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: Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) 
Military Base Reuse Status; DD Form 2740; OMB Number 0790-0003.
    Type of Request: Extension.
    Number of Respondents: 75.
    Responses per Respondent: 2.
    Annual Responses: 150.
    Average Burden per Response: 1 hour.
    Annual Burden Hours: 150.
    Needs and Uses: Through the Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA), 
DoD, funds are provided to communities for economic adjustment planning 
in response to closures of military installations. A measure of program 
evaluation is the monitoring of civilian job creation and type of 
redevelopment at the former military installations. The respondents to 
the semi-annual survey will generally include single points of contact 
at the local level who are responsible for overseeing redevelopment 
efforts. If this data is not collected, OEA would have no accurate, 
timely information regarding the civilian reuse of former military 
bases. A key function of the economic adjustment program is to 
encourage private sector use of lands and buildings to generate jobs as 
military activity diminishes and to serve as a clearinghouse for reuse 
data.
    Affected Public: Business or Other For-Profit; State, Local, or 
Tribal Government.
    Frequency: Semi-Annually.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    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. 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: July 23, 2001.
Patricia L. Toppings,
Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
