| 01-26368 | Request for Public Comments on Information Collection Submitted to OMB for Review Under the Paperwork Reduction Act | Notice | The North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) is a long- term, large-scale avian monitoring program that was initiated in 1966 to track the status and trends of continental bird populations. Each spring, interested volunteers conduct 3-minute point counts of birds along roadsides across the United States. Data can be submitted electronically via the Internet or on hard copy. These data provide an index of population abundance that can be used to estimate population trends and relative abundances at various geographic scales. Declining population trends act as an early warning system to galvanize research to determine the causes of these declines and reverse them before populations reach critically low levels. The BBS currently provides population trend estimates for 420 bird species and raw data for more than 650 species via the web. Estimated Annual Number of Respondents: 2500. Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 12,500 hours. Affected Public: Primarily U.S. residents. For Further Information Contact: To obtain copies of the survey, contact the Bureau clearance officer, U.S. Geological Survey, 807 National Center, 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive, Reston, Virginia, 20192, telephone (703) 648-7313. | 2001-10-19 | 2001 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/10/19/01-26368/request-for-public-comments-on-information-collection-submitted-to-omb-for-review-under-the | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-10-19/pdf/01-26368.pdf | Interior Department; Geological Survey | 253,212 | The North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) is a long- term, large-scale avian monitoring program that was initiated in 1966 to track the status and trends of continental bird populations.
