In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice announces the intention of the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) to request revision and extension of a currently approved information collection, the Agricultural Resources Management Survey (ARMS), phases 1 and 2 as well as Chemical Use Surveys.

A revision to burden hours will be needed due to this separation as well as changes in the size of the target population, sampling design, and/ or questionnaire length.
