would likely have to file numerous
separate section 10(a)(1)(B) permit
applications over the 25-year project
period. This activity-by-activity
approach would be more time
consuming and less efficient than
authorizing activities under this
comprehensive incidental take permit,
and could result in a fragmented
mitigation approach.
Proposed Action Without Reduction of
Exclosure Boundaries
This alternative is the proposed action
without reductions in exclosure
boundaries in the Boneyard and 6
exclosure areas. With this alternative,
the boundaries of the Boneyard and 6
exclosures would not be reduced in size
to increase areas for recreation. Off
highway vehicle and camping
opportunities in this area would remain
as they are under the current
management program.

Public Availability of Comments
Written comments we receive become
part of the public record associated with
this action. Before including your
address, phone number, email address,
or other personal identifying
information in your comment, you
should be aware that the entire
comment—including your personal
identifying information—may be made
publicly available at any time. While
you can ask us in your comment to
withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so. Comments and materials we
receive, as well as supporting
documentation we use in preparing the
environmental analysis, will be
available for public inspection, by
appointment, during normal business
hours at the Service’s Ventura Fish and
Wildlife Office in Ventura, California
(see ADDRESSES, above).
Scoping Meetings
See DATES for the date and times of
our public meetings. The purpose of
scoping meetings is to provide the
public with a general understanding of
the background of the proposed HCP
and activities it would cover, alternative
proposals under consideration, and the
Service’s role and steps to be taken to
develop the draft environmental
analysis for the proposed HCP.
Additionally, the purpose of these
meetings and public comment period is
to solicit suggestions and information
on the scope of issues and alternatives
for the Service to consider when
preparing the draft environmental
documents. Oral and written comments
will be accepted at the meetings.

documents and proposed HCP are
complete and made available for review,
there will be additional opportunity for
public comment on the content of these
documents through an additional

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
U.S.G.S., in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
provide the general public and other
Federal agencies with an opportunity to
comment on proposed, revised, and
continuing collections of information.
This helps us assess the impact of our
information collection requirements and
minimize the public’s reporting burden.
It also helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
A Federal Register notice with a 60day public comment period soliciting
comments on this collection of
information was published on June 19,
2017, 82 FR 27867. No comments were
received.
We are again soliciting comments on
the proposed IC that is described below.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following
issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to
the proper functions of the USGS; (2)
will this information be processed and
used in a timely manner; (3) is the
estimate of burden accurate; (4) how
might the USGS enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (5) how might the
USGS minimize the burden of this
collection on the respondents, including
through the use of information
technology.

multispectral, remotely-sensed imagery
through the Landsat program. Landsat
satellite imagery has been available at
no cost to the public since 2008, which
has resulted in the distribution of
millions of scenes each subsequent year,
as well tens of thousands of Landsat
users registering with USGS to access
the data. In order to continue to provide
high quality imagery that meets the
needs of users, LRS is collecting current
and future user requirements for sensor
and satellite attributes. These attributes
include spatial resolution, spectral
bands, frequency of acquisition, and
many others. LRS will use the
information from this collection to
understand if they are currently meeting
the needs of their user community and
to help determine the features of future
Landsat satellites. Questions will be
asked to determine user characteristics,
current uses of imagery, preferred
attributes of Landsat imagery, and
benefits of Landsat imagery. All current
U.S. Landsat imagery users who are
registered with USGS will be invited to
take part in the survey and a large
sample of international Landsat users
will also be invited.
To protect the confidentiality and
privacy of survey respondents, the data
from the survey will not be associated
with any respondent’s email address at
any time and will only be analyzed and
reported in aggregate. All files
containing PII will be passwordprotected, housed on secure USGS
servers, and only accessible to the
research team. The data from the survey
will be aggregated and statistically
analyzed and the results will be
published in publically available USGS
reports.
