SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of the Interior (DOI) 
published a notice on February 25, 2011 (76 FR 10526), asking the 
public for ideas and information as it prepared a preliminary plan for 
retrospective regulatory review to comply with President Obama's 
Executive Order 13563 dated January 18, 2011, ``Improving Regulation 
and Regulatory Review.'' We received helpful

information in response to this request, which we considered in 
preparing our plan for retrospective regulatory review. The plan is 
available on DOI's Open Government Web site at: http://www.doi.gov/open/regsreview/. This Web site provides links to the plan, the 
Department's regulations, and an email in-box at RegsReview@ios.doi.gov 
that interested parties may use to suggest, on an ongoing basis, 
improvements to DOI's regulations.
    We continue to invite comment on all of our regulations but are 
specifically asking for public comment on the following regulations or 
policy documents at this time:

25 CFR part 169--Rights-of-Way on Indian Land (1076-AF20)
25 CFR part 23--Indian Child Welfare Act (1076-AF25)
25 CFR part 256--Housing Improvement Program (1076-AF22)
Expanding Incentives for Voluntary Conservation Actions Under the 
Endangered Species Act (1018-AY29)

Ongoing Public Engagement

    DOI views retrospective regulatory review as a continuing process. 
Public engagement is an essential element, and the public may submit 
feedback at any time via email at RegsReview@ios.doi.gov.
    At this time, we are asking for comments related to the following 
questions:
    (1) Are there any specific changes we could make to these 
regulations that would make them more effective or less burdensome in 
achieving their regulatory objectives?
    (2) DOI has proposed specific rules to review over the next two 
years. Are there other rules that could benefit from retrospective 
review in the near future? If so, please identify the rules by their 
CFR citation (e.g., 25 CFR part 39) or by their subject matter (e.g., 
forestry rules) and give us detailed ideas on how we can streamline, 
consolidate, or make these regulations more efficient. Please suggest 
specific language that would make these rules or guidance more 
efficient and less burdensome where possible.
    (3) Are there ways DOI can better scale its regulations to lessen 
the burdens imposed on small entities within the existing statutory 
requirements? Please suggest specific things we could do to exempt 
small entities or provide more flexible or less-burdensome requirements 
while still satisfying the requirements of the law.
    (4) Are DOI regulations and guidance written in language that is 
clear and easy to understand? Please suggest which regulations and 
guidance are good candidates for a rewriting in plain language.
    (5) How can we ensure that our regulations promote our mission in 
ways that are most efficient and least burdensome to the public?
    The Department is issuing this request solely to seek useful 
information as part of its ongoing public engagement process. Responses 
to this request do not bind DOI to any further actions related to the 
response.
    Before including your 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 pursuant to the Freedom of Information 
Act. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal 
identifying information from the public review, we would seek to honor 
your request to the extent allowable under the law but we cannot 
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
