Information Collection Sent to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for Approval; OMB Control Number 1018-0078; Injurious Wildlife; Importation Certification for Live Fish and Fish Eggs, 61177-61178 [E7-21297]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 208 / Monday, October 29, 2007 / Notices How may employers determine whether an EAD has been automatically extended for six months through May 2, 2008, and is therefore acceptable for completion of the Form I–9? An EAD that has been automatically extended for six months by this Notice through May 2, 2008, will be a Form I– 766 bearing the notation ‘‘A–12’’ or ‘‘C– 19’’ on the face of the card under ‘‘Category,’’ and have an expiration date of November 2, 2007, on the face of the card. New EADs or extension stickers showing the May 2, 2008, expiration date of the six-month automatic extension will not be issued. Employers should not request proof of Burundian citizenship. Employers should accept an EAD as a valid ‘‘List A’’ document and not ask for additional Form I–9, Employment Eligibility Verification, documentation if presented with an EAD that has been extended pursuant to this Federal Register Notice, and the EAD reasonably appears on its face to be genuine and to relate to the employee. This does not affect the right of an applicant for employment or an employee to present any legally acceptable document as proof of identity and eligibility for employment. Note to Employers: Employers are reminded that the laws requiring employment eligibility verification and prohibiting unfair immigration-related employment practices remain in full force. This Notice does not supersede or in any way limit applicable employment verification rules and policy guidance, including those setting forth re-verification requirements. For questions, employers may call the USCIS Customer Assistance Office Employer Hotline at 1–800–357–2099. Also, employers may call the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Special Counsel for Immigration Related Unfair Employment Practices (OSC) Employer Hotline at 1–800–255–8155. Employees or applicants may call the OSC Employee Hotline at 1–800–255–7688 for information regarding the automatic extension. Additional information is available on the OSC Web site at https:// www.usdoj.gov/crt/osc/. How may employers determine an employee’s eligibility for employment once the automatic six-month extension expires on May 2, 2008? Eligible TPS aliens will possess an EAD with an expiration date of May 1, 2009. The EAD will be a Form I–766 bearing the notation ‘‘A–12’’ or ‘‘C–19’’ on the face of the card under ‘‘Category,’’ and should be accepted for the purposes of verifying identity and employment authorization. What documents may a qualified individual show to his or her employer as proof of employment authorization and identity when completing Form I–9, Employment Eligibility Verification? During the first six months of this extension, qualified individuals who have received a six-month automatic extension of their EADs by virtue of this Federal Register Notice may present TPS-based EADs to their employers, as described above, as proof of identity and employment authorization through May 2, 2008. To minimize confusion over this extension at the time of hire or reverification, qualified individuals may also present a copy of this Federal Register Notice regarding the automatic extension of employment authorization documentation through May 2, 2008. After May 2, 2008, a qualified individual may present a new EAD valid through May 1, 2009. In the alternative, any legally acceptable document or combination of documents listed in List A, List B, or List C of the Form I–9 may be presented as proof of identity and employment eligibility.

    Abstract: The Lacey Act (18 U.S.C. 42)(Act) prohibits the 
possession or importation of any animal or plant deemed to be and 
prescribed by regulation to be injurious to:
    (1) Human beings;
    (2) The interests of agriculture, horticulture, and forestry; or
    (3) Wildlife or the wildlife resources of the United States.
    The Department of the Interior is charged with enforcement of this 
Act. The Act and regulations at 50 CFR 16 allow for the importation of 
animals classified as injurious if specific criteria are met. To 
effectively carry out responsibilities and protect the aquatic 
resources of the United States, the Fish and Wildlife Service (we, 
Service) must gather information on the animals being imported with 
regard to their source, destination, and health status. It is also 
imperative that we ensure the qualifications of those individuals who 
provide the fish health data upon which we base our decision to allow 
importation.
    We use three forms to collect this information:
    (1) FWS Form 3-2273 (Title 50 Certifying Official Form). New 
applicants and those seeking recertification as a Title 50 certifying 
official provide information so that we can assess their 
qualifications. Information includes, but is not limited to:
    (a) Name, position title, current place of employment (with 
address) and work phone number, fax number, and e-mail address.
    (b) Professional degrees.
    (c) Primary duties.
    (d) Areas of expertise and related certifications.
    (e) Facilities available for diagnostic tests and available 
equipment.
    (2) FWS Form 3-2274 (U.S. Title 50 Certification Form). The 
certifying official uses this form to affirm the health status of the 
fish or their reproductive products to be imported. Information 
includes, but is not limited to:
    (a) Certifying official's name and date of most recent 
certification.
    (b) Number, life stage, and species of animals or eggs.
    (c) Site and date of sample collection.
    (d) Name and address of laboratory conducting the assays.
    (e) Site from which the animals or eggs will be shipped.
    (f) Dates of the shipment.
    (g) Means of shipment and anticipated border crossing.
    (3) FWS Form 3-2275 (Title 50 Importation Request Form). We use the 
information on this form to ensure the safety of the shipment and to 
track and control importations. Information includes, but is not 
limited to:
    (a) Name and address of company/agency and facility receiving 
animals or eggs.
    (b) Number, life stage, and species of animals or eggs.
    (c) Origin of animals or eggs.
    (d) Name and address of exporter.
    Comments: On July 23, 2007, we published in the Federal Register 
(72 FR 40165) a notice of our intent to request that OMB renew this 
information collection. In that notice, we solicited comments for 60 
days, ending on September 21, 2007. We did not receive any comments.
    We again invite comments concerning this information collection on:
    (1) whether or not the collection of information is necessary, 
including whether or not the information will have practical utility;
    (2) the accuracy of our estimate of the burden for this collection 
of information;
    (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
    (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents.

public record. 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 you can ask OMB in your comment to withhold your personal
