Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 43 / Tuesday, March 6, 2007 / Notices
Reclamation irrigation water deliveries
occurred after October 1, 1981 [43 CFR
426.6(b)(2)]. A new ‘‘Religious or
Charitable Organization Identification
Sheet’’ (Form 7–2578) has been
developed for approval as part of this
information collection, and will allow
us to establish certain religious or
charitable organizations’ compliance
with Federal reclamation law.
Reclamation anticipates a very minimal
increase in burden hours resulting from
the addition of this form because of the
very limited type of landholders that
can use this form. The Religious or
Charitable Organization Identification
Sheet is disbursed at our discretion and
will be effective starting in the 2008
water year.
Frequency: Generally, these forms
will be submitted once per identified
entity, trust, public entity, or religious
or charitable organization. Each year, we
expect new responses in accordance
with the following numbers.
Respondents: Entity landholders,
trusts, public entities, and religious or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Individual Landholder’s and
Farm Operator’s Certification and
Reporting Forms for Acreage Limitation,
43 CFR part 426 and 43 CFR part 428.
Abstract: This information collection
requires certain landholders (direct or
indirect landowners or lessees) and farm
operators to complete forms
demonstrating their compliance with
the acreage limitation provisions of
Federal reclamation law. These forms
are submitted to districts who use the
information to establish each
landholder’s status with respect to
landownership limitations, full-cost
pricing thresholds, lease requirements,
and other provisions of Federal
reclamation law. In addition, forms are
submitted by certain farm operators to
provide information concerning the
services they provide and the nature of
their farm operating arrangements. All
landholders whose entire westwide
landholdings total 40 acres or less are
E:\FR\FM\06MRN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 43 / Tuesday, March 6, 2007 / Notices
exempt from the requirement to submit
RRA forms. Landholders who are
‘‘qualified recipients’’ have RRA forms
submittal thresholds of 80 acres or 240
acres depending on the district’s RRA
forms submittal threshold category
where the land is held. Only farm
operators who provide multiple services
to more than 960 acres held in trusts or
by legal entities are required to submit
forms.
Changes to the RRA forms and the
instructions to those forms. We made a
few editorial changes to the currently
approved RRA forms and the
instructions to those forms that are
designed to assist the respondents by
increasing their understanding of the
forms, clarifying the instructions for use
when completing the forms, and
clarifying the information that is
required to be submitted to the districts
with the forms. The proposed revisions
to the RRA forms will be included
starting in the 2008 water year.
Frequency: Annually.
