SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Pesticide-Use Proposal. 

OMB Number: 0596–0241. 

Expiration Date of Approval: February 

28, 2022. 

Type of Request: Renewal of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

Abstract: USDA Forest Service (FS) 

has Federal land stewardship 

responsibilities for approximately 193 

million acres. Forest Service land 

management responsibilities require use 

of integrated pest management, which 

in certain circumstances includes use of 

pesticides. The Forest Service currently 

uses form FS–2100–2, Pesticide-Use 

Proposal (PUP) internally to collect and 

review pesticide-applications intended 

to control pests of grasslands and forests 

under its administrative responsibility 

(under FSM 2150, and FSH 2109.14). 

The Forest Service anticipates requests 

from outside entities for application of 

pesticides upon Forest Service 

administered lands within rights-of-way 

easements, permitted lands, and under 

similar circumstances. 

The Forest Service proposes to use the 

PUP form to collect pesticide project 

information from those outside entities 

to facilitate authorization of selected 

activities. Completion of the PUP form 

includes identification of pests to be 

controlled, pesticide to be applied, and 

other regulatory compliance information 

such as use of certified applicators. 

Because diverse pesticide-use projects 

are designed for local conditions, it is 

appropriate for the PUP form to be used 

to ensure that essential details are 

uniformly assembled for review. 

Proposals will be evaluated by Forest 

Service pesticide use coordinators and 

other administrative personnel to 

safeguard human health and ecological 

protection consistent with Forest 

Service land use management programs. 

Form and instructions will be posted on 

a Forest Service website for ready public 

availability. 

Affected Public: Individuals and 

Households, Businesses and 

Organizations, and State, Local or Tribal 

Governments responsible for pest 

control, including vegetation 

management along rights-of-way, upon 

lands administered by the Forest 

Service. 

Estimate of Burden per Response: 12 

hours. 

Estimated Annual Number of 

Respondents: 36. 

Estimated Annual Number of 

Responses: 50. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 600 hours. 

Comment is Invited: Comment is 

invited on: (1) Whether this collection 

of information is necessary for the stated 

purposes and the proper performance of 

the functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical or scientific utility; (2) the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the 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) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including the use of 

automated, electronic, mechanical, or 

other technological collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology. 

All comments received in response to 

this notice, including names and 

addresses when provided, will be a 

matter of public record. Comments will 

be summarized and included in the 

submission request toward Office of 

Management and Budget approval.

PURPOSES OF SUCH USES: 

In addition to those disclosures 

generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 

552a(b) of the Privacy Act, records 

contained in a system may be disclosed 

outside the Department as follows: 

A. To the appropriate agency, whether 

Federal, State, local, Tribal, foreign, or 

other public authority responsible for 

enforcing, investigating, or prosecuting 

such violation or charged with enforcing 

or implementing the statute, or rule, 

regulation, or order issued pursuant 

thereto when a record on its face, or in 

conjunction with other records, 

indicates a violation or potential 

violation of law, whether civil, criminal, 

or regulatory in nature, and whether 

arising by general statute or particular 

program, statute, or by regulation, rule, 

or order issued pursuant thereto, 

disclosure may be made if the 

information disclosed is relevant to any 

enforcement, regulatory, investigative, 

or prospective responsibility of the 

receiving entity.

deemed by the Agency to be relevant 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 126 / Tuesday, July 6, 2021 / Notices 35471 

and necessary to the litigation; 

provided, however, that in each case, 

the Agency determines that disclosure 

of the records to the Department of 

Justice is a use of the information 

contained in the records that is 

compatible with the purpose for which 

the records were collected. 

C. To a Member of Congress or to a 

congressional staff member in response 

to an inquiry of the congressional office 

made at the written request of the 

constituent about whom the record is

Recipients shall be required to comply 

with the requirements of the Privacy Act 

of 1974, as amended, pursuant to 5 

U.S.C. 552a(m). 

E. Disclosure may be made to a 

congressional office from the record of 

an individual in response to an inquiry

interest in the disclosure of the 

information, when disclosure is 

necessary to preserve confidence in the 

integrity of USDA, or when disclosure is 

necessary to demonstrate the 

accountability of USDA’s officers, 

employees, or individuals covered by 

the system, except to the extent the 

Chief Privacy Officer determines that 

release of the specific information in the 

context of a particular case would 

constitute a clearly unwarranted 

invasion of personal privacy. 

