disability may dial 711 (TTY, TDD, or
TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States. You may
also view the information collection
request (ICR) at http://www.reginfo.gov/
public/do/PRAMain.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we
provide the general public and other
Federal agencies with an opportunity to
comment on new, proposed, revised,
and continuing collections of
information. This helps us assess the
impact of our information collection
requirements and minimize the public’s
reporting burden. It also helps the
public understand our information
collection requirements and provide the
requested data in the desired format.
On August 17, 2023, we published in
the Federal Register (88 FR 56046) a
notice of our intent to request that OMB
approve this information collection. In
that notice, we solicited comments for
60 days, ending on October 16, 2023. In
an effort to increase public awareness
of, and participation in, our public
commenting processes associated with
information collection requests, the
Service also published the Federal
Register notice on Regulations.gov
(Docket No. FWS–HQ–LE–2023–0105)
to provide the public with an additional
method to submit comments (in
addition to the typical Info_Coll@
fws.gov email and U.S. mail submission
methods). We received one comment
which did not address the information
collection requirements; therefore, no
response is required.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we are again soliciting
comments from the public and other
Federal agencies on the proposed ICR
that is described below. We are
especially interested in public comment
addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of

information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your
address, phone number, email address,
or other personal identifying
information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire
comment—including your personal
identifying information—may be made
publicly available at any time. While
you can ask us in your comment to
withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Abstract: The Service’s Office of Law
Enforcement at the Federal Law
Enforcement Training Centers (FLETC)
coordinates and conducts training for
Service special agents, wildlife
inspectors, and administrative staff, as
well as for State, Tribal, and foreign
individuals responsible for wildlife and
habitat protection. Over the past decade,
there have been substantial increases in
the numbers of programs and
individuals trained, hours of training
provided, and numbers of training sites.
The Training and Development Unit
(TDU) at FLETC collects the required
information necessary to administer
training programs as authorized by the
following:
• Bald and Golden Eagle Protection
Act (16 U.S.C. 668–668c);
• Lacey Act (18 U.S.C. 42–43; 16
U.S.C. 3371–3378);
• National Wildlife Refuge System
Administration Act (16 U.S.C 668dd–
668ee);
• Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act
(16 U.S.C. 718–718h);
• Migratory Bird Treaty Act (16
U.S.C. 703–712);
• Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C.
1531–1543);
• Marine Mammal Protection Act (16
U.S.C. 1361–1407);
• Refuge Recreation Act (16 U.S.C.
460k–460k–4);
• Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1202–
1527);
• Uniform Federal Crime Reporting
Act (28 U.S.C. 534);
• USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (Pub. L.
107–56);
• USA PATRIOT Improvement and
Reauthorization Act of 2005 (Pub. L.
109–177);
• Intelligence Reform and Terrorism
Prevention Act of 2004 (Pub. L. 108–
458);

• Homeland Security Act of 2002
(Pub. L. 107–296);
• Homeland Security Presidential
Directive 12—Policy for a Common
Identification Standard for Federal
Employees and Contractors; and
• Criminal Intelligence Systems
Operating Policies, 28 CFR part 23.
The TDU collects the below listed
information from prospective domestic
trainees requesting attendance in a
training program:
• Applicant’s full legal name, contact,
and identifying information;
• Emergency contact name and phone
number;
• Photograph;
• Biography;
• Highest education level; and
• Law enforcement affiliation
information, to include title/rank,
experience, and agency contacts.
Course participants automatically
receive the post-course evaluation form
soliciting provide feedback on the
following:
• Length of experience;
• Program length;
• Overall ratings;
• Content, presentation, and course
materials;
• Labs, practical exercises, and
written exams;
• Program outcomes; and
• General comments.
We use the information collected to
administratively record, track, and
manage training records of domestic and
foreign students affiliated with law
enforcement agencies who attend
training offered by the Service. The
information also allows us to verify the
records of previous attendees (upon
official inquiry only) by name, country
of origin, or specific identifying number.

Proposed Revisions
The Service is proposing to revise this
information collection as follows:
1. (Discontinue) Account Registration
(Foreign Students): We will request
OMB approval to discontinue the
previously approved information
collection associated with the
registration of international students
attending TDU training. The State
Department coordinates the vetting
process for all prospective students. The
State Department relies on the host
country to vet the prospective students
and uses a certification process for final
selections which is exempt from the
requirements of the PRA. Therefore,
they do not have a control number for
their selection/registration process.
The Service does not collect
registration information for
international students; therefore, we
will request OMB approve our request

VerDate Sep<11>2014

18:32 Jan 02, 2024

Jkt 262001

to discontinue this specific information
collection within OMB Control No.
1018–0180. Approval of this request to
discontinue the information collection
associated with registration of
international students will result in an
annual burden decrease of 1,000
responses and 250 burden hours. We
will continue to request OMB approval
of the burden associated with
international students completing the
course evaluations.
2. (New) Pre-Course Evaluation: We
also propose to request OMB approval
of the pre-test administered prior to the
start of training. The pre-test gauges the
participant’s knowledge on topics such
as adaptive leadership, adaptive
challenges, use of intervention
techniques, how to manage
disequilibrium while exercising
leadership, the use of interpretation
during the diagnostic process, and
systems thinking. At this time, we use
Microsoft Office to deliver the pre-test.
A link is sent to the participants, and
they click on the link, take the test, and
submit. This is an anonymous test, as
we do not ask their name and it is used
to show that knowledge of the
curriculum has been gained during the
program.
Title of Collection: U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service Law Enforcement
Training System.
OMB Control Number: 1018–0180.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Domestic and international students
who attend the law enforcement/
conservation training offered by the
TDU.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Respondents: 164.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 164.
Estimated Completion Time per
Response: Completion times vary from
10 minutes to 20 minutes, depending on
activity.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 29.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain a benefit.
Frequency of Collection: One time for
the initial registration, and on occasion
for pre- and post-course evaluations.
Total Estimated Annual Nonhour
Burden Cost: None.
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.
