FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jerome Ford, Assistant Director,
Migratory Birds, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, Department of the Interior,

20240; 202–208–1050; jerome_ford@

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service),
announce the availability of Birds of
Conservation Concern 2021. This
publication identifies species,
subspecies, and populations of
migratory birds in need of additional
conservation actions. Our goal in
publishing this list is to stimulate
coordinated, collaborative, and
proactive conservation actions among
Federal, International, State, Tribal, and
private partners.
The 1988 amendment to the Fish and
Wildlife Conservation Act of 1980
(FWCA; 16 U.S.C. 2901–2912) requires
the Secretary of the Interior, through the
Service, to ‘‘identify species, subspecies,
and populations of all migratory
nongame birds that, without additional
conservation actions, are likely to
become candidates for listing under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 1531–1543) [ESA].’’
16 U.S.C. 2912; Public Law 100–653,
802. Birds of Conservation Concern
2021 fulfills that mandate and
supersedes Birds of Conservation
Concern 2008 (74 FR 11128). The
overall purpose of the Birds of
Conservation Concern list is to identify,
by geography, those nongame migratory
birds in greatest need of conservation
attention. Thus, the species that appear
in Birds of Conservation Concern 2021
are deemed to be the highest priority for
conservation actions. We anticipate that
the document will be consulted by
Federal agencies and their partners prior
to undertaking cooperative research,
monitoring, and management actions
that might directly or indirectly affect
migratory birds.
The philosophy underlying the BCC
reports is that proactive bird
conservation is critical at a time when
continued human impacts will be
intensified by effects of a changing
climate. By investing in actions for
designated BCC taxa, we can prevent
further degradation to environments
that we all share, improve the odds for
successful long-term conservation, and
avoid the complexities associated with
federal ESA listing. Proactive
conservation is recognized as being

PO 00000

Frm 00044

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

more cost-effective than the recovery
efforts required once a bird is listed
under the ESA (e.g., Drechsler et al.
2011).
To serve as a broad early-warning
system in the context of the FWCA, this
list includes all of the species that we
consider to be of conservation concern.
Our objective in publishing the list is to
focus conservation attention on bird
species of concern well in advance of a
possible or plausible need to consider
them for listing under the ESA.
Inclusion on this list does not constitute
a finding that listing under the ESA is
warranted, or that substantial
information exists to indicate that
listing under the ESA may be warranted.
Many of the species on this list may
never have to be considered for ESA
listing, even if no additional
conservation actions are taken.
Authority
The authority for this notice is the
FWCA; the ESA; the Fish and Wildlife
Act of 1956, as amended (16 U.S.C. 742a
et seq.); and 16 U.S.C. 701.

60 days, ending on March 12, 2021. We
did not receive any comments in
response to that notice.
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 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

Abstract: The Lacey Act (Act, 18
U.S.C. 42) prohibits the importation of
any animal deemed to be and prescribed
by regulation to be injurious to:
• Human beings;
• The interests of agriculture,
horticulture, and forestry; or
• Wildlife or the wildlife resources of
the United States.
Implementation and enforcement of
the Lacey Act is the responsibility of the
Department of the Interior. The Service,
in concert with our diverse partners,
works to conserve, restore, and maintain
the nation’s fishery resources and
aquatic ecosystems for the benefit of the
American people, to include managing
and controlling four species of invasive
carp—bighead, black, grass, and silver—
native to Asia. Under the authority of
the Act, the Service listed bighead,
black, and silver carp species as
injurious wildlife to protect humans,
native wildlife, and wildlife resources
from the purposeful or accidental
introduction of invasive carp into the
nation’s aquatic ecosystems.
The Service takes part in a broad,
partner-driven approach to strategically
control the movement of Invasive carp.
The spread of these invasive species in
the nation’s river systems threatens the
conservation efforts conducted by our
agency, our State partners, and other
stakeholders, to promote self-sustaining
aquatic resources and healthy aquatic
ecosystems. In addition to widespread
and longstanding ecological
consequences, aquatic invasive species
often result in significant economic
losses and cost our nation’s economy
billions of dollars per year.
To effectively carry out our
responsibilities under the Act and
protect the aquatic resources of the
United States, the Service, in
collaboration with the U.S. Geological

