Notice of information collection;
request for comment.
ACTION:
In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is
proposing to renew an information
collection.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to
submit comments on or before July 18,
2023.
ADDRESSES: Send your comments on
this information collection request (ICR)
by mail to U.S. Geological Survey,
Information Collections Officer, 12201
Sunrise Valley Drive, MS 159, Reston,
VA 20192, or by email to gs-info_
collections@usgs.gov. Please reference
OMB Control Number 1028–0131 in the
subject line of your comments.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
request additional information about
this ICR, contact Katrina Alger by email
at kalger@usgs.gov or by telephone at
303–236–5031. Individuals in the
United States who are deaf, deafblind,
hard of hearing, or have a speech
disability may dial 711 (TTY, TDD, or
TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the PRA (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), all
information collections require
approval. We may not conduct or
sponsor, nor are you required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;

(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How the agency might minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before
including your address, phone number,
email address, or other personally
identifiable information (PII) in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
PII—may be made publicly available at
any time. While you can ask us in your
comment to withhold your PII from
public review, we cannot guarantee that
we will be able to do so.
Abstract:
The United States is facing growing
challenges related to the availability of
water due to shifting demographics,
aging water-delivery infrastructure, and
the impacts of climate change, which
include flood and drought. Working
with incomplete knowledge, managers
must consider the needs of various
demographic groups and economic
sectors when making management
decisions as well as when responding to
emergencies. We will collect
information regarding the decisionmaking process and data and dataformat needs to support daily, longterm, and emergency-response decisionmaking. Information will also be sought
on the resilience of water-resource
management institutions. A lack of
resilience within water institutions can
lead to poor decision-making and
outcomes that produce conflict between
water-use sectors, states, or
communities and ultimately may lead to
crisis. This information will support the
delivery of appropriate data, in
appropriate formats, at the right time for
decision-making and emergency
response as well as how water-resource
institutions can be more resilient in the
face of the many water-resources
challenges the nation currently faces.
This collection was originally
approved by OMB on 08/22/2022 as a
one-year pilot study with an expiration
of 8/31/23. We are seeking full approval
for this collection request through a
request for revision without substantive
change.

Abstract: The U.S. Geological Survey
(USGS) manages nine Regional Climate
Adaptation Science Centers (CASCs).
Each CASC is established through a
cooperative agreement with a host
institution. The host institution
agreements are periodically recompeted, requiring collection of
information from potential host
institutions. In addition, this
information collection addresses
quarterly and annual reporting required
of host institutions.
Title of Collection: Department of the
Interior Regional Climate Adaptation
Science Centers.
OMB Control Number: 1028–0096.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Institutions that may propose to serve as
CASC host or partner institutions
include state, local government, and
tribal entities, including academic
institutions. Existing host institutions
are state academic institutions.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Respondents: The USGS expects to
request proposals for a maximum of
three CASCs in any year, and to receive
an average of five proposals per CASCrequest, for a total of fifteen proposals
in any single year. The USGS expects to
enter into hosting agreements with a
minimum of nine CASC host
institutions.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 124 responses.
Estimated Completion Time per
Response: Each proposal for CASC
hosting is expected to take 200 hours to
complete. The time required to
