salmon captured in the Keswick Dam
fish trap. Eggs produced from these fish
will be incubated at Livingston Stone
NFH until the eyed stage, at which time
they will be moved off-station by CDFW
to remote-site incubators (RSIs) installed
on Butte, Clear, Deer, and/or Mill
creeks. In addition to the artificial
propagation of spring-run Chinook
salmon at Livingston Stone NFH in the
capacity described above, natural-origin
spring-run Chinook salmon trapped at
Keswick Dam in excess of the agreed
upon spawning target, or otherwise not
selected for propagation, be translocated
to Butte, Clear, Deer, and/or Mill creeks,
instead of returning them to the
Sacramento River at Caldwell Park. This
action will promote spawning in higherquality tributary spawning and rearing
habitats that are spatially separated from
adult fall-run Chinook salmon
spawners.
Permit 18181–6M
The permit modification requested by
CDFW will allow for the operation of
RSIs in various Central Valley rivers.
The use of RSIs is expected to enhance
the survival of ESA-listed Chinook
salmon by: (1) spreading the risk of
adverse impacts to early life stages
caused by drought conditions; (2)
assessing the efficacy of RSI systems for
potential use in any future
reintroduction program efforts; and/or
(3) studying the growth, survival, and
outmigration timing of juvenile salmon
in their historical habitat to inform longterm reintroduction planning. RSIs may
be deployed and operated in the
McCloud River using Sacramento River
winter-run Chinook salmon eggs from
Livingston Stone NFH. RSIs in Butte,
Clear, Deer, and/or Mill creeks would
utilize Central Valley spring-run
Chinook salmon eggs from adults
incidentally captured at the Keswick
Dam fish trap and spawned at
Livingston Stone NFH.
CDFW also proposes to carry out
monitoring and evaluation activities to
assess the performance of reintroduction
efforts in the McCloud River. Snorkel
surveys may be conducted to monitor
outmigration timing, juvenile
distribution, and habitat use. Juveniles
will be recaptured using rotary screw
traps (or an alternative juvenile capture
method, if determined necessary),
which may include efficiency trials to
expand fish counts to estimates of
growth, survival and productivity of
juveniles in the McCloud River. Habitatassociations will be assessed through
snorkel surveys and/or backpack
electrofishing at various locations in the
McCloud River from Ah Di Na to Lake
Shasta.

permits are issued in accordance with
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA (16 U.S.C.
1531 et seq.) and regulations governing
listed fish and wildlife permits (50 CFR
222–226). NMFS issues permits based
on finding that such permits: (1) are
applied for in good faith; (2) if granted
and exercised, would not operate to the
disadvantage of the listed species that
are the subject of the permit; and (3) are
consistent with the purposes and policy
of section 2 of the ESA. The authority
to take listed species is subject to
conditions set forth in the permits.
Anyone requesting a hearing on an
application listed in this notice should
set out the specific reasons why a
hearing on that application would be
appropriate (see ADDRESSES). Such
hearings are held at the discretion of the
Assistant Administrator for Fisheries,
NMFS.
Applications Received
This notice is provided pursuant to
section 10(c) of the ESA. NMFS will
evaluate the applications, associated
documents, and comments submitted to
determine whether the applications
meet the requirements of section 10(a)
of the ESA and Federal regulations. The
final permit decisions will not be made
until after the end of the 30-day
comment period. NMFS will publish
notice of its final action in the Federal
Register.

Under the

Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined

or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or

control number.1
Title: Rules Relating to Regulation of
Domestic Exchange-Traded Options,
OMB Control Number 3038–0007. This
is a request for extension of a currently
approved collection.
Abstract: Commission Regulations
33.7 and 33.8,2 respectively, require
futures commission merchants (FCMs)
and introducing brokers (IBs): (1) to
provide retail (i.e., non-eligible contract
participant) 3 customers with, and
retain, standard risk disclosure
statements concerning the risk of
trading certain domestic exchangetraded commodity options; 4 and (2) to
retain all related promotional material
and the source of authority for
information contained therein. These
requirements help assure that these
customers are not fraudulently induced
to invest in these commodity options by
persons who misrepresent the risks of
such transactions. The recordkeeping
requirements assist the Commission and
the National Futures Association (NFA)
in verifying registrants’ compliance with
their disclosure obligations and
ensuring that related promotional
material is not fraudulent or misleading.
This information collection contains
the third-party disclosure and
recordkeeping requirements needed to
ensure regulatory compliance by FCMs
and IBs with these Commission
Regulations.
With respect to the above collection of
information, the CFTC invites
comments on:
• Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information will have a practical use;
• The accuracy of the Commission’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;

FR 63035 (Dec. 30, 1981).
CFR 33.7 and 33.8.
3 Commission Regulation 33.7 does not require
FCMs or IBs to provide the disclosure or obtain a
related acknowledgment from institutional
customers. See 17 CFR 33.7(a)(1). Commission
Regulation 1.3 provides that ‘‘institutional
customer’’ has the same meaning as ‘‘eligible
contract participant’’ (‘‘ECP’’) as defined in section
1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act (‘‘CEA’’).
Under the CEA, an ECP includes, for example, a
financial institution, an insurance company, and a
corporation with $10 million in assets.
4 See Commission Regulation 33.2(b). 17 CFR
33.2(b) (providing that Part 33 of the Commission’s
Regulations applies to commodity option
transactions that are options on contracts of sale of
a commodity for future delivery except for
commodity option transactions that are options on
contracts of sale of a commodity for future delivery
conducted or executed on or subject to the rules of
a foreign board of trade).
