A federal agency not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## I. Abstract

                    The State of Alaska is proposing to create an industrial mining road through the Preserve section of Gates of the                           ( print page 63940)                        Arctic National Park and Preserve. The National Park Service, in collaboration with the University of Alaska, is interested in understanding how the proposed road may economically impact area village residents (i.e., Bettles, Evansville, Wiseman, Allakakeet, Kobuk, Shungnak, and Ambler). A survey will be used to collect information concerning: (1) Current economic characteristics, (2) levels of subsistence harvest, and (3) opinions on impacts from the proposed road. This collection proposes to provide data that will be used to develop a legally-required Environmental and Economic Analysis. Up-to-date and relevant information is needed concerning the estimation of economic impact from the proposed road.
