SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, we provide the general public and other Federal agencies 
with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and 
continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the impact 
of our information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand our information 
collection requirements and provide the requested data 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 
January 19, 2021 (86 FR 5247). No comments were received.
    As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent 
burdens, we are again soliciting comments from the public and other 
Federal agencies on the proposed ICR that is described below. We are 
especially interested in public comment addressing the following:
    (1) Whether or not the collection of information is necessary for 
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether or not 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.
    (4) How might the agency minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, including through 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 that you submit 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 cannot guarantee that we 
will be able to do so.
    Abstract: The NPS is authorized by 54 U.S.C. 100701 Protection, 
interpretation, and research in System to administer education programs 
for audiences including but not limited to school groups, scouting 
groups, extracurricular groups, and home school groups. To effectively 
manage requests received for NPS educational programs, the NPS 
Washington Support Office Division of Interpretation, Education, and 
Volunteers seeks approval for the use of a new Service-wide form, the 
Education Reservation Request Form.
    The proposed form would collect necessary reservation information, 
including: (1) Person(s) or organization(s) requesting education 
program services, (2) type of program requested, (3) logistical details 
including, date, time, grade level, number of students, (4) technology 
available to group for distance learning programming, and (5) criteria 
for academic fee waiver eligibility.
    This information will facilitate operational aspects of scheduling 
groups for in-park education programs, ranger in classroom programs, 
and/or online distance learning programs. The form will be fully 
electronic and available on participating parks websites for the 
purpose of making school group reservations and accommodating public 
requests for group education programming.
    Title of Collection: Education Reservation Request Form.
    OMB Control Number: 1024-NEW.
    Form Number: None.
    Type of Review: New.

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