SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
(Public Law 104-13, 44 U.S.C. 3507) and 5 CFR part 1320, this notice 
announces the National Park Service's (NPS) intention to request an 
extension for eight currently approved information collections (ICR) 
for the Land and Water Conservation Fund (L&WCF) and Urban Park and 
Recreation Recovery (UPARR) grant programs.
    1. L&WCF Description and Notification (DNF) Form. The DNF is 
necessary to provide data input into the NPS Automated Project 
information system which provides timely data on projects funded over 
the life of the L&WCF program.

102, grantees must submit performance reports which describe the status 
of the work required under the project scope.
    3. L&WCF Project Agreement and Amendment Form. The Project 
Agreement and Amendment forms set forth the obligations assumed by the 
State through its acceptance of Federal assistance under the L&WCF Act 
and any special terms and conditions.
    4. L&WCF On-Site Inspection Report. The On-Site Inspection Reports 
are used to ensure compliance by grantees with applicable Federal and 
program guidelines, and to ensure the continued viability of the funded 
site.
    5. L&WCF Conversion of Use Provisions. To convert assisted sites to 
other than public outdoor recreation, L&WCF project sponsors must 
provide relevant information necessary to comply with Section 6(f)(3) 
of the L&WCF Act of 1965.
    6. UPARR Project Performance Report. As required by OMB Circular A-
102, grant recipients must submit performance reports which describe 
the status of the work required under the project scope.
    7. UPARR Conversion of Use Provisions. To convert assisted sites to 
other than public recreation, UPARR project sponsors must provide 
relevant information necessary to comply with the Section 1010 of the 
UPARR Act of 1978.
