administers the following financial
assistance programs in whole or in part.
We award most financial assistance as
grants, but cooperative agreements are
possible if the Federal Government will
be substantially involved in carrying out
the project. You can find a description
of most programs in the Catalog of
Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) or

a totally mandatory program or has a mandatory subprogram.

Some grants are mandatory and
receive funds according to a formula set
by law or policy. Other grants are
discretionary and we award them based
on a competitive process. Mandatory
grant recipients must give us specific,
detailed project information during the
application process so that we may
ensure that projects are eligible for the
mandatory funding, are substantial in
character and design, and comply with
all applicable Federal laws. All grantees
must submit financial and performance
reports that contain information
necessary for us to track costs and
accomplishments and according to
schedules and rules in 43 CFR 12. The
Office of Management and Budget has
approved our collection of information
for applications and performance
reports for these programs and assigned
OMB Control Nos. 1018–0109 and
1018–0147.

Currently, grantees send written
performance reports to the Service. We
extract information and enter data into
the Federal Assistance Information
Management System (FAIMS). However,
FAIMS will be decommissioned on
October 1, 2012, and we intend to
replace it with a new electronic system
for data collection (Wildlife Tracking
and Reporting Actions for the
Conservation of Species (Wildlife
TRACS)) by January 1, 2013. Wildlife
TRACS will allow us to take advantage
of newer technology and give grantees
direct access to enter data and
accomplishments. We will train State,
tribal, commonwealth, territory, and
District of Columbia personnel to use
the new system, and we will also lend
technical and administrative support.
Allowing applicants and grantees to
enter information directly into Wildlife
TRACS will provide more accurate
reporting and allow us to process grant

PO 00000

funds more efficiently. We will continue
to enter information in Wildlife TRACS
for some grantees or programs; e.g.,
those who do not have sufficient
technology or grant programs with
minimal participation.
We plan to collect additional
information not covered by our current
OMB approvals. In addition, our current
approvals do not cover data entry in
Wildlife TRACS by applicants and
grantees. We will request that OMB
assign a new control number to cover
these actions.
For mandatory grant program
applications and amendments, we plan
to collect:
• Geospatial entry of project location.
• Project status (active, completed,
etc.).
• Project leader contact information.
• Partner information.
• Goals, including output measures
and desired future values.

• Plan information (for projects
connected to plans).
For all WSFR grant program reports,
we plan to collect:
• Geospatial entry of action location.
• Action status (active, completed,
etc.).
• Information beyond summary of
land costs and title vesting evidence (for
land acquisition projects).
• Current year data point(s) on trend
line graph if there are 3 or more years
(for survey projects).
• Estimated costs, by action.
• Effectiveness measures (mandatory
for State Wildlife Grants).
The table below shows the additional
time that will be required to obtain and
enter the information when we
implement Wildlife TRACS. We expect
that this time will decrease as grantees
become familiar with the system. We

also expect to reduce the burden
currently approved under OMB Control
Nos. 1018–0109 and 1018–0147 for
reports. When grantees directly enter
reporting information into Wildlife
TRACS, they will not be required to
submit written reports.

certain grant programs, institutions of
higher education and nongovernmental
organizations may also apply.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain a benefit.
Frequency of Collection: We require
applications annually for new grants or
as needed for multi-year grants. We
require amendments on occasion when
key elements of a project change. We
require quarterly and final performance
reports in the National Outreach and
Communication Program and annual
and final performance reports in the
other programs. We may require more
frequent reports under the conditions
stated at 43 CFR 12.52 and 43 CFR
12.914.

We 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. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this IC. Before
including your address, phone number,
email address, or other personal
identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment, including your
personal identifying information, may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
