The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is seeking public comments on a proposed information collection as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. They are asking for feedback on whether this information collection is necessary for the agency's activities, the accuracy of the estimated burden on participants, and ways to improve or reduce the burden of the collection process. The survey focuses on evaluating changes in economic value from water-based recreation in the Pacific Northwest and involves a mail and phone survey of selected households. Public comments need to be submitted by April 27, 2021, via the regulations.gov portal.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers wants to ask people questions about how they enjoy water activities, like fishing or swimming, in the Pacific Northwest. They are inviting everyone to share their thoughts about if this is really important, how much work or time it takes, and if there are easier ways to get their questions answered.
