Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 116 / Tuesday, June 17, 2014 / Notices
Service Manual. The purpose of this
policy is to establish policy for
accepting, using, and recognizing
donations. The policy includes
procedures for reviewing and evaluating
potential donors and donations, as well
as guidance on soliciting donations and
fundraising.
Background
The Department of the Interior issued
‘‘ETHICS AND CONDUCT, Employee
Responsibilities and Conduct,
Donations’’ (374 DM 6) in 2007. This
guidance requires all Interior bureaus to
develop their own policy on donations.
Several authorities allow various
types of donations, including real and
personal property, services, and money.
These include the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.),
which allows acceptance of funds or
lands, pending State approval. A later
amendment to the Fish and Wildlife Act
of 1956 (16 U.S.C. 742f) allows the
Service to accept real and personal
property donations. Other authorities
cited in this donations policy include
the Partnerships for Wildlife Act (16
U.S.C. 3741); Alaska National Interest
Lands Conservation Act (16 U.S.C.
3101); Migratory Bird Conservation Act,
as amended (16 U.S.C. 715–715r);
National Wildlife Refuge System
Volunteer and Community Partnership
Enhancement Act of 1998, as amended
(16 U.S.C. 742f); Great Lakes Fisheries
Act of 1956 (16 U.S.C. 932); and the
National Wildlife Refuge System
Administration Act of 1966 (16 U.S.C.
668dd(b)(2)).
In addition to those broader
authorities, individual units of the
National Wildlife Refuge System or the
National Fish Hatchery System may
have specific legislative authority to
accept donations. This donations policy
is in keeping with statutory
requirements as well as with the
aforementioned Departmental guidance,
374 DM 6.

Final Policy
We recognize the value of donations,
but also the potential problems with
accepting them. This policy covers the
ethical considerations for donations,
fundraising, and solicitation. While
donations can be a means to further our
mission, not all donations are
appropriate. This policy provides
consistent procedures for evaluating
potential donors and donations to
determine if acceptance is appropriate.
The policy also helps the reader
determine who has authority to accept
appropriate donations. That authority
depends on the type (real property or
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:43 Jun 16, 2014
Jkt 232001
non-real property) and the monetary
value of the donation.
This policy also covers soliciting
donations and fundraising. Those
activities are primarily done by Friends
groups, which are groups of volunteers
who support specific refuges. The
donations policy lists the limited
circumstances when Service employees
may solicit donations. It describes
inappropriate fundraising activities and
also mentions grant applications and
acceptance.
Recognizing donors is very important.
This policy also contains information on
that, including a template for a thankyou letter.
Summary of Comments and Changes to
the Final Policy
On January 15, 2013, we announced
the draft policy and requested public
comments via a Federal Register notice
(78 FR 3023). The comment period was
open from January 15, 2013, through
February 15, 2013. We received 14
comment letters on the draft policy. The
letters included 69 individual
comments on the draft policy. The
comments were from Federal
government agencies, nongovernmental
organizations, and individuals. Most of
the comments addressed specific
elements, while some comments
expressed general support, without
addressing specific elements. We
considered all of the information and
recommendations for improvement
included in the comments and made
appropriate changes to the draft policy.
We also made some additions and
clarifications to the policy that were not
addressed in the public comments, but
were discovered through internal
briefings and reviews during the policy
revision period.
Dated: May 27, 2014.

Acting Director, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Background
On June 6, 2014, the Commission
determined that the domestic interested
party group response to its notice of
institution (79 FR 11819, March 3, 2014)
of the subject five-year review was
adequate and that the respondent
interested party group response was
inadequate. The Commission did not
find any other circumstances that would
warrant conducting a full review.1

Commission’s statement on adequacy, and any
individual Commissioner’s statements will be

Accordingly, the Commission
determined that it would conduct an
expedited review pursuant to section
751(c)(3) of the Act.
Staff Report
A staff report containing information
concerning the subject matter of the
review will be placed in the nonpublic
record on July 2, 2014, and made
available to persons on the
Administrative Protective Order service
list for this review. A public version
will be issued thereafter, pursuant to
section 207.62(d)(4) of the
Commission’s rules.
Written Submissions
As provided in section 207.62(d) of
the Commission’s rules, interested
parties that are parties to the review and
that have provided individually
adequate responses to the notice of
institution,2 and any party other than an
interested party to the review may file
written comments with the Secretary on
what determination the Commission
should reach in the review. Comments

a party to the five-year review nor an
interested party may submit a brief
written statement (which shall not
contain any new factual information)
pertinent to the review by July 8, 2014.
However, should the Department of
Commerce extend the time limit for its
completion of the final results of its
review, the deadline for comments
(which may not contain new factual
information) on Commerce’s final
results is three business days after the
issuance of Commerce’s results. If
comments contain business proprietary
information (BPI), they must conform
with the requirements of sections 201.6,
207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission’s
rules. Please be aware that the
Commission’s rules with respect to

available on the Commission’s Web site

submitted by Anvil International LLC and Ward
Manufacturing to be individually adequate.
Comments from other interested parties will not be
accepted (see 19 CFR 207.62(d)(2)).
