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 the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
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 the agency might minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, including 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: The BLM is required to manage commercial, competitive and 
organized group recreational uses of the public lands, and individual 
use of special areas. The BLM must assess, evaluate and authorize 
(permit) activities proposed to be conducted on public land. The 
estimated annual burden is estimated to increase by 308 hours (from 
5,292 to 5,600). This increase in burden hours results from increasing 
the number of estimated annual responses from 1,323 to 1,400. The 
increase in the number of responses is a result of increase demand for 
recreation permits. This OMB Control Number is currently scheduled to 
expire on April 30, 2023. The BLM plans to request that OMB renew this 
OMB Control Number for an additional three years.
    Title of Collection: Permits for Recreation on Public Lands (43 CFR 
part 2930).
    OMB Control Number: 1004-0119.
    Form Numbers: 2930-001--Special Recreation Application.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.

    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 5,600.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain a benefit.
    Frequency of Collection: On occasion.
    Total Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: None.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor and, notwithstanding any other 
provision of law, a person is not required to respond to a collection 
of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
    The authority for this action is the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
