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.
    A Federal Register notice with a 60-day public comment period 
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on 
November 2, 2017 (82 FR 50890). No comments were received.
    We are again 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 BIA; (2) will this information be processed and 
used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) 
how might the BIA enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (5) how might the BIA 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. 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 BIA is seeking to renew the information collection 
conducted under 25 CFR 23, related to the Indian Child Welfare Act 
(ICWA). BIA collects information using a consolidated caseload form, 
which tribal ICWA program directors fill out. BIA uses the information 
to determine the extent of service needs in local Indian communities, 
assess ICWA program effectiveness, and provide date for the annual 
program budget justification. The aggregated report is not considered 
confidential. This form must completed by tribes that operate child 
protection programs. Submission of this information by Indian tribes 
allows BIA to consolidate and review selected data on Indian child 
welfare cases. The data is useful on a local level, to the tribes and 
tribal entities that collect it, for case management purposes. The data 
are useful on a nationwide basis for planning and budget purposes.
    Title of Collection: Indian Child Welfare Quarterly and Annual 
Report.
    OMB Control Number: 1076-0131.
    Form Number: None.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Indian tribes or tribal entities that 
are operating programs for Indian tribes.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 940 per year, on 
average.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 3,760 per year, on 
average.
    Estimated Completion Time per Response: Approximately 15 minutes 
for Part A--ICWA Data; approximately 15 minutes for Part B--Tribal 
Child Abuse and Neglect Data.

[[Page 4068]]

    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 940, per year on 
average.
    Respondent's Obligation: A response is required to obtain a 
benefit.
    Frequency of Collection: Four times per year for the Part A--ICWA 
Data; if applicable, four times per year for Part B--Tribal Child Abuse 
Neglect Data.
    Total Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: $0.
    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).

Director, Office of Regulatory Affairs and Collaborative Action--Indian 
Affairs.
