Expiration Date of Approval: April 30,

Description of Need: The regulations 

at 36 CFR Part 51 primarily implement 

Title IV of the National Parks Omnibus 

Management Act of 1998 (Pub. L. 105–

391 or the Act), which requires that the 

Secretary of the Interior exercise 

authority in a manner consistent with a 

reasonable opportunity for a 

concessioner to realize a profit on his 

operation as a whole commensurate 

with the capital invested and the 

obligations assumed. It also requires 

that franchise fees be determined with 

consideration to the opportunity for net 

profit in relation to both gross receipts 

and capital invested. The financial 

information being colleted is necessary 

to provide insight into and knowledge 

of the concessioner’s operation so that 

this authority can be exercised and 

franchise fees determined in a timely 

manner and without an undue burden 

on the concessioner. This program will 

measure performance in meeting goals 

as required by the 1995 Government 

Performance and Results Act. 

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 to 

respondents, including use of 

automated information collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology. Before including your 

address, phone number, e-mail 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.
