I. Abstract This request is for a revision and extension of a currently approved information collection. Mokupapapa Discovery Center (Center) is an outreach arm of Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument that reaches 60,000 people each year in Hilo, Hawai`i. The Center was created eight years ago to help raise support for the creation of a National Marine Sanctuary in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. Since that time, the area has been proclaimed a Marine National Monument and the main messages we are trying to share with the public have changed to better reflect the new monument status, UNESCO World Heritage status and the joint management by the three co-trustees of the Monument.

We therefore are seeking to find out if people visiting our Center are receiving the new messages by conducting an optional exit survey which is the proposed revision to the collection. II. Method of Collection Surveys will be conducted by in- person interview as people exit the Center. Interviewers will record responses on paper, and later transfer them to an electronic database. III. Data *OMB Control Number:* 0648-0582. *Form Number:* None. *Type of Review:* Regular submission (revision and extension of a currently approved collection). *Affected Public:* Individuals or households. *Estimated Number of Respondents:* 250. *Estimated Time per Response:* 7 minutes. *Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours:* 29. *Estimated Total Annual Cost to Public:* $0 in recordkeeping/reporting costs.

IV. Request for Comments Comments are invited on:

(a)Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical utility;

(b)the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden (including hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information;