DISCLOSURE TO CONSUMER REPORTING

AGENCIES: 

None. 

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORAGE OF

RECORDS: 

All records are stored electronically or 

on paper in secure facilities in a locked 

drawer behind a locked door. The 

records may be stored on digital media. 

Each USDA mission area, agency, and 

staff office creates and maintains proper 

and adequate documentation of the 

organization, functions, policies, 

decisions, procedures, and essential 

transactions of the Department. This 

documentation protects the legal and 

financial rights of the Government and 

of persons directly affected by the 

Department’s activities (44 U.S.C. 3101). 

U.S.C. Title 7, Chapters 55—2204 state 

that the Secretary of Agriculture may 

conduct any survey or other information 

collection and employ any sampling or 

other statistical method that the 

Secretary determines is appropriate. 

The Department is also authorized to 

obtain certain information under Sec. 

515 of the Treasury and General 

Government Appropriations Act for 

Fiscal Year 2001 (44 U.S.C. 3516, Pub. 

L. 106–554) as well as Title 5 Part I 

Chapter 3–301, and 5 U.S.C. 552 552a. 

See also: 5 U.S.C. Chapter 552; 44 

U.S.C. Chapters 21, 29, 31, and 33 

(Records Management); 18 U.S.C. 2071; 

44 U.S.C. 3101 et seq.; 44 U.S.C. 3506; 

Title 7 CFR 2.37; 36 CFR Chapter 12, 

Subpart B; 36 CFR part 1234,

130; NARA General Records Schedules, 

and Forest Service Mission-specific 

records retention schedules approved by 

NARA for NARA Records Group 95. 

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETRIEVABILITY

OF RECORDS: 

Records are maintained in accordance 

with Forest Service records management 

policy and NARA’s General Records 

Schedule and/or NARA-approved 

records schedules for NARA Records 

Group 95. Records are maintained in 

categories organized by subject matter 

under the following file codes: 

• 2800—MINERALS AND GEOLOGY 

• 2810—‘‘MINING CLAIMS’’ 

• 2840—‘‘RECLAMATION’’ 

• 2850—‘‘MINERAL MATERIALS’’ 

• 2860—‘‘FOREST SERVICE 

AUTHORIZED PROSPECTING AND 

MINERAL COLLECTING’’ 

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND

DISPOSAL OF RECORDS: 

Records covered by this Privacy Act 

System of Records Notices (SORN) are 

managed according to records retention 

schedules approved by NARA. Records 

schedules used to retain and manage 

records are found in Chapter 40 of 

Forest Service Handbook 6209.11— 

Records Management Handbook. This 

Handbook is available on the Forest 

Service website at https://

www.fs.usda.gov/about-agency/ 

regulations-policies. All unscheduled 

records—meaning records without a 

NARA-approved records retention 

schedule—are retained until a records 

retention schedule is approved by 

NARA. Once a schedule is approved, all 

existing records will be processed 

according to the requirements set forth 

in that schedule. 

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL

SAFEGUARDS: 

When applicable, paper records are 

kept in a locked or secured office or 

office building, and/or retained in a 

Forest Service secured computer system 

and can only be accessed by authorized 

Forest Service employees. Department/ 

Forest Service safeguards electronic 

records in this system according to 

applicable rules and policies, including 

all applicable automated systems’ 

security and access policies. The Forest 

Service has imposed strict controls to 

minimize the risk of compromising 

stored information. System access, 

including access to records stored in an 

Agency approved repository (such as 

Pinyon or its successor), is limited to 

individuals with appropriate clearances 

or permissions who need to know the 

information for performance of official 

duties. 

The NRM applications, which houses 

the information in this system, have 

Oracle roles defined in the database. 

These roles define what level of access 

a user assigned that Oracle role may 

have. The User Management 

Application (UMA) is used to assign 

these roles, as well as to determining 

what subsets of the data—referred to as 

organizational units—a user may have 

access. UMA has an automated process 

to request and approve access to 

applications on the NRM General 

Support System. A user requests 

specific roles and organizational codes 

that allow access to specific subsets of 

data. The request is automatically 

forwarded to the requester’s UMA 

Manager who approves or denies the 

request. The UMA manager is 

responsible for determining what level 

of access a given user requires to fulfill 

job responsibilities. 

