No comments were received from the public. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The GSA hereby gives notice under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), that it is requesting the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to reinstate information collection, 3090- 0248, Placement of Orders and Ordering Information. This information collection advances improved information technology usage by facilitating the use of electronic data interchange (EDI). GSA's Federal Supply Service has discontinued placing paper delivery orders and now maximizes the use of computer to-computer EDI. As an alternative, a contractor can receive EDI delivery orders through facsimile transmission. This extended use of EDI furthers congressional and executive branch policies that Federal agencies provide leadership in advancing environmental objectives through technology and the expanded use of electronic commerce. DATES: May 18, 1998. ADDRESSES: Send comments to Edward Springer, GSA Desk Officer, Room 3235, NEOB, Washington, DC 20503, and to Marjorie Ashby, General Services Administration (MVP), 18th & F Streets, NW, Washington, DC 20405.
