DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
National Park Service


Extension of Time Requested for Decision From OMB

AGENCY: Department of the Interior, National Park Service, Big Cypress 
National Preserve.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On October 25, 1996, the National Park Service published a 
Notice and Request for Comments in the Federal Register (F.R. 61(208): 
55313-55314) stating that the National Park Service (NPS) and Virginia 
Polytechnic Institute and State University propose to conduct a survey 
of the current amount and distribution of Off-Road Vehicle (ORV) use 
within the Big Cypress National Preserve. The goal is to learn about 
this use with respect to vehicle type, recreation activity type, and 
management unit location of use. Results will be used by park planners, 
park managers, and members of the public in considering alternative ORV 
management options.
    Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and 5 
CFR Part 1320, Reporting and Record Keeping Requirements, the NPS in 
the October 25 Federal Register notice stated that it was requesting 
OMB to process the Information Collection Request (ICR) under the 
emergency processing provision by November 15, 1996 and that it was 
inviting public comment on the Proposed ICR for thirty days from the 
date of publication of the October 25 Federal Register notice.
    In this notice, the NPS is reporting that it has amended its 
request to OMB to process this ICR under the emergency processing 
provision by requesting a decision date of no later than November 25, 
1996. This revised decision date closely coincides with the published 
30 day period during which the NPS accepted public comments about the 
proposed ICR.

Information Collection Clearance Officer, Audits and Accountability 
Team, National Park Service.
