ACTION: Notice of renewal and request
for comments.
AGENCY:
The Bureau of Reclamation
intends to submit a request for renewal
of an existing approved information
collection to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB): Diversions, Return
Flow, and Consumptive Use of Colorado
River Water in the Lower Colorado
River Basin (OMB Control Number
1006–0015).
DATES: Send written comments by June
25, 2012.

information collection forms or to
submit comments on this information
collection, contact Maria Germain (LC–

Reclamation, (702) 293–8192.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
The Bureau of Reclamation
(Reclamation) delivers Colorado River
water to water users for diversion and
beneficial consumptive use in the States
of Arizona, California, and Nevada. The
Consolidated Decree of the United
States Supreme Court in the case of
Arizona v. California, et al., entered
March 27, 2006, (547 U.S. 150 (2006))
requires the Secretary of the Interior to
prepare and maintain complete,
detailed, and accurate records of
diversions of water, return flow, and
consumptive use and make these
records available at least annually. This
information is needed to ensure that a
State or a water user within a State does
not exceed its authorized use of
Colorado River water. Water users are
obligated by provisions in their water
delivery contracts to provide
Reclamation information on diversions
and return flows. Reclamation
determines the consumptive use by
subtracting return flow from diversions
or by other engineering means. Without
the information collected, Reclamation
could not comply with the order of the
United States Supreme Court to prepare
and maintain detailed and accurate
records of diversions, return flow, and
consumptive use.
II. Data
OMB Control Number: 1006–0015.
Title: Diversions, Return Flow, and
Consumptive Use of Colorado River

respondents will include the Lower
Basin States (Arizona, California, and
Nevada), local and tribal entities, water
districts, and individuals that use
Colorado River water.

otherwise as determined by the
Secretary of the Interior.
Estimated total number of
respondents: 54.
Estimated number of responses per
respondent: 1 annually and/or 12
monthly.
Estimated total number of annual
responses: 292.
