SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 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. On October 11, 2019, we published a Federal Register notice soliciting comments on this collection of information for 60 days, ending on December 10, 2019 (84 FR 54921). No public comments were received in response to this notice. We are again soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is described below. We are especially interested in public comment addressing the following issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to the proper functions of the NPS; (2) will this information be processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) how might the NPS enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the NPS minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use of information technology. 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, 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 administers the NRT program as authorized by section 4 of the National Trails System Act (16 U.S.C. 1243) and Secretarial Order No. 3319, which establishes National Water Trails as a class of National Recreation Trails and directs that such trails collectively be considered in a National Water Trails System. The NPS uses forms 10-1002: Application for Designation as National Water Trail and 10-1003: Application for Designation as National Recreation Trail, to evaluate the applications for adherence to NRT requirements and criteria. NPS Approval of an application is based on (1) the sufficiency of information provided on the application form and in supporting documentation, such as photographs, maps, and written landowner consents that accompany the form, and (2) successfully meeting the NRT requirements and criteria. Successful applications are forwarded to the Secretary of the Interior for approval. Title of Collection: Application for Designation as National Recreation Trail or National Water Trail.
