    Abstract: In 1993, EPA began compiling information on fish 
advisories provided by the states in its biannual 305(b) Water Quality 
Inventory Reports. In 1994, EPA's Office of Water began conducting a 
voluntary annual Fish Program Survey to obtain the most up-to-date 
information on fish advisories. This information is collected under the 
authority of section 104 of the Clean Water Act, which provides for the 
collection of information to be used to protect human health and the 
environment. The advisory information collected identifies the 
waterbody under advisory, the fish or shellfish species and size ranges 
included in the advisory, the chemical contaminants and residue levels 
causing the advisory to be issued, the waterbody type (river, lake, 
estuary, coastal waters), and the target populations to whom the 
advisory is directed. The results of the survey are shared with states, 
territories, tribes, other federal agencies, and the public through an 
online database. The responses to the survey are voluntary and the 
information requested is part of the state/tribal public record 
associated with the advisories. No confidential business information is 
requested.
    Form numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Administrators of Public Health and 
Environmental Quality Programs in state and tribal governments (NAICS 
92312/SIC 9431 and NAICS 92411/SIC 9511).
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Voluntary, (Clean Water Act, 
Section 104).
    Estimated number of respondents: 100 states, territories and 
tribes.
    Frequency of response: Annual.
    Total estimated burden: 2,468 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $110,517.20 (per year), which includes no 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is an increase of 584 hours in the 
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB. The increase is due to revised hourly burden estimates 
based on input from three states and the addition of two new activities 
to increase communication, engagement, information sharing and support 
between the EPA and the states, territories and tribes.
