Abstract:
The Endangered Species Act (ESA) requires that fish or wildlife be imported into or exported from the United States only at a designated port or at a nondesignated port under certain circumstances. We use the information that we collect on FWS Form 3-200-2 to determine if an applicant qualifies to use a nondesignated port. The ESA also makes it unlawful for any person to engage in business as an importer or exporter of fish or wildlife without first obtaining permission from the Secretary of the Interior. We use the information that we collect on FWS Form 3-200-3 to enforce the Import/Export license conditions derived from the ESA.

Short Statement:
For this information collection renewal, we are estimating that there will be 11,915 responses totaling 14,891 burden hours, which is a net decrease of 3,763 responses and 4,705 burden hours from our previous request. There is an adjustment decrease of 4,708 hours, due mostly to the significant reduction in the number of import/export licenses issued annually. We are reporting as a program change a net increase of 3 responses and 3 burden hours as follows: We do not foresee any circumstances where we would ask an individual to submit a report on activities conducted under a designated port exception permit. Therefore, we eliminated the 2 responses and 2 burden hours included in our previous submission. We have included 5 responses totaling 5 burden hours associated with a report that may be required of import/export license holders. While the above reporting requirement is included in the regulations and is not new, our previous request inadvertently omitted the burden. We are also reporting as an adjustment, a decrease of $378,100 for application fees due to the reduced number of permit/license applications received.
