Forest Service

    Title: Grazing Permit Administration Forms.
    OMB Control Number: 0596-0003.
    Summary of Collection: Domestic livestock grazing occurs on 
approximately 92 million acres of National Forest Service (NFS) lands. 
This grazing is subject to authorization and administrative oversight 
by the Forest Service (FS). The information is required for the 
issuance and administration of grazing permits, including fee 
collections, on NFS land as authorized by the Federal Land Policy and 
Management Act 1976, as amended, and subsequent Secretary of 
Agriculture Regulation 5 U.S. C. 301, 36 CFR 222, subparts A and C. The 
bills for collection of grazing fees are based on the number of 
domestic livestock grazed on national forest lands and are a direct 
result of issuance of the grazing permit. Information must be collected 
on an individual basis and is collected through the permit issuance and 
administration process. FS will collect information using several 
forms.
    Need and Use of the Information: FS will collect information on the 
ownership or control of livestock and base ranch property and the need 
for additional grazing to round out year long ranching operations. FS 
uses the information collected in administering the grazing use program 
on NFS land. If information were not collected it would be impossible 
for the agency to administer a grazing use program in accordance with 
the statutes and regulations.
    Description of Respondents: Farms; business or other for-profit; 
individuals or households.
    Number of Respondents: 1,361.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually; Other (as needed 
basis).
    Total Burden Hours: 529.
