SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice informs the public that HUD is 

seeking approval from OMB for the 

information collection described in 

Section A. 

The Federal Register notice that 

solicited public comment on the 

information collection for a period of 60 

days was published on February 14, 

2020 at 85 FR 8604. 

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Strategies for Removing the Regulatory 

Impediments to the Financing and 

Siting of Factory-Built Housing in 

American Communities. 

OMB Approval Number: 2528-New. 

Type of Request: New. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: To 

assess the cost-effectiveness of factorybuilt housing as a potential affordable 

housing option in urban and suburban 

communities, HUD seeks to better 

understand the regulatory barriers 

preventing or limiting the use of factorybuilt housing. This study is framed by 

the general research question: What are 

the main drivers or barriers to the 

financing, siting and development of 

factory-built housing systems in various 

communities? A significant portion of 

the work of this study will involve 

identifying the types of barriers, their 

potential impact (or stringency), and 

their use in various communities. This 

process will involve research on several 

different communities in order to 

develop a typology of different barriers, 

catalog the community contexts where 

different barriers are more prevalent, 

and develop opportunity cost estimates 

of different barriers in different 

contexts. Information will be collected 

online and by telephone from local land 

use planning officials and 

manufacturers and dealers of factorybuilt housing to help determine the 

extent to which regulatory barriers limit 

the development of factory-built 

housing systems as an affordable 

housing option.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C. 

3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we 

provide the general public and other 

Federal agencies with an opportunity 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. 

On April 2, 2020, we published in the 

Federal Register (85 FR 18532) a 

proposed rule to begin the process of 

establishing migratory bird hunting 

regulations for certain Tribes on Federal 

Indian reservations, off-reservation trust 

lands, and ceded lands for the 2020–21 

migratory bird hunting season. That 

Federal Register document also 

contained notice of our intent to request 

that OMB approve this related 

information collection. In that notice, 

we solicited comments for 60 days, 

ending on June 1, 2020. We did not 

receive any comments in response to 

that proposed rule. 

Additionally, on May 1, 2020, the 

Migratory Bird Program shared the 

proposed rule document with the 

Flyway Council representatives to 

solicit their feedback on the information 

collection requirements. We extended 

the comment period for the Flyway 

Councils to provide comments until 

October 30, 2020, so that they could 

share the information during their 

annual August/September Flyway 

Council meetings. We did not receive 

any comments in response to that 

additional comment opportunity. 

As part of our continuing effort to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burdens, we are again soliciting 

comments from the public and other 

Federal agencies on the proposed 

information collection request (ICR) that 

is described below. 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 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: Migratory game birds are 

those bird species so designated in 

conventions between the United States 

and several foreign nations for the 

protection and management of these 

birds. Under the Migratory Bird Treaty 

Act (16 U.S.C. 703–712), the Secretary 

of the Interior is authorized to 

determine when ‘‘hunting, taking, 

capture, killing, possession, sale, 

purchase, shipment, transportation, 

carriage, or export of any * * * bird, or 

any part, nest, or egg’’ of migratory game 

birds can take place, and to adopt 

regulations for this purpose. These 

regulations are written after giving due 

regard to ‘‘the zones of temperature and 

to the distribution, abundance, 

economic value, breeding habits, and 

times and lines of migratory flight of 

such birds’’ and are updated annually 

(16 U.S.C. 704(a)). This responsibility 

has been delegated to the Service as the 

lead Federal agency for managing and 

conserving migratory birds in the 

United States. However, migratory game 

bird management is a cooperative effort 

of State, Tribal, and Federal 

governments. Migratory game bird 

hunting seasons provide opportunities 

for recreation and sustenance; aid 

Federal, State, and Tribal governments 

in the management of migratory game 

birds; and permit harvests at levels 

compatible with migratory game bird 

population status and habitat 

conditions. 

The Service develops migratory game 

bird hunting regulations by establishing 

the frameworks, or outside limits, for 

season lengths, bag limits, and areas for 

migratory game bird hunting. 

Acknowledging regional differences in 

hunting conditions, the Service has 

administratively divided the Nation into 

four Flyways for the primary purpose of 

managing migratory game birds. Each 

Flyway (Atlantic, Mississippi, Central, 

and Pacific) has a Flyway Council, a 

formal organization generally composed 

of one member from each State and 

Province in that Flyway. The Flyway 

Councils, established through the 

Association of Fish and Wildlife 

Agencies, also assist in researching and 

providing migratory game bird 

management information for Federal, 

State, and Provincial governments, as 

well as private conservation entities and 

the general public. 

We request the following information 

to establish annual migratory bird 

hunting seasons: 

Information Requested To Establish 

Annual Migratory Bird Hunting 

Seasons 

As a result of the incremental annual 

rulemaking process explained above, 

the information requested from States is 

solicited during a different point in the 

overall rulemaking process than the 

information requested from Tribal 

governments. However, the final rules 

published at the end of the rulemaking 

process each year incorporate all 

information received from the State and 

Tribal governments. Therefore, this ICR 

incorporates both the annual requests 

for Tribal proposals in the proposed 

rules and the information requested 

annually from the States during 

subsequent proposed rules (all under 

the same Regulatory Identifier Number; 

we post all rules electronically on the 

Service’s website (https://www.fws.gov/ 

policy/frsystem/default.cfm). State and 

Tribal governments are aware of this 

process that affords them the 

opportunity to provide comments on the 

information collection requirements 

identified in the PRA section of each 

rule. 

