    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 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 17, 2024, during a 60-day comment period. 
This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.

Commerce.

NOAA to implement the Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program 
(CZMA Section 307A), under its current or future authorization, and 
facilitate the review of similar projects under different, but related, 
authorities, including the National Estuarine Research Reserve System 
(CZMA Section 315) Land Acquisition and Construction program; the 
Coastal Zone Management Program's low-cost acquisition and construction 
program (CZMA Section 306A), or the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act.

government.
    Frequency: Information is collected once every five years for CELCP 
plans; one time each year for project proposals, final grant 
applications, and due diligence materials for selected projects; two
