## I. Abstract

The BIA is seeking renewal of the approval for the information collection conducted under 25 CFR part 166, related to grazing on trust or restricted land. Approval for this collection expires April 30, 2010. This information collection allows BIA to receive the information necessary to determine whether an applicant to obtain, modify, or assign a grazing permit on trust or restricted lands is eligible and complies with all applicable grazing requirements. Some of this information is collected on forms that may be revised as part of this renewal process. No third party notification or public disclosure burden is associated with this collection.
