Abstract: The Endangered Species Act

(1) FWS Form 3–200–2 (Designated

wildlife or wildlife products at ports
other than those designated in 50 CFR
14.12 unless you qualify for an
exception. These exceptions allow

qualified individuals, businesses, or
scientific organizations to import or
export wildlife or wildlife products at a
nondesignated port:
(a) When the wildlife or wildlife
products will be used as scientific
specimens.
(b) To minimize deterioration or loss.
(c) To relieve economic hardship.
To request an import or export of
wildlife or wildlife products at
nondesignated ports, applicants must
complete FWS Form 3–200–2.
Designated port exception permits are
valid for 2 years. We may require a
permittee to file a report on activities
conducted under authority of the
permit.
(2) FWS Form 3–200–3 (Import/
Export License). It is unlawful to import
or export wildlife or wildlife products
for commercial purposes without first
obtaining an import/export license (50
CFR 14.91). Applicants must complete
FWS Form 3–200–3 to request this
license. We use the information that we
collect on the application as an
enforcement tool and management aid
to: (a) Monitor the international wildlife
market and (b) detect trends and
changes in the commercial trade of
wildlife and wildlife products. Import/
export licenses are valid for 1 year. We
may require a licensee to file a report on
activities conducted under authority of
the import/export license.
Permittees and licensees must
maintain records that accurately
describe each importation or
exportation of wildlife or wildlife
products made under the license, and
any additional sale or transfer of the
wildlife or wildlife products. In
addition, licensees must make these
records and the corresponding
inventory of wildlife or wildlife
products available for our inspection at
reasonable times, subject to applicable
limitations of law. We believe the
burden associated with these
recordkeeping requirements is minimal
because the records already exist.
Importers and exporters must complete
FWS Form 3–177 (Declaration for
Importation or Exportation of Fish or
Wildlife) for all imports or exports of
wildlife or wildlife products. This form
provides an accurate description of the
imports and exports. OMB has approved
the information collection for FWS
Form 3–177 and assigned OMB Control
Number 1018–0012. Normal business
practices should produce records (e.g.,
invoices or bills of sale) needed to
document additional sales or transfers
of the wildlife or wildlife products.
Comments: On June 17, 2013, we
published in the Federal Register (78
FR 36236) a notice of our intent to

this information collection. In that
notice, we solicited comments for 60
days, ending on August 16. We received
no comments in response to that notice.
We again invite comments concerning
this information collection on:
• Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary, including
whether or not the information will
have practical utility;
• The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information;
• Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
