potential persons who are to respond to
the collection of information that such
persons are not required to respond to
the collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
Forest Service
Title: Fire and Aviation Management
Medical Qualifications Program.
OMB Control Number: 0596–0164.
Summary of Collection: The
Protection Act of 1922 (16 U.S.C. 594)
authorizes the Forest Service (FS) to
fight fires on National Forest System
lands. Title 5 CFR, Part 339, authorizes
the FS to establish medical qualification
standards and require pre-appointment
medical examinations, regular recurring
periodic examinations after
appointment, and whenever there is a
direct question about a firefighter’s
continued ability to meet the medical
qualification standards. The information
collected pertains to an individual’s
health status and health history. The
collection of this information and use
thereof are consistent with the
provisions of 5 U.S.C. 552a (Privacy Act
of 1974).
Need and Use of the Information:
Individuals seeking recertification or
employment as a new firefighter with
the FS or Department of Interior (DOI)
must complete the Health Screening
Questionnaire (HSQ). FS and DOI will
collect information from potential
applicants using forms FS–5100–30,
Work Capacity Test Informed Consent
and FS–5100–31, Health Screening
Questionnaire. Applicants will also
need to complete the Wildland
Firefighter Medical Qualifications
Program Medical Exam and a SelfCertification Statement and Blood
Pressure Check. Wildland firefighters
perform long hours of arduous labor in
adverse conditions. The information
collected is used to determine whether
an individual being considered for a
position can carry out those duties in a
manner that will not place the candidate
or coworkers unduly at risk due to
inadequate physical fitness and health.
If the information is not collected, the
Government’s liability risk is high,
special needs of an individual may not
be known, or the screening of an
applicant’s physical suitability would
be greatly inhibited.
Description of Respondents:
Individuals or households.
Number of Respondents: 34,637.
