SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3517 of the Paperwork Reduction Act

early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB 
may amend or waive the requirement for public consultation to the 
extent that public participation in the approval process would defeat 
the purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal 
law, or substantially interfere with any agency's ability to perform 
its statutory obligations. The Acting Director of the Information 
Resources Management Service, publishes this notice containing proposed 
information collection requests prior to submission of these requests 
to OMB. Each proposed information collection, grouped by office, 
contains the following: (1) Type of review requested, e.g., new, 
revision, extension, existing or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) 
Frequency of collection; (4) The affected public; (5) Reporting burden; 
and/or (6) Recordkeeping burden; and (7) Abstract. OMB invites public 
comment at the address specified above. Copies of the requests are
