SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 256001
Section 315 of the National Marine
Sanctuaries Act (NMSA) (16 U.S.C.
1445a) authorizes the Secretary of
Commerce to establish advisory
councils to advise and make
recommendations regarding the
designation and management of national
marine sanctuaries. ONMS is
establishing a new sanctuary advisory
council for the Wisconsin Shipwreck
Coast National Marine Sanctuary to
serve as a liaison with the local
community and to provide guidance
and advice to ONMS regarding the
sanctuary management plan. ONMS is
adding the new advisory council to the
list of sites with open vacancies and
announcing that it is soliciting
applications to fill the seats of this
council. Applications are due October 1,
2022.
In the following Supplementary
Information section, NOAA provides
details regarding ONMS, the role of
advisory councils, and contact
information for the Wisconsin
Shipwreck Coast National Marine
Sanctuary.
II. Office of National Marine
Sanctuaries (ONMS)
ONMS serves as the trustee for a
network of underwater parks
encompassing more than 620,000 square
miles or 1,600,000 square kilometers of
marine and Great Lakes waters from
Washington state to the Florida Keys,
and from Lake Huron to American
Samoa. The network includes a system
of 15 national marine sanctuaries and
the Papaha¯naumokua¯kea and Rose Atoll
marine national monuments. National
marine sanctuaries protect our nation’s
most vital coastal and marine natural
and cultural resources, and through
active research, management, and
public engagement, sustain healthy
environments that are the foundation for
thriving communities and stable
economies.
One of the many ways ONMS ensures
public participation in the designation
and management of national marine
sanctuaries is through the formation of
advisory councils. Advisory councils
are community-based groups
established to provide advice and
recommendations to ONMS on issues
including management, science, service,
and stewardship, as well as to serve as
liaisons between their constituents in
PO 00000
Frm 00014
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the community and the site. Pursuant to
Section 315(a) of the NMSA, advisory
councils are exempt from the
requirements of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act. Additional information
on ONMS and its advisory councils can
be found at https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov.
III. Advisory Council Membership
Under Section 315 of the NMSA,
advisory council members may be
appointed from among: (1) Persons
employed by Federal or State agencies
with expertise in natural resources
management; (2) members of relevant
regional fishery management councils;
and (3) representatives of local user
groups, conservation and other public
interest organizations, scientific
organizations, educational
organizations, or others interested in the
protection and multiple use
management of sanctuary resources. 16
U.S.C. 1455a(b).
The charter for each advisory council
defines the number and type of seats
and positions on the council. The
advisory council charter for the
Wisconsin Shipwreck Coast National
Marine Sanctuary identifies the
following non-governmental voting seat
types: Citizen-at-Large, Diving/Dive
Clubs/Archaeology, History, Heritage
and Public Interpretation, Education (K–
12), Education (Higher Education),
Tourism and Marketing, Economic
Development, Fishing, Recreation, and
Maritime Industry. Additionally, the
council will also have non-voting seats
for: United States Coast Guard, Ozaukee
County, Sheboygan County, Manitowoc
County, Kewaunee County, City of Port
Washington, City of Sheboygan, City of
Manitowoc and City of Two Rivers.
Recognizing the cultural significance
of this area to American Indian Nations
and Tribes, ONMS welcomes the
participation of interested Nations and
Tribes on the advisory council. This
could involve multiple Nations and
Tribes. Nations and Tribes interested in
participating in the advisory council
should contact the sanctuary
superintendent. Participation on the
council does not take the place of
government-to-government consultation
nor does it serve as the only opportunity
for engagement between NOAA and
American Indian Nations and Tribes.
For each of the existing advisory
councils, applicants are chosen based
upon their particular expertise and
experience in relation to the seat for
which they are applying; community
and professional affiliations; views
regarding the protection and
management of marine or Great Lakes
resources; and possibly (though not
required) the length of residence in the
E:\FR\FM\29AUN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 166 / Monday, August 29, 2022 / Notices
area affected by the site. Council
members and alternates for the
Wisconsin Shipwreck Coast National
Marine Sanctuary Advisory Council
serve two or three-year terms, as
reflected in the signed charter.
More information on advisory council
membership and processes, and
materials related to the purpose,
policies, and operational requirements
for advisory councils can be found in

council (https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/

B. Paperwork Reduction Act
ONMS has a valid Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) control
number (0648–0397) for the collection
of public information related to the
processing of ONMS national marine
sanctuary advisory council applications
across the National Marine Sanctuary
System. Establishing a sanctuary
advisory council for Wisconsin
Shipwreck Coast National Marine
Sanctuary fits within the estimated
reporting burden under that control
number. See https://www.reginfo.gov/

Number 0648–0397). Therefore, ONMS
will not request an update to the
reporting burden certified for OMB

estimate, or any other aspect of this data
collection, including suggestions for
reducing the burden, to: Office of

Notwithstanding any other provisions
of the law, no person is required to
respond to, nor shall any person be
subject to a penalty for failure to comply
with a collection of information subject
to the requirements of the Paperwork
