SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, we provide the general public and other Federal agencies
with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and
continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the impact
of our information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand our information
collection requirements and provide the requested data in the desired
format.
We are soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is described
below. We are especially interested in public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to the proper
functions of the BIE; (2) will this information be processed and used
in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) how
might the BIE enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how might the BIE minimize the
burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use
of information technology.
Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other personal identifying information in
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including
your personal identifying information--may be made publicly available
at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your
personal identifying information from public review, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
Abstract: The BIE is requesting renewal of OMB approval for the
Student Transportation Form. The Student Transportation regulations in
25 CFR part 39, subpart G, contain the program eligibility and criteria
that govern the allocation of transportation funds. Information
collected from the schools will be used to determine the rate per mile.
The information collection provides transportation mileage for Bureau-
funded schools, which determines the allocation of transportation
funds. This information is collected using a web-based system, Native
American Student Information System (NASIS).
Title of Collection: Student Transportation Form.
OMB Control Number: 1076-0134.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Contract and Grant schools; Bureau-
operated schools.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 183 per year, on
average.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 183 per year, on
average.
Estimated Completion Time per Response: Two hours.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 366 hours.
Respondent's Obligation: Required to Obtain a Benefit.
Frequency of Collection: Once per year.
Total Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: $0.
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.
The authority for this action is the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq).
