SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501) 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.
As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other Federal agencies to comment on
new, proposed, revised, and continuing collections of information. 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.
Abstract: Enrollment data is an important source of information
which allows the Indian Affairs and other Federal agencies to equitably
distribute resources because it is a quantifiable representation of a
Tribe's population. Different population sizes generally require
different levels of services and resources. BIA must collect this
information to ensure effective, accurate, and timely distribution of
assistance to respond to funds specifically appropriated for Indian
Country, where applicable. The authority for this information
collection is 25 U.S.C. 2.
Title of Collection: Tribal Enrollment Count.
OMB Control Number: 1076-0197.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Federally recognized Tribes.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 574 per year.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 574 per year.
Estimated Completion Time per Response: 1 hour.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 574 hours.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
Frequency of Collection: Annually.
Total Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: $0.
Authority
An agency may not conduct or sponsor and 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).
Scott J. Davis,
Senior Advisor to the Secretary of the Interior, Exercising the
delegated authority of the Assistant Secretary--Indian Affairs.