The information identified below, 

necessary to establish annual migratory 

bird hunting seasons, is solicited 

annually from State (including U.S. 

territory) and Tribal governments. The 

required information, received at 

various times in the year prior to the 

actual hunting season as part of the 

rulemaking process described above, is 

used by the Service as part of the final 

rulemaking process necessary to open

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 244 / Friday, December 18, 2020 / Notices 82503 

annual hunting seasons otherwise 

closed by law. 

Details Needed From States and U.S. 

Territories 

State and U.S. territory governments 

that wish to establish annual migratory 

game bird hunting seasons are required 

to provide the requested dates and other 

details for hunting seasons in their 

respective States or Territories. The 

information is provided to the Service 

in a non-form format, usually via letter 

or spreadsheet, in response to 

solicitations for the information sent to 

the State governments each year via an 

emailed letter and as part of the first 

final rule (for the frameworks). 

Details Needed From Tribal 

Governments 

Tribes that wish to use the guidelines 

(published June 4, 1985, 50 FR 23459— 

copy uploaded to ROCIS) to establish 

special hunting regulations for the 

annual migratory game bird hunting 

season are required to submit a proposal 

that includes: 

(1) The requested migratory game bird 

hunting season dates and other details 

regarding the proposed regulations; 

(2) Harvest anticipated under the 

proposed regulations; and 

(3) Tribal capabilities to enforce 

migratory game bird hunting 

regulations. 

For those situations where it could be 

shown that failure to limit Tribal 

harvest could seriously impact the 

migratory game bird resource, we also 

request information on the methods 

employed to monitor harvest and any 

potential steps taken to limit level of 

harvest. 

A Tribe that desires the earliest 

possible opening of the migratory game 

bird season for nontribal members 

should specify this request in its 

proposal, rather than request a date that 

might not be within the final Federal 

frameworks. Similarly, unless a Tribe 

wishes to set more restrictive 

regulations than Federal regulations will 

permit for nontribal members, the 

proposal should request the same daily 

bag and possession limits and season 

length for migratory game birds that 

Federal regulations are likely to permit 

the States in the Flyway in which the 

reservation is located. 

Reports (50 CFR part 20): The 

following reports are requested from the 

States and are submitted either annually 

or every 3 years as explained in the 

following text. 

Reports From Experimental Hunting 

Seasons and Season Structure Changes 

(Required) 

Atlantic Flyway Council 

• Delaware—Experimental tundra 

swan season (Yearly updates and Final 

report). 

• Florida (Completed)—Experimental 

teal-only season (Yearly updates and 

Final report). 

Mississippi Flyway Council 

• Alabama—Experimental sandhill 

crane season (Yearly updates and Final 

report). 

Central Flyway Council 

• Nebraska (Completed)— 

Experimental teal season (Yearly 

updates and Final report). 

• New Mexico—Sandhill crane 

season in Estancia Valley: Yearly 

updates and Final report. This report 

was changed from experimental to 

operational. Annual data are still 

required, but there is not a final report, 

since this monitoring will occur in 

perpetuity (or as long as the State has 

that hunt area). 

• Wyoming—Split (three-way) season 

for Canada geese (Final report only). 

Pacific Flyway Council 

• California—Zones and split season 

for white-fronted geese (Final report 

only). 

Additional State-Specific Annual 

Reports 

State-Specific 

• Arizona—Sandhill crane racial 

composition of the harvest conducted at 

3-year intervals. 

• North Carolina and Virginia— 

Tundra swan harvest and hunter 

participation data (Yearly). 

• Montana (Central Flyway portion), 

North Dakota, and South Dakota— 

Tundra swan harvest and hunter 

participation data (Yearly). 

• Montana (Pacific Flyway portion)— 

Swan harvest-monitoring program to 

measure species composition (Yearly). 

• Montana (Pacific Flyway portion), 

Utah, and Nevada—Swan harvestmonitoring program to measure the 

species composition and report 

detailing swan harvest, hunter 

participation, reporting compliance, and 

monitoring of swam populations in 

designated hunt areas (Yearly). 

Reports and monitoring are used for a 

variety of reasons. Some are used to 

monitor species composition of the 

harvest for those areas where species 

intermingling can confound harvest 

management, and potential overharvest 

of one species can be of management 

concern. Others are used to determine 

overall harvest for those species and/or 

areas that are not sampled well by our 

overall harvest surveys due to either the 

limited nature/area of the hunt or 

season, or where the harvest needs to 

closely monitored. Experimental season 

reports are used to determine whether 

the experimental season is achieving its 

intended goals and objectives, without 

causing unintended harm to other 

species and ultimately whether the 

experimental season should proceed to 

operational status. Most experimental 

seasons are 3-year trials with yearly 

reports and a final report. Most of the 

other reports and monitoring are 

conducted either annually or at 3-year 

intervals.
