Forest Service 

Title: Visitor Permit and Visitor 

Registration Card. 

OMB Control Number: 0596–0019. 

Summary of Collection: The Organic 

Administration Act (30 stat.11), the 

Wilderness Act (78 stat.890), the Wild 

and Scenic River Act (82 stat. 906) and 

Executive Order 11644, all authorize the 

Forest Service (FS) to manage the forests 

to benefit both land and people. The 

information collected from the Visitor’s 

Permit Form (FS–2300–30) and Visitor 

Registration Card (FS–2300–32) help the 

Forest Service ensure that visitors’ use 

of National Forest System lands is in the 

public interest and compatible with the 

mission of the agency. The information 

is collected from National Forest System 

land visitors, who will be asked to 

describe their intended use of the land 

and the estimated duration of their visit. 

Need and Use of the Information: FS 

will collect the visitor’s name, address, 

area to be visited, date of visit, length 

of stay, method of travel, number of 

people, and number of pack and saddle 

stock. The permit and registration card 

allows managers to identify heavily 

used areas to prepare restoration and 

monitoring plans that reflect where use 

is occurring, and in extreme cases, to 

develop plans to move forest users to 

lesser-impacted areas. The completed 

forms also provide managers with 

information useful in locating lost forest 

visitors. Not being able to use these 

forms could result in overuse and site 

deterioration in environmentally 

sensitive areas. 

Description of Respondents: 

Individuals or households; business or 

other for-profit; not-for profit 

institutions. 

Number of Respondents: 460,000. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

Other (per visit). 

Total Burden Hours: 23,000. 

Forest Service 

Title: Youth Conservation Corps 

Application & Medical History Forms. 

OMB Control Number: 0596–0084. 

Summary of Collection: Under Public 

Law 93–408, the Youth Conservation 

Corps Act (YCC), the Forest Service 

(U.S. Department of Agriculture), and 

agencies within the Department of the 

Interior (the Fish and Wildlife Service, 

National Park Service, and Bureau of 

Land Management) cooperate to provide 

seasonal employment for eligible youth 

15 to 18 years old. 

Need and Use of the Information: 

Youth, ages 15–18, who seek training 

and employment with participating 

agencies through the YCC must 

complete an application form (FS– 

1800–18) and once selected for 

employment must complete a medical 

history form (FS–1800–3). The 

applicant’s parents or guardian must 

sign both forms. The application form is 

used in the random selection process 

and the medical history form provides 

information needed to determine 

certification of suitability, any special 

medical or medication needs, and a file 

record for the Federal Government and 

participants. If these forms were not 

used, the Federal government’s ability 

to oversee the Youth Conservation 

Corps program would be greatly 

impaired. The organizational and 

liability issues that would result from 

inability to collect the information 

needed to manage the program would be 

virtually insurmountable. 

Description of Respondents: 

Individuals or households. 

Number of Respondents: 20,000. 

Frequency of Responses: Annually. 

Total Burden Hours: 2,267.
