Title: Recreation Fee and Wilderness
Program Administration.
OMB Control Number: 0596–0106.
Summary of Collection: The Federal
Lands Recreation and Enhancement Act
(16 U.S.C. 6801–6814) authorizes the
Forest Service (FS) to collect recreation
fees for use of government facilities and
services. The Organic Administration
Act (16 U.S.C. 473), the Wilderness Act
(16 U.S.C. 1131), and Wild and Scenic
Rivers Act (16 U.S.C. 1271) authorize FS
to collect information from National
Forest System visitors who are asked to
describe the location of their visit and
estimated duration of stay. Every year
millions of people visit National Forest
System recreations sites. At some of
these sites, the public is required to pay
a fee to use the site. Fees are charged to
help cover the costs of operating and
maintaining fee sites, areas, and
facilities such as campgrounds. FS will
collect information from the forms to
document when visitors pay a required
recreation fee and to schedule requests
for use and occupancy of government
owned facilities.
Need and Use of the Information:
Forms used to collection information
and fees from visitors: (1) The
Recreation Fee Permit Envelope (FS
2300–26 and 26a); (2) Permit for ShortTerm, Non-commercial Use of
Government-Owned Cabins and
Lookouts (FS 2300–43); (3) Visitor
Permit (FS–2300–30); (4) Visitor
Registration Card (FS–2300–32); (5)
National Recreation Application (FS–
2300–47) and (6) National Recreation
Permit (FS–2300–48). Personal
information includes, but not limited to,
names, addresses, telephone number,
length of stay, amount paid, requested
dates of occupancy, party size and
vehicle registration are collected. If this
information and fees was not collected
FS could not monitor visitation rates in
special management areas to prevent
overuse and site deterioration in
environmentally sensitive areas.
Description of Respondents:
Individuals or households.
Number of Respondents: 1,950,000.

National Institute of Food and

Title: Expanded Food and Nutrition
Education Program (EFNEP).
OMB Control Number: 0524–0044.
Summary of Collection: The
Department of Agriculture’s National
Institute of Food and Agriculture
(NIFA), Expanded Food and Nutrition
Education Program (EFNEP) is a unique
program that began in 1969 and is
designed to reach limited resource
audiences, especially youth and families
with young children. EFNEP operates in
all 50 states, the District of Columbia
and in American Samoa, Guam,
Micronesia, Northern Marianas, Puerto
Rico, and the Virgin Islands. The
objectives of EFNEP are to assist
families and youth with limited
resources in acquiring the knowledge,
skills, attitudes, and changed behaviors
necessary for nutritionally sound diets,
and to contribute to their personal
development and the improvement of
the total family diet and nutritional
well-being.
Need and Use of the Information:
NIFA will collect information using
Web-Based Nutrition Education
Evaluation and Reporting System
(WebNEERS), which is an integrated
database system that stores information
on: (1) Programmatic results: (A) Adult
program participants, their family
structure and dietary practices; (B)
youth group participants; and (C) staff;
and (2) programmatic plans (D) annual
budget; and (E) annual program plans.
Without the information it would be
extremely difficult for the national
office to compare, assess, and analyze
the effectiveness and the impact of
EFNEP without the annual collection of
data.
Description of Respondents: State,
Local or Tribal Government.

Title: Performance Reporting System,
Management Evaluation.
OMB Number: 0584–0010.
Expiration Date: October 31, 2022.
Type of Request: Extension, without
change, of a currently approved
collection.
Abstract: The purpose of the
Performance Reporting System (PRS) is
to ensure that each State agency and
project area is operating the
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program (SNAP) in accordance with the
requirements of the Food and Nutrition
Act of 2008 (the Act) (7 U.S.C. 2011, et
seq.), as amended, and corresponding
program regulations. Under Section 11
of the Act (7 U.S.C. 2020), State agencies
must maintain necessary records to
ascertain that SNAP is operating in
compliance with the Act and
regulations and must make these
records available to the Food and
Nutrition Service (FNS) for inspection
and audit.
Per Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
Part 275, each State agency is required
to submit one Management Evaluation
(ME) review schedule every one, two, or
three years, depending on the project
area make-up of the State, unless the
State receives approval for an
alternative Management Evaluation
review schedule.
Under 7 CFR part 275, each State
must establish a system for analysis and
evaluation of all data available to the
State. Data analysis and evaluation is an
ongoing process that facilitates the
development of effective and prompt
corrective action.
Under 7 CFR part 275, State agencies
must prepare a corrective action plan
(CAP) addressing identified
deficiencies. The State agencies must
develop a system for monitoring and
evaluating corrective action and submit
CAP updates, as necessary.
Affected Public: State, Local and
Tribal Government; Respondent Type:
SNAP State and local agencies.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 53
State agencies.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: State agencies will submit
one review schedule and one corrective
action plan per year, and will conduct
and document ME reviews for an
average total of 27 project areas, totaling
29 responses per State agency.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:
1,537 (53 State agencies * 29 estimated
responses per State Agency).
Estimated Time per Response: FNS
estimates that it takes 4 hours to prepare
a review schedule, and that each of the
53 State agencies will submit one
review schedule per year resulting in a
total burden of 212 hours (53 State
