SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 
et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we invite the public and other Federal 
agencies to comment on new, proposed, revised, and continuing 
collections of information. This helps the BLM assess the impacts of 
its information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand BLM information 
collection requirements and ensure requested data are provided 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 15, 2024 (89 FR 57429).
    As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent 
burdens, we are again inviting the public and other Federal agencies to 
comment on the proposed ICR described below. The BLM is especially 
interested in public comment addressing the following:
    (1) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
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 the agency could minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, including 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 submitted 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 BLM uses the information collection to decide whether 
or not to lease or sell certain public lands to applicants under the 
Recreation and Public Purposes Act, 43 U.S.C. 869 to 869-4. OMB Control 
Number 1004-0012 is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2025. This request 
is for OMB to renew this OMB Control Number for an additional three (3) 
years.
    Title of Collection: Application for Land for Recreation or Public 
Purposes (43 CFR 2740 and 2912).
    OMB Control Number: 1004-0012.
    Form Number: 2740-01.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Territory, County, and Local 
governments; nonprofit corporations; and nonprofit associations.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 23.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 23.
    Estimated Completion Time per Response: 40 hours.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 920.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain a benefit.
    Frequency of Collection: On occasion.
    Total Estimated Annual Non-hour Burden Cost: $2,300.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor and, notwithstanding any other 
provision of law, a person is not required to respond to a collection 
of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The authority for this action is the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

Darrin King,
Information Collection Clearance Officer.
