SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:


[top] In accordance with the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. ) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we provide the general public and other Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and continuing collections of page 15574 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.

A Federal Register notice with a 60-day public comment period soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on May 21, 2024 (89 FR 44700). No comments were received.

As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burdens, we are again soliciting comments from the public and other Federal agencies on the proposed ICR that is described below. 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. 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 information to be collected includes demographic information (age, gender, education, and income), uses/activities respondents pursue in the Salmon River Basin, what values they associate with those activities, map locations associated with their top use, and knowledge of and attitudes towards commercial uses of the Basin. This information will be collected to develop use and value maps for the Basin. The information will be used for research purposes-to understand which users, uses, and values could be most impacted by various management actions. The USGS does not manage any lands and is unaware of any specific plans by the agencies that do. The name of the survey was changed from the earlier notice published in the Federal Register on May 21, 2024 (89 FR 44700) to "Recreation Mapping for the Salmon River Basin, Idaho."
