Forest Service
Title: Annual Wildfire Summary Report.
OMB Control Number: 0596-0025.
Summary of Collection: The Cooperative Forestry Assistance Act of
1978 (16 U.S.C. 2101) requires the Forest Service (FS) to collect
information about wildfire suppression efforts by State and local fire
fighting agencies in order to support specific congressional funding
requests for the Forest Service State and Private Forestry Cooperative
Fire Program. The program provides supplemental funding for State
[[Page 78633]]
and local firefighting agencies. The FS works cooperatively with State
and local fire fighting agencies to support their fire suppression
efforts. FS will collect information using form FS 3100-8, Annual
Wildfire Summary Report.
Need and Use of the Information: FS will collect information using
form FS-3100-8 to determine if the Cooperative Fire Program funds,
provided to the State and local fire fighting agencies have been used
by State and local agencies to improve their fire suppression
capabilities. The information collected includes the numbers of fires
and acres burned on State and private land by cause, such as lightning,
campfires, smoking, debris burning, arson, equipment, railroads,
children and miscellaneous activities. Information about the importance
of the State and Private Cooperative Fire Program will be shared with
the pubic. The form also collects information on numbers of fires and
acres burned by size classes. FS would be unable to assess the
effectiveness of the State and Private Forestry Cooperative Fire
Program if the information provided on FS-3100-8, were not collected.
Description of Respondents: State, Local or Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 56.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 28.
