I. Abstract
The BIA is seeking to renew the
information collection it conducts to
provide assistance under 25 CFR 20 to
eligible Indians when comparable
financial assistance or social services
either are not available or not provided
by State, tribal, county, local, or other
Federal agencies. Approval for this
collection expires May 31, 2014. The
information collection allows BIA to
determine whether an individual is
eligible for assistance and services. No
third party notification or public
disclosure burden is associated with
this collection.
II. Request for Comments
The BIA requests your comments on
this collection concerning: (a) The
necessity of this information collection
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden (hours
and cost) of the collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Ways we could enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) Ways we could
minimize the burden of the collection of
the information on the respondents.
Please note that an agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and an individual
need not respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a valid
OMB Control Number.
