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 USA–National
Phenology Network is a program
sponsored by the USGS that uses
standardized forms for tracking plant
and animal activity as part of a project
called Nature’s Notebook. The Nature’s
Notebook forms are used to record
phenology (e.g., the timing of the leafing
or flowering of plants and the
reproduction or migration of animals) as
part of a nationwide effort to understand
and predict how plants and animals
respond to environmental variation and
changes in weather and climate.
Contemporary data collected through
Nature’s Notebook are quality-checked,
described, and made publicly available;
data are used to inform decision-making
in a variety of contexts, including
agriculture, drought monitoring, and
wildfire risk assessment. Phenological
information is also critical for the

management of wildlife, invasive
species, and agricultural pests, and for
understanding and managing risks to
human health and welfare, including
allergies, asthma, and vector-borne
diseases. Participants may contribute
phenology information to Nature’s
Notebook through a browser-based web
application or via mobile applications
for iPhone and Android operating
systems, meeting Government
Paperwork Elimination Act (GPEA) and
Privacy Act requirements. The web
application interface consists of several
components: User registration; a
searchable list of 1,756 plant and animal
species that can be observed; a ‘‘profile’’
for each species that contains
information about the species including
its description and the appropriate
monitoring protocols; a series of
interfaces for registering as an observer,
registering an observation site, and
registering plants and animals at an
observation site; generating datasheets
to take to the field, and a data entry page
that mimics the datasheets.
Title of Collection: USA NATIONAL
PHENOLOGY NETWORK—THE
NATURE’S NOTEBOOK PLANT AND
ANIMAL OBSERVING PROGRAM.
OMB Control Number: 1028–0103.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Members of the public registered with
Nature’s Notebook, State Cooperative
Extension employees, and Tribal
members.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Respondents: 6,598.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 4,102,388.
Estimated Completion Time per
Response: Upon joining the program,
each of the 6,598 respondents is
expected to spend 13 minutes to register
and read guidelines for an annual
burden of 1,430 hours. New and existing
respondents are expected to spend
about two minutes on each observation
and submission of a phenophase status
record. Given a projection of 4,102,388
phenophase status responses each year,
annual burden of observation and
submission of records is 136,746 hours.
Thus, the Total Estimated Annual
Burden is 138,176 hours.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion;
depends on the seasonal activity of
plants and animals.
Non-hour burden costs may be
incurred for optional items such as
clipboards, pencils, flags, markers,
stakes, tags and/or popsicle sticks. We
estimate that only 20% of users (i.e.,
1,320) will incur these costs, at an

estimated cost of $2.52 per user, for a
Total Estimated Annual Non-hour
Burden cost of $3,327.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, nor is a person required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
The authority for this action is the
PRA of 1995.
