Overview of This Information Collection Title: Passenger and Crew Manifest (Advance Passenger Information System). OMB Number: 1651–0088. Form Number: None. Abstract: The Advance Passenger Information System (APIS) is an automated method in which U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) receives information on passengers and crew onboard inbound and outbound international flights and commercial vessels before their arrival in, or departure from, the United States. APIS data includes biographical information for travelers arriving in or departing from the United States, allowing the data to be checked against CBP databases to target for high-risk travelers and facilitate legitimate travel for the general public. The information is submitted for both commercial and private aircraft flights, commercial vessels, and voluntarily for some rail carriers and bus carriers. Specific data elements required for each passenger and crew member include: Full name; date of birth; gender; citizenship; travel document type; passport number; country of issuance and expiration date; and alien registration number where applicable. The statutory authority for APIS E:\FR\FM\27AUN1.SGM 27AUN1 53016 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 167 / Thursday, August 27, 2020 / Notices includes the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, Public Law 107–71, 115 Stat. 597 (49 U.S.C. 44909). The APIS regulatory requirements for air carriers are specified in 19 CFR 122.49a, 122.49b, 122.49c, 122.75a, 122.75b, and 122.22. These provisions list the required APIS data. Respondents submit their electronic manifest either through a direct interface with CBP, or using eAPIS which is a web-based system that can be accessed at https://eapis.cbp.dhs.gov/. Current Actions: This submission is being made to revise this collection of information to include bus and rail carriers into this OMB control number. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Proposed Changes CBP is currently running a pilot with nine respondents in which bus carriers are submitting passenger manifest data voluntarily to assist CBP in the development of the Land Pre-Arrival System (LPAS) application. The LPAS application will improve the current method of transmission by allowing carriers to scan the Machine-Readable Zone (MRZ) of travelers’ documents which will result in time-savings for the carriers and increased accuracy for CBP. CBP would like to revise this information collection to include bus and rail respondents which would allow CBP to expand the bus pilot beyond the current nine respondents, as well as make the LPAS application available to pilot for rail carriers in the future. For this pilot, bus carriers submit their APIS information to CBP via Land Pre-Arrival System Application (LPAS), embedded in the CBP ROAM application which is available free of charge for Android and Apple mobile devices. In the LPAS application, the collection of traveler information is primarily done through electronic submission. The bus carrier designee submits traveler information by scanning the MRZ of each traveler’s document which is automatically loaded into the application. Should the MRZ not automatically transfer into the application, the bus carrier will manually input the traveler’s document information. This is the only point at which information is collected from travelers for CBP. The user registers bus as the mode of travel and is prompted to complete information on the company. Information includes: • Mode of Travel (Bus) • License Country • Registration Province • License Number • Sender ID VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:09 Aug 26, 2020 Jkt 250001 • Carrier Code (APIS code assigned by CBP) • Bus Company Each carrier will be required to create a ‘Driver Profile’ by entering in their documentation using the MRZ or manually. This profile is saved to be associated with each bus that the driver operates and will have to be selected prior to submitting the trip. The driver is prompted to enter his or her information, including: • Name • Date of Birth • Sex • Country of Citizenship • Country of Residence • Document Type • Document Number • Date of Issue • Date of Expiration • Country of Issue This process is duplicated for all additional travelers boarding the bus. Each traveler profile is saved for the trip, but is deleted from the application immediately after the information is submitted to CBP. Prior to submitting traveler information to CBP, the user must fill in required information about the trip. These fields include items such as: • Arrival Location in the US • Estimated Arrival Date • Estimated Arrival Time • Arrival Code (Port of Entry) • Entry State • Last Country Visited • Contact Email Previously, the ROAM application also permitted self-reported submission of information to CBP officers through a face-time feature. This self-reporting feature has been disabled for LPAS and will not be used at any time in conjunction with the Bus APIS pilot or the resulting program that arises from the pilot. The bus carrier, either through the bus driver, another employee, or a designated representative or service provider, will be the only party submitting data to CBP via the LPAS feature within the ROAM application. The basis for this decision arose out of the necessity to collect traveler information prior to arrival in the land environment as it is done in the air environment. For pre-arrival or predeparture vetting and targeting to be conducted, officers must be able to collect information on travelers prior to their arrival at the border to promote officer safety and increase security. In air Ports of Entry, officers have access to traveler information 72 hours prior to arrival. However, this standard does not exist in the land environment, as travelers can board a bus within PO 00000 Frm 00075 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 minutes of arriving at the border. In the air environment, airline carriers or their designated representatives or service providers are the users submitting traveler information. Therefore, in order to closely mirror this successful process, bus carriers will submit traveler data in the land environment. In order to reduce the burden of manual data entry, the LPAS feature includes a technology that reads the MRZ on a passport. As a result, the bus driver can simply scan a passenger’s passport in order to populate the required data fields and accurately submit that data to CBP. CBP is considering the development of LPAS for rail carriers in the future. Type of Review: Revision. Affected Public: Businesses, Individuals.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 9 of the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and its implementing regulations prohibit the ‘‘take’’ of animal species listed as endangered or threatened. Take is defined under the ESA as to ‘‘harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect listed animal species, or to attempt to engage in such conduct’’ (16 U.S.C. 1538). However, under section 10(a) of the ESA, we may issue permits to authorize incidental take/the enhancement of survival of listed/candidate species. ‘‘Incidental take’’ is defined by the ESA as take that is incidental to, and not the purpose of, carrying out an otherwise lawful activity. Regulations governing such take of endangered and threatened/ candidate species, respectively, are found in the Code of Federal Regulations at 50 CFR 17.22 and 50 CFR 17.32. Background Circuit Engineering District #4 has applied to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) for an ITP under section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The requested ITP, which would be in effect for a period of 3 years, if granted, would authorize incidental take of the PO 00000 Frm 00076 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 53017 American burying beetle. The proposed incidental take would result from activities associated with otherwise lawful activities, including building a new bridge and off-set road alignment of the road across Leader Creek. We have determined the proposed action qualifies as a low-effect habitat conservation plan (HCP) and is categorically excluded from the NEPA process. The proposed incidental take would occur along 1.88 acres (ac) where County Road NS–374 crosses Leader Creek near the town of Atwood in Hughes County, Oklahoma, as a result of activities associated with the applicant’s construction activities. Such actions may require disturbance within potential American burying beetle habitat. Circuit Engineering District #4 has proposed to mitigate the impacts to 0.75 ac of suitable American burying beetle habitat, including 0.5 ac of permanent cover change impacts and 0.25 ac of permanent change. These habitat acres will be mitigated in perpetuity according to Service approved mitigation ratios through purchasing credits at an approved conservation bank. Avoidance and minimization measures to reduce impacts to the American burying beetle include reducing motor vehicle, machinery, and heavy equipment use areas, reducing soil erosion, increasing soil stability, providing education to onsite personnel, limiting the use of artificial lighting, and preventing invasive species establishment. Next Steps We will evaluate the HCP and comments we receive to determine whether the ITP application meets the requirements of section 10(a) of the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). We will also evaluate whether issuance of a section 10(a)(1)(B) permit would comply with section 7 of the ESA by conducting an intra-Service section 7 consultation. We will use the results of this consultation, in combination with the above findings, in our final analysis to determine whether to issue an ITP. If all necessary requirements are met, we will issue the ITP to the applicant. 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 your entire comment—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time.

