taxation would impede Tribal economic
growth).
Similar to BIA’s surface leasing
regulations, Tribal regulations under the
HEARTH Act pervasively cover all
aspects of leasing. See 25 U.S.C.
415(h)(3)(B)(i) (requiring Tribal
regulations be consistent with BIA
surface leasing regulations).
Furthermore, the Federal government
remains involved in the Tribal land
leasing process by approving the Tribal
leasing regulations in the first instance
and providing technical assistance,
upon request by a Tribe, for the
development of an environmental
review process. The Secretary also
retains authority to take any necessary
actions to remedy violations of a lease
or of the Tribal regulations, including
terminating the lease or rescinding
approval of the Tribal regulations and
reassuming lease approval
responsibilities. Moreover, the Secretary
continues to review, approve, and
monitor individual Indian land leases
and other types of leases not covered
under the Tribal regulations according
to 25 CFR part 162.
Accordingly, the Federal and Tribal
interests weigh heavily in favor of
preemption of State and local taxes on
lease-related activities and interests,
regardless of whether the lease is
governed by Tribal leasing regulations
or 25 CFR part 162. Improvements,
activities, and leasehold or possessory
interests may be subject to taxation by
the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation,
California.

Assistant Secretary—Indian Affairs.

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 March
14, 2024 (89 FR 18665). 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

(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: Various laws, statutes, and
regulations, to include the Volunteers in
the Parks Act of 1969 (54 U.S.C.
102301), Public Lands Corps Act (16
U.S.C. 1721 et. seq.), the Outdoor
Recreation Authority (16 U.S.C. 4601),
Volunteers in the National Forests
Program (16 U.S.C. 558 a–d), and the
Forest Foundation Volunteers Act (16
U.S.C. 583j), authorize Federal land
management agencies to work with
volunteers, youth, and partner
organizations to plan, develop,
maintain, and manage projects and
service activities on public lands and
adjacent projects throughout the nation.
We use volunteers, youth programs, and
partnerships to aid in disaster response,
interpretive functions, visitor services,
conservation measures and
development, research and
development, recreation, and or other
activities as allowed by an agency’s
policy and regulations. Providing,
collecting, and exchanging written and
electronic information is required from
potential and selected program
participants of all ages so they can
access opportunities and benefits
provided by agencies guidelines. Those
under the age of 18 years must have
written consent from a parent or
guardian to participate in volunteer
activities.

These forms, available for prospective
volunteers to complete electronically or
as paper forms, serve two functions:
Recruiting potential volunteers, and
Formalizing agreements between
current volunteers and the agencies
with which they are volunteering.
The customer relationship
management web-based portal,
Volunteer.gov, is the agencies’ response
to meeting the public’s request for
improved digital customer services to
access and apply for engagement
opportunities. Under one security
platform parameter, the Volunteer.gov
website provides prospective and
current program participants the ability
to establish an account for electronic
submission of program applications and
to obtain status of applications and
enrollments. Current functionality
provides information digitally on
benefits and requirements and facilitates
improved tracking of volunteer service
hours. As field level programs transition
to using Volunteer.gov, these data points
may be tracked either manually or
digitally and are accessible from agency
volunteer program coordinators.
This information collection
specifically minimizes the burden on
the respondents. While electronic
records provide a means to streamline
data collection and allow participant
access to track benefits and control the
sharing of their data, the participating
agencies will continue to provide
accessible paper versions of the
volunteer forms upon request and in
special circumstances where the digital
alternative is not possible.
Participating Agencies
Department of the Interior: All
Interior offices and units, including
National Park Service, U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land
Management, Bureau of Reclamation,

Survey.
Department of Agriculture: U.S.
Forest Service and Natural Resources
Conservation Service.
Department of Defense: U.S. Army
