The annual burden hours of 11,450 are program changes due to the new statute (JOM Modernization Act), which require regulatory updates with information collection requirements. This information collection was previously approved under the former regulations, but was then discontinued because of a lack of program funding to fully implement the program. With the passage of the new statute (JOM Modernization Act), BIE is updating its regulations and is requesting approval for the information collection requirements included in those regulations.
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;
