    Title: U.S. National Arboretum Use of the Grounds and Facilities as 
well as Commercial Photography and Cinematography.
    OMB Control Number: 0518-0024.
    Summary of Collection: Section 890(b) of the Federal Agriculture 
Improvement and Reform Act of 1996, Public Law 104-127 (``FAIR ACT'') 
provided statutory authorities regarding the United States National 
Arboretum (``USNA''). These authorities include the ability to charge 
fees for temporary use by individuals or groups of USNA facilities and 
grounds for any purpose consistent with the mission of the USNA. Also, 
the authority was provided to charge fees for the use of the USNA for 
commercial photography and cinematography. The mission of the U.S. 
National Arboretum (USNA) is to conduct research, provide education, 
and conserve and display trees, shrubs, flowers, and other plans to 
enhance the environment. The USNA is a 446-acre public facility. The 
grounds of the USNA are available to the public for purposes of 
education and passive recreation. The USNA has many spectacular feature 
and garden displays which are very popular to visitors and 
photographers.
    Need and Use of the Information: USNA officials will collect the 
information using applications in the form of questionnaires. The 
information gathered on the photography form is the applicant's name, 
name of the organization providing the service, phone/fax numbers, 
dates and times requested for photography, how many people will be 
working the project, how many vehicles involved, and an itemization of 
equipment to be used by the crew. Also, the application requests a 
detailed description of the project, which specific sites are requested 
for photography and how the images or pictures will be used.
    The collected information is used by USNA management to determine 
if a requestor's needs can be met, and the request is consistent with 
the mission and goals of the USNA uses of the information. If the basic 
information is not collected, USNA officials will not be able to 
determine if a requestor's needs are met.
