Title: Application for Payment. OMB Number: 0578-0018. Expiration Date of Approval: April 30, 2001. Type of Request: To continue, with change, a currently approved collection for which approval will expire. Abstract: The primary objective of NRCS is to work in partnership with the American people to conserve and sustain our natural resources. The purpose of the Application for Payment information collection is to provide NRCS program participants with a method for making application for payment, provide information regarding completion of conservation program contract activities, provide certification of work performed within the required standards, determine division of payment, ascertain the status of debt register collections, and provide the responsible NRCS official with authority to make Federal cost-share payments to the land user or third party upon successful completion of a conservation program contract. Information collected is used by NRCS to ensure the proper use of program funds. The NRCS-FNM-141 or the CCC-1202 are the basic documents used by USDA program participants and vendors to request payment through their USDA Service Center in return for applying one or more conservation practices in a long-term contract or completing an action associated with filing an easement (7 CFR 631.12, 7 CFR 632.31, 7 CFR 636.6, 7 CFR 701.44, 7 CFR 702.12, 7 CFR 752.14 and 7 CFR 1467.9). NRCS will ask for 3-year OMB approval within 60 days of submitting the request.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.52 hours per response.
Respondents: Farms, individuals, households, or State, local, or Tribal governments.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 35,540.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 20,731.5.
