SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S.
Global Change Research Program
(USGCRP) was created by Congress in
1990 to ‘‘assist the Nation and the world
to understand, assess, predict, and
respond to human-induced and natural
processes of global change.’’ USGCRP
comprises 15 Federal agencies that work
together to carry out its legislative
mandate. USGCRP is conducting the
first National Nature Assessment
(NNA1) to assess the condition of nature
as an aspect of global change.
The scope of NNA1 is to assess the
status, observed trends, and future
projections of America’s lands, waters,
wildlife, biodiversity, and ecosystems
and the benefits they provide, including
connections to the economy, public
health, equity, climate mitigation and
adaptation, and national security.
Background information, additional
details, and instructions for submitting
comments can be found at https://
www.globalchange.gov/notices.
Responses to this request for comment
can be entered via that website.
The USGCRP seeks public comment
on the annotated outlines of each
chapter of the NNA1, in particular on
the scope and framing of chapter’s
proposed topic areas. Input received on
proposed themes within each chapter’s
annotated outline will be used by
chapter author teams to develop their
draft chapters.
Authors of each NNA1 chapter will
develop chapter content structured
around the topic areas proposed in the
annotated outlines. The outlines
highlight what nature provides to us in
terms of its inherent worth, our wellbeing, economic value, and more, while
looking ahead to understand how these
benefits might change in the future.
Because chapter 1 will provide an
overview summary of the final report,
chapter 1 does not have an annotated
outline currently.
Chapter titles reflect the target topics
for the chapters. Final titles for the
chapter may evolve as authors assess
published literature.

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C.

information collections require approval
under the PRA. We may not conduct or

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 the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether 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 might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including 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
