Information Collection Requirement 

Title: Military Severely Injured Joint 

Support Operations Center (MSIJSOC) 

and Travel Protocol Office (TPO) 

Programs. 

Type of Request: Extension. 

OMB Control Number: 1652–0069. 

Form(s): TSA Form 412, Travel 

Support Request and TSA Form 417 

Screening Assistance Notification. 

Affected Public: Wounded warriors, 

severely injured military personnel, 

foreign dignitaries, accredited 

Ambassadors to the United States, and 

other travelers requiring an escort 

through the airport security screening 

process. 

Abstract: The Helping Heroes Fly Act 

directs TSA to develop and implement 

a process to support and facilitate the 

ease of travel and, to the extent possible, 

provide expedited passenger screening 

services for severely injured or disabled 

members of the Armed Forces and 

severely injured or disabled veterans 

through passenger screening. See sec. 2 

of the Helping Heroes Fly Act, Public 

Law 113–27 (127 Stat. 503; Aug. 9, 

2013) as amended and codified at 49 

U.S.C. 44927. Consistent with these 

requirements, TSA established the 

MSIJSOC program to support and 

facilitate the movement of wounded 

warriors, severely injured military 

personnel, and severely injured or 

disabled veterans. Under the Aviation 

and Transportation Security Act 

(ATSA), TSA is responsible for security 

in all modes of transportation including 

screening operations for passenger air 

transportation and for carrying out such 

other duties relating to the 

transportation security as it considers 

appropriate. See sec. 101(a) of the 

ATSA, Public Law 107–71 (115 Stat. 

597; Nov. 19, 2001) as codified at 49 

U.S.C. 114. Under ATSA, TSA 

established the Travel Protocol Office 

(TPO) Programs to assist foreign 

dignitaries, accredited Ambassadors to 

the United States, and other travelers 

requiring an escort through the airport 

security screening process. 

To implement the MSIJSCO and TPO 

programs, TSA must collect the 

passenger’s name, flight itinerary 

(scheduled flight departure and arrival 

information), and contact information to 

successfully facilitate movements 

through the screening process at U.S. 

airports and its territories. TSA shares 

this information with airports on the 

passenger’s itinerary to coordinate 

efforts, to synchronize seamless 

transitions with the affected parties, and 

protect security operations. 

Number of Respondents: 8,456. 

Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An 

estimated 705 hours annually. 

Dated: August 20, 2021.

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 May 14, 2020, we published in the 

Federal Register (85 FR 28972) a notice 

of our intent to request that OMB 

approve this information collection. In 

that notice, we solicited comments for 

60 days, ending on July 13, 2020. We 

received the following comments in 

response to that notice: 

Comment 1: Email comment received 

on May 15, 2020, from Jean Public; 

however, her comment did not address 

the information collection requirements. 

Agency Response to Comment 1: No 

response required. 

Comment 2: Email comment received 

on July 9, 2020, from Holly Huchko, 

Endangered Species Act Program 

Specialist/Sport Fish Restoration 

Coordinator, on behalf of the Oregon 

Department of Fish and Wildlife 

(ODFW): 

Ms. Huchko emphasized that the 

national data generated by the FHWAR 

are invaluable for assessing engagement 

in and spending on outdoor recreation 

in Oregon. She stated that the FHWAR 

survey is also essential to USFWS 

WSFR program and ODFW, since 

coastal States must obligate Sport Fish 

Restoration program grant funds so that 

the ratio is equal to the resident marine 

and freshwater anglers (50 CFR 80.65– 

66). Ms. Huchko shared the 

understanding that for the 2022 and 

future FHWAR surveys, States will need 

to pay for State level data if desired, 

though USFWS will continue to provide 

the freshwater/saltwater percent of 

resident anglers in coastal States at no 

cost. This information may be used for 

determining the Sport Fish Restoration 

saltwater/freshwater split. Ms. Huchko’s 

understanding is accurate. Finally, Ms. 

Huchko urged that the FHWAR 

continue to be administered in both 

mail and digital (web) modes, so as to 

reduce barriers to participation. 

Agency Response to Comment 2: The 

methodology for the 2022 FHWAR, 

described above, is responsive to the 

needs identified in Ms. Huchko’s 

comments. Oregon and other coastal 

States will continue to receive data on 

the number of freshwater/saltwater 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
47656 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 163 / Thursday, August 26, 2021 / Notices 

anglers within their respective State, 

free of cost. The 2022 FHWAR will also 

be fielded in both mail and web modes. 

