This IC is scheduled to expire on March 31, 2017. We 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. DATES: To ensure that we are able to consider your comments on this IC, we must receive them by February 17, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request additional information about this IC, contact Tina Campbell at [email protected] (email) or 703-358-2676 (telephone). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Abstract The Lacey Act (18 U.S.C. 42) (Act) prohibits the importation of any animal deemed to be and prescribed by regulation to be injurious to:Human beings; The interests of agriculture, horticulture, and forestry; or Wildlife or the wildlife resources of the United States. The Department of the Interior is charged with enforcement of this Act. The Act and regulations at 50 CFR 16 allow for the importation of animals classified as injurious if specific criteria are met. To effectively carry out responsibilities and protect the aquatic resources of the United States, we must gather information on the animals being imported with regard to their source, destination, and health status. It is also imperative that we ensure the qualifications of those individuals who provide the fish health data and sign the health certificate upon which we base our decision to allow importation. We use three forms to collect this information: (1) FWS Form 3-2273 (Title 50 Certifying Official Form). New applicants and those seeking recertification as a title 50 certifying official provide information so that we can assess their qualifications. (2) FWS Form 3-2274 (U.S. Title 50 Certification Form). Certifying officials use this form or their own health certificate to affirm the health status of the fish or their reproductive products to be imported. (3) FWS Form 3-2275 (Title 50 Importation Request Form). We use the information on this form to ensure the safety of the shipment and to track and control importations. II. Data OMB Control Number: 1018-0078. Title: Injurious Wildlife; Importation Certification for Live Fish and Fish Eggs, 50 CFR 16.13. Service Form Numbers: 3-2273, 3-2274, and 3-2275.
