Title: The Interagency Access Pass
Application Process.
Bureau Form Number: None.

Expiration Date: 10/31/2007.
Type of Request: Extension of a

collection.
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 214001
Description of Need: The currently
approved information collection
responds to The Federal Lands
Recreation Enhancement Act (FLREA)
which requires the Secretary of
Agriculture and the Secretary of the
Interior to make the America the
Beautiful—The National Parks and
Federal Recreational Lands Pass
available, for free, to any United States
citizen or person domiciled in the
United States who has been medically
determined to be permanently disabled
for purposes of section 7(20)(B)(i) of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C.
705 (20)(B)(i)). The Act further requires
that the applicant provide adequate
proof of the disability and such
citizenship or residency. The Act
specifies that the Pass shall be valid for
the lifetime of the pass holder. The
America the Beautiful—The National
Parks and Federal Recreational Lands
Access Pass (Interagency Access Pass)
was crated to meet the requirements of
the FLREA. An Interagency Access Pass
is a free, lifetime permit that is issued
without charge by the Bureau of Land
Management, Bureau of Reclamation,
United States Fish and Wildlife Service,
United States Forest Service, and the
National Park Service to citizens or
persons who are domiciled (permanent
residents) in the United States,
regardless of age, and who have a
medical determination and
documentation of permanent disability.
Furthermore, the Pass is nontransferable
and entitles the permittee and any
person accompanying him in a single,
private, non-commercial vehicle, or
alternatively, the permittee and three
adults to enter with him where entry to
the area is by any means other than
private, non-commercial vehicle. The
Pass must be signed by the holder.
In order to issue the Interagency
Access Pass only to persons who have
been medically determined to be
permanently disabled, in accordance
with the FLREA direction, and in order
to clarify, simplify, and provide uniform
guidance for the public on the process
for obtaining the Interagency Access
Pass, the Secretaries of Agriculture and
Interior established eligibility and
required documentation guidelines for
issuing the Interagency Access Pass and
published them within the America the
Beautiful—The National Parks and
Federal Recreational Lands Pass
Standard Operating Procedures. The
procedures require the individual to
appear in person and sign the Pass in
the presence of the issuing agency
officer. Acceptable documentation to
verify that the individual had been

medically determined to have a
permanent disability includes:
A statement signed by a licensed
physician attesting that the applicant
has a permanent physical, mental, or
sensory impairment that substantially
limits one or more major life activities,
and stating the nature of the
impairment; Or
A document issued by a Federal
agency, such as the Veteran’s
Administration, which attests that the
applicant has been medically
determined to be eligible to receive
Federal benefits as a result of blindness
or permanent disability. Other
acceptable Federal agency documents
include proof of receipt of Social
Security Disability Income (SSDI) or
Supplemental Security Income (SSI); Or
A document issued by a State agency
such as the vocational rehabilitation
agency, which attests that the applicant
has been medically determined to be
eligible to receive vocational
rehabilitation agency benefits or
services as a result of medically
determined blindness or permanent
disability. Showing a State motor
vehicle department disability sticker,
license plate or hang tag is not
acceptable documentation;
Information available to the general
public through agency Web sites and
publications will inform potential Pass
applicants of the documentation
requirements. However, there are
instances where applicants learn about
the Pass when arriving at a recreation
site and do not have the required
documentation available. For those
instances, a fourth option is available. If
a person claims eligibility for the Access
Pass, but cannot produce any of the
documentation outlined, that person
must read, sign, and date the Statement
of Permanent Disability Form in the
presence of the officer issuing the Pass.
If the applicant cannot read and/or sign,
someone else may read, date, and sign
the statement on his/her behalf in the
applicant’s presence and in the presence
of the officer issuing the Pass. The
Interagency Access Pass replaces the
Golden Access Passport that was
established in 1980 by an amendment to
the Land and Water Conservation Fund
Act (L&WCFA) of 1965. Previously
issued Golden Access Passports will
remain valid for the lifetime of the
Passport holder. The requested
information and Statement of
Permanent Disability have been
collected and used since the creation of
the Golden Access Passport in 1980 to
verify that the individual had been
medically determined to have a
permanent disability for the issuance of
the Golden Access Passport under OMB

Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(b)) and

subject request does not show changed
circumstances sufficient to warrant
institution of an investigation to review
in less than 24 months the
Commission’s final affirmative
determination in investigation No. 731–

this matter may be viewed on the
Commission’s electronic docket (EDIS)
at https://edis.usitc.gov.
Background Information: On January
6, 2006, the Department of Commerce
determined that imports of certain
orange juice from Brazil are being sold
in the United States at less than fair
value (LTFV) within the meaning of
section 731 of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673)
(71 FR 2183, January 13, 2006); and on
March 3, 2006, the Commission
determined, pursuant to section
735(b)(1) of the Act (19 U.S.C.
1673d(b)(1)), that an industry in the
United States was materially injured by
reason of imports of such LTFV
merchandise. Accordingly, Commerce
ordered that antidumping duties be
imposed on such imports (71 FR 12183,
March 9, 2006).
On June 13, 2007, the Commission
received a request to review its
affirmative determination in
investigation No. 731–TA–1089 (Final)
pursuant to section 751(b) of the Act (19
U.S.C. 1675(b)). The request was filed
by Tropicana Products, Inc., Bradenton,
FL. Tropicana alleges that shortfalls in
the Florida juice orange crop and
depleted inventories; significant price
increases and a greatly constricted
supply; and disruption of the alternative
sources of Brazilian supply following
imposition of the antidumping duty
order have resulted in the domestic
PO 00000

orange juice producers being harmed by
the order.
Pursuant to section 207.45(b) of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure,1 the Commission published
a notice in the Federal Register on July
25, 2007,2 requesting comments as to
whether the changed circumstances
alleged by the petitioner were sufficient
to warrant an investigation to review in
less than 24 months the Commission’s
final affirmative determination. On
September 24, 2007, the Commission
received comments in support of the
request from: (1) Counsel on behalf of
Tropicana, the party requesting the
review; (2) counsel on behalf of Louis
Dreyfus Citrus Inc. (‘‘Louis Dreyfus’’), a
domestic packager, merchant, and
manufacturer of orange juice; (3)
counsel on behalf of Cutrale Citrus
Juices, Inc., a U.S. producer; Citrus
Products, Inc., a U.S. importer; and
Sucocitrico Cutrale Lta., a Brazilian
exporter (collectively, ‘‘Cutrale Citrus’’);
(4) counsel on behalf of Fischer S/A
Agroindustria, a Brazilian producer, and
Citrosuco North America, Inc., a U.S.
producer/importer, (collectively,
‘‘Fischer’’); (5) Silver Springs Citrus,
Inc., a U.S. producer; (6) Cargill Juice
N.A., a U.S. producer/importer; and, (7)
Vitality Foodservice, Inc., a U.S.
purchaser.
A joint response in opposition to the
request was received from counsel on
behalf of Florida Citrus Mutual
(‘‘FCM’’), A. Duda & Sons, Inc. (doing
business as ‘‘Citrus Belle’’), Citrus
World, Inc., and Southern Garden Citrus
Processing Corporation (doing business
as ‘‘Southern Gardens’’) (collectively,
‘‘domestic producers’’).
Analysis: In considering whether to
institute a review investigation under
section 751(b), the Commission will not
institute such an investigation unless it
is persuaded there is sufficient
information demonstrating:
(1) that there are significant changed
circumstances from those in existence at
the time of the original investigations,
(2) that those changed circumstances
are not the natural and direct result of
the imposition of the antidumping and/
or countervailing duty order, and
(3) that the changed circumstances,
allegedly indicating that revocation of
the order would not be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of material
injury to the domestic industry, warrant
a full investigation.3 Additionally, in