Overview of This Information Collection

    Title: Passenger and Crew Manifest (Advance Passenger Information 
System).
    OMB Number: 1651-0088.
    Form Number: None.
    Abstract: The Advance Passenger Information System (APIS) is an 
automated method in which U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 
receives information on passengers and crew onboard inbound and 
outbound international flights and commercial vessels before their 
arrival in, or departure from, the United States. APIS data includes 
biographical information for travelers arriving in or departing from 
the United States, allowing the data to be checked against CBP 
databases to target for high-risk travelers and facilitate legitimate 
travel for the general public.
    The information is submitted for both commercial and private 
aircraft flights, commercial vessels, and voluntarily for some rail 
carriers and bus carriers. Specific data elements required for each 
passenger and crew member include: Full name; date of birth; gender; 
citizenship; travel document type; passport number; country of issuance 
and expiration date; and alien registration number where applicable. 
The statutory authority for APIS

[[Page 53016]]

includes the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, Public Law 107-
71, 115 Stat. 597 (49 U.S.C. 44909). The APIS regulatory requirements 
for air carriers are specified in 19 CFR 122.49a, 122.49b, 122.49c, 
122.75a, 122.75b, and 122.22. These provisions list the required APIS 
data.
    Respondents submit their electronic manifest either through a 
direct interface with CBP, or using eAPIS which is a web-based system 
that can be accessed at https://eapis.cbp.dhs.gov/.
    Current Actions: This submission is being made to revise this 
collection of information to include bus and rail carriers into this 
OMB control number.

