SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Public Participation and Request for Comments

    This notice relies on the authority of the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995; 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., chapter 35, as amended. An ICR is an 
application to OIRA seeking the approval, extension, or renewal of a 
Coast Guard collection of information (Collection). The ICR contains 
information describing the Collection's purpose, the Collection's 
likely burden on the affected public, an explanation of the necessity 
of the Collection, and other important information describing the 
Collection. There is one ICR for each Collection.
    The Coast Guard invites comments on whether this ICR should be 
granted based on the Collection being necessary for the proper 
performance of Departmental functions. In particular, the Coast Guard 
would appreciate comments addressing: (1) the practical utility of the 
Collection; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden of the Collection; 
(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of information 
subject to the Collection; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the 
Collection on respondents, including the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.
    In response to your comments, we may revise this ICR or decide not 
to seek an extension of approval for the Collection. We will consider 
all comments and material received during the comment period.

Information Collection Request

    Title: Security Zones, Regulated Navigation Areas, and Safety 
Zones.
    OMB Control Number: 1625-0020.
    Summary: The Coast Guard collects this information only when 
someone seeks a security zone, regulated navigation area, or safety 
zone. It uses the information to assess the need to establish one of 
these areas.
    Need: Sections 70034 and 70051 of 46 U.S. Code, and parts 6 and 165 
of 33 CFR give the Coast Guard Captain of the Port (COTP) the authority 
to designate security zones in the U.S. for as long as the COTP deems 
necessary to prevent damage or injury. Section 70001 of 46 U.S. Code 
authorizes the Coast Guard to prescribe rules to control vessel traffic 
in areas he or she deems hazardous because of reduced visibility, 
adverse weather, or vessel congestion. Section 70011 of 46 U.S. Code 
authorizes the Coast Guard to establish rules to allow the designation 
of safety zones where access is limited to authorized persons, 
vehicles, or vessels to protect the public from hazardous situations.
    Forms: None.
    Respondents: Federal, State, and local government agencies, owners 
and operators of vessels and facilities.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has decreased from 928 
hours to 485 hours a year, due to a decrease in the estimated annual 
number of responses.