Survey, proposes to administer
applications of Carbon Dioxide-Carp by
registered management partners
(applicators) and to collect information
regarding the usage of Carbon DioxideCarp, an Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) registered product #6704–
95 to control Invasive carp. Carbon
Dioxide-Carp is approved for use only
by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, State natural
resource managers, or persons under
their direct supervision.
The Service will use the information
collected to document the label
requests, maintain inventory, and
document application results of Carbon
Dioxide-Carp as an EPA registered
product. The Service proposes to collect
information from applicators using the
following four forms:
• Form 3–2130: Report on Receipt of
Label—Applicators must apply for a
label to attach to a treatment container
of Carbon Dioxide-Carp prior to being
able to legally apply it as an Invasive
carp deterrent or as an under-ice lethal
control for aquatic nuisance species.
This form collects the following
information:
Æ Applicant’s information, to include
address, date of birth, contact
number(s), email address, and relevant
business information (if application is
on behalf of a business, corporation,
public agency, Tribe, or institution);
Æ Date of label receipt;
Æ Site of application, to include GPS
location, approximate number of surface
acres, and date of application;
Æ Label number; and
Æ Name and address of applicator.
• Form 3–2163: Inventory Form for
Use with Carbon Dioxide-Carp—
Registered applicators must maintain an
accurate inventory of Carbon DioxideCarp for the duration of possession of
the product label. This form collects the
following information:
Æ Applicant’s information, to include
address, date of birth, contact
number(s), email address, and relevant
business information (if application is
on behalf of a business, corporation,
public agency, Tribe, or institution);
Æ Date of application;
Æ Amount of Carbon Dioxide-Carp
applied (pounds);
Æ Label number;
Æ Label return date;
Æ Any adverse incident; and
Æ Name of applicator and affiliation.
• Form 3–2164: Worksheet for Field
Application Locations—Applicators
must complete Form 3–2164 for each
application of Carbon Dioxide-Carp
before the actual application. This form
collects the following information:

Æ Applicant’s information, to include
address, date of birth, contact
number(s), email address, and relevant
business information (if application is
on behalf of a business, corporation,
public agency, Tribe, or institution);
Æ Site information, to include the
name and address of the location;
applicator name, address, telephone
number, and email address; and the
applicator’s certification number; and
Æ Carbon Dioxide-Carp use
information, to include estimated
pounds of Carbon Dioxide-Carp needed,
estimated dates of use, purpose, and a
list of obtained permits.
• Form 3–2191: Results Report
Form—Investigator must submit
application results to the Service to
document efficacy of the treatment and
any possible adverse effects, as this data
is required by the EPA to maintain
product registration. This form collects
the following information:
Æ Applicant’s information, to include
address, date of birth, contact
number(s), email address, and relevant
business information (if application is
on behalf of a business, corporation,
public agency, Tribe, or institution);
Æ Site information (to include GPS
coordinates and city/county/state) and
reporting individual; and
Æ Application information, to include
total amount of Carbon Dioxide-Carp
used (pounds), application date(s),
adverse incident information (to include
date reported to the U.S. Geological
Survey), applicator name and label
number, National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System Permit number, and

burden. The ePermits platform would
automate the five forms associated with
this proposed information collection.
Public burden reduction is a priority for
the Service, the Assistant Secretary for
Fish and Wildlife and Parks, and senior
leadership at the Department of the
Interior. The intent of the ePermits
initiative is to fully automate the
permitting and reporting process to
improve the customer experience and to
reduce time burden on respondents.
This new system will enhance the user
experience by allowing users to enter
data from any device that has internet
access, including personal computers,
tablets, and smartphones. It will also
link the permit applicant to the Pay.gov
system for payment of any associated
fees.
Title of Collection: Online Program
Management System for Carbon
Dioxide-Carp.
OMB Control Number: 1018–New.
Form Number: FWS Forms 3–2130, 3–
2163, 3–2164, 3–2191, and 3–2541.
Type of Review: New.
Respondents/Affected Public: State
and Tribal governments.
Total Estimated Annual Nonhour
Burden Cost: $45,000.00. We estimate

registration fee of $252; and an
administrative fee of $848 (totaling
$15,000 ($1,500 × 10 respondents)).
Each respondent will also incur a onetime startup cost of $3,000 (totaling
$30,000 ($3,000 × 10 respondents)).

other required permits and permit
numbers.
• Form 3–2541: 6(a)(2) Adverse
Incident Report—Investigator must
submit application adverse results to the
Service to document any irregularities
in the application circumstances or
adverse effects on non-target organisms.
This form collects the following
information:
Æ Administrative data, to include
reporting and contact individual (if
different), address and phone number,
incident status, location and date of
incident, when registrant became aware
of incident, and whether incident was
part of a larger study;
Æ Pesticide data, to include whether
exposure was to concentrate prior to
dilution;
Æ Incident circumstances, to include
whether there is evidence that label
directions were not followed, whether
applicator is a certified pest control
operator, type of exposure, incident site,
situation, and brief description of
habitat and incident circumstances; and
Æ Information involving fish, wildlife,
plants, or other non-target organisms;
species; symptoms or adverse effects;
magnitude of the effects; and any
explanatory or qualifying information
surrounding the incident.
