SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
The National Wildlife Refuge System
Administration Act of 1966 (16 U.S.C.
668dd–668ee), as amended
(Administration Act), and the Refuge
Recreation Act of 1962 (16 U.S.C. 460k–
460k–4) (Recreation Act) govern the
administration and uses of national
wildlife refuges and wetland
management districts. The
Administration Act consolidated all the
different refuge areas into a single
Refuge System. It also authorizes us to
permit public uses, including hunting
and fishing, on lands of the Refuge
System when we find that the activity
is compatible and appropriate with the
purpose for which the refuge was
established. The Recreation Act allows
the use of refuges for public recreation
when the use is not inconsistent or does

not interfere with the primary
purpose(s) of the refuge.
We administer 373 hunting programs
and 271 fishing programs on 408 refuges
and wetland management districts. We
only collect user information at about 20
percent of these refuges. Information
that we plan to collect will help us:
• Administer and monitor hunting
and fishing programs on refuges.
• Distribute hunting and fishing
permits in a fair and equitable manner
to eligible participants.
We use nine application and report
forms associated with hunting and
fishing on refuges. We may not allow all
opportunities on all refuges; therefore,
we developed different forms to
simplify the process and avoid
confusion for applicants. The currently
approved forms are available online at
http://www.fws.gov/forms/. Not all
refuges will use each form and some
refuges may collect the identical
information in a nonform format.
We use the following application
forms when we assign areas, dates, and/
or types of hunts via a drawing because
of limited resources, high demand, or
when a permit is needed to hunt. We
issue application forms for specific
periods, usually seasonally or annually.
• FWS Form 3–2354 (Quota Deer
Hunt Application).
• FWS Form 3–2355 (Waterfowl
Lottery Application).
• FWS Form 3–2356 (Big/Upland
Game Hunt Application).
• FWS Form 3–2357 (Migratory Bird
Hunt Application).
• FWS Form 3–2358 (Fishing/
Shrimping/Crabbing Application).
We collect information on:
• Applicant (name, address, phone
number) so that we can notify
applicants of their selection.
• User preferences (dates, areas,
method) so that we can distribute users
equitably.
• Whether or not the applicant is
applying for a special opportunity for
disabled or youth hunters.

• Age of youth hunter(s) so that we
can establish eligibility.
We ask users to report on their
success after their experience so that we
can evaluate hunting/fishing quality and
resource impacts. We use the following
activity reports, which we distribute
during appropriate seasons, as
determined by State or Federal
regulations.
• FWS Form 3–2359 (Big Game
Harvest Report).
• FWS Form 3–2360 (Fishing Report).
• FWS Form 3–2361 (Migratory Bird
Hunt Report).
• FWS Form 3–2362 (Upland/Small
Game/Furbearer Report).
We collect information on:
• Names of users so we can
differentiate between responses.
• City and State of residence so that
we can better understand if users are
local or traveling.
• Dates, time, and number in party so
we can identify use trends and allocate
staff and resources.
• Details of success by species so that
we can evaluate quality of experience
and resource impacts.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
We collect information on FWS Form
3–2349 (Alaska Guide Service
Evaluation) to help us evaluate
commercial guide services on our
national wildlife refuges in the State of
Alaska (State). The National Wildlife
Refuge Administration Act of 1966, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 668dd–ee),
authorizes us to permit uses, including
commercial visitor services, on national
wildlife refuges when we find the
activity to be compatible with the
purposes for which the refuge was
established. With the objective of
making available a variety of quality
visitor services for wildlife-dependent
recreation on National Wildlife Refuge
System lands, we issue permits for
commercial guide services, including
big game hunting, sport fishing, wildlife
viewing, river trips, and other guided
activities. We use FWS Form 3–2349 as
a method to:
• Monitor the quality of services
provided by commercial guides.
• Gauge client satisfaction with the
services.
• Assess the impacts of the activity
on refuge resources.
The client is the best source of
information on the quality of
commercial guiding services. We
collect:
• Client name.
• Guide name(s).
• Type of guided activity.
• Dates and location of guided
activity.
• Information on the services
received such as the client’s
expectations, safety, environmental

PO 00000

impacts, and client’s overall
satisfaction.
We encourage respondents to provide
any additional comments that they wish
regarding the guide service or refuge
experience, and ask whether or not they
wish to be contacted for additional
information.
The above information, in
combination with State-required guide
activity reports and contacts with guides
and clients in the field, provides a
comprehensive method for monitoring
permitted commercial guide activities.
A regular program of client evaluation
helps refuge managers detect potential
problems with guide services so that we
can take corrective actions promptly. In
addition, we use this information during
the competitive selection process for big
game and sport fishing guide permits to
evaluate an applicant’s ability to
provide a quality guiding service.
