ACTION: Issuance of permit. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

Joseph Hightower, Ph.D., North Carolina 

Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research 

Unit, North Carolina State University, 

Raleigh, NC 27695, has been issued a 

permit to take shortnose sturgeon 

(Acipenser brevirostrum) for scientific 

research. 

ADDRESSES: The permit and related 

documents are available for review 

upon written request or by appointment 

in the following office(s):

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 

12, 2010, notice was published in the 

Federal Register (75 FR 11862) that a 

request for a scientific research permit 

to take shortnose sturgeon had been 

submitted by the above-named 

individual. The requested permit has 

been issued under the authority of the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) 

and the regulations governing the 

taking, importing, and exporting of 

endangered and threatened species (50 

CFR parts 222–226). 

The applicant is authorized to 

conduct a five-year scientific study 

determining the presence, abundance 

and distribution of shortnose sturgeon 

in North Carolina rivers (Chowan, 

Roanoke, and Cape Fear) and estuaries 

(Albemarle Sound). The permit 

authorizes non-lethal sampling with 

anchored gill nets, capturing up to 15 

shortnose sturgeon annually from the 

Chowan and Cape Fear River Basins and 

Albemarle Sound. Similar activities 

capturing up to 25 shortnose sturgeon 

from the Roanoke River Basin will also 

be conducted each year. A sub-set of up 

to five adults or sub-adults from each 

river and Albemarle Sound will be 

anesthetized and implanted with 

internal sonic transmitters annually. 

Each will be captured, measured, 

weighed, sampled for genetic tissue 

analysis, and PIT tagged. Tracking 

sturgeon at fixed receiver stations will 

take place providing information about 

movement, seasonal distribution and 

habitat use. 

As required by the ESA, issuance of 

this permit was based on a finding that 

such permit: (1) was applied for in good 

faith; (2) will not operate to the 

disadvantage of such endangered 

species; and (3) is consistent with the 

purposes and policies set forth in 

section 2 of the ESA.

Export of Noncomplying Goods 

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Consumer Product Safety 

Commission (‘‘CPSC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) 

is announcing that a proposed 

collection of information has been 

submitted to the Office of Management 

and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for review and 

clearance under the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (‘‘PRA’’). 

DATES: Fax written comments on the 

collection of information by September 

30, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on 

the information collection are received, 

OMB recommends that written 

comments be faxed to the Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

OMB, Attn: CPSC Desk Officer, FAX: 

202–395–6974, or e-mailed to 

oira_submission@omb.eop.gov. Written 

comments should be captioned ‘‘Export 

of Noncomplying Goods.’’ All comments 

should be identified with the OMB 

Control Number 3041–0003. In addition, 

written comments should also be 

submitted by mail/hand delivery/ 

courier (for paper, disk, or CD–ROM 

submissions), preferably in five copies, 

to: Office of the Secretary, Consumer 

Product Safety Commission, Room 820, 

4330 East West Highway, Bethesda, MD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, the 

CPSC has submitted the following 

proposed collection of information to 

OMB for review and clearance.

srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 168 / Tuesday, August 31, 2010 / Notices 53279 

Commission requested comments on a 

proposed three year extension of 

approval of information collection 

requirements in regulations codified at 

16 CFR part 1019, which establish 

procedures for export of noncomplying, 

misbranded, or banned products. These 

regulations implement provisions of the 

Consumer Product Safety Act, the 

Federal Hazardous Substances Act, and 

the Flammable Fabrics Act, as amended 

by the Consumer Product Safety 

Improvement Act of 2008. Persons and 

firms are required to notify the 

Commission before exporting any 

product that fails to comply with an 

applicable standard or regulation 

enforced under provisions of those laws. 

The Commission is required to transmit 

the information relating to the proposed 

exportation to the government of the 

country of intended destination. In 

addition, for any consumer product that 

is not in conformity with an applicable 

consumer product safety rule, exports 

from the United States may be 

prohibited unless the importing country 

has notified the Commission that such 

country accepts the importation of such 

consumer product. 15 U.S.C. 2067. 

In the Federal Register of May 18, 

2010 (75 FR 27732), the CPSC published 

a 60-day notice requesting public 

comment on the proposed collection of 

information. No comments were 

received. 

We estimate the burden of this 

collection of information as follows. 

Based on a review of the number of 

export requests received by the CPSC 

during the last three years, the CPSC 

staff estimates that approximately 44 

notifications will be received from an 

estimated 20 firms per year. The staff 

further estimates that the average time 

for each response is one hour, for a total 

of 44 hours of annual burden. The 

annualized cost to respondents would 

be approximately $2,505. (44 hours at 

$56.93 per hour based on total 

compensation of all management, 

professional, and related occupations in 

goods-producing industries in the 

United States, September 2009, Bureau 

of Labor Statistics.) 

The estimated annual cost of the 

information collection requirements to 

the Federal government is 

approximately $14,000. The staff 

estimates that it takes about three hours 

to process an export notification and 

enter the information in the appropriate 

database. The receipt and processing of 

44 notifications would require 

approximately 132 staff hours or 

approximately 1 staff month per year.
