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 will be
available at http://www.reginfo.gov
upon its submission to OMB. Therefore,
in preparation for OMB review and
approval of the following 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.
Consistent with the requirements of
Executive Order (E.O.) 13771, Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory
Costs, and E.O. 13777, Enforcing the
Regulatory Reform Agenda, TSA is also
requesting comments on the extent to
which this request for information could

Information Collection Requirement
Title: Surface Transportation
Stakeholder Survey.
Type of Request: New collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652–NEW.
Form(s): NA.
Affected Public: Stakeholders
responsible for securing surface
transportation assets.
Abstract: Section 1983(a) of the FAA
Reauthorization Act of 2018 (H.R. 302,
Pub. L. 115–254, 132 Stat. 3186, Oct. 5,
2018) (the ‘‘Act’’) directs the Secretary
of Homeland Security to conduct a
survey of public and private
stakeholders responsible for securing
surface transportation assets regarding
resource challenges, including the
availability of Federal funding
associated with securing such assets
that provides an opportunity for
respondents to set forth information on
specific unmet security needs. The Act
also requires reporting to the
appropriate congressional committees
regarding the survey results and the
efforts of DHS to address any identified
security vulnerabilities. This report
must be submitted within 120 days of
beginning the required survey.
As memorialized in a memorandum
of understanding between the Federal
Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) and TSA, TSA supports the
grant process for surface transportation
through numerous activities, including
stakeholder outreach and soliciting
feedback for program improvements
from surface transportation security
partners. Consistent with the above
authorities and agreements with FEMA,
TSA is now seeking approval to conduct
the survey.
Number of Respondents: 641.

Background
Recovery of endangered or threatened
animals and plants to the point where
they are again secure, self-sustaining
members of their ecosystems is a
primary goal of our endangered species
program and the Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (Act; 16 U.S.C.
1531 et seq.). Recovery means
improvement of the status of listed
species to the point at which listing is
no longer necessary under the criteria
specified in section 4(a)(1) of the Act.
The Act requires the development of
recovery plans for listed species, unless
such a plan would not promote the
conservation of a particular species.
Pursuant to section 4(f) of the Act, a
recovery plan must, to the maximum
extent practicable, include (1) a
description of site-specific management
actions as may be necessary to achieve
the plan’s goals for the conservation and
survival of the species; (2) objective,
measurable criteria which, when met,
would support a determination under
section 4(a)(1) that the species should be
removed from the List of Endangered
and Threatened Species; and (3)
estimates of the time and costs required
to carry out those measures needed to
achieve the plan’s goal and to achieve
intermediate steps toward that goal.
The Service has revised its approach
to recovery planning; the revised
process is called Recovery Planning and
Implementation (RPI). The RPI process
is intended to reduce the time needed
to develop and implement recovery
plans, increase recovery plan relevancy
over a longer timeframe, and add
flexibility to recovery plans so they can
be adjusted to new information or
circumstances. Under RPI, a recovery
plan will include statutorily required
elements (objective, measurable criteria;
site-specific management actions; and
estimates of time and costs), along with
a concise introduction and our strategy
for how we plan to achieve species
recovery. The RPI recovery plan is
supported by a separate Species Status
Assessment, or in cases such as this one,
a species biological report that provides
the background information and threat
assessment, which are key to recovery
plan development. The essential
component to flexible implementation
under RPI is producing a separate
working document called the Recovery
Implementation Strategy
(implementation strategy). The
implementation strategy steps down
from the more general description of
actions described in the recovery plan to
detail the specific, near-term activities
needed to implement the recovery plan.
The implementation strategy will be

PO 00000

Frm 00056

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

adaptable by being able to incorporate
new information without having to
concurrently revise the recovery plan,
unless changes to statutory elements are
required.
The Service listed Astragalus
magdalenae var. peirsonii (Peirson’s
milk-vetch) as threatened in 1998 (63 FR
53596, October 6, 1998), and critical
habitat was revised for the species in
2008 (73 FR 8747, February 14, 2008).
Astragalus magdalenae var. peirsonii is
a perennial member of the legume
family. It has a long tap root that can
penetrate deep into the sand to reach
moisture and functions as an anchor for
the plant in shifting sands. The plant
has delicate pale purple flowers and
produces large fruits containing seeds.
Plants may flower in their first year and
produce between one and five fruits,
while older plants produce significantly
more fruits.
Historically, Astragalus magdalenae
var. peirsonii was found in Sonoran
Desert dune environments in
southeastern California, and in Sonora,
Mexico. In the United States, it is
currently restricted to the western
portion of the Algodones Dunes of
eastern Imperial County, California.
This taxon occurs within about 53,000
acres (ac) (21,500 hectares (ha)) in a
narrow band running 40 miles (mi) (64
kilometers (km)) northwest to southeast
along the western portion of the dunes.
Nearly all of the lands in the Algodones
Dunes are managed by the Bureau of
Land Management as the Imperial Sand
Dunes Recreation Area (ISDRA). Within
active dunes, the primary habitat for A.
m. var. peirsonii is found on west and/
or northwest-facing sides of bowls,
swales, and slopes consisting of Rositas
fine sands.
Astragalus magdalenae var. peirsonii
is impacted by destruction of
individuals and dune habitat from offhighway vehicle use and associated
recreational development within the
ISDRA.
Recovery Strategy
The purpose of a recovery plan is to
provide a framework for the recovery of
a species so that protection under the
Act is no longer necessary. A recovery
plan includes scientific information
about the species and provides criteria
that enable us to gauge whether
downlisting or delisting the species is
warranted. Furthermore, recovery plans
help guide our recovery efforts by
describing actions we consider
necessary for each species’ conservation
and by estimating time and costs for
implementing needed recovery
measures.
