Proposed Information Collection; 

National Park Service Concessions 

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice; request for comments. 

SUMMARY: We (National Park Service, 

NPS) will ask the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) to approve the 

information collection (IC) described 

below. As required by the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 and as part of our 

continuing efforts to reduce paperwork 

and respondent burden, we invite the 

general public and other Federal 

agencies to take this opportunity to 

comment on this IC. This IC is 

scheduled to expire on November 30, 

2016. We may not conduct or sponsor 

and a person is not required to respond 

to a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

DATES: To ensure that we are able to 

consider your comments on this IC, we 

must receive them by May 26, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Send your comments on the 

IC to Madonna L. Baucum, Information 

Collection Clearance Officer, National 

Park Service, 1849 C Street, NW. (2601), 

Washington, DC 20240) (mail); or 

madonna_baucum@nps.gov (email). 

Please include ‘‘1024–0029’’ in the 

subject line of your comments. You can 

view the currently approved collection 

at www.reginfo.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To 

request additional information about 

this IC, contact Brian P. Borda, Chief, 

Commercial Services Program, National 

Park Service, 1201 I Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20005 (mail), (202) 

513–7156 (phone), or brian_borda@

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract. Private businesses under 

contract to the National Park Service 

manage food, lodging, tours, whitewater 

rafting, boating, and many other 

recreational activities and amenities in 

more than 100 national parks. These 

services gross more than $1 billion 

every year and provide jobs for more 

than 25,000 people during peak season. 

The regulations at 36 CFR part 51 

primarily implement Title IV of the 

National Parks Omnibus Management 

Act of 1998 (Pub. L. 105–391) which 

provides legislative authority, policies, 

and requirements for the solicitation, 

award, and administration of NPS 

concession contracts. Following are the 

information collection requirements 

associated with soliciting, awarding, 

and administering NPS concessions. 

(1) Proposals. 

(2) Amendments. 

(3) Appeals. 

(4) Request to Construct a Capital 

Improvement. 

(5) Construction Report. 

(6) Application to Sell or Transfer 

Concession Operation. 

(7) Annual Financial Statements. 

(8) Recordkeeping. 

The only revision we are proposing to 

the currently approved collection is the 

addition of a Schedule R to NPS Form 

10–356 and data collection fields to NPS 

Form 10–356a. Some concessioner 

contracts have an approved rate add-on 

to cover a portion of the cost of NPSprovided utilities when those utility 

costs are in excess of industry norms. 

Concessioners choose how to account 

for the approved rate add-on in their 

annual financial report on forms 10–356 

or 10–356A according to best industry 

accounting practices. However, the 

currently approved forms do not 

include any schedules or collection 

areas that show the amount of revenue 

collected in excess of approved rates or 

the cost of utilities provided by the 

National Park Service to the 

concessioner. This information is 

necessary to ensure that visitors are only 

charged the approved rate add-on 

amount and to ensure that we have a 

comprehensive view of the 

concessioner’s financial situation as it 

relates to the regulations at 36 CFR part 

51. The proposed forms will collect the 

approved add-on amount, the amount 

collected, and the actual costs of NPSprovided utilities.
