programs elicited 286 responses. The
Department estimates that each
application required an average of 60
hours to prepare an application. Each
year approximately 50 applicants are
chosen for awards. Winners of the
competition are required to develop a
workplan, requiring approximately 20
hours, submit quarterly reports needing
approximately six hours each (including
a final report) and perform
recordkeeping to include submission of
vouchers for reimbursement, estimated
at 12 hours annually. Because these
actions are undertaken for each field
office in which the applicant wins
funds, the numbers reflect more than
the base number of winners.
Approximately 179 workplans were
developed as a result of the FY 2006
competition and each requires quarterly
reports and recordkeeping. The specific
numbers are as follows:

I. Abstract
The National Wildlife Refuge System
Improvement Act of 1997 that amends
the National Wildlife Refuge
Administration Act of 1966 (16 U.S.C.
668dd–668ee) requires that we
authorize economic privileges on any
national wildlife refuge by permit only
when the activity will be compatible
with and contribute to refuge purposes
(50 CFR 29.21). We make provision in
our general refuge regulations for public
entry for specialized purposes,
including economic activities such as
the operation of guiding and other
visitor services on refuges by
concessionaires or cooperators under
the appropriate legal instrument or
special use permits (50 CFR 25.41,
25.61, 26.36, 27.71, 27.91, 27.97, 29.1,
29.2, 30.11, 31.2, 31.13, 31.14, 31.16,
and 43 CFR 5). These regulations
provide the authorities and procedures
for allowing permits on refuges outside
of Alaska.
We will provide the permit
applications as requested by interested
citizens. Information that we collect
helps us to:
(1) Determine if requested activities
are compatible and appropriate with the
