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 
September 4, 2025 (90 FR 42777). We did not receive any comments in 
response to that Notice.
    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. 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.
    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. We will include or summarize each comment in our request 
to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to approve this ICR. 
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 NPS is authorized by the Historic Sites Act of 1935 
(54 U.S.C. 320101 et seq.), National Historic Landmarks Program (36 CFR 
part 65), and the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (54 U.S.C. 
300101 et seq.) to collect information on behalf of the Secretary of 
the Interior to evaluate properties applying for historic landmark 
designation. In accordance with the law and 36 CFR part 65, private 
citizens, businesses, and organizations; Federal agencies (FPO); State 
and local public agencies; State Historic Preservation Officers 
(SHPOs); territories; and Indian tribes (THPO) may submit nominations 
for National Historic Landmark (NHL) designation. All interested 
parties must inquire by letter or email about the eligibility of 
properties to be considered for NHL designation. The inquiry includes 
the name, location, brief description and historical summary of
