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 BIE; (2) will this information be processed and used 
in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) how 
might the BIE enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (5) how might the BIE 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 regulations at 25 CFR 36, Subpart G, Home-living 
Programs, implement section 1122 of the Native American Education 
Improvement Act of 2001 (Pub. L. 95-561, title XI, Sec.  1120, as added 
Pub. L. 107-110, title X, Sec.  1042, Jan. 8, 2002, 115 Stat. 2007). 
These regulations require the BIE to implement national standards for 
home-living situations in all BIE-funded residential schools. The BIE 
must collect information from all BIE-funded residential schools in 
order to assess each school's progress in meeting the national 
standards. Submission of this information allows the BIE to ensure that 
minimum academic standards for the education of Indian children and 
criteria for dormitory situations in Bureau-operated schools and 
Indian-controlled contract schools are met.
    Title of Collection: Homeliving Programs and School Closure and 
Consolidation.
    OMB Control Number: 1076-0164.
    Form Number: None.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Indian Tribes.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: There are 65 schools 
with residential programs, of which 13 are Bureau-operated and 52 are 
Tribally-operated. Thus, the collection of information must be cleared 
for 52 of the 65 residential schools.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 730 per year, on 
average.
    Estimated Completion Time per Response: Ranges from 1 minute to 40 
hours, depending on the activity.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 1,344 hours.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to Obtain a Benefit.
    Frequency of Collection: Annual or on occasion, depending on the 
activity.

[[Page 53291]]

    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.).
