SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation is
available at http://www.reginfo.gov.
Therefore, in preparation for OMB
review and approval of the following

Frm 00043
Fmt 4703

information collection, TSA is soliciting
comments to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 44917, TSA has
authority to provide for deployment of
Federal Air Marshals (FAMs) on
passenger flights and provide for
appropriate training, equipping, and
supervision of FAMs. In furtherance of
this authority, TSA policy requires that
applicants for the Office of Law
Enforcement/Federal Air Marshal
Service positions meet certain medical
and mental health standards.
In order to evaluate whether
applicants meet TSA standards,
applicants must undergo a
psychological evaluation determining
that they do not have an established
medical history or clinical diagnosis of
psychosis, neurosis, or any other
personality or mental disorder that
clearly demonstrates a potential hazard
to the performance of FAM duties or the
safety of self or others. As part of the
psychological evaluation, applicants are
required to complete a certification form
regarding their mental health history
and provide an explanation for anything
they cannot certify. Applicants will be
asked whether they can certify various
statements including that they have
never been removed from work for
medical or psychological reasons.
Upon completion, applicants submit
the certification form directly to the
FAMS’ Medical Programs Section
(FAMS MPS) for initial screening via
fax, electronic upload via scanning
document, mail, or in person. The
FAMS MPS screens all certification
forms received. Any explanations for
uncertified items received will generally
require further review and follow-up by
a personal psychologist or psychiatrist.
This certification is carefully geared to
capitalize on other elements of the
assessment process, such as personal
interviews, physical task assessment,
background investigation, as well as the
other components of the medical

examination and assessment. TSA
estimates that there will be 600
respondents annually.
It will take each respondent
approximately one hour to complete the
certification form for a total annual hour
burden of 600 hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 9 of the ESA prohibits ‘‘take’’
of fish and wildlife species listed as
endangered or threatened. Under the
ESA, the term ‘‘take’’ means to harass,
harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill,
trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to
engage in any such conduct (16 U.S.C.
1532(19)). The term ‘‘harm,’’ as defined
in our regulations, includes significant
habitat modification or degradation that
results in death or injury to listed
species by significantly impairing
essential behavioral patterns, including
breeding, feeding, or sheltering (50 CFR
17.3). The term ‘‘harass’’ is defined in
our regulations as an intentional or
negligent act or omission which creates
the likelihood of injury to wildlife by
annoying it to such an extent as to
significantly disrupt normal behavioral
patterns, which include, but are not
limited to, breeding, feeding, or
sheltering (50 CFR 17.3).
Under specified circumstances, the
Service may issue permits that authorize
take of federally listed species, provided
the take is incidental to, but not the
purpose of, an otherwise lawful activity.
Regulations governing permits for
PO 00000
Frm 00044
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
endangered and threatened species are
at 50 CFR 17.22 and 17.32, respectively.
Section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Act contains
provisions that authorize the Service to
issue permits to non-Federal entities for
the take of endangered and threatened
species, provided the following criteria
are met:
(1) The taking will be incidental;
(2) The applicant will prepare a
conservation plan that, to the maximum
extent practicable, minimize and
mitigate the impact of such taking;
(3) The applicant will ensure that
adequate funding for the plan will be
provided;
(4) The taking will not appreciably
reduce the likelihood of the survival
and recovery of the species in the wild;
and
(5) The applicant will carry out any
other measures that the Service may
require as being necessary or
appropriate for the purposes of the plan.
We have received an application from
the Meier Group, LLC (applicant) for an
incidental take permit pursuant to
Section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Endangered
Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA).
The applicant requests a permit with a
5-year term that would authorize ‘‘take’’
of the threatened Olympia pocket
gopher (Thomomys mazama pugetensis)
incidental to otherwise lawful land
development and habitat conservation
activities on land they own in Thurston
County, Washington. The application
includes a draft HCP, which describes
the actions the applicant will take to
minimize and mitigate the impacts of
the take on the covered species. The
Service also announces the availability
of a draft environmental assessment
(EA) addressing the draft HCP and
proposed permit. We invite comments
from all interested parties regarding the
permit application, including the draft
HCP and the draft EA.
Proposed Action
The applicant proposes to develop an
approximately 6.4-acre property in the
City of Tumwater, Thurston County,
Washington, over the course of the next
5 years. The proposed project would
entail clearing most of the 6.4-acre
property of trees and other vegetation,
including the invasive non-native Scot’s
broom (Cytisus scoparius), in
preparation for construction of a twostory commercial office building and
associated facilities. The proposed office
building, paved surfaces, and parking
areas would cover all of the property
except an approximately 0.7-acre area
that would be avoided to prevent
impacts to guy-wires associated with
overhead electric transmission lines.
