In that notice, we solicited comments for 60 days, ending on December 1, 2023. In an effort to increase public awareness of, and participation in, our public commenting processes associated with information collection requests (ICRs), the Service also published the Federal Register notice on Regulations.gov (Docket No. FWS–HQ–NWRS–2023– 0126). We received five comments (described below) in response to that notice: Comments 1 and 2: Two comments objected to collecting information from specific populations and the effectiveness of survey’s information collection tools. Agency Response to Comments 1 and 2: Input from a variety of populations and recreation groups is critical to a robust understanding of potential impacts from management, planning, and policy decisions. Information collection and understanding social landscapes help the Service better meet its mission of working with others to conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, and plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American People. The agency took no action to unilaterally exclude public input from certain recreation groups or prevent stakeholder input as a tool to inform decisions. Comment 3: One comment was about the appropriate use of animals for hunting, fishing, and trapping. Agency Response to Comment 3: The agency took no action from this comment, as it is unrelated to the information collection. Comments 4 and 5: Two comments were supportive the use of information collection to better understand customers. One of these comments also discussed methods to improve inclusivity and reduce agency burden with the use of technology. Agency Response to Comments 4 and 5: The agency appreciates support of its efforts and suggestions to improve information collection.
