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.
    On January 12, 2022, we published a Federal Register notice 
soliciting comments on this collection of information for 60 days, (87 
FR 1779) ending on March 14, 2022. No comments were received.
    We are again soliciting comments on the proposed ICR described 
below. We are especially interested in public comment addressing the 
following issues: (1) is the collection necessary to the proper 
functions of the NPS; (2) will this information be processed and used 
in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) how 
might the NPS enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (5) how might the NPS 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 NPS administers the NRT program as authorized by 
section 4 of the National Trails System Act (16 U.S.C. 1243) and 
Secretarial Order No. 3319, which establishes National Water Trails as 
a class of National Recreation Trails and directs that such trails 
collectively be considered in a National Water Trails System.
    The NPS uses forms 10-1002: Application for Designation as National 
Water Trail and 10-1003: Application for Designation as National 
Recreation Trail, to evaluate the applications for adherence to NRT 
requirements and criteria. NPS Approval of an application is based on 
(1) the sufficiency of information provided on the application form and 
in supporting documentation, such as photographs, maps, and written 
landowner consents that accompany the form, and (2) successfully 
meeting the NRT requirements and criteria. Successful applications are 
forwarded to the Secretary of the Interior for approval. Revisions to 
Forms 10-1002: Application for Designation--National Water Trails 
System and 10-1003: Application for Designation--National Recreation 
Trail are intended to better clarify trail attributes, provide more 
detailed public information, and align questions asked to establish a 
more unified application process.
