Abstract: Monitoring and evaluating
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service)
activities, including the activities
National Wildlife Refuge System
(Refuge System), is an essential
component of strategic and adaptive
management. The collection of
information is necessary to enable the
Service to garner customer and
stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with our
commitment to improved service
delivery and customer experience. In
particular, collection of information and
rigorous social science inquiries are
necessary to fulfil the goals of the
President’s Executive Order 14008—
Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and
Abroad, the principles of the Service’s
community-focused Urban Wildlife
Conservation Program, a commitment to
serving a broader and more diverse
public, and allowing the Service to
better understand the needs and
perspectives of Tribal Nations and
Native communities.
The proposed programmatic clearance
would cover social science surveys,
interviews, and focus groups designed
to provide information to Service
managers and practitioners to improve
quality and utility of agency programs,
services, and planning efforts. To ensure
continuous improvement, Service
activities and projects require ongoing
systematic assessment of their design,
implementation, and outcomes. Data
from collections undertaken through the

PO 00000

Frm 00067

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

67793

proposed programmatic clearance
would provide information for
planning, monitoring, and evaluating
Refuge System efforts, as well as efforts
of other Service programs. The scope of
this programmatic clearance includes
individual surveys, focus groups, and
interviews of refuge visitors, potential
visitors, and residents of communities
near Service-managed units, and
stakeholders and partners, including
Tribal interests.
The President’s Executive Order
14008 sets the goal of conserving ‘‘at
least 30 percent of our lands and waters
by 2030’’ through the Conserving and
Restoring America the Beautiful
campaign. A collaborative approach is
needed to achieve the principles for
locally led efforts and better understand
the patterns and trends occurring across
public lands and waters. The Service’s
national visitor survey is one approach
to collecting information from the
public related to visitation across the
Refuge System. The national visitor
survey seeks to understand the
recreation trends and experiences of
visitors at refuges to better manage for
future visitation that aligns with
national conservation goals. One of the
recommendations for early focus and
progress in the America the Beautiful
campaign specifically recommends
increasing access for outdoor recreation,
a management objective the monitoring
data from the visitor survey can help to
inform.
The Service’s Urban Wildlife
Conservation program (Urban program)
was established as a means to engage
with urban communities more
meaningfully in fish and wildlife
conservation. It enumerates designation
criteria for urban wildlife refuges (urban
refuges), partnerships, and bird treaty
cities, and describes how the standards
of excellence apply to urban refuges and
other urban activities. The Urban
program aligns particularly well with
the Department of the Interior’s focus on
equity and environmental justice, work
that helps to achieve one of the
President’s Four Pillars (Racial Equity).
Another recommendation outlined in
the Conserving and Restoring America
the Beautiful campaign includes
creating safe outdoor opportunities in
nature-deprived communities, a goal of
which the Urban program is helping to
achieve.
The Service is required to ‘‘evaluate
and adapt’’ the practices of the Urban
program through internal review of the
urban entities by the Division of Visitor
Services and Communications every 5
years, including an expanded visitor
services review for the Urban Refuges as
per Policy 110 FW 1. The Division

E:\FR\FM\02OCN1.SGM

02OCN1

67794

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 189 / Monday, October 2, 2023 / Notices

‘‘must analyze the people they are
reaching and conduct approved visitor
use surveys to monitor the changes and
track audience engagement.’’ In
addition, the Service is committed to
evaluating progress and measuring
success of the Urban Program’s
standards of excellence, such as ‘‘know
and relate to the community; connect
urban residents with nature through the
steppingstones of engagement; and
ensure visitors feel safe and welcome.’’
The Service’s Human Dimensions
(HD) Branch, programmatically aligned
within the National Wildlife Refuge
System, will serve as the office of
control for the programmatic clearance.
The role of the HD Branch is to build
conservation social science
understanding, capacity and integration
within the Service. A suite of questions
will serve as the basis for all
information collections under this
programmatic clearance. The suite of
questions will be used to develop
surveys to respond to the above-named
Presidential Priorities as well as
adaptively ensure improved customer
experience and satisfaction. As the
office of control, the HD branch ICR
Coordinator will conduct the necessary
quality control, including assuring that
each survey instrument comports with
the guidelines of the programmatic
clearance.
We developed the following topic
areas within the suite of questions to
streamline the ICR process:
(1) Respondent Characteristics (e.g.,
demographics, land and property
characteristics, and visits to other public
lands). This topic area allows us to
understand customer demographic
profiles and track visitation trends more
holistically over time.
(2) Communication (e.g., languages
spoken, sources of information used,
and use of social media and other webbased outlets). This topic area allows us
to understand customer preferences for
finding information.
(3) Trip Planning and Logistics (e.g.,
purpose of trip, information on
wayfinding used, and various trip
characteristics). This topic area allows
us to understand the logistics and
information involved with a customer’s
trip planning experience and make
strategic transportation decisions.

(4) Recreation Activities, Experiences,
and Preferences (e.g., recreation activity
preferences, experience, and
satisfaction). This topic area allows us
to better why customers visit,
understand preferences for wildlifedependent recreation, and provide a
quality customer experiences at specific
sites.
(5) Knowledge, Attitudes, and Beliefs
(e.g., understanding and opinions
around nature, the outdoors, climate
change, and the agency). This topic area
allows us to improve future
programming and communications with
customers.
(6) Resource Management Perceptions
and Preferences (e.g., attitudes around
resource protection, transportation
needs, and other management
decisions). This topic area allows us to
understand current customer
perceptions and anticipate as how
customers would most likely react to
future management actions.
(7) Visitor Expenditures and
Economic Inputs (e.g., trip expenses,
information on local businesses, and
landowner contributions). This topic
area allows us to gather economic data
related to conservation goals of the
agency.
(8) Public, Stakeholder, and Partner
Engagement (e.g., participation in
programs, partnerships, and various
conservation actions). This topic area
allows us to understand if and how the
customer dedicates their time to
conservation-related actions.
(9) Program Evaluation (e.g., learning
outcomes, program experience rating,
and satisfaction). This topic area allows
to better assess overall program
outcomes and performance to improve
future programming.
To qualify for the generic
programmatic review process, each
individual collection under this
programmatic clearance must be welldefined in terms of its sample or
respondent pool and research
methodology; it should clearly fit within
the overall plan and scope of the
approved ICR; and the survey questions
must show a clear tie to Service
management needs. Individual
collections may not raise any
controversial policy issues, include
topics of significant public interest, or

go beyond the methods specified and
approved by OMB in this programmatic
ICR. Any individual collection that
requests non-agency goal-related data or
information on controversial topics
would be inappropriate for expedited
review under this programmatic
clearance and must go through the full
PRA clearance process to solicit public
feedback. In instances where HD Branch
staff are involved with the development
of the individual information collection,
other uninvolved staff in the HD Branch
or a member of the ICR review team
would review the ICR.
We will obtain OMB approval of all
individual survey submissions
developed using the pre-approved suite
of questions before the survey can be
initiated. If, after consultation with the
principal investigator, the ICR
coordinator recommends a proposed
survey for approval, both the Service
and Departmental Information
Collection Clearance Officers (ICCO)
will review the ICR before it is formally
transmitted to OMB for review and
approval.
A copy of the draft suite of questions
is available to the public for viewing in
the docket on the https://
www.regulations.gov website, or by
submitting an email request to the
Service ICCO as provided in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of
this notice.
