DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

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, Form, and OMB Number: Military Critical Technical Data 
Agreement; DD Form 2345; OMB Number 0704-0207.
    Type of Request: Extension.
    Number of Respondents: 6,000.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 6,000.
    Average Burden per Response: 20 Minutes.

[[Page 32330]]

    Annual Burden Hours: 2,000.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
as a basis for certifying individuals or businesses to have access to 
DoD export-controlled military critical technical data subject to the 
provisions of 32 CFR 250. Individuals and enterprises that need access 
to unclassified DoD-controlled militarily critical technical data must 
certify on DD Form 2345 that data will be used only in ways that will 
inhibit unauthorized access and maintain the projection afforded by 
U.S. export control laws. Use of the form permits U.S. and Canada 
defense contractors to certify their eligibility to obtain certain 
unclassified technical data with military and space applications. 
Nonavailability of this information prevents defense contractors from 
accessing certain restricted databases and obstructs conference 
attendance where restricted data will be discussed.
    Affected Public: Business or Other For-Profit; Not-For-Profit 
Institutions.
    Frequency: On Occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to Obtain or Retain Benefits.
    OMB Desk Officer: Mr. David M. Pritzker.
    Written comments and recommendations on the proposed information 
collection should be sent to Mr. Pritzker at the Office of Management 
and Budget, Desk Officer for DoD, Room 10236, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503.
    DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. Robert Cushing.
    Written requests for copies of the information collection proposal 
should be sent to Mr. Cushing, WHS/DIOR, 1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, 
Suite 1204, Arlington, VA 22202-4302.

    Dated: June 5, 2001.
Patricia L. Toppings,
Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
