60-Day Notice of Intention To Request Clearance of Collection of 
Information: Opportunity for Public Comment

AGENCY: National Park Service, The Department of the Interior.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
(Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C., Chapter 3507) and 5 CFR part 1320, 
Reporting and Record keeping Requirements, the National Park Service 
invites public comments on an extension of a currently approved 
collection (OMB<greek-i>1024-018). NPS specifically requests comments 
on: (1) The need for information including whether the information has 
practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the reporting burden estimate; 
(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of 
information collection on respondents, including the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
    The primary purpose if the ICR is to nominate properties for 
listing in the National Register of Historic Places, the official list 
of the Nation's cultural resources worthy of preservation, which public 
law requires that the Secretary of the Interior maintain and expand. 
Properties are listed in the National Register upon nomination by State 
Historic Preservation Officers and Federal Preservation Officers. Law 
also requires Federal agencies to request determinations of eligibility 
for property under their jurisdiction of affected by their programs and 
projects. The forms provide the historic documentation on which 
decisions for listing and eligibility are based.

DATES: Public comments will be accepted on or before sixty days from 
the date of publication in the Federal Register.

Register, National Park Service, 1849 ``C'' Street, NW., <greek-i>2280,
