Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 131 / Tuesday, July 13, 2021 / Notices 36759 

with a 60-day comment period soliciting 

comments, of the following collection of 

information on April 13, 2021 (86 FR 

19276). 

Comments Invited 

In accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 

et seq.), an agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

unless it displays a valid OMB control 

number. The ICR documentation will be 

made available at http://

www.reginfo.gov upon its submission to 

OMB. Therefore, in preparation for 

OMB review and approval of the 

following information collection, TSA is 

soliciting comments to— 

(1) Evaluate whether the proposed 

information requirement 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; 

(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 using 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

Information Collection Requirement 

Title: TSA Customer Comment Tools. 

Type of Request: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

OMB Control Number: 1652–0030. 

Forms(s): NA. 

Affected Public: Travelling public. 

Abstract: The TSA Contact Center 

(TCC) continues to serve as the main 

portal of communication for the 

traveling public. The public may contact 

the TCC via email or phone to request 

information, file a complaint—general 

or Civil Rights and Liberties, 

compliment, or provide general 

feedback. With over one million 

contacts per year, it is crucial for TSA 

to have the ability to capture this 

information. TSA’s online submission 

forms are readily available from the 

Customer Service portion of tsa.gov. The 

online forms are easy to use and offer 

several dropdown menu choices to 

reduce the burden on the public and 

increase the quality of data for TSA. 

Currently, there are four options for the 

online forms: Complaint and 

Compliment, Request for Assistance, 

Request for Information, and Security 

Issues. The online forms are easy to use 

and offer several dropdown menu 

choices to reduce the burden on the 

public and increase the quality of data 

for TSA. TCC provides a receipt to any 

person who submits an online form. 

TSA is revising the information 

collection, moving from four online 

forms to six electronic forms. The online 

form Complaint and Compliment has 

been broken into two separate distinct 

online forms. TSA PreCheckTM has been 

pulled out of the drop down menu of 

Complaint and given its own online 

form. Request for Assistance online 

form has been renamed TSA Cares. The 

6 online forms are as follows: 

• Complaint—passengers may 

provide a complaint regarding their 

experiences with TSA security 

procedures. Passengers may also use 

this form to file Disability or Civil 

Rights and Civil Liberties complaints. 

• TSA PreCheck—passengers may 

share concerns about not receiving TSA 

PreCheck on their boarding pass or 

other concerns. 

• Compliment—passengers may share 

how TSA exceeded their expectations. 

• Request for Information— 

passengers may submit an inquiry about 

TSA policies and procedures, such as 

traveling with medical conditions, 

prohibited & permitted items, security 

screening and more. 

• TSA Cares—passengers may request 

assistance through the TSA screening 

checkpoint. 

• Security Issue—passengers may 

identify and report suspicious activities 

and threats. The TCC provides a receipt 

to any person who submits an electronic 

form or email to TSA as required by 49 

CFR 1503.3(a). 

Also, TSA is changing the name of 

OMB control number 1652–0030 from 

‘‘TSA Customer Comment Card’’ to 

‘‘TSA Customer Comment Tools’’ to 

more accurately represent the 

information collection. In addition, TSA 

is making non-substantive changes to 

the paper comment card, updating the 

appearance—font, TSA insignia and 

spacing. 

Number of Respondents: An 

estimated 88,352 respondents annually. 

Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An 

estimated 7,518 hours annually.

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 March 4, 2021, we published in 

the Federal Register (86 FR 12707) 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 3, 2021. We 

received one comment in response to 

that notice, expressing concern that the 

programs were morally wrong because 

they supported wildlife hunting. The 

comment did not address the 

information collection requirements, so 

no response is required. 

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 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

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 

History of the Federal Duck Stamp 

On March 16, 1934, Congress passed, 

and President Franklin D. Roosevelt 

signed, the Migratory Bird Hunting 

Stamp Act (16 U.S.C. 718–718k). 

Popularly known as the Duck Stamp 

Act, it required all waterfowl hunters 16 

years or older to buy a stamp annually. 

The revenue generated was originally 

earmarked for the Department of 

Agriculture, but 5 years later was 

transferred to the Department of the 

Interior and the Service. 

In the years since its enactment, the 

Federal Duck Stamp Program has 

become one of the most popular and 

successful conservation programs ever 

initiated. Today, some 1.5 million 

stamps are sold each year, and as of 

2017, Federal Duck Stamps had 

generated more than $1 billion for the 

preservation of more than 6 million 

acres of waterfowl habitat in the United 

States. Numerous other birds, mammals, 

fish, reptiles, and amphibians have 

similarly prospered because of habitat 

protection made possible by the 

program. An estimated one-third of the 

Nation’s endangered and threatened 

species find food or shelter in refuges 

preserved by Duck Stamp funds. 

Moreover, the protected wetlands help 

dissipate storms, purify water supplies, 

store flood water, and nourish fish 

hatchlings important for sport and 

commercial fishermen. 

