SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Advance Notice and Public Comment
Procedures
Section 4103 of the John D. Dingell,
Jr. Conservation, Management, and
Recreation Act of 2019 (Pub. L. 116–9,
Title IV (Sportsmen’s Access and
Related Matters)), hereinafter ‘‘the
Dingell Act,’’ requires the Forest Service
to provide advance notice and
opportunity for public comment before
temporarily or permanently closing any
National Forest System (NFS) lands to
hunting, fishing, or recreational
shooting. Section 4103 of the Dingell
Act applies to the proposed permanent
order prohibiting recreational shooting
in the northern Canyon Lakes, Sulphur,
and southern Clear Creek Ranger
Districts of the Arapaho and Roosevelt
National Forests and Pawnee National
Grassland, and to the proposed
permanent order prohibiting
recreational shooting in the northern
Clear Creek and southern Boulder
Ranger Districts of the Arapaho and
Roosevelt National Forests and Pawnee
National Grassland. The public notice
and comment process in section
4103(b)(2) of the Dingell Act requires
the Forest Service to publish a notice of
intent in the Federal Register of the
proposed permanent orders in advance
of the public comment period for the
proposed permanent orders. This notice
meets the requirement to publish a
notice of intent in the Federal Register
in advance of the public comment
period.
Following the notice of intent, section
4103(b)(2) of the Dingell Act requires an
opportunity for public comment on
proposed temporary or permanent
hunting, fishing, or recreational
shooting orders. Because the proposed
orders would permanently prohibit
recreational shooting in the southern
Boulder, northern Canyon Lakes,
Sulphur, and Clear Creek Ranger
Districts of the Arapaho and Roosevelt
National Forests and Pawnee National
Grassland, the public comment period
must be at least 60 days. Beginning on
May 5, 2023, the Forest Service will
accept public comments on the
proposed permanent orders for 60 days.
The notice of opportunity for public
comment will be posted on the Arapaho
and Roosevelt National Forests and

Section 4103(b)(2) of the Dingell Act
requires the Forest Service to respond to
public comments received on the
proposed permanent orders before
issuing final permanent orders,
including an explanation of how any
significant issues raised by the
comments were resolved and, if
applicable, how resolution of those
issues affected the proposed permanent
orders or the justification for the
proposed permanent orders. The final
permanent orders, maps, justification
for the final permanent orders, and
response to comments on the proposed
permanent orders will be posted on the
Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests
and Pawnee National Grassland’s web
page at www.fs.usda.gov/goto/arp/
recshootingmgt.
Background and Need
The proposed permanent orders
would implement applicable land
management plan direction in the
Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests
and Pawnee National Grassland’s 2019
Land and Resource Management Plan
amendment (Plan Amendment).
Shooting sports are long-standing and
appropriate uses of NFS lands. The Plan
Amendment direction includes a
management goal of providing for
recreational shooting opportunities
across the Arapaho and Roosevelt
National Forests in a manner that
addresses public health and safety
concerns. The Plan Amendment also
identifies NFS lands unsuitable for
recreational shooting. Consistent with
the Plan Amendment, the proposed
permanent orders would prohibit
recreational shooting, defined as
discharging a firearm, air rifle or gas
gun, on 94,900 acres of NFS lands
designated as unsuitable for recreational
shooting in southern Clear Creek,
Jefferson, Park, northern Larimer, and
Grand Counties, Colorado, which
include the northern Canyon Lakes,
Sulphur, and southern Clear Creek
Ranger Districts of the Arapaho and
Roosevelt National Forests and Pawnee
National Grassland, and on 46,195 acres
of NFS lands designated as unsuitable
for recreational shooting in northern
Clear Creek and Gilpin Counties,
Colorado, which include the southern
Boulder and northern Clear Creek
Ranger Districts of the Arapaho and
Roosevelt National Forests and Pawnee
National Grassland.
Implementation of the proposed
permanent orders is consistent with the
framework in the decision notice for the
Plan Amendment for phasing out

recreational shooting as developed
target ranges are constructed and
opened for public use in the Arapaho
and Roosevelt National Forests and
Pawnee National Grassland. Final
permanent recreational shooting orders
will be issued after the notice and
comment process under the Dingell Act
is complete and developed target ranges
in the Arapaho and Roosevelt National
Forests and Pawnee National Grassland
are constructed and open for public use.
The proposed permanent orders,
maps, and justification for the proposed
permanent orders are posted on the

Request; Household Pulse Survey
On February 14, 2023, the Department
of Commerce received clearance from
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 to
conduct Phase 3.8 of the Household
Pulse Survey (OMB No. 0607–1013,
Exp. 10/31/23). The Household Pulse
Survey was designed to meet a need for
timely information associated with
household experiences during the
Covid–19 pandemic. The Department is
committed to ensuring that the data
collected by the Household Pulse
Survey continue to meet information
needs as they may evolve over the
course of the pandemic. This notice
serves to inform of the Department’s
intent to request clearance from OMB to
make some revisions to the Household
Pulse Survey questionnaire. To ensure
that the data collected by the Household
Pulse Survey continue to meet
information needs as they evolve over
the course of the pandemic, the Census
Bureau submits this Request for
Revision to an Existing Collection for a
revised Phase 3.9 questionnaire.
Phase 3.9 includes an experiment
involving new detailed race and
ethnicity questions, as well as new
questions on the use of antivirals to treat
COVID, how households obtain COVID

tests, the use of infant formula with
babies, children’s mental health
treatment, and pressure to move from
current residence. There are also
modifications to existing children’s
vaccine booster, COVID testing, infant
formula, reasons not working,
unemployment insurance, Medicaid,
and inflation items. Several questions
will be removed for Phase 3.9, including
replacing the current race/ethnicity
items, and questions about the receipt of
updated COVID vaccines, intent to
vaccinate children, childcare
arrangements, children’s mental health
and behaviors, current rent amount, use
of emergency rental assistance, and how
children receive their education.
It is the Department’s intention to
commence data collection using the
revised instrument on or about
December 7, 2022. The Department
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to comment on
proposed, and continuing information
collections, which helps us assess the
impact of our information collection
requirements and minimize the public’s
reporting burden. Public comments
were previously sought on the
Household Pulse Survey via the Federal
Register on May 19, 2020, June 3, 2020,
February 1, 2021, April 13, 2021, June
24, 2021, October 26, 2021, January 24,
2022, April 18, 2022, July 2, 2022, and

natural disasters, school meals for
children, and children’s mental health
treatment. The requested revision, if
approved by OMB, will remove selected
items from the questions for which
utility has declined and add questions
based on information needs expressed
via public comment and in consult with
other Federal agencies. The overall
burden change to the public will be
insignificant.
The Household Pulse Survey was
initially launched in April, 2020 as an
experimental project (see https://

clearance from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) initially
granted April 19, 2020; regular
