SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we
provide the general public and other
Federal agencies with an opportunity to
comment on new, proposed, revised,
and continuing collections of
information. This helps us assess the
impact of our information collection
requirements and minimize the public’s
reporting burden. It also helps the
public understand our information
collection requirements and provide the
requested data in the desired format.
A Federal Register notice with a 60day public comment period soliciting
comments on this collection of
information was published on June 6,
2023 (88 FR 37093). No comments were
received.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we are again soliciting
comments from the public and other
Federal agencies on the proposed ICR
that is described below. We are
especially interested in public comment
addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility.
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used.
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected.
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your
address, phone number, email address,
or other personal identifying
information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire
comment—including your personal
identifying information—may be made
publicly available at any time. While
you can ask us in your comment to
withhold your personal identifying

information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Abstract: This collection is authorized
by Section 101(b) of the National
Historic Preservation Act, as amended
(54 U.S.C. 302301), which specifies the
role of States, Tribes, and local
governments in the Historic
Preservation Program (HPP). This
information collection has an impact on
State, Tribal, and local governments that
wish to participate formally with the
National Park Service in the HPP.
Information is also requested to meet
grant management and monitoring
responsibilities for States, Tribes, local
government, and other eligible grant
recipients under 54 U.S.C. 300101 et
seq. and 2 CFR 200.
Each year Congress directs the NPS to
use part of the annual appropriation
from the Historic Preservation Fund
(HPF) for the State grant program and
the Tribal grant programs to assist States
and Tribes in carrying out their
statutory role in the HPP. Through
competitive grant programs, Congress
also directs NPS to provide financial
assistance to a variety of eligible grant
recipients to support the broad cultural
resource mandates of the National
Historic Preservation Act and for other
purposes.
We use these information collections
to manage our statutory partnerships
and for managing grants (usually to
those same partners). We are requesting
to update the name of this collection
from ‘‘Procedures for State, Tribal, and
Local Government Historic Preservation
Programs’’ to ‘‘Procedures for State,
Tribal, and Local Government Historic
Preservation Programs & Management
of Historic Preservation Fund Grants.’’
This change is to clarify our roles in
managing our statutory partnerships and
competitive (project) grants and formula
grants.
The information from this collection
is required to determine if State, Tribal,
and local governments meet minimum
standards and requirements for
participation in the HPP and to meet
program-specific requirements as well
as government-wide requirements for
Federal grant programs. We propose to
discontinue the HPF Online Closeout/
EOY (State Sources of Non-federal
Matching Share Report). The extra
reporting effort is redundant and is not
useful in evaluating grantee
performance or compliance.
The NPS uses the information
collected to ensure compliance with the
National Historic Preservation Act, as
well as government-wide grant
requirements issued and implemented
through 43 CFR 12 and 2 CFR 200.
