Abstract: The Endangered Species Act
(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) makes it
unlawful to import or export fish,
wildlife, or plants without filing a
declaration or report deemed necessary
for enforcing the Act or upholding the
Convention on International Trade in
Endangered Species (CITES) (see 16
U.S.C. 1538(e)). With a few exceptions,
businesses, individuals, or government
agencies importing into or exporting
from the United States any fish,
wildlife, or wildlife product must
complete and submit to the Service an
FWS Form 3–177 (Declaration for
Importation or Exportation of Fish or
Wildlife). This form as well as FWS
Form 3–177a (Continuation Sheet) and
instructions for completion are available
for electronic submission at https://
edecs.fws.gov. These forms are also
available in fillable format at http://
www.fws.gov/forms/.
The information that we collect is
unique to each wildlife shipment and
enables us to:
• Accurately inspect the contents of
the shipment;
• Enforce any regulations that pertain
to the fish, wildlife, or wildlife products
contained in the shipment; and
• Maintain records of the importation
and exportation of these commodities.
Businesses or individuals must file
FWS Forms 3–177 and 3–177a with us
at the time and port where they request
clearance of the import or export of
wildlife or wildlife products. Our
regulations allow for certain species of
wildlife to be imported or exported
between the United States and Canada
or Mexico at U.S. Customs and Border
Protection ports, even though our
wildlife inspectors may not be present.
In these instances, importers and
exporters may file the forms with U.S.
Customs and Border Protection. We
collect the following information:
(1) Name of the importer or exporter
and broker.

VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001

(2) Scientific and common name of
the fish or wildlife.
(3) Permit numbers (if permits are
required).
(4) Description, quantity, and value of
the fish or wildlife.
(5) Natural country of origin of the
fish or wildlife.
In addition, certain information, such
as the airway bill or bill of lading
number, the location of the shipment
containing the fish or wildlife for
inspection, and the number of cartons
containing fish or wildlife, assists our
wildlife inspectors if a physical
examination of the shipment is
necessary.
In October 2012, we requested that
OMB approve, on an emergency basis,
our request to collect information
associated with a user fee exemption
program for low-risk importations and
exportations. OMB approved our
request and assigned OMB Control No.
1018–0152, which expires April 30,
2013.
Businesses that possess a valid
Service import/export license may
request to participate in this fee
exemption program through our
electronic filing system (eDecs).
Qualified licensees must create an eDecs
filer account as an importer or exporter
if they do not already have one and file
their required documents electronically.
To be an approved participating
business in the program and receive an
exemption from the designated port
base inspection fee, the licensed
business must certify that it will
exclusively import or export nonliving
wildlife that is not listed as injurious
under 50 CFR part 16 and does not
require a permit or certificate under 50
CFR parts 15 (Wild Bird Conservation
Act), 17 (Endangered Species Act), 18
(Marine Mammal Protection Act), 20
(Migratory Bird Treaty Act), 21
(Migratory Bird Treaty Act), 22 (Bald
and Golden Eagle Protection Act), or 23

(the Convention on International Trade
in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna
and Flora). The requesting business also
must certify that it will exclusively
import or export the above type of
wildlife shipments where the quantity
in each shipment of wildlife parts or
products is 25 or fewer and the total
value of each wildlife shipment is
$5,000 or less. Any licensed business
that has more than two wildlife
shipments that were refused clearance
in the 5 years prior to its request is not
eligible for the program. In addition, any
licensees that have been assessed a civil
penalty, issued a Notice of Violation, or
convicted of a misdemeanor or felony
violation involving wildlife import or
export will not be eligible to participate
in the program.
We are incorporating the certification
statement for the user fee exemption
program into our renewal of OMB
Control No. 1018–0012. If OMB
approves this renewal, we will
discontinue OMB Control No. 1018–
0152.
Comments: On October 3, 2012, we
published in the Federal Register (77
FR 60454) a notice of our intent to
request that OMB renew approval for
OMB Control No. 1018–0012. In that
notice, we solicited comments for 60
days, ending on December 3, 2012. No
comments were received in response to
that notice. On October 26, 2012, we
published an interim rule (77 FR 65321)
announcing the user fee exemption
program. In that rule, we solicited
comments for 60 days on the
information collection requirements,
ending on December 26, 2012. We
received two comments. One
commenter recommended changes in
the criteria for the fee exemption
program. The other commenter objected
to the fee waiver. The commenters did
not address the information collection
requirements, and we did not make any
changes to the information collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:

I. Abstract
The Captive Wildlife Safety Act
(CWSA) amends the Lacey Act by
making it illegal to import, export, buy,
sell, transport, receive, or acquire, in
interstate or foreign commerce, live
lions, tigers, leopards, snow leopards,
clouded leopards, cheetahs, jaguars, or
cougars, or any hybrid combination of
any of these species, unless certain
exceptions are met. There are several
exemptions to the prohibitions of the
CWSA, including accredited wildlife
sanctuaries.
There is no requirement for wildlife
sanctuaries to submit applications to
qualify for the accredited wildlife
sanctuary exemption. Wildlife
sanctuaries themselves will determine if
they qualify. To qualify, they must meet
all of the following criteria:
• Approval by the United States
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as a
corporation that is exempt from taxation
under section 501(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, which is
described in sections 501(c)(3) and
170(b)(1)(A)(vi) of that code.
• Do not engage in commercial trade
in the prohibited wildlife species,
including offspring, parts, and products.
• Do not propagate the prohibited
wildlife species.
• Have no direct contact between the
public and the prohibited wildlife
species.
The basis for this information
collection is the recordkeeping
requirement that we place on accredited
wildlife sanctuaries. We require
accredited wildlife sanctuaries to
maintain complete and accurate records
of any possession, transportation,
acquisition, disposition, importation, or
exportation of the prohibited wildlife
species as defined in the CWSA (50 CFR
part 14, subpart K). Records must be up
to date and include: (1) the names and
addresses of persons to or from whom
any prohibited wildlife species has been

PO 00000

Frm 00074

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

acquired, imported, exported,
purchased, sold, or otherwise
transferred; and (2) the dates of these
transactions. Accredited wildlife
sanctuaries must:
• Maintain these records for 5 years.
• Make these records accessible to
Service officials for inspection at
reasonable hours.
• Copy these records for Service
officials, if requested.

• Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
