VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:36 Sep 11, 2026 Jkt 268001 Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected agencies should address one or more of the following four points: (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information 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 of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (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 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 responses. Overview of This Information Collection (1) Type of Information Collection: Extension, Without Change, of a Currently Approved Collection. (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Application for Certificate of Citizenship. (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the DHS sponsoring the collection: N–600; USCIS. (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: Primary: Form N–600 collects information from applicants who are requesting a Certificate of Citizenship because they acquired United States citizenship either by birth abroad to a U.S. citizen parent(s), adoption by a U.S. citizen parent(s), or after meeting eligibility requirements including the naturalization of a foreign-born parent. Form N–600 can also be filed by a parent or legal guardian on behalf of a minor child. The form standardizes requests for the benefit and ensures that basic information required to assess eligibility is provided by applicants. USCIS uses the information collected on Form N–600 to determine if a Certificate of Citizenship can be issued to the applicant. Citizenship acquisition laws have changed over time and different laws apply to determine whether the applicant automatically became a U.S. citizen depending on the dates of relevant events, such as the child’s date of birth. USCIS may request that applicants who reside within the United States attend an appointment at a USCIS PO 00000 Frm 00115 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Application Support Center to have a photograph taken. USCIS may also require applicants to submit additional biometrics under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(9). (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The estimated total number of respondents for the information collection N–600 (paper-filed) is 26,810 and the estimated hour burden per response is 1.5 hours; the estimated total number of respondents for the information collection N–600 (online filing) is 28,190 and the estimated hour burden per response is 0.75 hours; the estimated total number of respondents for the information collection biometrics submission is 36,500 and the estimated hour burden per response is 1.17 hours. (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection: The total estimated annual hour burden associated with this collection is 104,063 hours. (7) An estimate of the total public burden (in cost) associated with the collection: The estimated total annual cost burden associated with this collection of information is $7,081,250.00.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA; 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at 5 CFR part 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. On March 13, 2026, we published in the Federal Register (91 FR 12437) a notice of our intent to request that OMB approve this information collection. In that notice, we solicited comments for 60 days, ending on May 12, 2026. We also published the Federal Register notice on Regulations.gov Docket No. FWS–R3–NWRS–2025–1496). We received one anonymous comment in response to that notice. The commenter did not address the information collection requirements; therefore, no response is required. As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burdens, we are again inviting the public and other Federal agencies to comment on new, proposed, revised, and continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:36 Sep 11, 2026 Jkt 268001 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. 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 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 Service (in support of the land acquisition program) is required under applicable statutes, Department of Justice regulations, Department of the Interior and Service policies, and best business practices. In addition, the 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.); PO 00000 Frm 00116 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 58171 • National Wildlife Refuge Administration Act of 1966 (16 U.S.C. 668dd et seq.); • Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp Act (16 U.S.C. 718a et seq.); • Migratory Bird Conservation Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 715–715r); • Land and Water Conservation Fund 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 landowner request to consider their property, to include such items as: Æ Identifying information for the legal property owner(s), such as: —Name of primary property owner, 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: —Property name, —Location, —Legal description, and —Introductory information. • Permission to Inspect and Appraise (Form 3–2471)––Collects information about the property owner and location, and grants permission to enter and inspect the property for real estate acquisition purposes. Inspection may include, but is not limited to: Æ Appraisal valuations; Æ Boundary survey; Æ Hazardous materials examination (contaminant survey); and Æ Physical examination of any structures on the property. We do not use Form 3–2471 in projects that are under Memoranda of Understanding, Memoranda of Agreement, Cooperative Agreements, certain donation partnerships, and other special cases. • Waiver of Appraisal Requirement (Form 3–2461)––Per 49 CFR 24.102(c)(2), a willing-seller landowner E:\FR\FM\14SEN1.SGM 14SEN1 58172 Federal Register / Vol. 91, No. 176 / Monday, September 14, 2026 / Notices khammond on DSK9W7S144PROD with NOTICE 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 (Form 3–2471) and the Waiver of Appraisal Requirement form (Form 3– 2461) will contain a cover letter referred to as the access permission letter. The access permission letter does not request any information, but is used to explain the form or waiver process. Information is collected and protected in accordance with the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) and the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552). We will maintain the information in a secure system of records (Real Property Records, FWS–11; 71 FR 68635 (November 27, 2006); modification published 88 FR 16277 (March 16, 2023)). We gather Social Security numbers and banking information to assist with electronic payments and preparation of the required Internal Revenue Service 1099 Forms. Proposed Revision The Service proposes to rescind Form 3–2471, ‘‘Permission to Inspect and Appraise’’ and Form 3–2461, ‘‘Waiver of Appraisal Requirement’’ forms because the property information was previously provided in the initial landowner request and is prepopulated by the Service, and the property owner signs only to verify and approve the information. Therefore, since the property owners are not required to resubmit this information, the forms do not require OMB approval under the PRA. Title of Collection: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Preliminary Land Acquisition Process. OMB Control Number: 1018–0174. Form Numbers: 3–2461 and 3–2471. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
