Proposed Collection: Comment Request

ACTION: Notice

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

SUMMARY: The National Endowment for the Arts, as part of its continuing 
effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and 
Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or 
continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995. This program helps ensure that requested data 
can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and 
financial resources) is minimized, collection 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 
International 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

[[Page 12640]]

address section below on or before May 5, 2017. The National Endowment 
for the Arts is 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.
