    Needs and Uses: This request is for a revision and extension of a 
currently approved information collection.
    National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Office of 
Coast Survey is the nation's nautical chartmaker, maintaining and 
updating over a thousand charts covering the 3.5 million square 
nautical miles of coastal waters in the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone 
and the Great Lakes. Coast Survey also writes and publishes the United 
States Coast Pilot[supreg], a series of nine nautical books that 
supplement nautical charts with essential marine information that 
cannot be shown graphically on the charts and are not readily available 
elsewhere.
    Revision: Until recently, Coast Survey asked readers of the Coast 
Pilot to submit corrections or reports of inaccuracies by mailing or 
faxing a printed form found in the book. That form was discontinued. 
Now Coast Survey solicits information through the online Nautical 
Discrepancy Reporting System (http://ocsdata.ncd.noaa.gov/idrs/discrepancy.aspx).
    Data obtained through this system is used to update U.S. nautical 
charts and the United States Coast Pilot.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    This information collection request may be viewed at http://www.reginfo.gov. Follow the instructions to review Department of 
Commerce collections currently under review.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to [email protected] or fax to (202) 395-5806.

    Dated: February 18, 2014.
