Applicants for federal indemnity under
the Arts and Artifacts Indemnity Act (P.L. 94-158) are required to
submit indemnity applications. Respondents include non-profit,
tax-exempt organizations (primarily museums).
The number of respondents has
been fewer than originally estimated, which reduces the total time
burden. The total cost burden has been halved because the staff
divides time between the domestic and international indemnity
programs. (The international program has a separate ICR.)
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
