Title of Proposal: Single Family

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: FHA 

insures mortgages on single family 

dwellings under various provisions of 

the National Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 

1701, et seq.). The Housing and Urban 

Rural Recovery Act (HURRA), Pub. L. 

98–181, amended the National Housing 

Act to add Section 247 to permit FHA 

to insure mortgages for properties 

located on Hawaiian Homelands. Under 

this program, the mortgagor must be a 

Native Hawaiian. Section 247 requires 

that that the Department of Hawaiian 

Homelands (DHHL) of the State of 

Hawaii (a) Will be a co-mortgagor; (b) 

guarantees or reimburses the Secretary 

for any mortgage insurance claims paid 

in connection with a property on 

Hawaiian homelands; or (c) offers other 

security acceptable to the Secretary. The 

collection of information and the 

regulatory origins for them are in 

accordance with Section 203.43i which 

states that the lender will: (a) Verify that 

the loan applicant is a native Hawaiian 

and that the applicant holds a lease on 

land in a Hawaiian Homelands area; (b) 

report on delinquent borrowers in

collection including number of 

respondents, frequency of response, and

number of hours needed to prepare the 

information collection is 1,744; the 

number of respondents is 504 generating 

approximately 1,456 annual responses; 

the frequency of response is on 

occasion; and the number of hours per 

response varies from 2 minutes to 30 

minutes. 

Status of the proposed information 

collection: This is an extension of a 

currently approved collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 22, 2008, we published 

a notice of availability of the Draft 

Recovery Plan for the Prairie Species of 

Western Oregon and Southwestern 

Washington (73 FR 54603). The Notice 

announced a public comment period on 

this draft recovery plan, but the closing 

date of the comment period was 

erroneously omitted from the notice of 

availability. We wish to clarify that the 

public comment period closes on 

December 22, 2008. 

Recovery of endangered or threatened 

animals and plants is a primary goal of 

our endangered species program and the 

Endangered Species Act (Act) (16 U.S.C. 

1531 et seq.). Recovery means 

improvement of the status of listed 

species to the point at which listing is 

no longer appropriate under the criteria 

set out in section 4(a)(1) of the Act. 

Recovery plans describe actions 

considered necessary for the 

conservation of the species, establish 

criteria for downlisting or delisting 

listed species, and estimate the time for, 

and cost of implementing the measures 

needed for recovery. 

The Act requires the development of 

recovery plans for listed species unless 

such a plan would not promote the 

conservation of a particular species. 

Section 4(f) of the Act requires that 

public notice and an opportunity for 

public review and comment be provided 

during recovery plan development. We 

will consider all information presented 

during the public comment period prior 

to approval of each new or revised 

recovery plan. Substantive technical 

comments may result in changes to the 

plan. Substantive comments regarding 

recovery plan implementation may not 

necessarily result in changes to the 

recovery plan, but will be forwarded to 

appropriate Federal or other entities so 

that they can take these comments into 

account during the course of 

implementing recovery actions. 

Public Comments Solicited 

We solicit written comments on the 

draft recovery plan. All comments 

received by the date specified above 

will be considered prior to approval of 

this plan. If you wish to comment, you 

may submit your comments and 

materials concerning this recovery plan 

by any of these methods: 

1. You may submit written comments 

and information by mail, facsimile or in 

person to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife 

Office at the above address (see 

ADDRESSES). 

2. You may send comments by 

electronic mail (e-mail) to: 

FW1PrairieRecoveryPlan@fws.gov. If 

you submit comments by e-mail, please 

submit them as an ASCII file and avoid 

the use of special characters and any 

form of encryption. Please also include 

your name and return address in your 

e-mail message. 

Comments and materials received, as 

well as supporting documentation used 

in preparation of the recovery plan, will 

be available for inspection, during 

normal business hours at the above 

Portland address (see ADDRESSES). 

Public Availability of Comments 

Before including your address, phone 

number, e-mail 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 we will try to honor a written 

request to withhold your personal 

identifying information from public 

review, we cannot guarantee that we 

will be able to do so. 

Authority: The authority for this action is 

section 4(f) of the Endangered Species Act, 

16 U.S.C. 1533 (f). 

Dated: September 29, 2008.
