# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Secretary of the Interior has statutory authority to acquire lands in trust status for individual Indians and Federally recognized Indian tribes. The Secretary requests information in order to identify the party(ies) involved and describe the land in question. Respondents are Native American tribes or individuals who request real property acquisition for trust status. The Secretary also requests additional information necessary to satisfy those pertinent factors listed in 25 CFR 151.10 or 151.11. The information is used to determine whether or not the Secretary will approve an applicant request. No specific form is used, but respondents supply information and data so that the Secretary may make an evaluation and determination in accordance with established Federal factors, rules and policies.

You are asked to comment on whether it is necessary for the proper performance of agency functions; it reduces burden on small entities; it uses plain, coherent, and unambiguous terminology that is understandable to respondents; its implementation will be consistent and compatible with current reporting and recordkeeping practices; why the information is being collected and how it will be used.

If you wish us to withhold this information, you must state this prominently at the beginning of your comment. We will honor your request to the extent allowable by law. In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, as amended, the collection has been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget and assigned a number and expiration date.

Please note that an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless there is a valid OMB clearance number.
