respondents and the amount of time 

estimated for an average respondent to

30-Day Notice of Proposed Information 

Collection: Medical Exception or Delay 

to COVID Vaccination Requirement 

AGENCY: Office of Policy Development 

and Research, Chief Data Officer, HUD. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: HUD is seeking approval from 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for the information collection 

described below. In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act, HUD is 

requesting comment from all interested 

parties on the proposed collection of 

information. The purpose of this notice 

is to allow for 30 days of public 

comment. 

DATES: Comments Due Date: April 20, 

2022. 

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are 

invited to submit comments regarding 

this proposal. Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to OIRA_submission@

omb.eop.gov or www.reginfo.gov/public/

information collection by selecting 

‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Anna P. Guido, Reports Management 

Officer, QMAC, Department of Housing 

and Urban Development, 451 7th Street 

SW, Washington, DC 20410; email her at 

Anna.P.Guido@hud.gov or telephone 

202–402–5535. This is not a toll-free 

number. Copies of available documents 

submitted to OMB may be obtained 

from Ms. Guido. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

vaccination requirement issued 

pursuant to E.O. 14043, is currently the 

subject of a nationwide injunction. 

While that injunction remains in place, 

the Department of Housing and Urban 

Development (HUD) will not process 

requests for a medical exception from 

the COVID–19 vaccination requirement 

pursuant to E.O. 14043. HUD will also 

not request the submission of any 

medical information related to a request 

for an exception from the vaccination 

requirement pursuant to E.O. 14043 

while the injunction remains in place. 

But HUD may nevertheless receive 

information regarding a medical 

exception. That is because, if HUD were 

to receive a request for an exception 

from the COVID–19 vaccination 

requirement pursuant to E.O. 14043 

during the pendency of the injunction, 

HUD will accept the request, hold it in 

abeyance, and notify the employee who 

submitted the request that 

implementation and enforcement of the 

COVID–19 vaccination requirement 

pursuant to E.O. 14043 is currently 

enjoined and that an exception therefore 

is not necessary so long as the 

injunction is in place. In other words, 

during the pendency of the injunction, 

any information collection related to 

requests for medical exception from the 

COVID–19 vaccination requirement 

pursuant to E.O. 14043 is not 

undertaken to implement or enforce the 

COVID–19 vaccination requirement. 

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 January 21, 2022 

at 87 FR 3324. 

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Medical Exception or Delay to COVID 

Vaccination Requirement. 

OMB Approval Number: 2501–0037. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Form Number: Form HUD–1001. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: The 

Office of the Chief Human Capital 

Officer at the U.S. Department of 

Housing and Urban Development (HUD) 

is seeking approval to collect 

information from employees regarding 

requests for medical exceptions in 

accordance with the following 

authorities: 

The Rehabilitation Act, 29 U.S.C. 791, 

and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, 42 

U.S.C. 2000e, as well as Executive 

Orders 13164 and 14043, and 29 CFR 

1605 and 1614. 

Collection of information regarding 

medical exceptions will enable the 

agency to render well-informed 

decisions in accordance with the federal 

authorities. Exceptions will be granted 

in limited circumstances and only 

where legally required.

ACTION: Notice of receipt of permit 

application; request for comments. 

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service, have received 

applications for permits to conduct 

activities intended to enhance the 

propagation or survival of endangered 

species under the Endangered Species 

Act. We invite the public and local, 

State, Tribal, and Federal agencies to 

comment on these applications. Before 

issuing the requested permits, we will 

take into consideration any information 

that we receive during the public 

comment period. 

DATES: We must receive your written 

comments on or before April 20, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: Use one of the following 

methods to request documents or 

submit comments. Requests and 

comments should specify the applicant 

name and application number (e.g., 

PER0001234):

Individuals in the United States who are 

deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing, or have 

a speech disability may dial 711 (TTY, 

TDD, or TeleBraille) to access 

telecommunications relay services. 

Individuals outside the United States 

should use the relay services offered 

within their country to make 

international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite 

the public to comment on applications 

for permits under section 10(a)(1)(A) of 

the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

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

The requested permits would allow the 

applicants to conduct activities 

intended to promote recovery of species 

that are listed as endangered under the 

ESA. 

Background 

With some exceptions, the ESA 

prohibits activities that constitute take 

of listed species unless a Federal permit 

is issued that allows such activity. The 

ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes such 

activities as pursuing, harassing, 

trapping, capturing, or collecting in 

addition to hunting, shooting, harming, 

wounding, or killing. 

A recovery permit issued by us under 

section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA 

authorizes the permittee to conduct 

activities with endangered or threatened 

species for scientific purposes that 

promote recovery or for enhancement of 

propagation or survival of the species. 

Our regulations implementing section 

10(a)(1)(A) for these permits are found 

at 50 CFR 17.22 for endangered wildlife 

species, 50 CFR 17.32 for threatened 

wildlife species, 50 CFR 17.62 for 

endangered plant species, and 50 CFR 

17.72 for threatened plant species.
