Information Collection Request
OMB Control Number: 1018–0141.
Title: Alaska Guide Service
Evaluation.
Service Form Number: 3–2349.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Description of Respondents: Clients of
permitted commercial guide service
providers.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Frequency of Collection: One time,
following use of commercial guide
services.
Estimated Annual Number of
Respondents: 264.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:
264.
Estimated Time per Response: 15
minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 66.
Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden

Abstract: We collect information on
FWS Form 3–2349 (Alaska Guide
Service Evaluation) to help us evaluate
commercial guide services on our
national wildlife refuges in the State of
Alaska (State). The National Wildlife
Refuge Administration Act of 1966, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 668dd–ee),
authorizes us to permit uses, including
commercial visitor services, on national
wildlife refuges when we find the
activity to be compatible with the
purposes for which the refuge was
established. With the objective of
making available a variety of quality
visitor services for wildlife-dependent
recreation on National Wildlife Refuge
System lands, we issue permits for
commercial guide services, including
big game hunting, sport fishing, wildlife
viewing, river trips, and other guided
activities. We use FWS Form 3–2349 as
a method to:
• Monitor the quality of services
provided by commercial guides.
• Gauge client satisfaction with the
services.
• Assess the impacts of the activity
on refuge resources.
The client is the best source of
information on the quality of
commercial guiding services. We
collect:
• Client name.
• Guide name(s).
• Type of guided activity.
• Dates and location of guided
activity.
• Information on the services
received such as the client’s
expectations, safety, environmental
impacts, and client’s overall
satisfaction.
We encourage respondents to provide
any additional comments that they wish
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:56 Apr 17, 2015
Jkt 235001
regarding the guide service or refuge
experience, and ask whether or not they
wish to be contacted for additional
information.
The above information, in
combination with State-required guide
activity reports and contacts with guides
and clients in the field, provides a
comprehensive method for monitoring
permitted commercial guide activities.
A regular program of client evaluation
helps refuge managers detect potential
problems with guide services so that we
can take corrective actions promptly. In
addition, we use this information during
the competitive selection process for big
game and sport fishing guide permits to
evaluate an applicant’s ability to
provide a quality guiding service.
Comments Received and Our Responses
Comments: On February 2, 2015, we
published in the Federal Register (80
FR 5574) a notice of our intent to
request that OMB renew approval for
this information collection. In that
notice, we solicited comments for 60
days, ending on April 3, 2015. We did
not receive any comments.
Request for Public Comments
We again invite comments concerning
this information collection on:
• Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary, including
whether or not the information will
have practical utility;
• The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information;
• Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your
address, phone number, email address,
or other personal identifying
information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice is published in conformance with
Sec. 1274(d)(1) of the Wild and Scenic
Rivers Act of 1968 (16 U.S.C. 1271–
1287). The Owyhee Canyonlands
Wilderness and Wild & Scenic Rivers
Management Plan establishes the
framework for managing approximately
517,000 acres of wilderness and 325
miles of wild and scenic rivers in
Owyhee County, southwestern Idaho.
The Plan provides direction for actions,
land use guidelines and restrictions
designed to preserve wilderness
character and protect and enhance river
values, as mandated by the Wilderness
Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(b)) and the Wild
and Scenic Rivers Act (16 U.S.C.
1281(a)). The Plan identifies conditions
and opportunities that will be managed
for at least the next 10 years, or as
changes in wilderness character, wild
and scenic river values, and/or resource
conditions require.
Areas managed by the Plan include:
The Big Jacks Creek, Little Jacks Creek,
Bruneau-Jarbidge Rivers, North Fork
Owyhee, Owyhee River, Pole Creek
Wilderness Areas, and the 16 wild and
scenic river segments that flow through
them.
Public scoping meetings were held in
2011 to inform the public of the
regulations and policies associated with
wilderness and wild and scenic river
management. The BLM solicited input
during these meetings, and for several

weeks thereafter, concerning wilderness
and wild and scenic river-related issues
and concerns, as well as the
development of alternatives and
management actions proposed for the
Plan.
The BLM considered and, where
appropriate, incorporated public and
internal staff comments on the Draft
Plan into the Final Plan. Comments
resulted in additional clarifying text, as
well as refinement of management
direction for some activities.
The final Plan includes limitations on
the size of groups rafting the wild and
scenic rivers, prescriptions regarding
the use of temporary hunting blinds,
provisions for trapping under State and
Federal regulations, and processes to
consider the proposed use of motorized
and mechanized vehicles and
equipment.

part 6300.
