    Title: Gravesite Reservation Survey (2 Year), VA Form 40-40.

    Abstract: VA Form Letter 40-40 is sent biennially to individuals

cancel a gravesite set-aside. The survey is conducted to assure 
gravesite set-asides do not go unused.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households, Business or other for 
profit.

    Dated: September 24, 2010.

    By direction of the Secretary.
