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

AGENCY: Department of the Interior, National Park Service.

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. 3507) and 5 CFR 1320, Reporting and 
Recordkeeping Requirements, the National Park Service invite public 
comments on eight proposed information collection requests (ICR) for 
the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) and Urban Park and 
Recreation Recovery (UPARR) grant programs.
    1. LWCF Description and Notification (DNF) Form. The DNF is 
necessary to provide data input into the NPS Automated Project 
information system which provides timely data on projects funded over 
the life of the LWCF program.
    2. LWCF Program Performance Report. As required by OMB Circular A-
102, grantees must submit performance requirements which describe the 
status of the work required under the project scope.
    3. LWCF Project Agreement and Amendment Form. The Project Agreement 
and Amendment forms set forth the obligations assumed by the State 
through its acceptance of Federal assistance under the LWCF Act and any 
special terms and conditions.
    4. LWCF On-Site Inspection Report. The On-Site Inspection Reports 
are used to insure compliance by grantees with applicable Federal and 
program guidelines, and to insure the continued viability of the funded 
site.
    5. LWCF Conversion of Use Provisions. To convert assisted sites to 
other than public outdoor recreation, LWCF project sponsors must 
provide relevant information necessary to comply with Section 6(f)(3) 
of the LWCF Act of 1965.
    6. UPARR Project Performance Report. As required by OMB Circular A-
102, grant recipients must submit performance reports which describe 
the status of the work required under the project scope.
    7. UPARR Conversion of Use Provisions. To convert assisted sites to 
other than public recreation, UPARR project sponsors must provide 
relevant information necessary to comply with the section 1010 of the 
UPARR Act of 1978.
    8. UPARR Project Agreement and Amendment Form. The Project 
agreement and amendment forms set forth the obligations assumed by 
grant recipients through their acceptance of Federal Assistance under 
the UPARR Act and any special terms and conditions.
