    Needs and Uses: The Naval Petroleum Reserves Production Act (NPRPA)

petroleum products listed in Supplement No. 1 to this part that were

reserves produced or derived commodity, other than crude oil, will be 
denied unless the President makes a finding required under the Naval 
Petroleum Reserves Production Act (10 U.S.C. 7430). To date, the 
President has not made any national interest findings that would allow 
exports under this statute.

    This information collection requires the submission of a license 
application for the export of petroleum products that are listed in 
Supplement No. 1 of Section 754 of the Export Administration 
Regulation. These petroleum products are produced or derived from crude
