SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Stakeholder and Community
Coastal Storm Hazard Surveys; OMB Control Number 0710-CCFR.
Needs and Uses: Information from the surveys described here is
needed to address the research questions funded in the Compound Coastal
Flooding Congressional Add; a $5 million joint effort between the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers--Engineer Research and Development Center
(ERDC) and the University of Alabama. Research seeks to inform improved
modeling of compound coastal storm events, including improved
simulation of impacts to communities and of protective action-taking.
The collaborative Broad Agency Agreement with the University of Alabama
includes proposed tasks to identify effective flood risk communication
tools which influence coastal residents' risk mitigation actions and to
better understand key community stakeholder communication of hazards.
Execution of these funded tasks requires the University of Alabama
Principal Investigator and team to gather information through three
community and stakeholder surveys. Findings from their analysis will
inform coastal storm hazard modeling and risk communication for better
outcomes from storm events.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Annual Burden Hours: 1,525.
Number of Respondents: 3,050.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 3,050.
Average Burden per Response: 30 minutes.
Frequency: Once.
The coastal storm hazard surveys will be distributed to
stakeholders and members of the general public in Houston, Texas,
Mobile, Alabama, and Savannah, Georgia. The stakeholder survey
instrument aims to identify the perceptions and attitudes of local
stakeholders in these at-risk areas toward coastal storm hazards,
mitigation of those hazards, and the information dissemination to the
public regarding those hazards. Three community survey instruments aim
to identify the perceptions and use of information by the general
public regarding coastal hazards, specifically hurricane and flood
events, before, during, and after the Atlantic hurricane season. The
data will be used for statistical tests to identify significant trends
in the distinct topics addressed by each survey.
