AGENCY:
ACTION:

In compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, we
(National Park Service, NPS) have sent
five interrelated Information Collection
Requests (ICRs) to OMB for renewal
(OMB Control Numbers 1024–0031,
1024–0032, 1024–0033, 1024–0034, and
1024–0047). We summarize each ICR
below and describe the nature of the
collection and the estimated burden.
These ICRs are scheduled to expire on
August 31, 2010. We may not conduct
or sponsor and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. However, under OMB
regulations, we may continue to
conduct or sponsor these information
collections while they are pending at
OMB.
DATES: Submit comments on any or all
of these ICRs on or before September 23,
2010.
ADDRESSES: Send your comments and
suggestions on these ICRs to the Desk
Officer for the Department of the
Interior at OMB–OIRA at (202) 395–

copy of the ICR packages free of charge.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Land
and Water Conservation Fund Act of
1965 (LWCF Act) (16 U.S.C 4601–4 et
seq.) was enacted to help preserve,
develop, and ensure access to outdoor
recreation facilities. The LWCF Act
provides funds for and authorizes
Federal assistance to the States for
planning, acquisition, and development
of needed land and water areas and
facilities. In accordance with the LWCF
Act, we administer the LWCF State
Assistance Program, which provides
matching grants to States, and through
the States to local units of government.
As used in these ICRs, the term ‘‘States’’
includes the 50 States; the
Commonwealths of Puerto Rico and the
Northern Mariana Islands; the District of
Columbia; and the territories of Guam,
the U.S. Virgin Islands, and American
Samoa.
The LWCF State Assistance Program
gives maximum flexibility and
responsibility to the States. States
establish their own priorities and
criteria and award their grant money
through a competitive selection process
based on a Statewide recreation plan.
Local units of government participate in
the program as subgrantees of the State
with the State retaining primary grant
compliance responsibility.
We are seeking renewal of the
following information collections for
this program:

FR 19419) with public comment period
open through June 14, 2010. We did not
receive any comments.
• OMB Control No. 1024–0034—
notice published on March 15, 2010 (75
FR 12253) with public comment period
open through May 14, 2010. We
received one comment. The commenter
expressed concern that the report is
negligent in design and does not protect
taxpayers’ money and that the program
is a waste of money that accomplishes
nothing for the good of the American
people.
Response: On-site inspection reports
are one of the methods we use to
determine a project’s eligibility to
receive LWCF assistance, to monitor the
performance of grantees, and to ensure
compliance with all requirements and
regulations. There is no standard report
format. The State develops the on-site
inspection report considering issues
applicable to the specific project. An
agreement negotiated between the NPS
and the State covers the scope, timing,
and selectivity of the inspections. If we
discover that grant funds are being used
improperly or the terms of the grant
agreement are not being followed, we
can withhold the State’s LWCF funding.
In addition, if anyone believes that a
State’s report may be incorrect or
flawed, he or she should contact the
appropriate NPS Regional Office.
Under the Land and Water
Conservation Fund grants program, we
have approved over 40,000 projects to
support acquisition of open space for
park lands or the development of
outdoor recreation facilities in every
geographic region of the United States,
in every county, and in almost all
localities. Seventy-five percent of the
total funds obligated have gone to
locally sponsored projects to provide
close-to-home recreation opportunities
that are readily accessible to America’s
youth, adults, senior citizens, and the
physically or mentally challenged. In
addition to thousands of small
recreation areas, grants have helped to
acquire and develop new parks of
Statewide or national significance.
• OMB Control No. 1024–0047—
notice published on April 19, 2010 (75
FR 20374) with public comment period

VerDate Mar<15>2010

15:00 Aug 23, 2010

Jkt 220001

open through June 18, 2010. We
received one comment. The commenter
stated that the public should have an
opportunity to comment on a State’s
request to convert LWCF-assisted land
to other than public outdoor
recreational use.
Response: While there is no
requirement for a State to seek public
comment on a conversion of use
request, the regulations at 36 CFR part
59 do require that such requests be in
accord with the Statewide
Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation
Plan (SCORP). Before receiving LWCF
grants, States must develop a SCORP
and revise it at least every 5 years. The
Land and Water Conservation Fund Act
of 1965 requires that States provide
ample opportunity for public
participation during SCORP
development and revision. The
Governor of the State must certify that
this opportunity has been afforded, and
the State must send the results of public
meetings and a summary of the public
comments to NPS with the SCORP.
We again invite comments on: (1) The
practical utility of the information being
gathered; (2) the accuracy of the burden
hour estimate; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden to
respondents, including the use of
automated information collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology. Before including your
address, phone number, e-mail, 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.
