Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 32 / Thursday, February 16, 2012 / Notices

Estimated Total Annual Hourly
Burden to Respondents: 211 hours (422
responses × 0.5 hour per response).
Title: Facility License Standards.
OMB Control Number: 3141–0012.
Background: IGRA states that ‘‘a
separate license issued by the Indian
tribe shall be required for each place,
facility, or location on Indian lands at
which class II [and class III] gaming is
conducted.’’ 25 U.S.C. 2710(b)(1) and
(d)(1)(A)(iii). Further, IGRA requires
‘‘the construction and maintenance of
the gaming facilities, and the operation
of that gaming is conducted in a manner
which adequately protects the
environment and public health and
safety.’’ 25 U.S.C. 2710(b)(2)(E).
NIGC regulations, part 559 requires
that a tribe submit a notice to the NIGC
that it is considering issuing a facility
license, including applicable Indian
lands information, at least 120 days
before a new class II and/or class III
gaming facility is opened. The amount
of Indian lands information depends, in
part, on whether the Bureau of Indian
Affairs maintains the necessary records.
The Indian lands information will
continue to be utilized by the NIGC to
ensure that its records are complete for
internal purposes, such as assessing the
NIGC’s jurisdiction to regulate the
gaming on the parcel, as well as
responding to inquiries from
government agencies and Congress as to
the statuses of lands where Indian
gaming is proposed or occurring.
Part 559 also requires that tribes
submit copies of each newly issued or
renewed facility license to the NIGC
within 30 days of issuance, as well as
notices of facility closures. This
information will enable the NIGC to
maintain accurate, up-to-date records of
the Indian gaming facilities that are
operating on Indian lands in the United
States at any given point in time.
Currently, facility licenses must be
renewed every three years. With each
new facility license, the Tribe must
submit an attestation that it has
identified and enforces environment
and public health and safety laws and
that the tribe is in compliance with
those laws. Part 559 also requires tribes
to submit a document listing all
environmental and public safety laws,
resolutions, codes, policies and
standards applicable to its gaming
facility. If the submitted laws,
resolutions, etc. do not change, the tribe
need only certify that fact when
submitting a renewed facility license.
Finally, the NIGC Chair has the
discretion to request environmental and
public health and safety documentation
on occasions when there is an
identified, substantial concern. Through

these submissions, the NIGC can ensure
that the tribes have determined that the
construction, maintenance, and
operation of their gaming facilities are
conducted in a manner that adequately
protects the environment and the public
health and safety.
This information collection serves
two purposes: (i) to receive up-to-date
information from tribes regarding the
number of licensed Indian gaming
facilities and the Indian lands status of
the site of each gaming facility; and (ii)
to obtain certifications from the tribes
that the construction, maintenance, and
operation of the gaming facilities are
conducted in a manner that adequately
protects the environment and the public
health and safety.
Brief Description of Collection: This
collection is mandatory and enables the
NIGC to conduct its statutory duty to
regulate Indian gaming by ensuring that
tribal gaming facilities are properly
licensed by the tribes.
Respondents: Indian tribal gaming
operations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
565.
Estimated Annual Responses: 75.
Estimated Time per Response: The
range of time can vary from 2 burden
hours to 10 burden hours for one item.
Frequency of Response: Varies.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: $13,125.
Dated: February 13, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), this notice announces that the
Bureau of Reclamation is requesting
approval for the collection of data from
well and river-pump owners and
operators along the lower Colorado
River in Arizona, California, and
Nevada.
Title: Lower Colorado River Well
Inventory.
OMB Control Number: 1006–0014.
Abstract: Pursuant to the Boulder
Canyon Project Act (Pub. L. 70–642, 45
Stat. 1057), all diversions of mainstream
Colorado River water must be in
accordance with a Colorado River water
entitlement. The Consolidated Decree of
the United States Supreme Court in
Arizona v. California, 547 U.S. 150
(2006) requires the Secretary of the
Interior to account for all diversions of
mainstream Colorado River water along
the lower Colorado River, including
water drawn from the mainstream by
underground pumping. To meet the
water entitlement and accounting
obligations, an inventory of wells and
river pumps is required along the lower
Colorado River, and the gathering of
specific information concerning these
wells.
Description of respondents: The
respondents will include well and riverpump owners and operators along the
lower Colorado River in Arizona,
California, and Nevada. Each diverter
(including well pumpers) must be
identified and their diversion locations
and water use determined.
Frequency: These data are collected
only once for each well or river-pump
owner or operator as long as changes in
water use, or other changes that would
impact contractual or administrative
requirements, are not made. A
respondent may request that the data for
its well or river pump be updated after
the initial inventory.
Estimated completion time: An
average of 20 minutes is required to
interview individual well and riverpump owners or operators. Reclamation
will use the information collected
during these interviews to complete the
information collection form.
Estimated Total Number of
Respondents: 1,500.