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES: 

Individuals seeking access to records 

contained in this system of records, or 

seeking to contest content, may submit 

a request in writing to the Forest Service 

FOIA/Privacy Act Officer (contact 

information at https://

www.dm.usda.gov/foia/poc.htm). If an 

individual believes more than one 

Department component maintains 

Privacy Act records concerning him or 

her, the individual may submit the 

request to the Departmental Freedom of 

Information Act Officer, 1400 

Independence Avenue SW, South 

Building Room 4104, Washington, DC 

20250–0706, email: USDAFOIA@

ocio.usda.gov. 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
35472 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 126 / Tuesday, July 6, 2021 / Notices 

The request should include a daytime 

phone number and email. Provide as 

much information as possible about the 

subject matter of the records you are 

requesting. This will help facilitate the 

search process. 

If you are making a request for records 

about yourself, you may receive greater 

access by providing either a notarized 

statement or a statement signed under 

penalty of perjury stating that you are 

the person who you say you are. 

Provide your full name, date, and 

either: (1) Have your signature 

witnessed by a notary; or (2) include the 

following statement immediately above 

the signature on your request letter: ‘‘I 

declare under penalty of perjury that the 

foregoing is true and correct. Executed 

on [date].’’ Requests that do not contain 

the required declaration will be 

processed under FOIA, and, if records 

are found, you may not receive as much 

information, including information 

about you. If additional information is 

required to fulfill a Privacy Act request, 

you will be notified. 

If you want records about yourself to 

be released to a third party (such as a 

law firm or other organization 

requesting records on your behalf), the 

third party may receive greater access if 

they have permission from you. 

You will need a signed and dated 

statement that the Forest Service may 

release records pertaining to you. 

Include your name; date of birth; name 

of the person or organization to whom 

you want your records disclosed (where 

applicable); their contact information; 

list of records that may be released (all, 

emails, medical records, etc.). The 

person about whom the records will be 

released should include a statement 

indicating that they understand that 

knowingly or willingly seeking or 

obtaining access to records about 

another person under false pretenses 

and or without their consent is 

punishable by a fine of up to $5,000. 

Requests must be for access to 

existing records. The Forest Service 

FOIA Office will not create records for 

the purpose of responding to a FOIA or 

Privacy Act request. 

FOIA excludes Federal agencies from 

its definition of persons permitted to 

make FOIA requests [see 5 U.S.C. 

552(a)(3)(A) and 5 U.S.C. 551(2)]. To 

avoid confusion as to whether Federal 

employees are requesting information in 

their personal or official capacities, 

requests from Federal employees should 

be submitted using personal resources. 

CONTESTING RECORDS PROCEDURES: 

Any individual may contest 

information contained within a record 

in the system that pertains to him/her 

by submitting a written request to the 

system manager at the address above. 

Include the reason for contesting the 

record and the proposed amendment to 

the information with supporting 

documentation to show how the record 

is inaccurate.

Conroe, Texas; Notification of 

Proposed Production Activity; LUC 

Urethanes, Inc. (Wheels, Rollers and 

Friction Pads for Industrial Machinery 

and Material Conveyance), Conroe, 

Texas 

The City of Conroe, Texas, grantee of 

FTZ 265, submitted a notification of 

proposed production activity to the FTZ 

Board on behalf of LUC Urethanes, Inc. 

(LUC), located in Conroe, Texas. The 

notification conforming to the 

requirements of the regulations of the 

FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was 

received on June 17, 2021. 

The LUC facility is located within 

FTZ 265. The facility is used for the 

production of wheels, rollers and 

friction pads for industrial machinery 

and material conveyance. Pursuant to 15 

CFR 400.14(b), FTZ activity would be 

limited to the specific foreign-status 

materials and components and specific 

finished products described in the 

submitted notification (as described 

below) and subsequently authorized by 

the FTZ Board. 

Production under FTZ procedures 

could exempt LUC from customs duty 

payments on the foreign-status 

components used in export production. 

On its domestic sales, for the foreignstatus materials/components noted 

below, LUC would be able to choose the 

duty rates during customs entry 

procedures that apply to wheels, rollers 

and friction pads for industrial 

machinery and material conveyance 

(duty rate ranges from duty-free—3.1%). 

LUC would be able to avoid duty on 

foreign-status components which 

become scrap/waste. Customs duties 

also could possibly be deferred or 

reduced on foreign-status production 

equipment. 

The components and materials 

sourced from abroad include: Various 

chain extenders [1, 4 Butanediol; 2- 

Methylpropyl 3.5-diamino-4-
