approval for our information collection
associated with the Federal subsistence
regulations. The current OMB control
number for this information collection
is 1018–0075, which expires August 31,
2006. We will request that OMB renew
approval of this information collection
for a 3-year term.
DATES: You must submit comments on
or before May 1, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Send your comments on the
information collection to Hope Grey,
Information Collection Clearance

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB
regulations at 5 CFR 1320, which
implement provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), require that interested members

Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 41 / Thursday, March 2, 2006 / Notices
of the public and affected agencies have
an opportunity to comment on
information collection and
recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR
1320.8(d)). Federal agencies may not
conduct or sponsor and a person is not
required to respond to a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The Alaska National Interest Lands
Conservation Act (ANILCA) and Fish
and Wildlife Service regulations at 50
CFR 100 require that persons engaged in
taking fish and wildlife on public lands
in Alaska report their take to the Federal
Subsistence Board (Board) and that rural
residents who want to participate in
special hunts or fisheries must apply for
and obtain a special permit to do so. We
use forms 7FS–1, 7FS–2, and 7FS–3 to
collect information for the permitting
process. When we ask OMB to renew
this information collection, we will
assign Fish and Wildlife Service form
numbers to these forms. We will ask
OMB to approve FWS Form 3–2326
(Federal Subsistence Hunt Application,
Permit, and Report), FWS Form 3–2327
(Designated Hunter Permit Application,
Permit, and Report), and FWS Form 3–
2328 (Federal Subsistence Fishing
Application, Permit, and Report). The
information that we will collect on these
proposed forms is identical to that
collected on the current OMB-approved
forms.
Title: Federal Subsistence Hunt
Application, Permit, and Report.
OMB Control Number: 1018–0075.
Form Number: FWS Form 3–2326
(supersedes form 7FS–1).
Frequency of Collection: On Occasion.
Description of Respondents: Federally
defined rural residents.
This form allows Federal subsistence
users to participate in special hunts that
are not available to the general public,
but are provided for by Title VIII of
ANILCA. The application requires
information necessary to identify the
applicant (name, date of birth, address,
telephone number, and Alaska hunting
license number). The Board uses the
harvest information that the permitee
provides in the hunt report (number of
days hunted, method of getting to hunt
area, drainages hunted and locations,
date animals were taken, and sex of
animals taken) to evaluate subsistence
harvest success; the effectiveness of
season lengths, harvest quotas, and
harvest restrictions; hunting patterns
and practices; and hunter use. The
Board uses this information to set future
seasons and harvest limits for Federal
subsistence resource users. These
seasons and harvest limits are set to
meet the needs of subsistence hunters
without adversely impacting the health
of existing wildlife populations.
Title: Designated Hunter Permit
Application, Permit, and Report.
OMB Control Number: 1018–0075.
Form Number: FWS Form 3–2327
(supersedes form 7FS–2).
Frequency of Collection: On Occasion.
Description of Respondents: Federally
defined rural residents.
The Designated Hunter Application,
Permit, and Report form allows
qualified subsistence users to harvest
wildlife for other qualified subsistence
users who have a Federal Subsistence
Hunt permit and report the harvest of
multiple animals by a single hunter who
is acting for others. We collect
information on the application to
identify the applicant (name, date of
birth, address, telephone number, and
No. of
respondents
Form No./activity
Alaska hunting license number). The
permit and hunt report include the
names of persons for whom the
permittee hunted, harvest ticket/permit
number, unit, specific location, and
number of male and female animals
harvested.
Title: Federal Subsistence Fishing
Application, Permit, and Report.
OMB Control Number: 1018–0075.
Form Number: FWS Form 3–2328
(supersedes form 7FS–3).
Frequency of Collection: On Occasion.
Description of Respondents: Federally
defined rural residents.
This form allows qualified
subsistence users to harvest fish for
themselves or for others. This form also
allows Federal subsistence users to
participate in special fishing
opportunities that are not available to
the general public, but are provided for
by Title VIII of ANILCA. The Board
needs information on both the
fisherman (name, address, telephone
number, date of birth, and Alaska
driver’s license number or other
identification) and the qualified
subsistence users fished for (name and
date of birth) to identify the individuals
and ensure they are qualified
subsistence users. The report includes
information on dates fished, water body,
gear used, and the fish harvested. Once
the Board evaluates harvest information,
it uses that data, along with other
information, to set future seasons and
harvest limits for Federal subsistence
resource users. These seasons and
harvest limits are set to meet the needs
of subsistence fishermen without
adversely impacting the health of
existing fish populations.
