Agency Information Collection Activities; National Land Remote 
Sensing Education, Outreach and Research Activity

AGENCY: U.S. Geological Survey, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of Information Collection; request for comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 
U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is proposing to renew an information 
collection.

DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before 
July 30, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Send your comments on the information collection request 
(ICR) by mail to the U.S. Geological Survey, Information Collections 
Clearance Officer, 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive, MS 159, Reston, VA 
20192; or by email to [email protected]. Please reference 
OMB Control Number 1028-0085 in the subject line of your comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request additional information 
about this ICR, contact Sarah Cook by email at [email protected], or by 
telephone at 703-648-6136.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the U.S. Geological Survey, in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, provide the 
general public and other Federal agencies with an opportunity to 
comment on 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 soliciting comments on the proposed ICR described below. We 
are especially interested in public comment addressing the following 
issues: (1) Is the collection necessary for the proper functions of the 
USGS; (2) will this information be processed and used in a timely 
manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) how might the USGS 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (5) how might the USGS minimize the burden of this 
collection on the respondents, including through the use of information 
technology.
    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 
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before including your address, phone 
number, email address, or other personal identifying information in 
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including 
your personal identifying information--may be made publicly available 
at any time. While you may ask us in your comment to withhold your 
personal identifying information from public review, we cannot 
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
    Abstract: The National Land Remote Sensing Education, Outreach and 
Research Activity (NLRSEORA) is an effort that involves the development 
of a U.S. national consortium in building the capability to receive, 
process and archive remotely sensed data for the purpose of providing 
access to university and state organizations in a ready-to-use format; 
and to expand the science of remote sensing through education, 
research/applications development and outreach in areas such as 
environmental monitoring to include the effects of climate variability 
on water availability (or lack thereof) and phenology, natural resource 
management and disaster analysis. Respondents are submitting proposals 
to acquire funding for a national (U.S.) program to promote the uses of 
space-based land remote sensing data and technologies through education 
and outreach at the state and local level and through university-based 
and collaborative research projects. The information collected will 
ensure that sufficient and relevant information is available to 
evaluate and select a proposal for funding. A panel of USGS Land 
Resources Mission Area managers and scientists will review each 
proposal to evaluate the technical merit, requirements, and priorities 
identified in the call for proposals.
    This notice concerns the collection of information that is 
sufficient and relevant to evaluate and select proposals for funding. 
We will protect information from respondents considered proprietary 
under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and its 
implementing regulations (43 CFR part 2), and under regulations at 30 
CFR 250.197, ``Data and information to be made available to the public 
or for limited inspection.'' Responses are voluntary. No questions of a 
``sensitive'' nature are asked. We intend to release the project 
abstracts and primary investigators for awarded/funded projects only.
    Title of Collection: National Land Remote Sensing Education, 
Outreach and Research Activity (NLRSEORA).
    OMB Control Number: 1028-0085.
    Form Number: None.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Public or private institutions of 
higher education including universities; state and local governments 
(including county, city, township or special district governments), 
independent school districts, Native American Tribal governments or 
oganizations, nonprofit organizations (with or without 501(c)(3) 
status).
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: Approximately 5 
respondents.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: Approximately 5 
responses or applications.
    Estimated Completion Time per Response: We expect to receive 
approximately 5 applications per year, taking each applicant 
approximately 24 hours to complete, totaling 120 burden hours. We 
anticipate awarding one (1) grant per year. The grantee will be 
required to submit an interim Annual Progress Report to the designated 
USGS Project Officer within 90 days of the end of the project period 
and a final report

[[Page 25039]]

on or before 90 working days after the expiration of the agreement.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 120 hours per year.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to Obtain a Benefit.
    Frequency of Collection: Annually.
    Total Estimated Annual Non-hour Burden Cost: There are no ``non-
hour-cost'' burdens associated with this IC.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number.
    The authorities for this action are the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.).
