The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal

The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

Type of Review: Regular submission.
Affected Public: Enrolled members of the Navajo Nation or Hopi Tribe contemplating filing Applications for Relocation Benefits and members of their families.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 500.
Proposed Frequency of Responses: One-time only.
The time needed to complete and file an Application for Relocation Benefits will vary depending on individual circumstances. As provided in 5 CFR § 1320.3(b)(2), the information sought on the Application is information that Applicants can be assumed to have gathered and maintained in the normal course of their lives such as their age, marital status, children and employment and residence history.

The estimated average time is thirty minutes.
(1) Reviewing instructions—10 minutes;
(2) Acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems—0;
(3) Adjusting the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements—0;
(4) Searching data sources—5 minutes;
(5) Completing and reviewing the collection of information (form)—10 minutes;
(6) Transmitting, or otherwise disclosing the information—5 minutes.
IV. Request for Comments
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden (including hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected, and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval of this existing information collection in use without an OMB control number; they also will become a matter of public record.
Dated: October 7, 2009.
