    Title: Ririe Reservoir Recreation Survey.
    Abstract: Ririe Reservoir is located on Willow Creek, a minor 
tributary of the Snake River in Bonneville County of eastern Idaho. 
Ririe Reservoir has recreation attributes that serve Idaho Falls, 
Ririe, and southeastern Idaho, as well as out-of-state visitors. 
Primary summer activities consist of boating, swimming, fishing, 
camping, and picnicking. In general the survey will be used to 
determine carrying capacity for recreation uses on both Reclamation 
lands and water, and necessary management actions related to 
recreation, as identified in the Resource Management Plan for this 
reservoir. Further, the survey will determine if and when boat ramps, 
docks, trails, parking, and other facilities need to be expanded for 
recreation during the next 10 years and if the expansion can be 
accomplished without detriment to natural, recreational, and cultural 
resources.
    Description of respondents: Ririe Reservoir recreationists from 
Idaho Falls, Ririe, southeastern Idaho, and an indeterminate diversity 
of out-of-state visitors to Ririe Reservoir.
    Frequency: This is a one-time voluntary survey.

    Estimated completion time: An average of 30 minutes per respondent.
    Annual responses: 250 respondents.
    Annual burden hours: 125.
    An Agency may 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. Reclamation will display a valid 
OMB control number on the forms.
    The Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting 
comments on this collection of information was published on December 
13, 2001 (66 FR 64454). Reclamation did not receive any comments on 
this collection of information during the comment period.
    OMB has up to 60 days to approve or disapprove this information 
collection, but may respond after 30 days; therefore, public comment 
should be submitted to OMB within 30 days in order to assure maximum 
consideration.
    Our practice is to make comments, including names and home 
addresses of respondents, available for public review. Individual 
respondents may request that we withhold their home address from public 
disclosure, which we will honor to the extent allowable by law. There 
also may be circumstances in which we would withhold a respondent's 
identity from public disclosure, as allowable by law. If you wish us to 
withhold your name and/or address, you must state this prominently at 
the beginning of your comment. We will make all submissions from 
organizations or businesses, and from individuals identifying 
themselves as representatives or officials of organizations or 
businesses, available for public disclosure in their entirety.

Area Manager.
