instructions to review Department of the
Interior collections under review by
OMB.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Bureau of Indian Affairs is
currently in the process of revising the
regulations governing the Indian
Reservations Roads (IRR) program. The
proposed rule was published in the
Federal Register on December 19, 2014
(79 FR 76192), which will update the
Indian Reservation Roads program to
the Tribal Transportation Program. The
request for approval for this information
collection does not include the
suggestions and feedback on the
proposed regulations, but instead will
allow current participants to submit
information required under the current
regulations, pending the finalization
and effective date of any revisions. In
addition, there is a reduction in burden
hours due to the elimination of the IRR
High Priority Projects program under 23
U.S.C. 202(b)(3)(ii). All other programs
identified under 25 CFR part 170 are
valid. For this reason, the BIA is
requesting approval for the revision to
the information collection conducted
under 25 CFR part 170.
This collection allows federally
recognized tribal governments to
participate in the Indian Reservation
Roads (IRR) program as defined in 25
U.S.C. 202. The information collection
determines the allocation of the IRR
program funds to Indian tribes as
described in 25 U.S.C. 202(b).
II. Request for Comments
On June 10, 2015, BIA published a
notice announcing the renewal of this
information collection and provided a
60-day comment period in the Federal
Register (80 FR 32976). There were no
comments received in response to this
notice.
The BIA requests your comments on
this collection concerning: (a) The
necessity of this information collection
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden (hours
and cost) of the collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Ways we could enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) Ways we could
minimize the burden of the collection of
the information on the respondents.
