SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The USGS Bird Banding Laboratory is 

responsible for monitoring the trapping 

and marking of wild migratory birds by 

persons holding Federal permits. The 

Bird Banding Laboratory collects 

information using three forms: (1) The 

Application for Federal Bird Marking 

and Salvage Permit, (2) The Permit 

Renewal Form, and (3) The Bird 

Banding Recovery Report. 

We will protect information from 

respondents considered proprietary 

under the Freedom of Information Act 

(5 U.S.C. 552) and it’s implementing 

regulations (43 CFR part 2), and under 

regulations at 30 CFR 250.197, ‘‘Data 

and information to be made available to 

the public or for limited inspection.’’ 

Responses are voluntary. No questions 

of a ‘‘sensitive’’ nature are asked. 

II. Data 

OMB Control Number: 1028–0082. 

Form Number: Various (12 forms). 

Title: Bird Banding and Recovery 

Reports. 

Type of Request: Revision of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

Respondent Obligation: None. 

Participation is voluntary. 

Frequency of Collection: On occasion. 

Description of Respondents: General 

Public. 

Estimated Total Number of Annual 

Responses: 46,990 from the individuals 

and households and 1610 from state/

local/tribal governments. 

Estimated Time per Response: 3 to 30 

minutes, depending on form used. The 

band recovery form receives 

approximately 42,900 responses from 

individuals and households and 1,000 

responses from state/local/tribal 

governments annually. The permit 

application form receives approximately 

90 responses from individuals and 

households and 10 responses from the 

state/local/tribal governments. The 

permit renewal form receives 

approximately 500 responses from 

individuals and households and 100 

responses from state/local/tribal 

governments annually. Bandit receives 

approximately 3500 responses from 

individuals and households and 500 

responses from state/local/tribal 

governments annually. 

Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 

19,533 hours. 

Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping ‘‘Non-Hour Cost’’ 

Burden: 

We have not identified any ‘‘non-hour 

cost’’ burdens associated with this 

collection of information. 

Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA 

(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an 

agency may not conduct or sponsor and 

you are not required to respond to a 

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number and current expiration date. 

Comments: On 9/29/2015 we 

published a Federal Register notice (80 

FR 58499) announcing that we would 

submit this ICR to OMB for approval 

and soliciting comments. The comment 

period closed on [December 1, 2015]. 

We received one comment. The 

comment did not directly relate to this 

collection, but rather is a negative 

response to the capture and marking of 

birds in general and other actions 

related to bird management. There were 

no direct comments about any of the 

data collection forms so the comment 

appears to be irrelevant to this process. 

III. Request for Comments 

We again invite comments concerning 

this ICR as to: (a) Whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the agency to perform its duties, 

including whether the information is 

useful; (b) the accuracy of the agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information; (c) how to 

enhance the quality, usefulness, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) how to minimize the 

burden on the respondents, including 

the use of automated collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology. 

Please note that comments submitted 

in response to this notice are a matter 

of public record. Before including your 

personal mailing address, phone 

number, email address, or other 

personally identifiable information in 

your comment, you should be aware 

that your entire comment, including 

your personally identifiable 

information, may be made publicly 

available at any time. While you can ask 

us and the OMB in your comment to 

withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that it will be done.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

Under 54 U.S.C. 100101 (National 

Park Service Act Organic Act), we must 

preserve America’s natural wonders 

unimpaired for future generations, 

while also making them available for the 

enjoyment of the visitor. Meeting this 

mandate requires that we balance 

preservation with use. Maintaining a 

good balance requires both information 

and limits. In accordance with 

regulations at 36 CFR parts 1 through 7, 

13, 20, and 34, we issue permits for 

special park uses. Special park uses 

cover a wide range of activities 

including, but not limited to, special 

events, First Amendment activities, 

grazing and agricultural use, 

commercial filming, still photography, 

construction, and vehicle access. 

We currently use the below listed 

forms to collect information for special 

use permits. 

• 10–930 (Application for Special Use 

Permit), 

• 10–930S (Application for Special 

Use Permit (short form)). The short form 

will reduce the burden on applicants for 

smaller, less complicated activities, 

such as small picnics, gatherings, 

weddings, etc. 

• 10–931 (Application for 

Commercial Filming/Still Photography 

Permit (short form)), 

• 10–932 (Application for 

Commercial Filming/Still Photography 

Permit (long form)) to collect 

information for special use permits. 

• Form 10–933 (Application for 

Vehicle Use). This new form applies 

specifically to vehicle access such as 

off-road, over-sand, or commercial 

vehicle access, as well as snow mobile 

and watercraft. We will only request
