ICR Summary of Burden

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The information collection associated with 166.217 had been submitted as a combined information collection with 166.200, Grazing Permits, in the past. It is now separated out to better account for the burden associated with actually applying for or bidding on grazing privileges, as opposed to reviewing and signing a permit once it’s issued. This results in an agency adjustment increase of 1,000 responses and 333 burden hours. In addition, there are three information collections associated with regulatory requirements that have been in place, but which BIA previously determined did not require clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Now, upon closer examination, BIA has determined that these information collections do, in fact, impose a public burden. These increases of 9,250 in responses and 3,083 in burden hours are recorded as a program change due to agency discretion. Finally, an entry in ROCIS previously stated that there was a cost burden of $175,000 in the form of a 3% administrative fee. Since the fee is a regulatory fee for administering the program, it is not associated with just the information collection and should not be included.
