SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Managed Aquifer Recharge Planning and Guidance Study; OMB Control Number 0710–MARP. Needs and Uses: The survey will inform the development of a screening tool and other resources for USACE Districts to identify optimal sites for Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR), which uses captured surface water to replenish groundwater. The Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) of 2016 provides authority for water supply conservation projects for drought resilience and water supply availability studies for water resources development (Sections 1116 and 1118, respectively). The WRDA of 2016 further requires USACE to consider natural and naturebased features, such as MAR, as potential solutions to address various challenges along with other measures. However, USACE has not developed a strategic framework for incorporating MAR into its operations. Furthermore, E:\FR\FM\20OCN1.SGM 20OCN1 ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 202 / Friday, October 20, 2023 / Notices the Institute for Water Research concluded that Districts only engage with aquifer recharge in an ‘‘ad hoc’’ manner and recommended that USACE ‘‘upgrade its internal capacity in MAR.’’ (IWR 2020). The WRDA of 2022 instructs USACE to ‘‘conduct a study at Federal expense to determine the feasibility of carrying out managed aquifer recharge projects to address drought, water resiliency, and aquifer depletion.’’ Following these recommendations, the proposed work contributes to the development of guidance on MAR. This aligns with Civil Works strategies for flood risk management, restoration of aquatic ecosystems in floodplains, and developing environmentally sustainable technical services that enhance public safety and require collaborative partnerships. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers— Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) has partnered with Arizona State University (ASU) through the Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Units (CESU) Network to complete the ‘‘Managed Aquifer Recharge Planning and Guidance Study’’ and meet the above goals and directives. The design of an effective screening tool and other resources for implementing MAR requires information held by key stakeholders and decision-makers to understand the challenges and needs associated with implementing MAR in regions around the nation. Developing the screening tool and other resources will further require identifying practitioners and stakeholders interested in participating in pilot projects. The ASU Principal Investigator and research team will deploy a survey to inform the development of a MAR screening tool by gathering information about the knowledge, perceptions, and attitudes of stakeholders and decisionmakers about MAR. The survey will target a purposively developed sample of key water and floodplain stakeholders and decision-makers from across the continental United States.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) Pilot Program Evaluation at Travis Air Force Base Survey; OMB Control Number 0720– EFMP. Needs and Uses: David Grant Medical Center is taking part in a pilot program for EFMP family members. The goal of this pilot program is to connect EFMP families with quality medical and nonmedical resources to support and care for their family members. In this pilot program, EFMP family members at David Grant are being provided with ‘‘Care Maps’’ that identify resources tailored to their diagnoses. The intent of this web-based survey is to solicit feedback on the efficacy and usefulness of these resources, as well as feedback from EFMP families at David Grant that have not received specialized maps to understand their experience in obtaining EFMP care without said resources. These results will be used as part of a larger evaluation of this pilot program, and actions may be taken to continue development of the pilot program, terminate the pilot program, as well as used to identify areas of opportunity to better support EFMP families based on the feedback and insight collected about their current experience and challenges.
