or by telephone at (703) 358–2503. You
may review the ICR online at http://
www.reginfo.gov. Follow the
instructions to review Department of the
Interior collections under review by
OMB. Individuals in the United States
who are deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing,
or have a speech disability may dial 711
(TTY, TDD, or TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.) and its implementing regulations
at 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), 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.
On July 19, 2022, we published in the
Federal Register (87 FR 43047) a notice
of our intent to request that OMB
approve this information collection. In
that notice, we solicited comments for
60 days, ending on September 19, 2022.
In an effort to increase public awareness
of, and participation in, our public
commenting processes associated with
information collection requests, the
Service also published the Federal
Register notice on Regulations.gov
(Docket FWS–R3–NWRS–2022–0097) to
provide the public with an additional
method to submit comments (in
addition to the typical Info_Coll@
fws.gov email and U.S. mail submission
methods). We did not receive any
comments in response to that notice.
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: Information collected by the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (in
support of the land acquisition program)
is required under applicable statutes,
Department of Justice regulations,
Departmental and Service policies, and

land acquisition program facilitates
Secretarial Orders 3356 and 3366 by
tracking land acquisitions that have
potential to support public hunting,
fishing, and other forms of outdoor
recreation, and access related thereto.
Authorities for the collection of realtyrelated information include:
• U.S. Department of Justice;
Regulations of the Attorney General
Governing the Review and Approval of
Title for Federal Land Acquisitions
(2016);
• Uniform Relocation Assistance and
Real Property Acquisition Policies Act
of 1970, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4601 et
seq.);
• National Wildlife Refuge

Act of 1965 (54 U.S.C. 200301 et seq.);
• Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.);
• Emergency Wetlands Resources Act
of 1986 (16 U.S.C. 3901); and
• Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 742a).
The Service tracks information
collected from landowners as part of the
preliminary land acquisition process.
Information collected by the Service as
part of the preliminary land acquisition
process may include the following:
• Initial Requests—Initial request to
consider property, to include such items

along with spouse and/or co-owner(s)
whose names appear on the current
deed to the property under review;
—Marital status;
—Other names used; and
—Contact information, to include
telephone numbers, personal email
addresses, and mailing/home
addresses.
Æ Financial information, to include
Social Security Numbers (necessary for
final payment transaction).
Æ Property description, to include
such information as:

• Permission to Inspect and Appraise

Æ Appraisal valuations;

may release the Service from the
obligation of obtaining an appraisal for
(1) land donations and (2) certain land
acquisitions where the anticipated value
is low and the valuation problem is
uncomplicated.
Unless delivered in person, both the
Permission to Inspect and Appraise
form (FWS Form 3–2471) and the
Waiver of Appraisal Requirement form
(FWS Form 3–2461) will contain a cover
letter referred to as the access
permission letter. The access permission

but is used to explain the form or waiver
process.
