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 March 12, 2024, we published in 

the Federal Register (89 FR 17868) 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 13, 2024. 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 No. FWS–HQ–JAO–2024–0029) 

to provide the public with an additional 

method to submit comments (in 

addition to the typical U.S. mail 

submission method). We received four 

comments in response to that notice. 

None of the comments addressed the 

information collection requirements; 

therefore, no responses are required to 

the comments. 

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,

Abstract: The Fish and Wildlife Act of 

1956 (16 U.S.C. 742(a)–754) establishes 

a comprehensive national fish and 

wildlife policy and authorizes the 

Secretary of the Interior to take steps 

required for the development, 

management, advancement, 

conservation, and protection of fisheries 

resources and wildlife resources 

through research, acquisition of refuge 

lands, development of existing facilities, 

and other means. The Service, working 

with others, is responsible for 

conserving, protecting, and enhancing 

fish and wildlife and their habitats for 

the continuing benefit of the American 

people through Federal programs 

relating to migratory birds, endangered 

species, interjurisdictional fish and 

marine mammals, and inland sport 

fisheries. 

Pursuant to this mission, the Service 

acts as a trustee for injured natural 

resources when oil or hazardous 

substances are spilled or released into 

the environment. Through data 

collected, scientific assessment 

techniques, and extrapolated through 

economic analyses, trustees seek to 

identify the natural resources injured 

from oil or hazardous substances, 

determine the extent of the injuries, 

recover damages from those responsible, 

and plan and carry out restoration 

activities. The primary benefit of the 

Service’s Natural Resource Damage 

Assessment and Response (NRDAR) 

program is to achieve restoration of 

injured resources for the benefit of the 

American people, and at no cost. This 

program seeks compensation from 

responsible parties to restore natural 

resources for all and allows all 

Americans to enjoy clean and safe 

public rivers and lands. 

One aspect of the NRDAR program 

relates to releases of oil or hazardous 

substances that result in the loss of wild 

trout populations. When wild trout 

populations are killed or injured during 

a release event, one remedy includes 

using hatchery trout to replace wild 

trout populations. The potential 

problem with this approach is that there 

is substantial anecdotal evidence that 

trout anglers view and value catching 

wild trout and hatchery trout 

differently. If anglers value wild trout 

lost in a spill or release more highly 

than hatchery trout, then they may not 

have been made fully whole by a 

restoration action that substitutes 

hatchery trout for wild trout.1 An 

examination of existing trout angler 

valuation studies found that, in the 

majority of cases, no attempt was made 

to distinguish between angler values 

associated with fishing for hatchery vs. 

wild trout. This collection proposes a 

random survey of licensed anglers 

designed to elicit data sufficient to 

estimate any differences in preferences 

and values associated with fishing for 

wild vs. hatchery trout. The data 

generated through the proposed 

information collection will provide 

theoretically sound and statistically 

defensible estimates of angler 

experience values for use in gauging 

required compensation levels for lost or 

injured trout resources. For the current 

collection, State-licensed angler 

populations from three States are 

included, focusing on three distinct 

trout fishing regions of the United 

States. 

Legal and administrative justifications 

for this collection can be found under 

43 CFR part 11, Natural Resource 

Damage Assessments, through the 

authority of the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation, and Liability Act, as 

amended, (CERCLA; 42 U.S.C. 9601 et 

seq.), and the Clean Water Act (CWA; 33 

U.S.C. 1251–1376), which give Federal 

agencies authority to assess damages to 

natural resources resulting from a 

release of a hazardous substance or a 

discharge of oil covered under CERCLA 

or the CWA and to seek recovery for 

those damages. 

The proposed collection and 

subsequent analysis will be used by the 

Service and other NRDAR trustees to 

improve methods used to properly 

compensate trout anglers for fishery 

injuries. The surveys will be designed to 

support the estimation of the 

appropriate ‘‘compensation ratio’’ 

between lost wild trout and hatchery 

trout used in restoration activities. This 

information will be used specifically by 

economists and other analysts tasked 

with assessing damages and scaling 

restoration activities. 

Further, while the primary goal of the 

collection is limited to estimating the 

appropriate compensation ratio between 

wild and hatchery trout, valuation data 

will also be collected to allow further 

refinement of this ratio by area of the 

Nation, type of water fished, type of 

fishing gear used, and consumptive vs. 

catch-and-release fishing, to allow 

results to be applied in future NRDAR 

cases across different geographies and 

demographics. 

This study includes a repeat contact 

mail-back/electronic survey of a random 

sample of licensed anglers drawn from 

three representative U.S. States (yet to 

be determined). We plan to contact a 

total of 3,000 licensed anglers (1,000/ 

State). Based on previous survey efforts 

using similar methods, we expect an 

average response rate of 40 percent 

across the 3 States, yielding 1,200 

completed responses. The total burden 

for this one-time collection is estimated 

to be 300 hours. 

Mail/Online Follow-up Visitor Survey: 

The current collection benefits from and 

builds on a successful Minnesota (MN) 

2021 survey instrument 2 which 

incorporated a very similar structure, 

length, and willingness to pay 

elicitation question format. This MN 

random household mail survey was 

anticipated to have a 14-to-16 percent 

response rate—typical for this type of 

unsolicited random household survey. 

The final response rate for the MN 

survey was 21 percent, which was 

considered very good given the 

methodology and protocol used. This 

response rate also reflects the interest 

the general public has in the subject 

matter. For the Service’s mail-back/ 

internet surveys, the population 

(licensed anglers being asked about 

fishing) is much more targeted and 

engaged than the population for general 

random household surveys. The 

potential respondents are already 

engaged in the activity being surveyed 

and, based on previous National Park 

Service (NPS) research that the project 

team has been involved in, are 

predisposed to cooperate with the 

survey effort. For this reason and based 

on the NPS visitor Socioeconomic 

Monitoring Program (SEM) mail-back 

response rates, it is anticipated that 

response rates for the Service’s mailback/online survey will be 40 percent. 

Assuming a 40 percent response rate 

(n=1,200; 400/State) with a completion

time of 15 minutes, the mail-back/ 

online survey will result in a total 

burden of 300 hours.
