SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    Section 5 of the Indian Reorganization Act of June 18, 1934 (25 
U.S.C. 465) and the Indian Land Consolidation Act of January 12, 1983 
(25 U.S.C. 2202) authorize the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary), 
in his/her discretion, to acquire lands through purchase, 
relinquishment, gift, exchange, or assignment within or without 
existing reservations for the purpose of providing land for Indian 
Tribes. Other specific laws also authorize the Secretary to acquire 
lands for individual Indians and Tribes. Regulations implementing the 
acquisition authority are at 25 CFR 151. In order for the Secretary to 
acquire land on behalf of individual Indians and Tribes, the Bureau of 
Indian Affairs (BIA) must collect certain information to identify the 
party(ies) involved and to describe the land in question. The Secretary 
also solicits additional information deemed necessary to make a 
determination to accept or reject an application to take land into 
trust for the individual Indian or Tribe, as set out in 25 CFR 151.
    This information collection allows the BIA to review applications 
for compliance with regulatory and statutory requirements. No specific 
form is used. The burden hours for this continued collection of 
information are reflected in the Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden in 
this notice.
