SUMMARY: The National Endowment for the Arts, as part of its continuing

Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or 
continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(A)]. This program 
helps ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, 
reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collected 
instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection 
requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the 
National Endowment for the Arts, on behalf of the Federal Council on 
the Arts and the Humanities, is soliciting comments concerning renewal 
of the Application for Indemnification. A copy of this collection 
request can be obtained by contacting the office listed below in the 
address section of this notice.

DATES: Written comments must be submitted to the office listed in the 
address section below on or before June 4, 2001. The National Endowment 
for the Arts its particularly interested in comments which:

--Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary 
for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
--Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
--Enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and
--Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are 
to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, 
mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms 
of information technology, e.g., permitting the electronic submissions 
of responses.
