Abstract:
The FY 2002 Commerce, Justice, State Appropriations Act directed the Secretary of Commerce to establish a Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program to protect important areas that have significant conservation, recreation, ecological, historical, or aesthetic values, or that are threatened by conversion, and to issue guidelines for this program delineating the criteria for grant awards. (16 U.S.C. 1456d.) The guidelines establish procedures for eligible applicants, who choose to participate in the program, to use when developing state conservation plans, proposing or soliciting projects under this program, applying for funds and carrying out projects under this program in a manner that is consistent with the purposes of the program. NOAA also has, or is given, authority under the Coastal Zone Management Act, annual appropriations or other authorities, to issue funds to coastal states and localities for planning, conservation, acquisition, protection, restoration, or construction projects. This information collection will enable NOAA to implement the CELCP, under its current or future authorization, and facilitate the review of similar projects under different, but related authorities.

Short Statement:
Adjustments: There was an adjustment upward of 5 hours. Although there are fewer respondents overall, an average of one new plan is expected per year, rather than one plan in three years, so that the annualized burden increased from 40 to 120 hours. Also, the project application response time estimate was increased from 15 to 20 hours. There was an adjustment downward of $318 annually (reduced from $523 to $205) for the annualized cost, to account for increased use of electronic transmission for documents and less reliance on postage.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$10,200
