Abstract: The Lacey Act (Act, 18 U.S.C. 42) prohibits the importation of any animal deemed to be and prescribed by regulation to be injurious to: • Human beings; • The interests of agriculture, horticulture, and forestry; or • Wildlife or the wildlife resources of the United States. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\30OCN1.SGM 30OCN1 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 208 / Monday, October 30, 2023 / Notices Implementation and enforcement of the Lacey Act is the responsibility of the Department of the Interior. The Service, in concert with our diverse partners, works to conserve, restore, and maintain the nation’s fishery resources and aquatic ecosystems for the benefit of the American people, to include managing and controlling four invasive species of carp—bighead, black, grass, and silver— native to Asia. Under the authority of the Act, the Service listed bighead, black, and silver carp species as injurious wildlife to protect humans, native wildlife, and wildlife resources from the purposeful or accidental introduction of invasive carp into the nation’s aquatic ecosystems. The Service takes part in a broad, partner-driven approach to strategically control the movement of invasive carp. The spread of these invasive species in the nation’s river systems threatens the conservation efforts conducted by our agency, our State partners, and other stakeholders, to promote self-sustaining aquatic resources and healthy aquatic ecosystems. In addition to widespread and longstanding ecological consequences, aquatic invasive species often result in significant economic losses and cost our nation’s economy billions of dollars per year. To effectively carry out our responsibilities under the Act and protect the aquatic resources of the United States, the Service, in collaboration with the U.S. Geological Survey, proposes to administer applications of Carbon Dioxide-Carp by registered management partners (applicators) and to collect information regarding the usage of Carbon DioxideCarp, an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) registered product #6704– 95, to control invasive carp. Carbon Dioxide-Carp is approved for use only by the Service, U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, State natural resource managers, or persons under their direct supervision. The Service will use the information collected to document the label requests, maintain inventory, and document application results of Carbon Dioxide-Carp as an EPA registered product. The Service proposes to collect information from applicators using the following five forms: • Form 3–2130: Report on Receipt of Label—Applicators must apply for a label to attach to a treatment container of Carbon Dioxide-Carp prior to being able to legally apply it as an invasive carp deterrent or as an under-ice lethal control for aquatic nuisance species. This form collects the following information: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:18 Oct 27, 2023 Jkt 262001 —Applicant’s information, to include address, date of birth, contact number(s), email address, and relevant business information (if application is on behalf of a business, corporation, public agency, Tribe, or institution); —Date of label receipt; —Site of application, to include GPS location, approximate number of surface acres, and date of application; —Label number; and —Name and address of applicator. • Form 3–2163: Inventory Form for Use with Carbon Dioxide-Carp— Registered applicators must maintain an accurate inventory of Carbon DioxideCarp for the duration of possession of the product label. This form collects the following information: —Applicant’s information, to include address, date of birth, contact number(s), email address, and relevant business information (if application is on behalf of a business, corporation, public agency, Tribe, or institution); —Date of application; —Amount of Carbon Dioxide-Carp applied (pounds); —Label number; —Label return date; —Any adverse incident; and —Name of applicator and affiliation. • Form 3–2164: Worksheet for Field Application Locations—Applicators must complete Form 3–2164 for each application of Carbon Dioxide-Carp before the actual application. This form collects the following information: —Applicant’s information, to include address, date of birth, contact number(s), email address, and relevant business information (if application is on behalf of a business, corporation, public agency, Tribe, or institution); —Site information, to include the name and address of the location; applicator name, address, telephone number, and email address; and the applicator’s certification number; and —Carbon Dioxide-Carp use information, to include estimated pounds of Carbon Dioxide-Carp needed, estimated dates of use, purpose, and a list of obtained permits. • Form 3–2191: Results Report Form—Investigator must submit application results to the Service to document efficacy of the treatment and any possible adverse effects, as this data is required by the EPA to maintain product registration.

    Abstract: The Lacey Act (Act, 18 U.S.C. 42) prohibits the 
importation of any animal deemed to be and prescribed by regulation to 
be injurious to:
     Human beings;
     The interests of agriculture, horticulture, and forestry; 
or
     Wildlife or the wildlife resources of the United States.

[[Page 74205]]

