SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Stakeholder and Community 
Coastal Storm Hazard Surveys; OMB Control Number 0710-CCFR.
    Type of Request: New.
    Number of Respondents: 3,050.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 3,050.
    Average Burden per Response: 30 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 1,525.
    Needs and Uses: Information from the surveys described here is 
needed to support research that was appropriated in the Consolidated 
Appropriations Act, 2021 (Pub. L. 116-260). In the explanatory 
statement on Division D of the Act, Energy and Water Development and 
Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021, the Regional Sediment 
Management program was appropriated additional funding to address 
research and development for compound coastal flooding to ``enhance the 
resiliency of coastal communities and mitigate socioeconomic and 
environmental consequences of extreme coastal hazards.'' This includes 
funds provided to support cooperative efforts between the Corps and 
academia to address compound flooding issues. The explanatory statement 
can be accessed at the following link: <a href="https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CREC-2020-12-21/pdf/CREC-2020-12-21-house-bk4.pdf">https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CREC-2020-12-21/pdf/CREC-2020-12-21-house-bk4.pdf</a>. This 
Congressional funding resulted in a $5 million joint effort between the 
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers--Engineer Research and Development Center 
(ERDC) and the University of Alabama under the Cooperative Agreement 
``Coastal Compound Flooding under Uncertainties: Physically-based and 
Data Driven Modeling Framework.'' Research tasks 9 and 10 of this 
cooperative agreement seek to address the Congressional directive to 
connect enhanced flood forecasting with community resilience.
    This research effort seeks to inform improved modeling of compound 
coastal storm events, including improved simulation of impacts to 
communities and of protective action-taking. The proposed tasks 
contained in the Broad Agency Agreement with the University of Alabama 
seek to identify effective flood risk communication tools that 
influence coastal residents' risk mitigation actions and to better 
understand key community stakeholder communication of hazards. 
Execution of these tasks requires the University of Alabama Principal 
Investigator and research 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, meeting the Appropriations Bill directive 
described above.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: One-time collection.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Mr. Matthew Oreska.
