Estimated Annual Burden Hours:

Abstract: The Backcountry Use Permit
(Form 10–404A) is used to implement a
backcountry reservation system and
provide access into backcountry zones
where registration is required or limits
are imposed in accordance with
regulations. Such permitting enhances
the ability of the NPS to issue hazard
warnings, to conduct search and rescue
efforts, and to provide resource
protection.
The objectives of the permit system
are to ensure: (1) Requests by
backcountry users are evaluated by park
managers in accordance with applicable
statutes and NPS regulations; (2) use of
consistent standards and permitting
criteria throughout the agency; and (3)
to the extent possible, use of a single
permitting document.
Comments: On July 19, 2010, we
published in the Federal Register (75
FR 41879) a notice of our intent to
request that OMB renew this
information collection. In that notice,
we solicited comments for 60 days,
ending on September 17, 2010. We did
not receive any comments in response

whether or not the information will
have practical utility;
• The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information;
• Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be

• Ways to minimize the burden of the

Abstract: The NPS regulates scientific
research, studies and science education
activities inside park boundaries under
regulations codified at 36 CFR Part 2,
Section 2.5. The NPS administers these
regulations to provide for scientific
research while also protecting park
resources and other park uses from
adverse impacts that could occur if
inappropriate scientific research and
collecting studies or science education
activities were to be conducted within
park boundaries.
NPS uses the collected information
for managing the use and preservation
of park resources and for reporting to
the public the status of permitted
research and collecting activities. NPS is
requesting that OMB renew its approval
of the current Application for a
Scientific Research and Collecting
Permit, Application for a Science
Education Permit, and Investigator’s
Annual Report collection of information
forms.
Comments: On July 21, 2010, we
published in the Federal Register (75
FR 42459) a notice of our intent to
request that OMB renew this
information collection. In that notice,
we solicited comments for 60 days,
ending on September 20, 2010. NPS
received one comment on this notice.
The one comment stated that the
commenter has ‘‘no problems with the
current permitting system for full-scale
research projects in the National Parks.
However, I would like to recommend a
simplified and rapid permitting process

reasons for changing any of the three
forms.
We again invite comments concerning
this information collection on:
• Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary, including
whether or not the information will
have practical utility;
• The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information;

• Ways to minimize the burden of the