    Implementation and enforcement of the Lacey Act is the 
responsibility of the Department of the Interior. The Service, in 
concert with our diverse partners, works to conserve, restore, and 
maintain the nation's fishery resources and aquatic ecosystems for the 
benefit of the American people, to include managing and controlling 
four invasive species of carp--bighead, black, grass, and silver--
native to Asia. Under the authority of the Act, the Service listed 
bighead, black, and silver carp species as injurious wildlife to 
protect humans, native wildlife, and wildlife resources from the 
purposeful or accidental introduction of invasive carp into the 
nation's aquatic ecosystems.
    The Service takes part in a broad, partner-driven approach to 
strategically control the movement of invasive carp. The spread of 
these invasive species in the nation's river systems threatens the 
conservation efforts conducted by our agency, our State partners, and 
other stakeholders, to promote self-sustaining aquatic resources and 
healthy aquatic ecosystems. In addition to widespread and longstanding 
ecological consequences, aquatic invasive species often result in 
significant economic losses and cost our nation's economy billions of 
dollars per year.
    To effectively carry out our responsibilities under the Act and 
protect the aquatic resources of the United States, the Service, in 
collaboration with the U.S. Geological Survey, proposes to administer 
applications of Carbon Dioxide-Carp by registered management partners 
(applicators) and to collect information regarding the usage of Carbon 
Dioxide-Carp, an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) registered 
product #6704-95, to control invasive carp. Carbon Dioxide-Carp is 
approved for use only by the Service, U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Army 
Corps of Engineers, State natural resource managers, or persons under 
their direct supervision.
    The Service will use the information collected to document the 
label requests, maintain inventory, and document application results of 
Carbon Dioxide-Carp as an EPA registered product. The Service proposes 
to collect information from applicators using the following five forms:
     Form 3-2130: Report on Receipt of Label--Applicators must 
apply for a label to attach to a treatment container of Carbon Dioxide-
Carp prior to being able to legally apply it as an invasive carp 
deterrent or as an under-ice lethal control for aquatic nuisance 
species. This form collects the following information:

--Applicant's information, to include address, date of birth, contact 
number(s), email address, and relevant business information (if 
application is on behalf of a business, corporation, public agency, 
Tribe, or institution);
--Date of label receipt;
--Site of application, to include GPS location, approximate number of 
surface acres, and date of application;
--Label number; and
--Name and address of applicator.

     Form 3-2163: Inventory Form for Use with Carbon Dioxide-
Carp--Registered applicators must maintain an accurate inventory of 
Carbon Dioxide-Carp for the duration of possession of the product 
label. This form collects the following information:

--Applicant's information, to include address, date of birth, contact 
number(s), email address, and relevant business information (if 
application is on behalf of a business, corporation, public agency, 
Tribe, or institution);
--Date of application;
--Amount of Carbon Dioxide-Carp applied (pounds);
--Label number;
--Label return date;
--Any adverse incident; and
--Name of applicator and affiliation.

     Form 3-2164: Worksheet for Field Application Locations--
Applicators must complete Form 3-2164 for each application of Carbon 
Dioxide-Carp before the actual application. This form collects the 
following information:

--Applicant's information, to include address, date of birth, contact 
number(s), email address, and relevant business information (if 
application is on behalf of a business, corporation, public agency, 
Tribe, or institution);
--Site information, to include the name and address of the location; 
applicator name, address, telephone number, and email address; and the 
applicator's certification number; and
--Carbon Dioxide-Carp use information, to include estimated pounds of 
Carbon Dioxide-Carp needed, estimated dates of use, purpose, and a list 
of obtained permits.

     Form 3-2191: Results Report Form--Investigator must submit 
application results to the Service to document efficacy of the 
treatment and any possible adverse effects, as this data is required by 
the EPA to maintain product registration. This form collects the 
following information:

--Applicant's information, to include address, date of birth, contact 
number(s), email address, and relevant business information (if 
application is on behalf of a business, corporation, public agency, 
Tribe, or institution);
--Site information (to include GPS coordinates and city/county/state) 
and reporting individual; and
--Application information, to include total amount of Carbon Dioxide-
Carp used (pounds), application date(s), adverse incident information 
(to include date reported to the U.S. Geological Survey), applicator 
name and label number, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System 
Permit number, and other required permits and permit numbers.

     Form 3-2541: 6(a)(2) Adverse Incident Report--Investigator 
must submit application adverse results to the Service to document any 
irregularities in the application circumstances or adverse effects on 
non-target organisms. This form collects the following information:

--Administrative data, to include reporting and contact individual (if 
different), address and phone number, incident status, location and 
date of incident, when registrant became aware of incident, and whether 
incident was part of a larger study;
--Pesticide data, to include whether exposure was to concentrate prior 
to dilution;
--Incident circumstances, to include whether there is evidence that 
label directions were not followed, whether applicator is a certified 
pest control operator, type of exposure, incident site, situation, and 
brief description of habitat and incident circumstances; and
--Information involving fish, wildlife, plants, or other non-target 
organisms; species; symptoms or adverse effects; magnitude of the 
effects; and any explanatory or qualifying information surrounding the 
incident.

improve the customer experience and to reduce time burden on 
respondents. This system enhances the user experience by allowing users 
to enter data from any device that has internet access, including 
personal computers, tablets, and smartphones. It will also link the 
permit applicant to the Pay.gov system for payment of any associated 
fees.

Maintenance fee of $400, a State registration fee of $252; and an 
administrative fee of $848 (totaling $15,000 ($1,500 x 10 
respondents)). Each respondent will also incur a one-time startup cost 
of $3,000 (totaling $30,000 ($3,000 x 10 respondents)).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number.
    The authority for this action is the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
