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 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 is 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
March 19, 2026 (91 FR 13323). No comments were received in response to
that notice.
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 comments 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 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 OMB to approve this ICR. Before including your address, phone
number,
[[Page 57918]]
email address, or other personally identifying information (PII) in
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment, including
your PII, may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask
us in your comment to withhold your PII from public review, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
Abstract: The BLM uses the information to determine whether private
citizens, State and local governments, and businesses are qualified to
use, occupy, or develop the public lands under certain conditions. The
land uses that may be authorized are agricultural development,
residential, recreation concessions, business, industrial, and
commercial. This OMB control number is currently scheduled to expire on
September 30, 2026. The BLM request that OMB renew this OMB control
number for an additional three (3) years.
Title of Collection: Land Use Application and Permit (43 CFR part
2920).
OMB Control Number: 1004-0009.
Form Numbers: Form 2920-1.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals, State and local
governments, and businesses that wish to use public lands.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 407.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 407.
Estimated Completion Time per Response: Varies from 1 to 120 hours,
depending on activity.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 2,455.
Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain a benefit.

Total Estimated Annual Non-hour Burden Cost: $145,760.
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 PRA of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.).
