Reduction Act (PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.) and its implementing regulations
at 5 CFR 1320, all information
collections require approval under the
PRA. We may not conduct or sponsor
and you are not required to respond to
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies 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.
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. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. 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: The Service enters into
agreements and partnerships with
nonprofit Friends groups to facilitate
and formalize collaboration between the
parties in support of mutual goals and
objectives as authorized by:

• The Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956
(16 U.S.C. 742a–742j);
• The National Wildlife Refuge
System Administration Act of 1966 (16
U.S.C. 668dd–ee), as amended;
• The Refuge Recreation Act of 1962
(16 U.S.C. 460k et seq.), as amended;
• The Anadromous Fish Conservation
Act (16 U.S.C. 757a–757g), as amended;
• The Fish and Wildlife Coordination
Act of 1934 (16 U.S.C. 661–667e), as
amended;
• The National Wildlife Refuge
System Volunteer and Community
Partnership Enhancement Act of 1998
(16 U.S.C. 742f), as amended; and
• The National Fish Hatchery System
Volunteer Act of 2006 (16 U.S.C. 760aa),
as amended.
The Service utilizes a standardized
agreement which describes the
substantial involvement of both parties
in mutually agreed-upon activities and
ensures that both parties have a mutual
understanding of their respective roles,
responsibilities, rights, expectations,
and requirements within the
partnership. The agreement, preapproved by the Department of the
Interior (DOI) Office of the Solicitor,
provides the suggested language
common to most Service Friends
partnerships. The content is based on
DOI and Service policies, but the
Friends and Service sites/programs may
thoughtfully add and delete certain
language to meet their varying
partnership roles and responsibilities
wherever Department and Service
policies do not dictate otherwise. We
also use a supplemental partnership
agreement for use of Service property,
which provides additional terms and
responsibilities beyond the general
terms of the partnership agreement and
is required only for those Friends
groups that use Service land, facilities,
or equipment.
The partnership agreement and
supplemental agreement are effective for
5 years, with four annual modification
options during the 5-year period of
performance. Each time the agreement is
up for its 5-year renewal, the Refuge or
Fish Hatchery Project Leader and the
Friends President or Board will meet to
review, modify, and sign the agreement
as described above. To become effective,
the Regional Director (or designee) must
review, approve, and sign a new
agreement every 5 years.
In addition to the partnership
agreement and supplemental agreement,
and subsequent renewals of the
agreements, the Service collects the
following information in conjunction
with the administration of the Friends
Program:

• Basic program information
documentation, to include documents
such as Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
determination letters recognizing an
organization as tax exempt, submission
of IRS Form 990-series forms, bylaws,
articles of incorporation, etc.;
• Internal financial control
documentation for the organization;
• Recordkeeping requirements
documenting accountability for
donations and expenditures;
• Assurance documentation that
donations, revenues, and expenditures
benefit the applicable refuge or
hatchery;
• Resumes of potential Friends group
staff selected to work in visitor centers;
• Annual performance reporting
(donations, revenues, and expenditures)

and number of memberships (if
applicable); and
• Additional information that may be
included as part of quarterly, annual,
and in-depth program reviews.
Over the life of this clearance, the
Service plans to develop a digital
platform and process to collect
information directly from Friends
groups. Until that occurs, Friends
groups will submit information through
form and non-form responses.
The Service uses the information
collected to establish efficient and
effective partnerships and working
relationships with nonprofit Friends
organizations. The agreements provide a
method for the Service to legally accept
donations of funds and other
contributions by people and