Comment 3: Email comment received 

on July 10, 2020, from Adam Kreger, 

Martha C. Nussbaum Fellow—Wildlife 

Law Program, on behalf of Friends of 

Animals: 

On behalf of Friends of Animals, Mr. 

Kreger endorsed the FHWAR data 

collection. He pointed to trends in 

decreasing participation in hunting, 

evolving views on hunting and fishing 

among Americans, and the need to 

gather reliable data on these topics. 

Kreger argues that FWS and State 

agencies should use the FHWAR and 

other surveys to assess ‘‘future needs 

and demands’’—namely, in the areas of 

wildlife observation and photography. 

Agency Response to Comment 3: The 

FHWAR questionnaires will 

systematically collect information about 

three major activities: Fishing, hunting, 

and wildlife watching. Our processes 

and questionnaires devote equal 

emphasis to each of these three major 

activities. 

The survey defines wildlife watching 

as taking a special interest in observing 

or viewing wildlife through any of the 

following activities: 

• Closely observing wildlife or trying 

to identify types of wildlife you did not 

know; 

• Photographing wildlife; 

• Feeding birds or other wildlife; 

• Maintaining natural areas such as 

wooded lots, hedgerows, or open fields 

of at least one-quarter acre for the 

benefit of wildlife, not including 

farmland; 

• Maintaining plantings such as 

shrubs or agricultural crops for the 

benefit of wildlife; and 

• Visiting parks and natural areas to 

observe, photograph, or feed wildlife. 

The data from these items will allow 

for analyses of trends in wildlife 

watching among Americans, including 

but not limited to wildlife observation 

and photography. Similarly, detailed 

questions about hunting and fishing will 

allow for trend analysis surrounding 

those major activities. 

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 

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: The information collected 

for the National Survey of Fishing, 

Hunting and Wildlife-Associated 

Recreation (FHWAR) assists the Fish 

and Wildlife Service in administering 

the Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration 

grant programs. The 2022 FHWAR 

survey will provide up-to-date 

information on the uses and demands 

for wildlife-related recreation resources 

and a basis for developing and 

evaluating programs and projects to 

meet existing and future needs. 

We collect the information in 

conjunction with carrying out our 

responsibilities under the DingellJohnson Sport Fish Restoration Act (16 

U.S.C. 777–777m) and the PittmanRobertson Wildlife Restoration Act (16 

U.S.C. 669–669i). Under these acts, as 

amended, we provide approximately $1 

billion in grants annually to States for 

projects that support sport fish and 

wildlife management and restoration, 

including: 

• Improvement of fish and wildlife 

habitats, 

• Fishing and boating access, 

• Fish stocking, and 

• Hunting and fishing opportunities. 

We also provide grants for aquatic 

education and hunter education, 

maintenance of completed projects, and 

research into problems affecting fish 

and wildlife resources. These projects 

help to ensure that the American people 

have adequate opportunities for fish and 

wildlife recreation. We conduct the 

survey about every 5 years. The 2022 

FHWAR survey will be the 14th 

conducted since 1955. We sponsor the 

survey at the States’ request, which is 

made through the Association of Fish 

and Wildlife Agencies. We contract with 

the National Opinion Research Center 

(NORC) at the University of Chicago, 

which collects the information using 

internet, telephone, or mail-in paperand-pencil instrument (PAPI). 

Respondents are invited to take the 

survey with a mailed letter. NORC will 

select a sample of sportspersons and 

wildlife watchers from a household 

screen and conduct three detailed 

interviews during the survey year. The 

survey collects information on the 

number of days of participation, species 

of animals sought, and expenditures for 

trips and equipment. Information on the 

characteristics of participants includes 

age, income, sex, education, race, and 

State of residence. The Wave 3 

Freshwater/Saltwater Ratio 

Questionnaire is designed to get 

freshwater and saltwater fishing data for 

coastal states. The Wildlife and 

Sportfish Restoration Program is 

required to divide fishing management 

funds according to the ratio of 

freshwater and saltwater anglers in each 

coastal state. 

Federal and State agencies use 

information from the survey to make 

policy decisions related to fish and 

wildlife restoration and management. 

Participation patterns and trend 

information help identify present and 

future needs and demands. Land 

management agencies use the data on 

expenditures and participation to assess 

the value of wildlife-related recreational 

uses of natural resources. Wildliferelated recreation expenditure 

information is used to estimate the 

impact on the economy and to support 

the dedication of tax revenues for fish 

and wildlife restoration programs. 

Title of Collection: National Survey of 

Fishing, Hunting, and WildlifeAssociated Recreation (FHWAR). 

OMB Control Number: 1018–0088. 

Form Number: None.
