DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of 
information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 
U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
    Title: North Pacific Observer Safety and Security Survey.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-xxxx.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular (request for a new information 
collection).
    Number of Respondents: 300.
    Average Hours per Response: 10 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 50.
    Needs and Uses: The Office of Law Enforcement, Alaska Division, is 
conducting a survey of North Pacific Observers to determine the number 
of observers who experienced victimizing behavior during deployments in 
2016 and 2017. The survey will also investigate the reasons that 
prevented observers from reporting these violations. The results of the 
survey will provide the Office of Law Enforcement a better 
understanding of how often observers are victimized, which will enable 
them to reallocate resources as needed, conduct more training for 
observers to ensure they know how to report, conduct training to ensure 
people understand what constitutes a victim crime, and to increase 
awareness of potential victimizations. Additionally, the survey results 
will help law enforcement understand the barriers to disclosure, so 
enforcement may begin to address these impediments so they no longer 
prevent observers from disclosure.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    This information collection request may be viewed at reginfo.gov. 
Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce collections 
currently under review by OMB.
    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 14, 2018.
Sarah Brabson,
NOAA PRA Clearance Officer.
