 1171) as part of the Coast
Guard Maritime Transportation Act
(H.R. 2838). Among other activities, the
bill requires NOAA ‘‘. . . to address the
adverse impacts of marine debris on the
United States economy . . .’’ To that
aim, the proposed data collection will
support the goals of a larger study
whose purpose is to develop a regional
economic model to estimate the value to
local economies of increased spending
on recreation and tourism from the
reduction or elimination of marine
debris on beaches in seven coastal
communities of the continental U.S. The
data collection will consist of on-site
sampling to generate a pool of
respondents who will be sent a mail
survey that asks questions related to
beach attributes, local beach familiarity,
number of beach trips taken, and ratings
of marine debris encountered while on
these trips. Onsite sampling will involve
intercepting people at several beaches in
each study area and asking them to
participate in a mail survey. For those
willing to take the mail survey, a brief
onsite interview will ask the
respondent’s name and mailing address,
as well as several demographic
questions such as age and education.
Those who do not agree to participate in
the mail survey will only be asked the
demographic questions, whether they
participated in a single or multi-day
trip, and zip code. A mail-survey mode
will be used for the follow-up
questionnaire. The mail survey
instrument will combine a selection of
questions from a previously OMBapproved survey instrument used in
Orange County, California with new
contingent behavior questions
developed specifically for this study to
determine the impact of the presence of
marine debris on respondents’
recreation choices. This data collection
will determine the impact of marine
debris on survey respondents’ recreation
choices at these seven coastal
communities and represents the first
component to be undertaken as part of
the larger study.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
108 of the Consumer Product Safety
Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA)
required the Commission to appoint a
Chronic Hazard Advisory Panel (CHAP)
to study the effects on children’s health
of phthalates and phthalate alternatives
in children’s toys and child care
articles. Public Law 110–314, Section
108(b)(2)(A). The CHAP report is
available at: https://www.cpsc.gov/
PageFiles/169902/CHAP-REPORT-WithAppendices.pdf.
The CPSIA also required that the
CHAP issue a report to the Commission
and that the Commission conduct
rulemaking based on the CHAP report.
Id. Section 108(b)(2)(C); 108(b)(3). On
December 30, 2014, the Commission
issued a notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPR) that would prohibit children’s
toys and child care articles containing
specified phthalates. 79 FR 78324
(December 30, 2014).
The CHAP assessed human exposure
to phthalates, in part, through human
biomonitoring analysis. Among the data
sources the CHAP considered were data
from the National Human Health and
Nutrition Survey (NHANES). See 79 FR
at 78327. Specifically, the CHAP used
biomonitoring data from the 2005/2006
NHANES data set.
In June 2015, CPSC staff released a
document, ‘‘Estimated Phthalate
Exposure and Risk to Pregnant Women
and Women of Reproductive Age as
Assessed Using Four NHANES
Biomonitoring Data Sets (2005/2006,
2007/2008, 2009/2010, 2011/2012).’’ 1
The June 2015 analysis reviewed the
2005/2006 NHANES data set to replicate
the CHAP’s methodology and reviewed
the subsequent NHANES data sets from
2007/2008, 2009/2010, 2011/2012). On
June 23, 2015, the Commission
published a notice of availability (NOA)

in the Federal Register requesting
public comment on the June 2015 staff
analysis document. 80 FR 35938 (June

Since the June 2015 staff analysis, the
Centers for Disease Control released the
NHANES 2013/14 data set. In response
to the release of the NHANES 2013/14
data set, CPSC staff has prepared a
document reflecting the staff’s analysis
of the NHANES 2013/2014 data set:
‘‘Estimated Phthalate Exposure and Risk
to Women of Reproductive Age as
Assessed Using 2013/2014 NHANES
Biomonitoring Data.’’ The document is
