    Abstract: The America the Beautiful--the National Parks and Federal 
Recreational Lands Access Pass and Senior Passes are free, lifetime 
Passes issued by the Bureau of Land Management, the Bureau of 
Reclamation, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Forest 
Service, and the National Park Service. The Interagency Access Pass is 
available to citizens or persons domiciled in the United States, 
regardless of age, who have a medical determination and documentation 
of permanent disability. The Interagency Senior Pass is available to 
citizens or persons domiciled in the United States who are 62 years of 
age or older.
    In the past, the processes to obtain these Passes required in-
person application. The proposed revision to current policy creates 
processes for applicants to obtain either Pass through the mail. 
Standard Operating Procedures have been updated to reflect the change 
to allow applicants to submit applications by mail along with photo 
copies of identification verifying U.S. residency or citizenship and 
documentation of disability for the Interagency Access Pass or U.S. 
residency or citizenship, and age for the Interagency Senior Pass. The 
process for obtaining an Interagency Access or Senior Pass in person is 
not changing.
    Comments: On June 9, 2010, we published in the Federal Register (75 
FR 32810-32811) a notice of our intent to request that OMB renew this 
information collection. In that notice, we solicited comments for 60 
days, ending on August 9, 2010. We did not receive any comments in 
response to that notice.
    We again invite comments concerning this information collection on:
    <bullet> Whether or not the collection of information is necessary, 
including whether or not the information will have practical utility;
    <bullet> The accuracy of our estimate of the burden for this 
collection of information;
    <bullet> Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
    <bullet> Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents.
    Comments you submit in response to this notice are a matter of 
public record. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail 
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 OMB in your comment to withhold your personal 
identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee it will 
be done.

    Dated: November 5, 2010.

NPS, Information Collection Clearance Officer.
