than 40 acres). The Public Entity
Information Sheet is disbursed at our
discretion and will be effective starting
in the 2006 water year. Because of the
addition of this proposed new form to
this information collection, we also
propose that the title of this information
collection be changed to ‘‘Forms for
Certain Landholders That Hold Less
Than 40 Acres for Acreage Limitation.’’
This change in title will allow us to
capture the purpose of the forms in this
information collection without listing
lengthy form names.
Frequency: Generally, these forms
will be submitted once per identified
entity, trust, or public entity. Each year,
we expect new responses in accordance
with the following numbers.
Respondents: Entity landholders,
trusts, and public entities identified by
Reclamation that are subject to the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Certification Summary Form,
Reporting Summary Form for Acreage
Limitation, 43 CFR part 426 and 43 CFR
part 428.
Abstract: These forms are to be used
by district offices to summarize
individual landholder (direct or indirect
landowner or lessee) and farm operator
certification and reporting forms as
required by the RRA, 43 CFR part 426,
and 43 CFR part 428. This information
allows us to establish water user
compliance with Federal reclamation
law.
Changes to the RRA Forms and the
Instructions to Those Forms
The changes made to the current
Form 7–21SUMM–C, Form 7–
21SUMM–R, and the corresponding
instructions clarify the completion
instructions for these forms (for
example, adding verbiage to specify
when requested acreages are to be
provided on a westwide or districtspecific basis). Other changes to the
forms and the corresponding
instructions are editorial in nature and
are designed to assist the respondents
by increasing their understanding of the
forms, and clarifying the instructions for
use when completing the forms. The
proposed revisions to the RRA forms
will be effective in the 2006 water year.

Draft of a New Form
As part of Reclamation’s ongoing
acceptance of users’ comments on the
RRA forms, Reclamation has received a
request to devise a way to more
efficiently track limited recipients that
hold less than 40 acres (i.e., those that
are below the RRA forms submittal
threshold and thus do not submit
standard RRA forms) and the full-cost
and excess land held by such limited
recipients. In an effort to address this
comment Reclamation has drafted a
proposed new form, ‘‘Tabulation H of
Limited Recipients That Hold Less Than
40 Acres, and Full-Cost Landholders
and Excess Landowners That Are Below
the RRA Forms Submittal Threshold.’’
The implementation of this proposed
new form will be based on the public
comments received and if implemented,
will be effective in the 2006 water year
as a mandatory part of the districts’
annual submittal of Form 7–21SUMM–
C and/or Form 7–21SUMM–R, as
appropriate.