Proposed Changes

    CBP is currently running a pilot with nine respondents in which bus 
carriers are submitting passenger manifest data voluntarily to assist 
CBP in the development of the Land Pre-Arrival System (LPAS) 
application. The LPAS application will improve the current method of 
transmission by allowing carriers to scan the Machine-Readable Zone 
(MRZ) of travelers' documents which will result in time-savings for the 
carriers and increased accuracy for CBP. CBP would like to revise this 
information collection to include bus and rail respondents which would 
allow CBP to expand the bus pilot beyond the current nine respondents, 
as well as make the LPAS application available to pilot for rail 
carriers in the future.
    For this pilot, bus carriers submit their APIS information to CBP 
via Land Pre-Arrival System Application (LPAS), embedded in the CBP 
ROAM application which is available free of charge for Android and 
Apple mobile devices.
    In the LPAS application, the collection of traveler information is 
primarily done through electronic submission. The bus carrier designee 
submits traveler information by scanning the MRZ of each traveler's 
document which is automatically loaded into the application. Should the 
MRZ not automatically transfer into the application, the bus carrier 
will manually input the traveler's document information. This is the 
only point at which information is collected from travelers for CBP.
    The user registers bus as the mode of travel and is prompted to 
complete information on the company. Information includes:

 Mode of Travel (Bus)
 License Country
 Registration Province
 License Number
 Sender ID
 Carrier Code (APIS code assigned by CBP)
 Bus Company

    Each carrier will be required to create a `Driver Profile' by 
entering in their documentation using the MRZ or manually. This profile 
is saved to be associated with each bus that the driver operates and 
will have to be selected prior to submitting the trip. The driver is 
prompted to enter his or her information, including:

 Name
 Date of Birth
 Sex
 Country of Citizenship
 Country of Residence
 Document Type
 Document Number
 Date of Issue
 Date of Expiration
 Country of Issue

    This process is duplicated for all additional travelers boarding 
the bus. Each traveler profile is saved for the trip, but is deleted 
from the application immediately after the information is submitted to 
CBP.
    Prior to submitting traveler information to CBP, the user must fill 
in required information about the trip. These fields include items such 
as:

 Arrival Location in the US
 Estimated Arrival Date
 Estimated Arrival Time
 Arrival Code (Port of Entry)
 Entry State
 Last Country Visited
 Contact Email

    Previously, the ROAM application also permitted self-reported 
submission of information to CBP officers through a face-time feature. 
This self-reporting feature has been disabled for LPAS and will not be 
used at any time in conjunction with the Bus APIS pilot or the 
resulting program that arises from the pilot. The bus carrier, either 
through the bus driver, another employee, or a designated 
representative or service provider, will be the only party submitting 
data to CBP via the LPAS feature within the ROAM application. The basis 
for this decision arose out of the necessity to collect traveler 
information prior to arrival in the land environment as it is done in 
the air environment. For pre-arrival or pre-departure vetting and 
targeting to be conducted, officers must be able to collect information 
on travelers prior to their arrival at the border to promote officer 
safety and increase security. In air Ports of Entry, officers have 
access to traveler information 72 hours prior to arrival. However, this 
standard does not exist in the land environment, as travelers can board 
a bus within minutes of arriving at the border. In the air environment, 
airline carriers or their designated representatives or service 
providers are the users submitting traveler information. Therefore, in 
order to closely mirror this successful process, bus carriers will 
submit traveler data in the land environment. In order to reduce the 
burden of manual data entry, the LPAS feature includes a technology 
that reads the MRZ on a passport. As a result, the bus driver can 
simply scan a passenger's passport in order to populate the required 
data fields and accurately submit that data to CBP. CBP is considering 
the development of LPAS for rail carriers in the future.
