<p>You may recall that we protested rather vigorously against this
idea that if your facility holds material that may have been
collected on what may have been federally managed public property,
you will have to submit inventories to DOI. <br>
</p>
<p>For naught. <br>
</p>
<p>The White House Office of Management and Budget, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs, approved the collection
request in May 2015. <br>
</p>
<p>I have not heard that any museum has actually received notice of
the requirements, a survey, or anything else from DOI in pursuit
of these inventories. <br>
</p>
<p>Please let me know if you have received something.<br>
</p>
Thanks.<br>
