SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Appalachian Train Management
Partner Survey.
Bureau Form Number: None.
OMB Number: To be requested.
Expiration Date: To be requested.
Type of Request: New Collection.
Description of Need: The National
Park Service Act of 1916, 38 Stat 535,
16 U.S.C. 1, et seq., requires that the
NPS preserve national parks for the use
and enjoyment of present and future
generations. The Appalachian National
Scenic Trail (ANST) is an unusual unit
of the national park system, managed
through a decentralized volunteer-based
cooperative management system
involving eight national forests, six
other national park units, agencies in
fourteen states, the Appalachian Trail
Conservancy, and citizen volunteers in
30 affiliated trail club organizations.
The Government Performance and
Results Act (GPRA) of 1993 (Pub. L.
103–62) requires that the NPS develop
goals and measure performance related
to these goals. The Appalachian Trail
Management Partner Survey (ATMPS)
measures performance toward those
PO 00000
Frm 00095
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
goals through a partner satisfaction
survey. The project is an element of the
NPS Strategic Plan and the Department
of the Interior (DOI) Strategic Plan.
The purpose of the ATMPS is to track
the satisfaction of federal, state, and notfor-profit partner organizations and
agencies receiving support from the
Appalachian Trail Park Office (ATPO)
provides support to State and Federal
agencies, and not-for-profit
organizations to assist them in fulfilling
shared and delegated management
activities in the management of the
ANST. Achievement of on-the-ground
results depends on the actions of these
partner agencies and organizations.
Progress towards management goals is
measured by a satisfaction survey where
key partners evaluate quality of support
provided by ATPO. This effort is
required by GPRA and other NPS and
DOI strategic planning efforts. Data from
the proposed survey is needed to assess
performance regarding NPS GPRA goal
IIb0. HPS performance on all goals
measured in this study will contribute
to DOI Department-wide performance
reports.
Automated data collection: This
information will be collected via mailback surveys. No automated data
collection will take place.
Description of respondents: Partners
in the Appalachian Trail Cooperative
Management System.
Estimated average number of
respondents: 200 (150 respondents and
50 non-respondents).
Estimated average number of
responses: 200 (150 respondents and 50
non-respondents).
Estimated average burden hours per
response: 1 minute for non-respondents
and 3 minutes for respondents.
Frequency of Response: 1 time of
respondent.
Estimated annual reporting burden:
23 hours.
Comments are invited on: (1) The
practical utility of the information being
gathered; (2) the accuracy of the burden
hour estimate; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden to
respondents, including use of
automated information collection
techniques or other forms of technology.
Before including your address, phone
number, e-mail address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Archeology Permits and
Reports—43 CFR Parts 3 and 7.
Bureau Form Number: DI–1926
(permit application).
OMB Number: 1024–0037.
Expiration Date: 1/31/2008.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
Description of Need: Section 4 of the
Archaeological Resources Protection Act
(ARPA) of 1979 (16 U.S.C. 470cc), and
Section 3 of the Antiquities Act (AA) of
1906 (16 U.S.C. 432), authorize any
individual or institution to apply to
Federal land managing agencies to
scientifically excavate or remove
archeological resources from public or
Indian lands. Permits for Archeological
Investigations ordinarily are requested
for conducting scientific research; in
conjunction with statutorily required
environmental clearance activities prior
to commencing a Federal undertaking;
or issuing a Federal license or permit for
a third party activities such as energy
development on public or Indian lands.
ARPA and AA require that Federal
land managers issue permits to qualified
applicants and place terms and
conditions on the permits, including
reporting requirements, as set forth in
the implementing regulation for the two
statutes (43 CFR Part 7 for ARPA; 43
CFR Part 3 for the AA), to ensure that
the resources are scientifically
excavated or removed and deposited,
along with associated records, in a
suitable repository for preservation. If
the permit is for work on Indian lands,
ARPA required that the Federal land
manager place terms and conditions on
the permit as requested by the Indian
landowner and the Indian tribe having
jurisdiction over the lands. If the permit
may have an effect on a resource on
public lands that has Indian tribal
religious or cultural importance, ARPA
requires that the Federal land manager
notify the pertinent tribe for the purpose
of developing terms and conditions to
be placed on the permit.
Section 13 of ARPA (16 U.S.C. 470II)
requires that the Secretary of the Interior
report to Congress on archeological
activities conducted pursuant to the
Act. To fulfill this requirement, the
Secretary must collect information
about permitted activities from the
various land managing agencies and the
Department’s land managing bureaus.
Information collected responds to
statutory requirements that Federal
agencies (1) issue permits to qualified
individuals and institutions desiring to
excavate or remove archeological
resources from public or Indian lands
and (2) specify terms and conditions,
PO 00000

including reporting requirements, in
permits. The information collected is
reported to Congress and is issued for
land management purposes. The
obligation to respond is required to
obtain a benefit.
Automated data collection: This
information will be collected via a paper
form. No automated data collection will
take place.
Frequency of Collection: Once at the
beginning of each archeological project
for which a permit is required. An
interim and/or final report is required at
the end of the archeological project.
Description of Respondents:
Businesses, scholarly institutions, and
tribes wishing to excavate or remove
archeological resources from public or
Indian lands.
Estimated average number of
respondents: 1,600.
Estimated average number of
responses: 3,200.
Estimated average burden hours per
respondent: 3 hours. 2.5 hours to
complete the application form; 30
minutes to complete the investigative
report.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
for applications; upon completion of
project for report.
Estimated total annual reporting
burden: 4,800 hours.
Comments are invited on: (1) The
practical utility of the information being
gathered; (2) the accuracy of the burden
hour estimate; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden to
respondents, including use of
automated information collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology. Before including your
address, phone number, e-mail address,
or other personal identifying
information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire
comment—including your personal
identifying information—may be made
