The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable

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

provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Source Directory of American Indian and Alaska Native owned and operated arts and crafts enterprises is a program of the Indian Arts and Crafts Board that promotes American Indian and Alaska Native arts and crafts. The Source Directory is a listing of American Indian and Alaska Native owned and operated arts and crafts businesses that may be accessed by the public on the Indian Arts and Crafts Board's Web site http://www.iacb.doi.gov.
The service of being listed in this directory is provided free-of-charge to members of federally recognized tribes. Businesses listed in the Source Directory include American Indian and Alaska Native artists and craftspeople, cooperatives, tribal arts and crafts enterprises, businesses privately-owned-and-operated by American Indian and Alaska Native artists, designers, and craftspeople, and businesses privately owned-and-operated by American Indian and Alaska Native merchants who retail and/or wholesale authentic Indian and Alaska Native arts and crafts. Business listings in the Source Directory are arranged alphabetically by State.
The Director of the Board uses this information to determine whether an individual or business applying to be listed in the Source Directory meets the requirements for listing. The approved ( printed page 46640) application will be printed in the Source Directory. The Source Directory is updated annually to include new businesses and to update existing information.
II. Method of Collection
To be listed in the Source Directory, interested individuals and businesses must submit: (1) A draft of their business information in a format like the other Source Directory listings, (2) a copy of the individual's or business owner's tribal enrollment card; and for businesses, proof that the business is organized under tribal, state, or federal law; and (3) a certification that the business is an American Indian or Alaska Native owned and operated cooperative, tribal enterprise, or nonprofit organization, or that the owner of the enterprise is an enrolled member of a federally recognized American Indian Tribe or Alaska Native group.
The following information is collected in a single-page form that is distributed by the Indian Arts and Crafts Board. Although listing in the Source Directory is voluntary, submission of this information is required for inclusion in the Directory.
| Information collected | Reason for collection |
| --- | --- |
| Name of business, mailing address, city, zip code (highway location, Indian reservation, etc.), telephone number and e-mail address | To identify the business to be listed in the Source Directory, and method of contact. |
| Type of organization | To identify the nature of the business entity. |
| Hours/season of operation | To identify those days and times when customers may contact the business. |
| Internet Web site address | To identify whether the business advertises and/or sells inventory online. |
| Main categories of products | To identify the products that the business produces. |
| Retail or wholesale products | To identify whether the business is a retail or wholesale business. |
| Mail order and/or catalog | To identify whether the business has a mail order and/or catalog. |
| Price list information, if applicable | To identify the cost of the listed products. |
| For a cooperative or tribal enterprise, a copy of documents showing that the organization is formally organized under tribal, state or federal law | To determine whether the business meets the eligibility requirement for listing in the Source Directory. |
| Signed certification that the business is an American Indian or Alaska Native owned and operated cooperative, tribal enterprise, or nonprofit organization | To obtain verification that the business is an American Indian or Alaska Native owned and operated business. |
| Copy of the business owner's tribal enrollment card | To determine whether the business owner is an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe. |
| Signed certification that the owner of the business is a member of a federally recognized tribe | To obtain verification that the business owner is an enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe. |
The proposed use of the information: The information collected will be used by the Indian Arts and Crafts Board:
(a) To determine whether an individual or business meets the eligibility requirements for inclusion in the Source Directory, i.e., whether they are either an American Indian or Alaska Native owned and operated cooperative, tribal enterprise, or nonprofit organization, or an enrolled member of a federally recognized American Indian Tribe or Alaska Native group; and
(b) To identify the applicant's business information to be printed in the Source Directory.
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 Office of Management and Budget control number. The IACB has submitted a request to OMB to renew its approval of this information collection for an additional three years. There are four types of application forms: (1) New businesses—group; (2) new businesses—individual; (3) businesses already listed—group; and (4) businesses already listed—individual. Each respondent will only be asked to complete one application form.
As required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d), a Federal Register notice soliciting comments on the collection of information was published on May 19, 2008 (73 FR 28836). No comments were received. This notice provides the public with an additional 30 days in which to comment on the following information collection activity.
