DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

National Park Service


60 Day Notice of Intention To Request for Clearance of 
Information Collection, Special Park Use Application Forms, Opportunity 
for Public Comment

AGENCY: National Park Service, Department of the Interior.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
(Pub. L. 104-14, 44 U.S.C. 3507) and 5 CFR, part 1320 Reporting and 
Record Keeping Requirements, the National Park Service (NPS) invites 
public comment on a request for approval for the information collection 
requirements. These information collections are associated with permits 
implementing provisions of the agency regulations pertaining to the use 
of public lands. The uses considered under these information collection 
applications generally include those which regulate or limit those 
activities not available to the public at large, such as special 
events, commercial filming, and grazing in parks where such activity is 
authorized by law. The OMB control number 1024-0026 has been 
temporarily assigned to the three draft application forms included in 
this request for comments. These forms are intended to act in the 
capacity of gathering sufficient information to enable park managers to 
be able to approve or deny the requested uses of public lands and, if 
approved, to provide sufficient conditions to protect park lands from 
impairment or derogation of the resources, values or purposes for which 
the park was created.

DATES: Public comments will be accepted on or before May 2, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to: Dick Young, C/O Colonial National Historic 
Park P.O. Box 210 Yorktown, VA 23690. All responses to this notice will 
be summarized and included in the request for OMB final approval. All 
comments will become a matter of public record. Copies of the above 
mentioned draft forms may be obtained from the Internet at http://www.nps.gov/refdesk/DOrders/index.htm under ``draft guidance 
documents.''

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dick Young at (757) 898-7846.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Specific Comments Sought: NPS seeks 
comments, in particular, on the necessity for this information 
collection, the accuracy of our burden estimates, the clarity of the 
information to be collected and alternative methods of collection to 
minimize burden and improve service to the public.

 Acting Chief, Ranger Activities Division.
