DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary


Public Information Collection Requirement Submitted to the Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB) for Review

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Department of Defense has submitted to OMB for clearance, the 
following proposal for collection of information under the provisions 
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Title, Applicable Forms, and OMB Control Number: Validation of 
Public or Community Service Employment Performed by Retired Personnel 
Retired Under the Temporary Early Retirement Authority for Increased 
Retirement

[[Page 49738]]

Compensation, DD Form 2767, 0704-0357.
    Type of Request: Reinstatement, with change.
    Number of Respondents: 4,800.
    Responses per Respondent: 1
    Annual Responses: 4,800.
    Average Burden per Response: 10 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 800.
    Needs and Uses: Public Law 102-484, Section 4464, required the 
Department of Defense to develop policy and procedures to validate and 
credit increased compensation for qualifying public and community 
service employment performed by retired personnel of the Armed Forces 
under the ``Temporary Early Retirement Authority Program.'' Public Law 
103-337, Section 542, extended this program to the Coast Guard. This 
information collection, which uses the DD Form 2676, ``Validation of 
Public or Community Service Employment,'' will allow DoD and Coast 
Guard to collect necessary information to recompute retired pay when 
the participating member qualifies under this program. Respondents to 
this program will be public or community service employers. The data 
are submitted by the Defense Manpower Data Center to either the Defense 
Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) or the Coast Guard Finance Center 
for update of final pay information files. When a member reaches age 
62, the Finance Centers will recompute retirement pay, adding whatever 
public or community service employment was validated during the 
enhanced retirement qualification period.
    Affected Public: Not-for-profit institutions; Federal Government; 
State, local, or tribal government.
    Frequency: On occasion and annually.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
    OMB Desk Officer: Mr. Edward C. Springer.
    Written comments and recommendations on the proposed information 
collection should be sent to Mr. Springer at the Office of Management 
and Budget, Desk Officer for DoD, Room 10236, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503.
    DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. William Pearce.
    Written requests for copies of the information collection proposal 
should be sent to Mr. Pearce, WHS/DIOR, 1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, 
Suite 1204, Arlington, VA 22202-4302.

    Dated: September 17, 1996.
Patricia L. Toppings,
Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
