especially interested in public comment
addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of

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

track performance metrics needed to
distribute funds and report on heritage
area management and budgetary
activities as directed by Congress.
NHAs combine conservation,
