# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    In accordance with the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501*et seq.*) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we invite the public and other Federal agencies to comment on new, proposed, revised, and continuing collections of information. This helps the BLM assess the impacts of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's reporting burden. It also helps the public understand BLM information collection requirements and ensure requested data are provided in the desired format.                

                    A                     **Federal Register**                     notice with a 60-day public comment period soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on July 15, 2024 (89 FR 57429).                

As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burdens, we are again inviting the public and other Federal agencies to comment on the proposed ICR described below. The BLM is especially interested in public comment addressing the following:

(1) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility.

(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the burden for this collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used.

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and

                    (4) How the agency could minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology,                     *e.g.,*                     permitting electronic submission of response.                

                    Comments submitted in response to this notice are a matter of public record. Before including your address, phone number, email address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we                           ( print page 102940)                        cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

OMB Control Number 1004-0012 is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2025. This request is for OMB to renew this OMB Control Number for an additional three (3) years.                

*Title of Collection:*                     Application for Land for Recreation or Public Purposes (43 CFR 2740 and 2912).

*Total Estimated Annual Non-hour Burden Cost:*                     $2,300.                

An agency may not conduct or sponsor and, notwithstanding any other provision of law, a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

                    The authority for this action is the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501*et seq.*).
