and seven World Data Centers. These
centers respond to over 2,000,000
requests for these data and products
annually from over 70 countries. This
collection of environmental data and
products is growing rapidly, both in size
and sophistication, and as a result the
associated costs have increased.
Users have the ability to access the
data offline, online and through the
NESDIS e-Commerce System (NeS)
online store. Our ability to provide data,
information, products and services
depends on user fees.

Fee Schedule
RIN 0648–BG39
In an October 22, 2015, final rule (80
FR 63914), NESDIS established a new
schedule of fees for the sale of its data,
information, and related products and
services to users (‘‘October 2015 Fee
Schedule Rule’’). NESDIS revised the
fee schedule that had been in effect
since 2013 to ensure that the fees
accurately reflect the costs of providing
access to the environmental data,
information, and related products and
services.
NESDIS will continue to review the
user fees periodically, and will revise
such fees as necessary. Any future
changes in the user fees and their
effective date will be announced
through notice in the Federal Register.

ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
In this final rule, NESDIS
adds a new service/product to the
NESDIS FY 2017 schedule of fees for the
sale of its data, information, and related
products and services to users. NESDIS
is authorized under the United States
Code to assess fees, up to fair market
value, for access to environmental data,
information, and products derived from,
collected, and/or archived by NOAA.
This action adds a new user fee for a
data product titled, High Definition
Geomagnetic Model—Real Time.
DATES: Effective May 18, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Background
NESDIS operates NOAA’s National
Center for Environmental Information
(NCEI). Through NCEI, NESDIS
provides and ensures timely access to
global environmental data from
satellites and other sources, provides
information services, and develops
science products. NESDIS maintains
some 1,300 databases containing over
2,400 environmental variables at NCEI
schedule of fees but rather the addition
of one new fee.
Classification
This rule has been determined to be
not significant for purposes of E.O.
12866. The provisions of the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553) requiring notice of proposed
rulemaking and the opportunity for
public comment are inapplicable
because this rule falls within the public
property exception of subparagraph
(a)(2) of section 553, as it relates only to
the assessment of fees, as authorized by
15 U.S.C. 1534, that accurately reflect
the costs of providing access to publicly
available environmental data,
information, and related products.
Further, no other law requires that a
notice of proposed rulemaking and an
opportunity for public comment be
given for this rule. Because a notice of
proposed rulemaking and an
opportunity for public comment are not
required to be given for this rule under
5 U.S.C. 553 or by any other law, the
requirements of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are
not applicable. Accordingly, no
Regulatory Flexibility Analysis is
required and none has been prepared.

Need for Addition
High Definition Geomagnetic Model—
Real Time accurately models the
magnetic fields originating in the Earth’s
magnetosphere in real-time using a
combination of solar-wind observing
satellites situated between Earth and
sun and a chain of geomagnetic
observatories on the Earth’s surface.
We are adding a new user fee for this
data product—High Definition
Geomagnetic Model—Real Time—to the
current user fee schedule. Accordingly,
Appendix A to Part 950—Schedule of
User Fees for Access to NOAA
Environmental Data includes the user
fees established in October 2015 and the
new fee established by this final rule:
High Definition Geomagnetic Model—
Real Time Fee. In addition, NESDIS has
deleted the New Fee column in
Appendix A to avoid confusion given
that this final rule is not issuing a new

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
NESDIS operates NOAA's National Center for Environmental
Information (NCEI). Through NCEI, NESDIS provides and ensures timely
access to global environmental data from satellites and other sources,
provides information services, and develops science products. NESDIS
maintains some 1,300 databases containing over 2,400 environmental
variables at NCEI and seven World Data Centers. These centers respond
to over 2,000,000 requests for these data and products annually from
over 70 countries. This collection of environmental data and products
is growing rapidly, both in size and sophistication, and as a result
the associated costs have increased.
Users have the ability to access the data offline, online and
through the NESDIS e-Commerce System (NeS) online store. Our ability to
provide data, information, products and services depends on user fees.
Fee Schedule
In an October 22, 2015, final rule (80 FR 63914), NESDIS
established a new schedule of fees for the sale of its data,
information, and related products and services to users (``October 2015
Fee Schedule Rule''). NESDIS revised the fee schedule that had been in
effect since 2013 to ensure that the fees accurately reflect the costs
of providing access to the environmental data, information, and related
products and services.
NESDIS will continue to review the user fees periodically, and will
revise such fees as necessary. Any future changes in the user fees and
their effective date will be announced through notice in the Federal
Register.
Need for Addition
High Definition Geomagnetic Model--Real Time accurately models the
magnetic fields originating in the Earth's magnetosphere in real-time
using a combination of solar-wind observing satellites situated between
Earth and sun and a chain of geomagnetic observatories on the Earth's
surface.
We are adding a new user fee for this data product--High Definition
Geomagnetic Model--Real Time--to the current user fee schedule.
Accordingly, Appendix A to Part 950--Schedule of User Fees for Access
to NOAA Environmental Data includes the user fees established in
October 2015 and the new fee established by this final rule: High
Definition Geomagnetic Model--Real Time Fee. In addition, NESDIS has
deleted the New Fee column in Appendix A to avoid confusion given that
this final rule is not issuing a new schedule of fees but rather the
addition of one new fee.
Classification
This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of
E.O. 12866. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5
U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking and the opportunity
for public comment are inapplicable because this rule falls within the
public property exception of subparagraph (a)(2) of section 553, as it

not required to be given for this rule under 5 U.S.C. 553 or by any
other law, the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C.
601 et seq.) are not applicable. Accordingly, no Regulatory Flexibility
