(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How the agency might minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.

Abstract: Respondents supply the
USGS with bird count data for more
than 600 North American bird species.
These data and the analyzed relative
abundance and population trend
estimates derived from them will be
made available via the internet and
through special publications, which are
used by government agencies, industry,
education programs, and the general
public. We will protect information
from respondents considered
proprietary under the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552), its
implementing regulations (43 CFR part
2), and in accordance with ‘‘Data and
information to be made available to the
public or for limited inspection,’’ (30
CFR 250.197). Responses are voluntary.
No questions of a ‘‘sensitive’’ nature are
asked.
