Title: Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) - 7 cfr part 1410
Type of Information Collection: Extension without change of a currently approved collection	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 03/23/2001
	Date Received in OIRA: 03/29/2000
Terms of Clearance: In accordance with 5 CFR 1320, the information collection is approved. However, the agency must provide to OMB a plan for providing a fully electronic option for meeting CRP program requirements. This plan must consider the information collection as a whole, rather than the feasibility of providing individual forms in an electronic format. The agency is also instructed to revise their calculation of burdens associated with information collections to account for the burden associated with different instruments. Specifically, the increased use of CRP817U must result in a reduction in the use of an alternative instrument. In the absence of evidence of such a reduction, the the agency's information collection activities are duplicative, overly burdensome, and inconsistent with 5 CFR 1320.
