Abstract:
The Public Gathering Permit System is an extension of the National Park Service (NPS) statutory responsibilities to protect the park areas it administers and to manage public use. NPS regulations, as applicable to demonstrations and special events in National Capital Region (NCR) parks, are designed to implement statutory mandates to provide for resource protection and public enjoyment. These regulations reflect the special demands on many of the urban NCR parks as sites for demonstrations and special events. The NPS collects information in the Public Gathering Permit application to allow NPS officials to determine that groups conducting demonstrations and special events will use adequate measures to ensure order within their own ranks and to assist in protecting demonstrating groups. Permit applications also provide a means to request waivers of numerical limitations on the White House sidewalk and in Lafayette Park and to ensure demonstrating groups take adequate measures to minimize the possibility of danger to the White House and its occupants.

Short Statement:
There are no programmatic changes associated with the forms requested in this extension. The net decrease of 1,210 responses and 967 burden hours is due to an administrative change in how applications are recorded in the permit database. We worked to improve methods to more accurately make distinctions between individual and private sector respondents. These efforts aided in reducing duplication and improving record-keeping within the permit database have lowered our estimation of annual responses for this renewal. We are reporting a reduction of $46,440 in non-hour burden costs associated with the corrected method of tracking the application for First Amendment activities. This is a more accurate response of the annual non-hour burden costs associated with this collection.
