SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    The National Register of Historic Places (National Register) is the 
official Federal list of districts, sites, buildings, structures, and 
objects significant in American history, architecture, archeology, 
engineering, and culture. National Register properties have 
significance to the history of communities, States, or the Nation. The 
National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 requires the Secretary of 
the Interior to maintain and expand the National Register, and to 
establish criteria and guidelines for including properties on the 
National Register. National Register properties must be considered in 
the planning for Federal or federally assisted projects, and listing in 
the National Register is required for eligibility for Federal 
rehabilitation tax incentives. The National Park Service administers 
the National Register. Nominations for listing historic properties come 
from State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPO), from Federal 
Preservation Officers (FPO), for properties owned or controlled by the 
United States Government, and from Tribal Historic Preservation 
Officers (THPO), for properties on tribal lands. Private individuals 
and organizations, local governments, and American Indian tribes often 
initiate this process and prepare the necessary documentation. 
Regulations at 36 CFR 60 and 63 establish the criteria and guidelines 
for listing and for determining the eligibility of properties. We use 
three forms for nominating properties and providing documentation for 
the proposed listings:
     NPS Form 10-900 (National Register of Historic Places 
Registration Form).
     NPS Form 10-900-a (National Register of Historic Places 
Continuation Sheet).
     NPS Form 10-900-b (National Register of Historic Places 
Multiple Property Documentation Form).
    This Notice provides additional information regarding the packages 
submitted to the NPS and to expand the details for our burden from the 
original Notice published on January 28, 2015 (80 FR 4589). The 
following are the five types of package submissions the NPS receives 
from the SHPOs, FPOs, and/or THPOs with the respective burden estimates 
broken down by state in Section II below:
     36 CFR 60 and 63, National Register of Historic Places 
Registration Nomination Form; Continuation Sheet; NR Multiple Property 
Submission Multiple Property Documentation Form Submitted to State & 
Local Gov't by Individuals or Households (Forms 10-900, 10-900-a and 
10-900-b)--packages submitted by nonconsultants;
     Individual Nominations Submitted to State & Local Gov't by 
Consultants (Forms 10-900 and 10-900-a)--Packages submitted by paid 
consultants;
     District Nominations Submitted to State and Local Gov't by 
Consultants (Form 10-900 and 10-900-a)--Packages submitted by paid 
consultants;
     Nominations Submitted under Existing MPS Covers to State & 
Local Gov't by Consultants (Forms 10-900 and 10-900-a)--Packages 
submitted by paid consultants; and
     Newly Proposed MPS Cover Document Submitted to State & 
Local Gov't by Consultants (Forms 10-900-b and 10-900-a)--Packages 
submitted by paid consultants.
    These forms and supporting documentation go to the State Historic 
Preservation Office (SHPO) of the State [or FPO, or THPO, respectively] 
where the property is located. The State Historic Preservation Officer, 
Federal Preservation Officer, or Tribal Historic Preservation Officer 
can take one of several options: Reject the property, ask for more 
information, (or in the case of the SHPO, list the property just with 
the State), or send the forms to us for listing on the National 
Register. An appeals process is also available to any person or local 
government for the failure or refusal of a nominating authority to 
nominate a property. Once NPS receive the forms, NPS conducts a similar 
review process.
    Listing on the National Register provides formal recognition of a 
property's historical, architectural, or archeological significance 
based on national standards used by every State. The listing places no 
obligations on private property owners, and there are no restrictions 
on the use, treatment, transfer, or disposition of private property.
