SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: Federal Subsistence Designated Hunter Permit Application.
    OMB Approval Number: (To be Assigned).
    Abstract: Under the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act 
(ANILCA) allows the taking of fish and wildlife on public lands in 
Alaska for subsistence use. In order to take fish and wildlife in 
public lands for subsistence uses, users must possess and comply with 
the provisions of any pertinent permit, harvest tickets, or tags 
required by the State, or Federal permits, harvest tickets or tags as 
required by the Federal Subsistence Board (Board). Where the Board, as 
described in 50 CFR 100.10, has made a customary and traditional use 
determination regarding subsistence of a specific fish stock or 
wildlife population, only those Alaskans who are residents or rural 
areas or communities so designated are eligible for subsistence taking 
of that population, on public lands for subsistence uses. Where 
customary and traditional use determinations for a fish stock or 
wildlife population within a specific area have not yet been made by 
the Board. All Alaskans who are residents of rural areas or communities 
are eligible to participate in subsistence taking of that stock or 
population under the regulations in 50 CFR 100.
    Information on the hunter, qualified subsistence users hunted for 
and their animals harvested, location, and sex is needed by the Board 
in making recommendations on subsistence use. The information is used 
to determine priorities for subsistence among rural Alaskan residents.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Description of Respondents: Individuals and households.
    Estimated Completion Time: The reporting burden is estimated to be 
.025 hours (15 minutes) per response.
    Annual Responses: 7,000.
    Annual Burden Hours: 175.

    Dated: June 12, 1996.
