SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork
[[Page 14286]]
Reduction Act of 1995, 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 60-day public comment period
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on
August 12, 2021 (86 FR 44401). 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; and
(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 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 ask us in your comment to withhold your personal
identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we
will be able to do so.

requirements are met, (2) a breakdown of the specific uses to which net
gaming revenues will be allocated, (3) eligibility requirements for
participation, (4) tax liability notification, and (5) the assurance of
the protection and preservation of the per capita share of minors and
legal incompetents. Sections 290.12, 290.17, 290.24 and 290.26 of 25
CFR part 290, Tribal Revenue Allocation Plans, specify the information
collection requirement. The information to be collected includes: The
