46534 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 192 / Thursday, October 5, 2017 / Notices 

of these update previously approved 

schedules, and some include records 

proposed as permanent. 

The schedules listed in this notice are 

media neutral unless otherwise 

specified. An item in a schedule is 

media neutral when an agency may 

apply the disposition instructions to 

records regardless of the medium in 

which it creates or maintains the 

records. Items included in schedules 

submitted to NARA on or after 

December 17, 2007, are media neutral 

unless the item is expressly limited to 

a specific medium. (See 36 CFR 

1225.12(e).) 

Agencies may not destroy Federal 

records without Archivist of the United 

States’ approval. The Archivist approves 

destruction only after thoroughly 

considering the records’ administrative 

use by the agency of origin, the rights 

of the Government and of private people 

directly affected by the Government’s 

activities, and whether or not the 

records have historical or other value. 

In addition to identifying the Federal 

agencies and any subdivisions 

requesting disposition authority, this 

notice lists the organizational unit(s) 

accumulating the records (or notes that 

the schedule has agency-wide 

applicability when schedules cover 

records that may be accumulated 

throughout an agency); provides the 

control number assigned to each 

schedule, the total number of schedule 

items, and the number of temporary 

items (the records proposed for 

destruction); and includes a brief 

description of the temporary records. 

The records schedule itself contains a 

full description of the records at the file 

unit level as well as their disposition. If 

NARA staff has prepared an appraisal 

memorandum for the schedule, it also 

includes information about the records. 

You may request additional information 

about the disposition process at the 

addresses above.

David Schutt, Penguins International, 

PO Box 100483, Denver, CO 80250. 

Activity for Which Permit is Requested

samples of feathers molted from gentoo 

penguins, Pygoscelis papua, (n=2400) 

and fragments from discarded eggshells 

of gentoo penguins (n=50) for use in a 

study of pollutant exposure in penguins 

across a wide latitudinal gradient. The 

applicant plans to collect these 

abandoned biological tissue samples at 

approximately eleven gentoo penguin 

colonies in the Antarctic Peninsula 

region. The applicant will collect 

samples opportunistically from the 

ground or from penguin carcasses from 

the periphery and/or low-density areas 

of the colonies in order to minimize 

disturbance to the penguins. The 

samples will be imported into the USA 

and will be analyzed at the home 

institution.

Elephant Island, South Shetland 

Islands.
