SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: [[Page 21760]] Information Collection Request OMB Control Number: 1018-0141. Title: Alaska Guide Service Evaluation. Service Form Number: 3-2349. Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection. Description of Respondents: Clients of permitted commercial guide service providers. Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary. Frequency of Collection: One time, following use of commercial guide services. Estimated Annual Number of Respondents: 264. Estimated Total Annual Responses: 264. Estimated Time per Response: 15 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 66. Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: None. Abstract: We collect information on FWS Form 3-2349 (Alaska Guide Service Evaluation) to help us evaluate commercial guide services on our national wildlife refuges in the State of Alaska (State). The National Wildlife Refuge Administration Act of 1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 668dd-ee), authorizes us to permit uses, including commercial visitor services, on national wildlife refuges when we find the activity to be compatible with the purposes for which the refuge was established. With the objective of making available a variety of quality visitor services for wildlife-dependent recreation on National Wildlife Refuge System lands, we issue permits for commercial guide services, including big game hunting, sport fishing, wildlife viewing, river trips, and other guided activities. We use FWS Form 3-2349 as a method to:Monitor the quality of services provided by commercial guides. Gauge client satisfaction with the services. Assess the impacts of the activity on refuge resources. The client is the best source of information on the quality of commercial guiding services. We collect: Client name. Guide name(s). Type of guided activity. Dates and location of guided activity. Information on the services received such as the client's expectations, safety, environmental impacts, and client's overall satisfaction. We encourage respondents to provide any additional comments that they wish regarding the guide service or refuge experience, and ask whether or not they wish to be contacted for additional information. The above information, in combination with State-required guide activity reports and contacts with guides and clients in the field, provides a comprehensive method for monitoring permitted commercial guide activities. A regular program of client evaluation helps refuge managers detect potential problems with guide services so that we can take corrective actions promptly. In addition, we use this information during the competitive selection process for big game and sport fishing guide permits to evaluate an applicant's ability to provide a quality guiding service. Comments Received and Our Responses Comments: On February 2, 2015, we published in the Federal Register (80 FR 5574) a notice of our intent to request that OMB renew approval for this information collection. In that notice, we solicited comments for 60 days, ending on April 3, 2015. We did not receive any comments. Request for Public Comments We again invite comments concerning this information collection on: Whether or not the collection of information is necessary, including whether or not the information will have practical utility; The accuracy of our estimate of the burden for this collection of information; Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents. 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.
