SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Native American Graves 

Protection and Repatriation Regulations, 

43 CFR Part 10. 

Bureau Form Number: None. 

OMB Control Number: 1024–0144. 

Current Expiration Date: August 31, 

2009. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently approved collection of 

information that was reinstated in 

February 2009 based on an emergency 

submission to OMB. 

Description of Need: The Native 

American Graves Protection and 

Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), requires 

museums to compile certain 

information (summaries, inventories, 

and notices) regarding Native American 

cultural items in their possession or 

control and provide that information to 

lineal descendants, culturally affiliated 

Indian tribes and Native Hawaiian 

organizations, and the National Park 

Service (acting on behalf of the 

Secretary of the Interior). 

Description of respondents: Museums, 

defined in NAGPRA as any institution 

that receives Federal funds and has 

possession of or control over Native 

American cultural items. 

Estimated average number of 

respondents: To date, 1,202 museums 

have completed summaries, inventories, 

or notices. NPS estimates about 50 new 

submissions or revision of previous 

submissions each year. 

Estimated average burden hours per 

response: Public reporting burden for 

this collection of information is 

expected to average 100 hours for the 

exchange of summary/inventory 

information between a museum or 

Federal agency and an Indian tribe or 

Native Hawaiian organization and six 

hours per response for the notification 

to the Secretary, including time for 

reviewing instructions, searching 

existing data sources, gathering and 

maintaining the data needed, and 

completing and reviewing the collected 

information. 

Frequency of Response: Information 

collection requirements are done on an 

as-needed basis, with summaries due 

within six months of either receipt of a 

new collection or acknowledgement of a 

new Indian tribe, and inventories due 

within two years of either receipt of a 

new collection or acknowledgement of a 

new Indian tribe. An institution 

receiving Federal funds for the first time 

must provide a summary within three 

years and an inventory within five 

years. 

Estimated total annual reporting 

burden: 5,224 hours. 

Comments are invited on: (1) the 

practical utility of the information being 

gathered; (2) the accuracy of the burden 

hour estimate; (3) ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (4) 

ways to minimize the burden hour to 

respondents, including use of 

automated information techniques or 

other forms of information technology.
