alternatives. Mitigation may include
avoidance, minimization, rectification,
reduction or elimination over time, and
compensation; and may be considered
at multiple scales, including the
landscape scale.
The BLM and FWS will utilize and
coordinate the NEPA process to help
support compliance with applicable
procedural requirements under the ESA
(16 U.S.C. 1536). BLM will also use the
NEPA process to comply with Section
106 of the NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306108) as
provided in 36 CFR 800.2(d)(3),
including the public involvement
requirements of Section 106.
Information about historic and cultural
resources within the area potentially
affected by the proposed project will
assist the BLM in identifying and
evaluating impacts to such resources.
The BLM will also consult on cultural
resources and create a Memorandum of
Agreement with consulting parties.
The BLM and FWS will consult with
Indian Tribal Nations on a governmentto-government basis in accordance with
Executive Order 13175, BLM Manual
Section 1780, and other Departmental
policies. Tribal concerns, including
impacts on Indian trust assets and
potential impacts to cultural resources,
will be given due consideration.
Federal, State, and local agencies, along
with Indian Tribal Nations and other
stakeholders that may be interested in or
affected by the proposed action the BLM
and the FWS are evaluating, are invited
to participate in the scoping process
and, if eligible, may request or be
requested by the BLM and FWS to
participate in the development of the
environmental analysis as a cooperating
agency.
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 include in your comment
a request to withhold your personal
identifying information from public
review, the agencies cannot guarantee
that they will be able to do so.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the PRA and 5 CFR
1320.8(d)(1), 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.
A Federal Register notice with a 60day public comment period soliciting
comments on this collection of
information was published on October
28, 2022 (87 FR 65246). No comments
were received.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we are again soliciting
comments from the public and other
Federal agencies on the proposed ICR
that is described below. We are
especially interested in public comment
addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility.
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used.
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected.
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your

comment—including your personal
identifying information—may be made
publicly available at any time. While
you can ask us in your comment to

Abstract: Authorized by the National
Park Service Act Organic Act, 54 U.S.C.
100101, we must preserve America’s
natural wonders unimpaired for future
generations, while also making them
available for the enjoyment of the
visitor. Meeting this mandate requires
that we balance preservation with use.
Maintaining a good balance requires
both information and use. In accordance
with regulations at 36 CFR, we issue
permits for special park uses. Special
park uses cover a wide range of
activities including, but not limited to
special events, First Amendment
activities, grazing and agricultural use,
filming, still photography, construction,
and vehicle access. Permits are issued
for varying durations of time based on
the requested use, but generally do not
exceed 5 years. A new application must
be submitted in order to request the
renewal of an existing permit.
The information we collect in the
special use applications allows park
managers to determine if the requested
use is consistent with the laws and NPS
regulations referenced above and with
the public interest. The park manager
must also determine that the requested
activity will not cause unacceptable
impacts to park resources and values.
The information is collected using the
following NPS forms:
• 10–930—Application for Special Use
Permit
• 10–930c—Application for Special Use
Permit—Climbing
• 10–930s—Application for Special Use
Permit (short form)
• 10–931—Application for Special Use
Permit—Still Photography Permit
(short)
• 10–932—Application for Special Use
Permit—Still Photography Permit
(long)
• 10–933—Application for Special Use
Permit—Vehicle/Watercraft Use
With this renewal, we are requesting
to introduce two new forms to this
collection:
(1) Form 10–934 Application for
Special Use Permit—Demonstrations
and Distribution of Materials. This new
form will be used to authorize First
Amendment activities in system units.
(2) Form 10–930q—Special Park Use
Application/Permit—Quarry Activities.
PO 00000
Frm 00067
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Per 36 CFR 7.42, this new form will be
used to authorize quarry activities
specific to Pipestone National
Monument.
Information collected on the forms is
used to evaluate requests for Special
Use Permits and facilitate the permitting
process. If the requested use is
consistent with park regulations, the
information collected is used to issue a
permit.
Title of Collection: Special Park Use
Applications.
OMB Control Number: 1024–0026.
Form Number: NPS Forms 10–930,
10–930c, 10–930s, 10–930q (new) 10–
931, 10–932, 10–933, 10–934 (new).
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.

or other for-profit entities; and Federal,
State, local and tribal governments.

minutes.

sponsor and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
