Information Collection Request

    Title: National Recreational Boating Safety Survey.
    OMB Control Number: 1625-0089.
    Summary: The National Recreational Boating Safety Survey collects 
data on recreational boating participation and exposure. Specifically, 
the survey focuses on the types of boats used, the demographics of 
boaters, the types of safety equipment on recreational boats, and the 
amount of time boaters spend on the water. Boating hours calculated 
from this survey play an integral part in calculating risk ratios 
associated with recreational boating. In light of the USCG's safety-
oriented mission, we are proposing a name change of this survey to the 
National Recreational Boating Safety Survey from the National 
Recreational Boating Survey.
    Need: The Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971 determines the framework 
of the Coast Guard recreational boating safety program. This program as 
set forth in 46 U.S.C. Chapter 131, requires the Coast Guard to 
``encourage greater State participation and uniformity in boating 
safety efforts, and particularly to permit the States to assume a 
greater share of boating safety education, assistance, and enforcement 
activities.'' See 46 U.S.C. 13102. The Coast Guard Office of Auxiliary 
& Boating Safety, Boating Safety Division achieves these goals by 
providing timely and relevant information on boating activities that 
occur in each respective jurisdiction. The boating information provided 
by the Coast Guard enables each State agency to tailor and implement 
safety initiatives addressing specific needs of boaters in local 
jurisdictions. The primary objective of this collection is to provide 
the Coast Guard with the required information in a format suitable to 
effectively manage the program.
    Forms: None.
    Respondents: Recreational boaters and recreational boat owners 
living in the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
    Frequency: The survey takes place every five to eight years and the 
last survey was conducted in 2018.
    Hour Burden Estimate: The survey will take approximately 125,863 
respondents a total estimate burden of 15,151 hours.
    Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter 
35, as amended.

    Dated: August 27, 2024.
Kathleen Claffie,
Chief, Office of Privacy Management, U.S. Coast Guard.
