SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The IACB is responsible for
promoting the development of
American Indian and Alaska Native Arts
and crafts, improving the economic
status of members of federally
recognized Tribes, and helping to
develop and expand marketing
opportunities for arts and crafts
produced by Native American Indians
and Alaska Natives. This year, the
Secretary of the Interior has mandated
that each department complete a
Strategic Plan. In conjunction with this
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 208001
plan, the Commissioners for the IACB
have requested that the IACB generate
baseline numbers that will be included
in the Strategic Plan, as well as other
statistics that will be used for evaluating
and strengthening our Congressional
mandate. The IACB has designed a
questionnaire that would produce valid
and reliable results that can be
generalized to the entire universe of
study. It is directed toward the Native
American Indian and Alaska Native
artist/artisan constituency. The
questionnaire is to be utilized at Indian
markets across the country, which is
where most artists and artisans served
by the IACB sell their work. Recently,
the IACB learned that it would be able
to participate in the Santa Fe Indian
Market, the largest event in the
Southwest, and felt this would be an
excellent opportunity to utilize the
questionnaire. In order to do this, it
requested emergency approval of the
Indian Artist/Artisan Survey; OMB
approved the survey under OMB
Control Number 1085–0003. The IACB
is planning to extend the information
collection approval for the standard
three years and to add additional
surveys in other regions necessary to
establish a national baseline.
