Public comments were previously requested via the Federal Register on June 6, 2024, during a 60-day comment period. This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Commerce. Title: Permits for Incidental Taking of Endangered or Threatened Species. OMB Control Number: 0648–0230. Form Number(s): None. Type of Request: Regular submission [extension of a current information collection]. Number of Respondents: 35. Average Hours per Response: 80 hours for a permit application (including Habitat Conservation Plans), 1 hour for transfer of an incidental take permit, 8 hours for a permit report, 30 minutes for a Certificate of Inclusion (when applicable), and 10 hours for a watershed plan (when applicable). Total Annual Burden Hours: 427. Needs and Uses: This request is for an extension of a currently approved information collection. The Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) imposed prohibitions against the taking of endangered species. In 1982, Congress revised the ESA to allow permits authorizing the taking of endangered species incidental to otherwise lawful activities. The corresponding regulations (50 CFR part 222.222) established procedures for persons to apply for such a permit. In addition, the regulations set forth specific reporting requirements for such permit holders. The regulations contain three sets of information collections: (l) applications for incidental take permits, (2) applications for certificates of inclusion, and (3) reporting requirements for permits issued. Certificates of inclusion are only required if a general permit is issued to a representative of a group of potential permit applicants, rather than requiring each entity to apply for and receive a permit. The required information is used to evaluate the impacts of the proposed activity on endangered species, to make the determinations required by the ESA prior to issuing a permit, and to establish appropriate permit conditions.
