application form. We also do not plan 

to make changes to the annual report 

forms contained in this collection. 

However, we do anticipate proposing 

the following changes to certain permit 

application forms contained in this 

collection, to include: 

• Applicants will be able to select the 

type of business they manage (for-profit, 

small business, farm, not-for-profit, or 

government entity). 

• Requesting businesses using 

ePermits provide email addresses for 

both the principal officer and the 

business. 

• The signature block will be 

replaced by with electronic submission 

of the online applications. 

• The ePermits system will also: 

—Allow users to apply on behalf of 

another individual or business as a 

new way to identify if a consultant is 

applying for a client. 

—Ask for the name of the authorized 

individual to include on the permit 

and will allow a business to nickname 

their applications. 

—Ask the applicant to identify the 

location where the majority of the 

authorized activities will occur. 

—Ask the applicant to identify the 

physical address of the preparer of 

application. 

—Ask the applicants to identify if they 

are tax exempt. 

—Prompt applicants to provide their 

preferred contact method. 

—Prompt the applicant to describe 

changes associated with amendments 

or renewals (with changes) of their 

permit. 

—Prompt applicants to opt in or out to 

release their information for all 

applications except migratory bird 

rehabilitation permits (businesses are 

automatically opted in). 

—Prompt the applicant to provide a 

parent permit number, which allows 

the ePermits System to direct the user 

to the correct version of their permit 

for renewals or amendments to a 

permit. 

Falconry Program 

We propose to modify FWS Form 3– 

186A to update the field ‘‘USFWS Band 

Number’’ to say ‘‘USFWS/State/Tribe/ 

Territory band number’’ and ’’USFWS 

Permit Number’’ to ‘‘USFWS/State/ 

Tribe/Territory permit number.’’ 

Migratory Bird Permit Program Service 

Manual Chapters 

With this submission, we will seek 

OMB approval of the Migratory Bird 

Permit Program Handbook and 

associated Service Manual chapters at 

724 FW 1 (‘‘Migratory Bird Permits’’) 

and 724 FW 2 (‘‘Migratory Bird 

Management’’), all of which contain 

information collections. The Handbook 

provides detailed procedures and other 

operational information to implement 

the Service Manual chapters in part 724 

and more generally in part 720. 

New and existing information 

collections contained in the Handbook 

requiring OMB approval include the 

following: 

• Renewal procedures associated 

with the reauthorization of an existing 

permit (with or without changes to the 

conditions); 

• Reinstatement procedures 

associated with the reauthorization of 

an existing permit (with or without 

changes to the conditions); 

• Discontinuance procedures at the 

permittee’s request to discontinue a 

valid permit; 

• Solicitation of appropriate 

documentation from entities authorized 

to act on behalf of State, local, Tribal, 

and Federal government agencies to 

verify their exempt status for fee 

exemption purposes; 

• Fee waiver request process as 

outlined in 50 CFR 13.11(d)(3)(iii); 

• Requests for reconsideration of a 

denial, partial denial, suspension, or 

revocation of a permit (requiring 

submission of a written request with the 

required information in 50 CFR 13.29(b) 

within 45 days after the permit 

decision); and 

• Appeals of reconsideration request 

decisions (requiring the permittee 

submit a written request to the Regional 

Director (see 50 CFR 13.29(e)) within 45 

days of the reconsideration decision). 

The public may request copies of any 

form or document contained in this 

information collection by sending a 

request to the Service Information 

Collection Clearance Officer in

A Federal Register notice with a 60- 

day public comment period soliciting 

comments on this collection of 

information was published on

comments were received. 

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 the agency might 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

we cannot guarantee that we will be 

able to do so. 

Abstract: We have developed an 

online application for project 

collaborators and volunteers to watch 

video clips that were collected from 

caribou collars (animal-borne video 

collars) and enter information about the 

behaviors and habitats observed in the 

clips. Information collected from the 

participants will be analyzed (scored) to 

describe caribou foraging behavior, how 

it varies across the summer, and the 

factors that influence it. This 

information is being collected as part of 

a long-term project to understand how 

climate variability influences caribou 

forage conditions, behaviors, 

distributions, and population dynamics. 

Results of the analyses will be 

published in peer-reviewed scientific 

publications that will be available to the 

public.
