Section 890(b) of the Federal
Agriculture Improvement and Reform
Act of 1996, Public Law 104–127 (1996
Act), expanded the authorities of the
Secretary of Agriculture to charge
reasonable fees for the use of USNA
facilities and grounds. These authorities
include the ability to charge fees for
temporary use by individuals or groups
of USNA facilities and grounds in
furtherance of the mission of the USNA.
Also, authority was provided to charge
fees for tram tours and for the use of the
USNA for commercial photography and
cinematography. All rules and
regulations noted in 7 CFR part 500,
subpart 2A, conducted on the USNA
property will apply to individuals or
groups granted approval to use the
facilities and grounds. In order to
administer the use of the USNA
facilities and to determine if the
requested use is consistent with the
mission of the USNA, it is necessary for
the USNA to obtain information from
the requestor. Each request will require
the completion of an application and
submission of an application fee. The
application is simple and requires only
information readily available to the
requestor. The requestor is asked to
indicate by whom and for what purpose
the USNA facilities are to be used.
Applications are available in hard copy
format as well as electronic format (PDF
fillable) on the USNA Web site
www.usna.usda.gov. Completed permit
requests are received in person, by mail,
and by facsimile.
Paperwork Reduction Act: In
accordance with the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
regulations (5 CFR part 1320)
implementing the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the
information collection and
recordkeeping requirements that will be
imposed will be submitted to OMB for
approval. These requirements will not
become effective prior to OMB approval.
Estimate of Burden:
Estimated Number of Responses: The
USNA estimates 230 requests for the use
of facilities, 54 for photography and
cinematography and 1,606 educational
programs and workshops on an annual
basis.
Estimate of Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: The total cost for
responding is $7,250 for 305 hours of
time at $23.77 per hour.
Obtaining Permit Requests: In
addition to the current process of
obtaining the permit requests in person,
by mail, and by facsimile (and receiving
them back in a like manner), the

agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
