Instructions
Repository Receipt of Collections (Paleontology)
General: After the permittee deposits the collection at the approved repository, the permittee must submit this form, or
another receiving document provided by the approved repository that contains the same information and conditions.
When the repository is a DOI facility, this form may be replaced with any form that provides the same information.
PART 1: PERMITTEE’S CERTIFICATION OF DEPOSIT OF COLLECTIONS.
1. Permittee Name and Contact Information. This is the principal investigator (PI) named in DI Form 9003,
Paleontology Permit.
2. Permit Number. The number assigned by the bureau to the top of the Paleontology Permit.
3. List of Collections. Provide a complete listing of all specimens collected under the authority of the permit and
associated records that are being deposited on the date indicated.
4. Signature of Permittee and Date. Permittee signature and date certifying that all paleontological resources and
associated records on the list are included in the deposit.
PART 2: REPOSITORY’S CERTIFICATION OF RECEIPT OF COLLECTIONS.
5. Repository Name and Address. Identify the repository named on line 8 of the Paleontology Permit or
subsequently authorized by the bureau Federal land manager in a written modification of that permit.
6. Repository Accession Number(s). Accession numbers are assigned by the repository. The bureaus need these
in order to track and report on the federally-owned collections. These numbers may be different from the
accession numbers assigned by the bureaus.
7. Name of Repository’s Authorizing Official. Print the name of the authorized repository official. This official
cannot also be the permittee or named in line 7 of the Paleontology Permit. This is because a conflict of interest
arises if the receiving repository official is also associated with the permitted work, preparation, and deposit of the
collection at the repository. In such cases, another official of the repository with no ties to the permitted work must
be the repository’s authorizing official.
8. Title of Repository’s Authorizing Official. The repository official must be authorized to receive collections on
behalf of the repository.
9. Signature of Repository Official and Date. The repository official signs and dates to certify authorization to
receive Federally-managed paleontological resources and associated records on behalf of the specified
repository and that all paleontological resources and associated records listed on the attached inventory have
been received and deposited at the repository.
