Comments Invited
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.

SUMMARY:

in compliance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA). The ICR describes
the nature of the information collection
and its expected burden. This collection
involves the submission of information
from certain current and former TSA
employees who are interested in a Law
Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004
(LEOSA) Identification (ID) Card, a
retired badge, and/or a retired
credential.

enforcement officer’’ may carry a
concealed firearm in any jurisdiction in
the United States, regardless of State or
local laws, with certain limitations and
conditions. In accordance with LEOSA,
the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) issued DHS Directive and
Instruction Manual 257–01, Law
Enforcement Officers Safety Act (Nov. 5,
2009). DHS Directive 257–01 requires
DHS components to implement the
provisions of LEOSA pertaining to
qualified retired Law Enforcement
Officers (LEOs) as cost-effectively and
efficiently as possible consistent with
the requirements and intent of the
statute for LEOs formerly employed by
DHS and predecessor agencies.
TSA subsequently issued TSA
Management Directive (MD) 3500.1,
LEOSA Applicability and Eligibility
(Oct. 7, 2001), to implement the LEOSA
statute and DHS directive. Under this
MD, TSA issues photographic
identification to retired LEOs who
separated or retired from TSA in ‘‘good
standing’’ and meet other qualification
requirements identified in this MD.
Retired Badge/Credential
Under TSA MD 2800.11, Badge and
Credential Program, a TSA employee
retiring from Federal service is eligible
to receive a ‘‘retired badge and/or
credential’’ if the individual: (1) Was
issued a badge and/or credential, (2)
qualifies for a Federal annuity under the
Civil Service Retirement System or the
Federal Employees Retirement System,
and (3) meets all of the other
qualification requirements under the
MD.2
If the employee is approved for a
retired badge and/or credential, his or
her badge and/or credential will be
replicated by TSA and marked with the
word ‘‘RETIRED,’’ to indicate that the
retired employee no longer has the
authority to perform specific official
functions pursuant to law, statute,
regulation, or DHS Directive. In the case
of a retired LEO, the individual is
prohibited from using the TSA retired
credential as photographic
identification for the purposes of the
LEOSA.
Purpose and Description of Data
Collection
Under TSA’s current application
process for these two programs,
Act Improvements Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111–272,
124 Stat. 2855; Oct. 12, 2010) and National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Pub. L.
112–239, 126 Stat. 1970; Jan. 2, 2013).
2 These instructions are included in DHS
Instruction: 121–01–002 (Issuance and Control of
DHS Badges); DHS Instruction 121–01–008
(Issuance and Control of the DHS Credentials); and
the associated Handbook for TSA MD 2800.11.

qualified applicants may apply for a
LEOSA ID Card, a Retired Badge, and/
or a Retired Credential, as applicable,
either while still employed by TSA
(shortly before separating or retiring) or
after they have separated or retired (after
they become private citizens, i.e., are no
longer employed by the Federal
Government).
The LEOSA Identification Card
Application (TSA Form 2825A) requires
collection of identifying information,
contact information, official title,
separation date, and last known field
office. Identifying information, such as
the date of birth and social security
number, are necessary to confirm the
individual’s identity and to process the
individual through the National Crime
Information Center database. Similarly,
for purposes of a retired badge and/or
credential, TSA Form 2808–R, Retired
Badge and/or Retired Credential
Application, requires collection of
identifying information, contact
information, TSA employment/position
information (TSA component or
Government agency), official title, and
entry on duty date. This collection of
information is necessary to confirm the
identity of the individual, conduct the
necessary qualification process to
determine the individual’s eligibility for
a retired badge and/or credential, and to
contact the individual if needed.
Based on current data, TSA estimates
183 TSA Forms 2825A and 183 TSA
Forms 2808–R will be submitted, for a
total of 366 respondents annually. It
takes approximately 5 minutes (0.08333
hours) to complete either form, so the
total annual hour burden to the public
will be 366 x 0.08333 hours, or 30.5
hours.
Dated: January 6, 2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS), announce the availability of
our draft recovery plan for New Mexico

hudsonius luteus), which we listed as
endangered in 2014 (79 FR 33119)
under the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.). The subspecies is endemic to
New Mexico, Arizona, and a small area
of southern Colorado. It nests in dry
soils and uses dense riparian vegetation
up to an elevation of about 9,500 feet.
The draft recovery plan includes
specific goals, objectives, and criteria
that may help to inform our
consideration of whether to reclassify
the species as threatened (i.e.,
‘‘downlist’’) or remove the subspecies
from the Federal List of Endangered and
Threatened Wildlife (i.e., ‘‘delist’’). We
request review of and comment on the
draft recovery plan from local, State,
and Federal agencies; Tribes;
nongovernmental organizations; and the
public.
Recovery Planning and Implementation
Section 4(f) of the ESA requires the
development of recovery plans for listed
species, unless such a plan would not
promote the conservation of a particular
species. Also pursuant to section 4(f) of
the ESA, 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 that,
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.
In 2016 the USFWS revised its
approach to recovery planning, and is
now using a process termed recovery
planning and implementation (RPI) (see
https://www.fws.gov/endangered/esalibrary/pdf/RPI.pdf). The RPI approach
is intended to reduce the time needed
to develop and implement recovery
plans, increase recovery plan relevance
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 addresses the statutorily required
elements under section 4(f) of the Act,
including site-specific management
actions, objective and measurable
recovery criteria, and the estimated time
and cost to recovery. The RPI recovery
plan is supported by two supplementary
documents: A species status assessment
(SSA), which describes the best
