DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission to the

Request; Workplace Violence Prevention and Response Forms
The Department of Commerce will submit the following information
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
[[Page 60934]]
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, on or after the date of
publication of this notice. We invite the general public and other
Federal agencies to comment on proposed, and continuing information
collections, which helps us assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize the public's reporting burden.
Public comments were previously requested via the Federal Register on
December 27, 2022 (87 FR 79279) during a 60-day comment period. This
notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.
Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
Commerce.
Title: Workplace Violence Prevention and Response Forms.
OMB Control Number: 0648-XXXX.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission, new information collection.
Number of Respondents: 323.
Average Hours Per Response: Impacted Person Reporting Preference
Form and SASH.
Data Collection Form: 1 hour; Workplace Culture Survey: 30 minutes;
Ocean Acidification.
Post-Cruise Survey: 10 minutes.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 237.
Needs and Uses: This is a request for a new information collection.
This information collection will be used to document elements of
the sexual assault/sexual harassment (SASH) response and/or reporting
process and comply with procedures set up to effectively manage
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Workplace
Violence Prevention and Response (WVPR). Under 33 U.S.C. 894, NOAA is
required to establish a mechanism by which sexual assault and sexual
harassment can be reported on a Restricted and Unrestricted basis.
Further, Congress directs NOAA to reference Department of Defense (DoD)
policy and procedures in the standup of our SASH response program. WVPR
requires various Intake forms to document a victim's election of a
Restricted or Unrestricted Report of sexual assault or sexual
harassment, as well as document that the details of each reporting
option have been properly communicated with the victim. WVPR has
modeled its forms after the DoD sexual assault/sexual harassment forms
in accordance with guidance by Congress. NOAA may also use this
collection to survey federal employees, contractors, affiliates,
interns, volunteers, or other individuals who work in or visit NOAA-
occupied facilities, vessels, or aircraft to determine their
perceptions of incidents of SASH, pursuant to NOAA Administrative Order
(NAO) 202-1106, Section 5.01e.
Affected Public: Individuals employed by NOAA, including affiliates
and contractors.
Frequency: As needed.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: 33 U.S.C. 894.
