Jkt 250001
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
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
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.
Abstract: This information collection
is required under the Reclamation
Reform Act of 1982 (RRA), Acreage
Limitation Rules and Regulations, 43
CFR part 426, and Information
Requirements for Certain Farm
Operations In Excess of 960 Acres and
the Eligibility of Certain Formerly
Excess Land, 43 CFR part 428. This
information collection requires certain
landholders (direct or indirect
landowners or lessees) and farm
operators to complete forms

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

demonstrating their compliance with
the acreage limitation provisions of
Federal reclamation law. The forms in
this information collection are
submitted to districts that use the
information to establish each
landholder’s status with respect to
landownership limitations, full-cost
pricing thresholds, lease requirements,
and other provisions of Federal
reclamation law. In addition, forms are
submitted by certain farm operators to
provide information concerning the
services they provide and the nature of
their farm operating arrangements. All
landholders whose entire westwide
landholdings total 40 acres or less are
exempt from the requirement to submit
RRA forms. Landholders who are
‘‘qualified recipients’’ have RRA forms
submittal thresholds of 80 acres or 240
acres depending on the district’s RRA
forms submittal threshold category
where the land is held. Only farm
operators who provide multiple services
to more than 960 acres held in trusts or
by legal entities are required to submit
forms.

Abstract.
Identification of limited recipients—
Some entities that receive Reclamation
irrigation water may believe that they
are under the Reclamation Reform Act
of 1982 (RRA) forms submittal threshold
and, consequently, may not submit the
appropriate RRA form(s). However,
some of these entities may in fact have
a different RRA forms submittal
threshold than what they believe it to be
due to the number of natural persons
benefiting from each entity and the
location of the land held by each entity.
In addition, some entities that are
exempt from the requirement to submit
RRA forms due to the size of their
landholdings (directly and indirectly
owned and leased land) may in fact be
receiving Reclamation irrigation water
for which the full-cost rate must be paid
because the start of Reclamation
