provide the requested data in the
desired format.
A Federal Register notice with a 60day public comment period soliciting
comments on this collection of
information was published on July 9,
2018, 83 FR 31767. We did not receive
any public comments in response to that
notice.
We are again soliciting comments on
the proposed ICR that is described
below. We are especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is the collection
necessary for the USGS to perform its
duties, including whether the
information is useful; (2) the accuracy of
the agency’s estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information;
(3) ways to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4) how
to minimize the burden of this
collection on the respondents, including
through the use of information
technology.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
