Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 207 / Friday, October 26, 2007 / Notices

OMB Control Number: 1028–0056.
Form Number: Web-based collection
form; no form number.
Abstract: Respondents to this form
voluntarily supply the U.S. Geological
Survey, National Biological Information
Infrastructure Program with data and
information regarding observations of
malformed amphibians. Once the
information is peer-reviewed by a
professional herpetologist, this
information will be published online in
the North American Reporting Center
for Amphibian Malformations database
for use by Government agencies, natural
resources managers, researchers,
education programs, and the general
public.
We will protect information
considered proprietary under the
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.
552) and its implementing regulations
(43 CFR part 2), and under regulations
at 30 CFR 250.197, ‘‘Data and
information to be made available to the
public or for limited inspection.’’
Responses are voluntary. No questions
of a ‘‘sensitive’’ nature are asked. We
intend to release data collected on the
NARCAM online form only in a format
that is not reporter-specific; no
information that would identify an
individual reporter will be released to
the public.
Frequency: Voluntary submissions.
Most reporters submit one-time
observational reports; however, a small
percentage submits multiple reports as
malformations are observed.
Estimated Number and Description of
Respondents: Approximately 150 public
citizens, natural resources managers,
land managers, and biologists annually.
Estimated Number of Responses:
Historical average of 300 annually;
many respondents, particularly
researchers and resource managers,
submit more than one response
annually.
Annual burden hours: 150.
Estimated Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Hour’’ Burden: The
currently approved ‘‘hour’’ burden is
150 hours. We estimate the public
reporting burden averages 30 minutes
per response. This includes the time for
reviewing instructions, gathering and
maintaining data, and completing and
reviewing the information.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Non-Hour Cost’’
Burden: We have not identified any
‘‘non-hour cost’’ burdens associated
with this collection of information.
Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an
agency may not conduct a sponsor, and
you are not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid OMB control
number. Until OMB approves a
collection of information, you are not
obligated to respond.
Comments: Before submitting an ICR
to OMB, PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A) (44
U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) requires each
agency ‘‘* * * to provide notice * * *
and otherwise consult with members of
the public and affected agencies
concerning each proposed collection of
information * * *’’ Agencies must
specifically solicit comments to: (a)
Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the agency to perform its duties,
including whether the information is
useful; (b) evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimated of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
enhance the quality, usefulness, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) minimize the burden
on the respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
To comply with the public
consultation process, on August 22,
2007, we published a Federal Register
notice (72 FR pp. 47065–47066)
announcing that we would submit this
ICR to OMB for approval. The notice
provided the required 60-day public
comment period. We have received no
comments in response to the notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
planning area is located in Southwest
Colorado in Dolores and Montezuma
counties. The plan will provide a
framework to guide subsequent
management decisions on
approximately 164,000 acres managed
by the BLM. Within the Monument
boundary, there are approximately 400
acres of National Park Service lands
(Hovenweep National Monument) and
18,000 acres of private inholdings. The
Canyons of the Ancients National
Monument is currently being managing
under the BLM 1985 San Juan/San
Miguel RMP and the Interim Guidance
provided after the Monument was
established.
• San Juan/San Miguel Resource
Management Plan.
The current RMP was approved in
1985 and has been amended five times.
The Wilderness Study Areas (WSA)
within the Monument are being
managed under interim guidance
provided by the Interim Management
Policy and Guidance for Lands under
Wilderness Review until such time that
Congress makes a final wilderness
decision. The DRMP/DEIS discusses
how those lands would be managed if
Congress released them from wilderness
study.
The Canyons of the Ancients National
Monument has worked extensively with
the community, interested and affected
publics, Native American tribes, and
cooperating agencies in the
development of the DRMP/DEIS. The
Monument has conducted a broad
community-based public input process.
Cooperating agencies include The
Colorado State Historical Society and
the United States Fish and Wildlife
Service. Five alternatives are analyzed
in the DRMP/DEIS.
• Alternative I: This is the No Action
Alternative. This alternative is
comprised of current management
actions and goals and assumes existing
or approved land uses would continue.
