Abstract: Pursuant to the Animal
Welfare Act (AWA), its Regulations
(AWAR), and the Interagency Research
Animal Committee (IRAC), any entity or
institution that uses vertebrate animals
for research, testing, or training
purposes must have an oversight
committee to evaluate all aspects of that
institution’s animal care and use. To be
in compliance, the NPS is responsible
for managing and maintaining an
Institutional Animal Care and Use
Committee (IACUC) that provides the
experience and expertise necessary to
assess and approve all research, testing,
or training activities involving
vertebrate animals on NPS managed
lands and territories. All research,
testing, or training projects involving
animals taking place on NPS territories
must be approved by the NPS IACUC
prior to their commencement.
Principal Investigators (PI) are
required to submit one of the following
forms for consideration by the
committee:

• IACUC General Submission (GS)
Form (NPS Form 10–1301)
• IACUC Amendment Form (NPS Form
10–1301A)
• IACUC Annual Review Form (NPS
Form 10–1302)
• IACUC Concurrence Form (NPS Form
10–1303)
• IACUC Field Study Form (NPS Form
10–1304)
As determined by the AWA, The NPS
Institutional Animal Care and Use
Committee (NPS IACUC), is a selfregulating entity that currently consists
of a Chair, NPS Regional members, and
two additional posts (a veterinarian to
serve as the ‘‘Attending Veterinarian’’
and another individual to serve as the
‘‘Unaffiliated Member At-Large’’).

Abstract: The Land and Water
Conservation Fund Act of 1965 (LWCF
Act) (54 U.S.C. 200305) was enacted to
help preserve, develop, and ensure
access for the public to outdoor
recreation opportunities. 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, the National Park Service (we, NPS)
administers the LWCF State Assistance
Program, which provides matching
grants to States and through the States
to local units of government. As used in
this information collection request, 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.
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. LWCF
grants are provided to States on a
matching basis for up to 50 percent of

PO 00000

the total project-related allowable costs.
Grants to eligible insular areas may be
for 100 percent assistance. 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 state-wide
recreation plan. Payments for all
projects are made to the State agency
that is authorized to accept and
administer funds paid for approved
projects. Local units of government
participate in the program as
subgrantees of the State with the State
retaining primary grant compliance
responsibility.
The following information is collected
to administer the LWCF State
Assistance Program:
Application. States may seek financial
assistance for acquisition, development,
or planning projects to be conducted
under the LWCF Act. To receive a grant,
States must submit an application to
NPS for review and approval. We use
the information provided in
applications to determine eligibility
under the authorizing legislation and to
select those projects that will provide
the highest return on the Federal
investment. Project proposals for LWCF
grants comprise the following:
• NPS Form 10–902 Project
Agreement. This form documents the
agreement between the NPS and the
State for accomplishing the project. It
binds the Federal Government and the
State to certain obligations through its
acceptance of Federal assistance,
including the rules and regulations
applicable to the conduct of a project
under the Act and any special terms and
conditions to the project established by
the NPS and agreed to by the State. It
obligates the United States to provide
grants up to a designated amount for
eligible costs; sets forth methods of
costing, accounting, incurrence of costs,
and similar matters. The form also
establishes the project performance
period and briefly describes the scope of
the project. (Note: we anticipate
discontinuing use of this form.)
• NPS Form 10–903 Description and
Notification Form (DNF). The State must
submit a DNF for each park or other
recreation area that will be assisted with
grant funds. This form provides data
about the assisted project site(s), such as
location, acreages and details about
improvements, as understood at the
beginning of each grant project.
• NPS Form 10–904 Proposal
Description (PD) and Environmental
Screening Form (ESF). The PD assists
the applicant in developing a narrative
that provides administrative and
