Migratory Bird Hunting and Permits; Regulations for Managing Harvest of Light Goose Populations
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to reduce the information collection requirements for participants in the light goose conservation order, which authorizes methods of take to increase harvest of certain populations of light geese in the Atlantic, Central, and Mississippi Flyways, and to reduce the burden on State and tribal wildlife agencies that are required to submit annual light goose harvest reports to the Service.

This action would relieve requirements on certain individuals, States, and tribes.
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended; Notice to Amend an Existing System of Records
Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the Department of the Interior is issuing a public notice of its intent to amend the National Park Service Privacy Act system of records, ``Special Use PermitsInterior, NPS-1,'' to update the system location, categories of individuals covered by the system, categories of records in the system, authority, routine uses, storage, safeguards, retention and disposal, system manager and address, notification procedures, records access and contesting procedures, and record source categories.

The system also assists park staff to manage the activity to ensure that the permitted activity does not interfere with the enjoyment of the park by visitors and that the natural and cultural resources of the park are protected.
