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.
    Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
    Title: STORMREADY[reg] TSUMANIREADY[reg], TSUNAMIREADY[reg] 
SUPPORTER, AND STORMREADY[reg] SUPPORTER APPLICATION FORMS.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0419.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular (extension of a currently approved 
information collection).
    Number of Respondents: 285.
    Average Hours per Response: Full applications, 2 hours; supporter 
applications, 1 hour.
    Burden Hours: 525.
    Needs and Uses: This request is for extension of a currently 
approved information collection.
    The National Weather Service (NWS) established the StormReady 
program in 1999 and the TsunamiReady program in 2002 to help counties, 
cities and towns implement procedures to reduce the potential for 
weather-related and tsunami hazards. By participating in this program, 
local agencies earn recognition for their jurisdiction by meeting 
guidelines established by the NWS in partnership with federal, state, 
and local emergency management professionals. Information and details 
on the StormReady and TsunamiReady programs are located at https://www.weather.gov/stormready/ and https://www.weather.gov/tsunamiready/ ready/.
    Many businesses, schools, nonprofit organizations and other non-
governmental entities establish severe weather safety plans and 
actively promote severe weather safety awareness activities. The NWS 
established the StormReady and TsunamiReady Supporter programs to 
recognize those entities do not have the resources necessary to fulfill 
all the full StormReady or TsunamiReady eligibility but actively 
promote the principles of the program.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organization; not-
for-profit institutions; state, local or tribal government.
    Frequency: Every three years or 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: April 24, 2018.
