Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 237 / Monday, December 11, 2006 / Notices
under permit on FS managed land
(permittees). Cultural differences and
historic problems over land use
contribute to disagreements and
misunderstanding between the
permittees and federal land managers.
Information on the economic, social,
and cultural contributions of livestock
ownership to federal permittees is of
interest to land managers, policy
makers, social scientists, the general
public, and the permittees themselves.
FS will use a questionnaire to collect
information from livestock permittees
from the Santa Fe and Carson National
Forest.
Need and Use of the Information: FS
will collect data on economic, social,
and cultural contributions of livestock
ownership to the permittees of northern
New Mexico. The information will help
FS personnel manage the land more
effectively and work more cooperatively
with the permittees by increasing
understanding of the local culture and
the role of livestock ownership in that
culture. If the data is not collected,
grazing allotment plans and forest plan
revisions will not be based on the most
current and appropriate socio-cultural
and economic information.
Description of Respondents:
Individuals or households; farms;
business or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 150.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting:
On occasion.