History of the Duck Stamp Contest 

Jay N. ‘‘Ding’’ Darling, a nationally 

known political cartoonist for the Des 

Moines Register and a noted hunter and 

wildlife conservationist, designed the 

first Federal Duck Stamp at President 

Roosevelt’s request. In subsequent years, 

noted wildlife artists submitted designs. 

The first Federal Duck Stamp Contest 

was opened in 1949 to any U.S. artist 

who wished to enter, and 65 artists 

submitted a total of 88 design entries. 

Since then, the contest has been known 

as the Federal Migratory Bird Hunting 

and Conservation Stamp Art (Duck 

Stamp) Contest and has attracted large 

numbers of entrants. 

The Duck Stamp Contest (50 CFR part 

91) remains the only art competition of 

its kind regulated by the U.S. 

Government. The Secretary of the 

Interior appoints a panel of noted art, 

waterfowl, and philatelic authorities to 

select each year’s winning design. 

Winners receive no compensation for 

the work, except a signed pane of their 

stamps; however, winners retain the 

copyright to their artwork and may sell 

the original and prints of their designs, 

which are sought by hunters, 

conservationists, and art collectors. 

For the Duck Stamp Contest, the 

Service selects five or fewer species of 

waterfowl each year; each entry must 

employ one of the Service-designated 

species as the dominant feature (defined 

as being in the foreground and clearly 

the focus of attention). In 2020 a 

permanent theme was established, and 

participants are currently also required 

to include a mandatory waterfowl 

hunting accessory or waterfowl hunting 

scene within their design. These may 

include objects such as hunting dogs, 

waterfowl decoys, waterfowl hunters 

and scenes illustrating the theme 

‘‘celebrating our waterfowl hunting 

heritage.’’ Designs may also include 

national wildlife refuges as the 

background of habitat scenes, noneligible species, or other scenes that 

depict uses of the stamp for 

conservation and collecting purposes. 

Entries may be in any media, except for 

photography or computer-generated art. 

Designs must be the contestants’ 

original hand-drawn creation and may 

not be copied or duplicated from 

previously published art, including 

photographs, or from images in any 

format published on the internet. 

History of the Junior Duck Stamp 

Contest 

The Federal Junior Duck Stamp 

Conservation and Design Program 

(Junior Duck Stamp Program) began in 

1989 as an extension of the Migratory 

Bird Conservation and Hunting Stamp. 

The national Junior Duck Stamp art 

contest started in 1993, and the first 

stamp design was selected from entries 

from eight participating States. The 

program was recognized by Congress 

with the 1994 enactment of the Junior 

Duck Stamp Conservation and Design 

Program Act (16 U.S.C. 719). All 50 

States, Washington DC, and 2 of the U.S. 

Territories currently participate in the 

annual contest. 

The Junior Duck Stamp Program 

introduces wetland and waterfowl 

conservation to students in kindergarten 

through high school. It crosses cultural, 

ethnic, social, and geographic 

boundaries to teach greater awareness 

and guide students in exploring our 

nation’s natural resources. It is the 

Service’s premier conservation 

education initiative. 

The Junior Duck Stamp Program 

includes a dynamic art-and-sciencebased curriculum. This nontraditional 

pairing of subjects brings new interest to 

both the sciences and the arts. The 

program teaches students across the 

nation conservation through the arts, 

using scientific and wildlife observation 

principles to encourage visual 

communication about what they learn. 

Four curriculum guides, with activities 

and resources, were developed for use 

as a year-round study plan to assist 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 131 / Tuesday, July 13, 2021 / Notices 36761 

students in exploring science in real-life 

situations. 

Modeled after the Federal Duck 

Stamp Contest, the annual Junior Duck 

Stamp Art and Conservation Message 

Contest (Junior Duck Stamp Contest) 

was developed as a visual assessment of 

a student’s learning and progression. 

The Junior Duck Stamp Contest 

encourages partnerships among Federal 

and State government agencies, 

nongovernmental organizations, 

businesses, and volunteers to help 

recognize and honor thousands of 

teachers and students throughout the 

United States for their participation in 

conservation-related activities. Since 

2000, the contest has received more 

than 530,000 entries. 

The winning artwork from the 

national art contest serves as the design 

for the Junior Duck Stamp, which the 

Service produces annually. This $5 

stamp has become a much sought after 

collector’s item. One hundred percent of 

the revenue from the sale of Junior Duck 

stamps goes to support recognition and 

environmental education activities for 

students who participate in the 

program. More than $1.25 million in 

Junior Duck Stamp proceeds have been 

used to provide recognition, incentives, 

and scholarships to participating 

students, teachers, and schools. The 

Program continues to educate youth 

about land stewardship and the 

importance of connecting to the natural 

world. Several students who have 

participated in the Junior Duck Stamp 

Program have gone on to become fulltime wildlife artists and conservation 

professionals; many attribute their 

interest and success to their early 

exposure to the Junior Duck Stamp 

Program. 

