wildlife, or when concentrated in such
numbers and manner as to constitute a
health hazard or other nuisance.’’
All persons or entities acting under
this depredation order must provide an
annual report containing the following
information for each species:
• Number of birds taken.
• Months and years in which the
birds were taken.
• State(s) and county(ies) in which
the birds were taken.
• General purpose for which the birds
were taken (such as for protection of
agriculture, human health and safety,
property, or natural resources).
We collect this information so that we
will be able to determine how many
birds of each species are taken each year
and whether the control actions are
likely to affect the populations of those
species.
Comments: On July 1, 2013, we
published in the Federal Register (78
FR 39309) a notice of our intent to
request that OMB renew approval for
this information collection. In that
notice, we solicited comments for 60
days, ending on August 30, 2013. We
received two comments. One
commenter objected to the killing of
birds and funding for the Animal and
Plant Health Inspection Service,
Wildlife Services. The other commenter
stated that the State of Wyoming has no
records for the species covered by the
depredation order. The commenters did
not address the information collection
requirements, and we did not make any
changes to our requirements.
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, 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 OMB in your comment to

information from public review, we

ACTION: Notice; request for comments.
AGENCY:

We (U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service) will ask the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
renew approval for the information
collection (IC) described below. As
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 and as part of our
continuing efforts to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, we invite the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on this IC. This IC is
scheduled to expire on February 28,
2014. We may not conduct or sponsor
and a person is not required to respond
to a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
DATES: To ensure that we are able to
consider your comments on this IC, we
must receive them by January 6, 2014.
ADDRESSES: Send your comments on the
IC to the Service Information Collection
Clearance Officer, U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, MS 2042–PDM, 4401
North Fairfax Drive, Arlington, VA
22203 (mail); or [email protected]

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
The Lacey Act (18 U.S.C. 42) (Act)
prohibits the possession or importation

PO 00000

Frm 00080

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

of any animal or plant deemed to be and
prescribed by regulation to be injurious
to:
• Human beings;
• The interests of agriculture,
horticulture, and forestry; or
• Wildlife or the wildlife resources of
the United States.
The Department of the Interior is
charged with enforcement of this Act.
The Act and regulations at 50 CFR part
16 allow for the importation of animals
classified as injurious if specific criteria
are met. To effectively carry out
responsibilities and protect the aquatic
resources of the United States, we must
gather information on the animals being
imported with regard to their source,
destination, and health status. It is also
imperative that we ensure the
qualifications of those individuals who
provide the fish health data and sign the
health certificate upon which we base
our decision to allow importation.
We use three forms to collect this
information:
(1) FWS Form 3–2273 (Title 50
Certifying Official Form). New
applicants and those seeking
recertification as a title 50 certifying
official provide information so that we
can assess their qualifications.
(2) FWS Form 3–2274 (U.S. Title 50
Certification Form). Certifying officials
use this form or their own health
certificate to affirm the health status of
the fish or their reproductive products
to be imported.
(3) FWS Form 3–2275 (Title 50
Importation Request Form). We use the
information on this form to ensure the
safety of the shipment and to track and
control importations.
II. Data

Title: Injurious Wildlife; Importation
