    Title: Tramroads and Logging Roads (43 CFR part 2810).

    Abstract: This collection of information pertains to the management 
of tramroads and logging roads over public lands administered by the 
BLM, including the Revested O. and C. Railroad Grant Lands and 
Reconveyed CBWR lands. On these lands in western Oregon, the BLM Oregon 
State Office has authority under the Act of August 28, 1937 (43 U.S.C. 
1181a and 1181b) and Subchapter V of the Federal Land Policy and 
Management Act (43 U.S.C. 1761-1771) to grant rights-of-way to private 
landowners to transport their timber over BLM-controlled roads. These 
rights-of-way are in the form of permits or reciprocal right-of-way 
agreements.
    Each right-of-way permit or agreement requires the holder to 
provide the BLM with a certified statement, on Form OR 2812-6 (Report 
of Road Use), disclosing the amount of timber removed, the lands from 
which the timber was removed, and the BLM roads used to transport the 
timber. The BLM uses the information to determine the amount of charges 
for such use. Responses are mandatory.
    Frequency of Collection: On occasion for all aspects of this 
information collection.
    Annual Burden Hours: 272 responses with 8 hours per response totals 
2,176 burden hours.
    Annual Non-hour Burden Cost: There are no processing fees 
associated with this collection.
    Comments: As required in 5 CFR 1320.8(d), the BLM published the 60-
day notice in the Federal Register on June 16, 2010 (75 FR 34150) 
soliciting comments from the public and other interested parties. The 
comment period closed on August 16, 2010. The BLM did not receive any 
comments from the public in response to this notice, and did not 
receive any unsolicited comments.
    The BLM now requests comments on the following subjects:
    1. Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper functioning of the BLM, including whether the information will 
have practical utility;
    2. The accuracy of the BLM's estimate of the burden of collecting 
the information, including the validity of the methodology and 
assumptions used;
    3. The quality, utility and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and
    4. How to minimize the information collection burden on those who 
are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, 
mechanical, or other forms of information technology.
    Please send comments to the addresses listed under ADDRESSES. 
Please refer to OMB Control Number 1004-0168 in your correspondence. 
Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other 
personal identifying information in your comment, be aware that your 
entire comment--including your personal identifying information--may be 
made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your 
comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public 
review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
