In accordance
with 5 CFR 1320, the information collection is approved until
January 2020 to allow DOI enough time to either promulgate a new
regulation that fulfills the previous terms of clearance or for DOI
to fulfill the previous terms of clearance separate from a
rule-making. The previous terms of clearance still stand, which
are: The Bureau of Indian Affairs must enable the electronic
reporting of monthly reports under 226.26 and 226.27(a) (which both
now fall within 226.13(b)) within one year of the approval date of
this information collection request.

Statute at
Large: 34
Stat. 543 Name of Statute: Act for division of lands and funds
of Osage Indians in Oklahoma territory, and for other purposes.
On May 11, 2015, BIA published
a final rule to amend the regulations at 25 CFR 226. As part of
this final rule, new information collections were approved for use
by OMB. Due to litigation, the 2015 final rule never went into
effect. Accordingly, the information collections that were approved
by OMB in the 2015 final rule were never implemented. However, on
June 17, 2016, the BIA issued a direct final rule amending the CFR
to reinstate the version of the rule that was in effect prior to
the 2015 final rule. BIA is now seeking OMB approval for
information collections that are part of the current regulations at
25 CFR 226. Seventeen of these information collections were not
previously approved by OMB and have been in use without OMB
approval. Seven of the information collections were approved by OMB
under the 2015 regulations, but subsequently have been collected on
instruments that were not previously approved for use. These seven
instruments have been in use without OMB approval.
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.
