comments on this collection of
information. The Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) has assigned control
number 1004–0019 to this information

OMB
regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, which
implement provisions of the Paperwork

collection and recordkeeping activities
(see 5 CFR 1320.8 (d) and 1320.12(a)).
This notice identifies an information

to OMB for approval. The Paperwork
Reduction Act provides that an agency
may not conduct or sponsor a collection
of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
Until OMB approves a collection of
information, you are not obligated to
respond.
The BLM will request a 3-year term of
approval for this information collection
activity. Comments are invited on: (1)
The need for the collection of
information for the performance of the
functions of the agency; (2) the accuracy
of the agency’s burden estimates; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information collection; and
(4) ways to minimize the information
collection burden on respondents, such
