to conduct activities intended to 

enhance the propagation or survival of 

endangered species. With some 

exceptions, the Endangered Species Act 

(ESA) prohibits certain activities that 

constitute take of listed species unless a 

Federal permit is issued that allows 

such activity. The ESA also requires that 

we invite public comment before 

issuing these permits.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), 

invite the public to comment on an 

application for a permit to conduct 

activities intended to promote recovery 

of endangered species. With some 

exceptions, the Endangered Species Act 

(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.; ESA) prohibits 

certain activities with endangered 

species unless a Federal permit allows 

such activity. The ESA also requires that 

we invite public comment before 

issuing this permit. 

Background 

The ESA and our implementing 

regulations in part 17 of title 50 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 

provide for the issuance of permits and 

require that we invite public comment 

before issuing permits for activities 

involving endangered species. A 

recovery permit issued by us under 

section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA 

authorizes the permittee to conduct 

activities with endangered or threatened 

species for scientific purposes that 

promote recovery or for enhancement of 

propagation or survival of the species. 

Our regulations implementing section 

10(a)(1)(A) for these permits are found 

at 50 CFR 17.22 for endangered wildlife 

species, 50 CFR 17.32 for threatened 

wildlife species, 50 CFR 17.62 for 

endangered plant species, and 50 CFR 

17.72 for threatened plant species.

November 17, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, the BLM 

provides 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. 

A Federal Register Notice with a 60- 

day public comment period soliciting 

comments on this collection of 

information was published on April 12, 

2017 (82 FR 17863). The BLM received 

one comment. The comment did not 

address this collection of information. 

Therefore, the BLM did not change the 

collection in response to the comment. 

We are again soliciting comments on 

the proposed ICR that is described 

below. We are especially interested in 

public comments addressing the 

following issues: (1) Is the collection 

necessary to the proper functions of the 

BLM; (2) will this information be 

processed and used in a timely manner; 

(3) is the estimate of burden accurate; 

(4) how might the BLM enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (5) how 

might the BLM minimize the burden of 

this collection on the respondents, 

including through the use of 

information technology. 

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 BLM is required by the 

Taylor Grazing Act (43 U.S.C. 315–315r) 

and Subchapter IV of the Federal Land 

Policy and Management Act (43 U.S.C. 

1751–1753) to manage domestic 

livestock grazing on public lands 

consistent with land use plans, 

principles of multiple use and sustained 

yield, and other relevant factors. 

Compliance with these statutory 

provisions necessitates collection of 

information on matters such as 

permittee and lessee qualifications for a 

grazing permit or lease, base property 

used in conjunction with public lands, 

and the actual use of public lands for 

domestic livestock grazing. Most 

permits and leases are in effect for 10 

years and are renewable if the BLM 

determines that the terms and 

conditions of the expiring permit or 

lease are being met. 

Title of Collection: Authorizing 

Grazing Use. 

OMB Control Number: 1004–0041. 

Form Numbers: 4130–1, 4130–1a, 

4130–1b, 4130–3a, 4130–4, 4130–5. 

Type of Review: Extension of 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: Any 

U.S. citizen or validly licensed business 

may apply for a BLM grazing permit or 

lease. The BLM administers nearly 

18,000 permits and leases for grazing 

domestic livestock, at least part of the 

year on public lands. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Respondents: 15,000. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 33,810. 

Estimated Completion Time per 

Response: Varies from 10 to 35 minutes, 

depending on the activity. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 7,811. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain a benefit. 

Frequency of Collection: The BLM 

collects the information on Forms 4130– 

1, 4130–1a, 4130–1b, and 4130–4 on 

occasion. The BLM collects the 

information on Forms 4130–3a and 

4130–5 annually.
