Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 227 / Tuesday, November 24, 2020 / Notices
described in this notice, provided all of
the following conditions are met:
• A request for renewal is received no
later than 60 days prior to the needed
Renewal IHA effective date (recognizing
that the Renewal IHA expiration date
cannot extend beyond one year from
expiration of the initial IHA).
• The request for renewal must
include the following:
(1) An explanation that the activities
to be conducted under the requested
Renewal IHA are identical to the
activities analyzed under the initial
IHA, are a subset of the activities, or
include changes so minor (e.g.,
reduction in pile size) that the changes
do not affect the previous analyses,
mitigation and monitoring
requirements, or take estimates (with
the exception of reducing the type or
amount of take).
(2) A preliminary monitoring report
showing the results of the required
monitoring to date and an explanation
showing that the monitoring results do
not indicate impacts of a scale or nature
not previously analyzed or authorized.
Upon review of the request for
Renewal, the status of the affected
species or stocks, and any other
pertinent information, NMFS
determines that there are no more than
minor changes in the activities, the
mitigation and monitoring measures
will remain the same and appropriate,
and the findings in the initial IHA
remain valid.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA, Federal agencies must obtain
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for each collection
of information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of Information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, 44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A), requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, the CFTC is publishing
notice of the proposed collection of
information listed below.
With respect to the following
collection of information, the CFTC
invites comments on:
• Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information will have a practical use;
• The accuracy of the Commission’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed

collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
• Ways to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden of
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 responses.
Title: The Whistleblower Provision of
Section 23 of the Commodity Exchange
Act, OMB Control Number 3038–0082.
This is a request for extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: 17 CFR 165.3(a) requires the
submission of information to the
Commission on a Form TCR. The Form
TCR, ‘‘Tip, Complaint, or Referral,’’ and
the instructions thereto, are designed to
capture basic identifying information
about a complainant and elicit sufficient
information to determine whether the
conduct alleged suggests a violation of
the Commodity Exchange Act. 17 CFR
165.7(b)(1) requires the submission of
information to the Commission on a
Form WB–APP. The Form WB–APP,
‘‘Application for Award for Original
Information Provided Pursuant to
Section 23 of the Commodity Exchange
Act,’’ and the instructions thereto, are
designed to elicit sufficient information
to determine whether and to what
extent a claimant qualifies for a
whistleblower award.
You should submit only information
that you wish to make available
publicly. If you wish the Commission to
consider information that you believe is
exempt from disclosure under the
Freedom of Information Act, a petition
for confidential treatment of the exempt
information may be submitted according
to the procedures established in § 145.9
of the Commission’s regulations.1
The Commission reserves the right,
but shall have no obligation, to review,
pre-screen, filter, redact, refuse or
remove any or all of your submission
from http://www.cftc.gov that it may
deem to be inappropriate for
publication, such as obscene language.
All submissions that have been redacted
or removed that contain comments on
the merits of the Information Collection
Request will be retained in the public
comment file and will be considered as
required under the Administrative
Procedure Act and other applicable
laws, and may be accessible under the
Freedom of Information Act.
