recreation resources, trends in uses of
those resources, and a basis for
developing and evaluating programs
and projects to meet existing and future
needs.
We collect the information in
conjunction with carrying out our
responsibilities under the Federal Aid
in Sport Fish Restoration Act (16 U.S.C.
777-777M), commonly referred to as the
Dingell-Johnson Act, and the Federal
Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act (16
U.S.C. 669-669i), commonly referred to
as the Pitman-Robertson Act. Under
these acts, as amended, we provide
approximately $800 million in grants
annually to States for projects that
support sport fish and wildlife
management and restoration, including:
• Improvement of fish and wildlife
habitats,
• Fishing and boating access,
• Fish stocking, and
• Hunting and fishing opportunities.
We also provide grants for aquatic
education and hunter education,
maintenance of completed projects, and
research into problems affecting fish
and wildlife resources. These projects
help to ensure that the American people
have adequate opportunities for fish and
wildlife recreation.
We conduct the survey about every 5
years. The 2011 FHWAR will be the
12th conducted since 1955. We sponsor
the survey at the States’ request, which
is made through the Association of Fish
and Wildlife Agencies. The Census
Bureau collects the information using
computer-assisted telephone or inperson interviews. The Census Bureau
will select a sample of sportspersons
and wildlife watchers from a household
screen and conduct three detailed
interviews during the survey year. The
survey collects information on the
number of days of participation, species
of animals sought, and expenditures for
trips and equipment. Information on the
characteristics of participants includes
age, income, sex, education, race, and
residency.
Comments: On February 8, 2010, we
published in the Federal Register (75
FR 6216) a notice of our intent to
request that OMB renew this ICR. In that
notice, we solicited comments for 60
days, ending on April 9, 2010. We did
not receive any comments.
We again invite comments concerning
this information collection on:
• Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary, including
whether or not the information will
have practical utility;
• The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information;

• Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your
address, phone number, e-mail address,
or other personal identifying
information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire
comment, including your personal

you can ask OMB in your comment to
withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that it will be done.
