Notice of Submission of Study

Package to Office of Management and

Budget; Opportunity for Public

Comment

AGENCY: Department of the Interior;

National Park Service; and Mount

Rushmore National Memorial.

ACTION: Notice and request for

comments.

ABSTRACT: The National Park Service

(NPS) Visitor Service Project and Mount

Rushmore National Memorial propose

to conduct visitor surveys to learn about

visitor demographics and visitor

opinions about services and facilities in

Mount Rushmore National Memorial.

The results of the surveys will be used

by park managers to improve the service

they provide to visitors while better

protecting park natural and cultural

resources. A study package that

includes the proposed survey

questionnaire for the proposed Mount

Rushmore National Memorial study has

been submitted to the Office of

Management and Budget for review.

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and 5

CFR part 1320, Reporting and Record

Keeping Requirements, the NPS invites

public comment on the proposed

information collection request (ICR).

Comments are invited on: (1) The need

for the information including whether

the information has practical utility; (2)

the accuracy of the reporting burden

estimate; (3) ways to enhance the

quality, utility, and clarity of the

information to be collected; and (4)

ways to minimize the burden of the

information collection on respondents,

including the use of automated

collection techniques or other forms of

information technology. The purpose of

the proposed ICR is to document the

demographics of visitors to Mount

Rushmore National Memorial, to learn

about the motivations and expectations

these visitors have for their park visit,

and to obtain their opinions regarding

services provided by the park and the

suitability of the visitor facilities

maintained in the park. This

information will be used by park

planners and managers to plan, develop,

and operate visitor services and

facilities in ways that maximize use of

limited park financial and personnel

resources to meet the expectations and

desires of park visitors.

There were no public comments

received as a result of publishing in the

Federal Register a 60 day notice of

intention to request clearance of

information collection for this survey.
