individuals from industry, organized labor, professional groups, and 
academia to serve in executive positions in time of emergency. Such 
individuals must use FEMA Form 85-3 to apply for the NDER program. FEMA

proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (c) enhance the quality, utility, and 
clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) minimize the burden 
of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including 
through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or 
other technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.
