ADDRESSES: Send your comments on this information collection request 
(ICR) by mail to the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land 
Management, 1849 C Street NW, Room 2134LM, Washington, DC 20240,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request additional information

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. We are 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 BLM; (2) will this information be processed and 
used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) 
how might the BLM enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (5) how might the BLM 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 Color-of-Title Act (43 U.S.C. 1068, 1068a, and 1068b) 
provides for the issuance of a land patent to a tract of public land of 
up to 160 acres, where the claimant shows peaceful, adverse possession 
of the tract in good faith for more than 20 years, as well as

[[Page 15599]]

sufficient improvement or cultivation of the land. The information 
covered in this control number enables the Bureau of Land Management 
(BLM) to determine whether or not such a claimant has made a showing 
that is sufficient to obtain a land patent under the Act.
    Title of Collection: Color-of-Title Application.
    OMB Control Number: 1004-0029.
    Form Numbers: 2540-1, 2540-2, and 2540-3.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals, groups, and corporations 
that request a land patent under the Color-of-Title Act.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 7.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 7.
    Estimated Completion Time per Response: 3 hours.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 21 hours.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain a benefit.
    Frequency of Collection: On occasion.
    Total Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: $70 (7 applications 
annually x $10 per application).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor and 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 Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq).
