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 60-day public comment period
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on
July 9, 2021 (86 FR 36302). 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 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.
Abstract: The Organic Act of 1916 (54 U.S.C. 100101), authorizes
the NPS to regulate the use of the park areas under its jurisdiction.
Consistent with the Organic Act, as well as the Constitution's
Establishment Clause which mandates government neutrality and allows
the placement of holiday secular and religious displays, the National
Christmas Tree Music Program's holiday musical entertainment may
include both holiday secular and religious music. To ensure that any
proposed music selection is consistent with the Establishment Clause
and is presented in a prudent and objective manner as a traditional
part of the culture and heritage of this annual holiday event, it must
be approved in advance by the NPS.
The NPS National Christmas Tree Music Program at President's Park
is intended to provide musical entertainment for park visitors during
December in celebration of the holiday season. During this time,
visitors can observe the National Christmas Tree, visit assorted
yuletide displays, and attend musical presentations. Each year, park
officials accept applications from musical groups who wish to
participate in the annual National Christmas Tree Program. The NPS uses
Form 10-942, ``National Christmas Tree Music Program Application'' to
accept applications from the public for participation in the program.
Park officials use the information collected to select, plan, schedule,
and contact performers for the National Christmas Tree Program.