Who Can Enter the Federal Duck Stamp 

and Junior Duck Stamp Contests 

The Duck Stamp Contest is open to all 

U.S. citizens, nationals, and resident 

aliens who are at least 18 years of age 

by June 1. Individuals enrolled in 

kindergarten through grade 12 may 

participate in the Junior Duck Stamp 

Contest. All eligible students are 

encouraged to participate in the Junior 

Duck Stamp Conservation and Design 

Program annual art and conservation 

message contest as part of the program 

curriculum through public, private, and 

homeschools, as well as through 

nonformal educational experiences such 

as those found in scouting, art studios, 

and nature centers. 

Entry Requirements 

Each entry in the Duck Stamp Contest 

requires a completed entry form and an 

entry fee. Information required on the 

entry form includes: 

• ‘‘Display, Participation & 

Reproduction Rights Agreement’’ 

certification form; 

• Basic contact information (name, 

address, phone numbers, and email 

address); 

• Date of birth (to verify eligibility); 

• Species portrayed and medium 

used; and 

• Name of hometown newspaper (for 

press coverage). 

Each entry in the Junior Duck Stamp 

Contest requires a completed entry form 

that requests: 

• Basic contact information (name, 

address, phone numbers, and email 

address); 

• Age/grade (to verify eligibility and 

so they may be judged with their peers); 

• Parent’s name and contact 

information (email address and phone 

numbers); 

• Whether the student has a Social 

Security or VISA immigration number 

or is a foreign exchange student (to 

verify eligibility to receive prizes); 

• Title, species, medium/style used, 

and conservation message associated 

with the drawing; 

• Basic contact information for their 

teacher and school (name, address, 

phone numbers, school/studio/ 

organization/troop name, and email 

address); and 

• Certification of authenticity. 

Students in grades 7 through 12 and 

all national level students are also 

required to include citations for any 

resources they used to develop their 

designs. We use this information to 

verify that the student has not 

plagiarized or copied someone else’s 

work. The Service also translates entry 

forms into other appropriate languages 

to increase the understanding of the 

rules and what the parents and students 

are signing.

Abstract: The National Wildlife 

Refuge System Administration Act of 

1966 (Administration Act; 16 U.S.C. 

668dd–668ee), as amended by the 

National Wildlife Refuge System 

Improvement Act of 1997, consolidated 

all refuge units into a single National 

Wildlife Refuge System (system). It also 

authorized us to offer visitor and public 

programs, including those facilitated by 

commercial visitor and management 

support services, on lands of the system 

when we find that the activities are 

appropriate and compatible with the 

purpose(s) for which the refuge was 

established and the system’s mission. 

The Refuge Recreation Act of 1962 

(Recreation Act; 16 U.S.C. 460k–460k–4) 

allows the use of refuges for public 

recreation when it is not inconsistent or 

does not interfere with the primary 

purpose(s) of the refuge. The Alaska 

National Interest Lands Conservation 

Act (ANILCA; 16 U.S.C. 3101 et seq.) 

provides specific authorization and 

guidance for the administration and 

management of national wildlife refuges 

within the State of Alaska. Its provisions 

provide for the issuance of permits 

under certain circumstances. 

We issue special use permits for a 

specific period as determined by the 

type and location of the management 

activity or visitor service provided. 

These permits authorize activities such 

as: 

• Agricultural activities (haying and 

grazing, 50 CFR 29.1 and 29.2). 

• Beneficial management tools that 

we use to provide the best habitat 

possible on some refuges (50 CFR 30.11, 

31.14, 31.16, and 36.41). 

• Special events, group visits, and 

other one-time events (50 CFR 25.41, 

25.61, 26.36, and 36.41). 

• Recreational visitor service 

operations (50 CFR 25.41, 25.61, and 

36.41). 

• Guiding for fishing, hunting, 

wildlife education, and interpretation 

(50 CFR 25.41 and 36.41). 

• Commercial filming (43 CFR 5, 50 

CFR 27.71) and other commercial 

activities (50 CFR 29.1 and 36.41). 

• Building and using cabins to 

support subsistence or commercial 

activities (in Alaska) (50 CFR 26.35 and 

36.41). 

• Research, inventory and 

monitoring, and other noncommercial 

activities (50 CFR 26.36 and 36.41). 

We use three forms to collect 

applicant information: 

• FWS Form 3–1383–G (General 

Activities Special Use Application). 

• FWS Form 3–1383–C (Commercial 

Activities Special Use Application). 

• FWS Form 3–1383–R (Research and 

Monitoring Special Use Application). 

The information we collect helps 

ensure that: (1) Applicants are aware of 

the types of information that may be 

needed for permit issuance; (2) 

requested activities are appropriate and 

compatible with the purpose(s) for 

which the refuge was established and 

the system’s mission; and (3) the 

applicant is eligible or is the most 

qualified applicant to receive the special 

use permit. 

We may collect the necessary 

information in a non-form format 

(through discussions in person or over 

the phone, over the internet, by email, 

or by letter). In some instances, 

respondents will be able to provide 

information verbally. Often, a simple 

email or letter describing the activity 

will suffice. For activities that might 

have a large impact on refuge resources 

(e.g., commercial visitor services, 

research, etc.), we may require 

applicants to provide more detail on 

operations, techniques, and locations.
