acres of scattered parcels that
encompass the Monument. As
proposed, target shooting would be
prohibited within these areas—which
vary from less than 0.1 acres to
approximately 400 acres—and include
developed campgrounds, small day use
areas, small rocks and islands, structural
cultural sites (including lighthouses),
and sensitive archaeological sites. The
proposed closure would help protect the
cultural objects and values for which
the Monument was designated, and
provide for public safety at small,
recreational sites. The proposed closure
would ensure that irreplaceable
archaeological resources and structural
cultural sites would not inadvertently,
or purposefully, be damaged by target
shooting activities in the Monument. In
addition, the proposed closure would
enhance the safety of the public visiting
sites in the Monument, which would
improve their experience. In accordance
with John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation,
Management, and Recreation Act of
2019 (Dingell Act, Pub. L. 116–9,
Section 4103), the BLM is announcing
the opening of a 60-day public comment
period on the proposed target shooting
closure. During this time-period, the
BLM is only accepting comments on the
proposed target shooting closure. All
comments must be received by January
21, 2020 and must be submitted using
one of the methods listed in the
ADDRESSES section, above.
All protests must be in writing and
submitted as set forth in the DATES and
ADDRESSES sections, above. The BLM
Director will render a written decision
on each protest. The decision will be
mailed to the protesting party. The
decision of the BLM Director shall be
the final decision of the Department of
the Interior on each protest. Responses
to protest issues will be compiled and
formalized in a Director’s Protest
Resolution Report made available
following issuance of the decisions.
Upon resolution of all protests, the BLM
will issue a Record of Decision and
Approved RMP.
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.

On May 28, 2019, we published a

We are again soliciting comments on
the proposed ICR that is described
below. We are especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is the collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
NPS; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the NPS enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the NPS minimize the burden of
this collection on the respondents,
including through the use of
information technology.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before

Abstract: The National Underground
Railroad Network to Freedom Act of
1998 (54 U.S.C. 308301, et seq.)
authorizes the NPS to collect
information from applicants requesting
to join the Network to Freedom Program
(the Network). The NPS uses this
information to evaluate potential
participants and to coordinate the
preservation and education efforts
nationwide that integrate local historical
places, museums, and interpretive
programs associated with the
Underground Railroad into a mosaic of
community, regional, and national
stories.
All entities that apply to join the
Network must have a verifiable
association with the historic
Underground Railroad movement and
complete NPS Form 10–946, ‘‘National

Underground Railroad Network to
Freedom Application,’’ available on our
website at https://www.nps.gov/subjects/
ugrr/index.htm. Respondents must (1)
verify associations and characteristics
through descriptive texts that are the
result of historical research and (2)
submit supporting documentation; e.g.,
copies of rare documents, photographs,
and maps. The majority of the
information is submitted in electronic
format and used to determine eligibility
to become part of the Network.
Network to Freedom Program Partners
work with the NPS to help validate the
efforts of local and regional
organizations, making it easier for them
to share their expertise and
communicate with us and each other.
Prospective partners must submit a
letter with the following information:
• Name and address of the agency,
company or organization;
• Name, address, and phone, fax, and
email information of principal contact;
• Abstract not to exceed 200 words
describing the partner’s activity or
mission statement; and
• Brief description of the entity’s
association to the Underground
Railroad.
With this submission, we are
requesting one change on page 2 of form
10–946. The change is to clarify the
contact information to distinguish
between the owner/manager and the
person completing the application (if
they are different).

We are reporting 400 fewer burden
hours, due to a decrease in responses.
The burden hour per response remains
the same. Due to staffing shortages and
decreased activity in the program, the
resulting annualized cost for
administering the program are lower
than the last reporting period. When
vacant positions are filled, the number
of responses and costs are expected to
rise to previous levels.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
