SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction

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 personally identifying information in 
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including 
your personally identifying information--may be made publicly available 
at any time. While you can ask the BLM in your comment to withhold your 
personally identifying information from public review, we cannot 
guarantee that we will be able to do so.

whether or not to lease or sell certain public lands to applicants
