A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Strategies for Removing the Regulatory
Impediments to the Financing and
Siting of Factory-Built Housing in
American Communities.
OMB Approval Number: 2528-New.
Type of Request: New.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: To
assess the cost-effectiveness of factorybuilt housing as a potential affordable
housing option in urban and suburban
communities, HUD seeks to better
understand the regulatory barriers
preventing or limiting the use of factorybuilt housing. This study is framed by

Frequency of
response

Responses

Burden hour
per response

the general research question: What are
the main drivers or barriers to the
financing, siting and development of
factory-built housing systems in various
communities? A significant portion of
the work of this study will involve
identifying the types of barriers, their
potential impact (or stringency), and
their use in various communities. This
process will involve research on several
different communities in order to
develop a typology of different barriers,
catalog the community contexts where
different barriers are more prevalent,
and develop opportunity cost estimates
of different barriers in different
contexts. Information will be collected
online and by telephone from local land
use planning officials and
manufacturers and dealers of factorybuilt housing to help determine the
extent to which regulatory barriers limit
the development of factory-built
housing systems as an affordable
housing option.

PRAMain.
In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we
provide the general public and other
Federal agencies with an opportunity to
comment on new, proposed, revised,
and continuing collections of
information. This helps us assess the
impact of our information collection
requirements and minimize the public’s
reporting burden. It also helps the
public understand our information
collection requirements and provide the
requested data in the desired format.
On April 2, 2020, we published in the
Federal Register (85 FR 18532) a
proposed rule to begin the process of
establishing migratory bird hunting
regulations for certain Tribes on Federal
Indian reservations, off-reservation trust
lands, and ceded lands for the 2020–21
migratory bird hunting season. That
Federal Register document also
contained notice of our intent to request
that OMB approve this related
information collection. In that notice,
we solicited comments for 60 days,
ending on June 1, 2020. We did not
receive any comments in response to
that proposed rule.
Additionally, on May 1, 2020, the
Migratory Bird Program shared the
proposed rule document with the
Flyway Council representatives to
solicit their feedback on the information
collection requirements. We extended
the comment period for the Flyway
Councils to provide comments until
October 30, 2020, so that they could
share the information during their
annual August/September Flyway
Council meetings. We did not receive
any comments in response to that
additional comment opportunity.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we are again soliciting
comments from the public and other
Federal agencies on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that
is described below. We are especially
interested in public comment
addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper

performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
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 us in your comment to
withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Abstract: Migratory game birds are
those bird species so designated in
conventions between the United States
and several foreign nations for the
protection and management of these
birds. Under the Migratory Bird Treaty
Act (16 U.S.C. 703–712), the Secretary
of the Interior is authorized to
determine when ‘‘hunting, taking,
capture, killing, possession, sale,
purchase, shipment, transportation,
carriage, or export of any * * * bird, or
any part, nest, or egg’’ of migratory game
birds can take place, and to adopt
regulations for this purpose. These
regulations are written after giving due
regard to ‘‘the zones of temperature and
to the distribution, abundance,
economic value, breeding habits, and
times and lines of migratory flight of
such birds’’ and are updated annually
(16 U.S.C. 704(a)). This responsibility
has been delegated to the Service as the
lead Federal agency for managing and
conserving migratory birds in the
United States. However, migratory game
bird management is a cooperative effort
of State, Tribal, and Federal
governments. Migratory game bird
hunting seasons provide opportunities
for recreation and sustenance; aid
Federal, State, and Tribal governments
in the management of migratory game
birds; and permit harvests at levels
compatible with migratory game bird

population status and habitat
conditions.
The Service develops migratory game
bird hunting regulations by establishing
the frameworks, or outside limits, for
season lengths, bag limits, and areas for
migratory game bird hunting.
Acknowledging regional differences in
hunting conditions, the Service has
administratively divided the Nation into
four Flyways for the primary purpose of
managing migratory game birds. Each
Flyway (Atlantic, Mississippi, Central,
and Pacific) has a Flyway Council, a
formal organization generally composed
of one member from each State and
Province in that Flyway. The Flyway
Councils, established through the
Association of Fish and Wildlife
Agencies, also assist in researching and
providing migratory game bird
management information for Federal,
State, and Provincial governments, as
well as private conservation entities and
the general public.
We request the following information
to establish annual migratory bird
hunting seasons:
Information Requested To Establish
Annual Migratory Bird Hunting
Seasons
As a result of the incremental annual
rulemaking process explained above,
the information requested from States is
solicited during a different point in the
overall rulemaking process than the
information requested from Tribal
governments. However, the final rules
published at the end of the rulemaking
process each year incorporate all
information received from the State and
Tribal governments. Therefore, this ICR
incorporates both the annual requests
for Tribal proposals in the proposed
rules and the information requested
annually from the States during
subsequent proposed rules (all under
the same Regulatory Identifier Number;
we post all rules electronically on the
Service’s website (https://www.fws.gov/
policy/frsystem/default.cfm). State and
Tribal governments are aware of this
process that affords them the
opportunity to provide comments on the
information collection requirements
identified in the PRA section of each
rule.
The information identified below,
necessary to establish annual migratory
bird hunting seasons, is solicited
annually from State (including U.S.
territory) and Tribal governments. The
required information, received at
various times in the year prior to the
actual hunting season as part of the
rulemaking process described above, is
used by the Service as part of the final
rulemaking process necessary to open

Details Needed From States and U.S.
Territories

Atlantic Flyway Council

State and U.S. territory governments
that wish to establish annual migratory
game bird hunting seasons are required
to provide the requested dates and other
details for hunting seasons in their
respective States or Territories. The
information is provided to the Service
in a non-form format, usually via letter
or spreadsheet, in response to
solicitations for the information sent to
the State governments each year via an
emailed letter and as part of the first
final rule (for the frameworks).
Details Needed From Tribal
Governments
Tribes that wish to use the guidelines
(published June 4, 1985, 50 FR 23459—
copy uploaded to ROCIS) to establish
special hunting regulations for the
annual migratory game bird hunting
season are required to submit a proposal
that includes:

khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES

(1) The requested migratory game bird
hunting season dates and other details
regarding the proposed regulations;
(2) Harvest anticipated under the
proposed regulations; and
(3) Tribal capabilities to enforce
migratory game bird hunting
regulations.
For those situations where it could be
shown that failure to limit Tribal
harvest could seriously impact the
migratory game bird resource, we also
request information on the methods
employed to monitor harvest and any
potential steps taken to limit level of
harvest.
A Tribe that desires the earliest
possible opening of the migratory game
bird season for nontribal members
should specify this request in its
proposal, rather than request a date that
might not be within the final Federal
frameworks. Similarly, unless a Tribe
wishes to set more restrictive
regulations than Federal regulations will
permit for nontribal members, the
proposal should request the same daily
bag and possession limits and season
length for migratory game birds that
Federal regulations are likely to permit
the States in the Flyway in which the
reservation is located.
Reports (50 CFR part 20): The
following reports are requested from the
States and are submitted either annually
or every 3 years as explained in the
following text.

concern. Others are used to determine
overall harvest for those species and/or
areas that are not sampled well by our
overall harvest surveys due to either the
limited nature/area of the hunt or
season, or where the harvest needs to

reports are used to determine whether
the experimental season is achieving its
intended goals and objectives, without
causing unintended harm to other
species and ultimately whether the
experimental season should proceed to
operational status. Most experimental
seasons are 3-year trials with yearly
reports and a final report. Most of the
