SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), NARA invites the general public and other 
Federal agencies to comment on proposed information collections. The 
comments and suggestions should address one or more of the following 
points: (a) Whether the proposed information collection is necessary 
for the proper performance of the functions of NARA; (b) the accuracy 
of NARA's estimate of the burden of the proposed information 
collection; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of 
the collection of information on respondents, including the use of 
information technology. The comments that are submitted will be 
summarized and included in the NARA request for Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) approval. All comments will become a matter of public 
record. In this notice, NARA is soliciting comments concerning the 
following information collection:
    Title: Request for and Record of Pass.
    OMB number: 3095-0026.
    Agency form number: NA Form 6006.
    Type of review: Regular.
    Affected public: Individuals or households, business or other for-
profit organizations and institutions, and Federal government.
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,300.
    Estimated time per response: 3 minutes.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Estimated total annual burden hours: 65 hours.
    Abstract: The collection of information is necessary as a security 
measure to protect employees, information, and property in NARA 
facilities and to facilitate the issuance of passes. Use of the form is 
authorized by 44 U.S.C. 2104. Respondents who are contractors are given 
a building pass which expires at the end of each fiscal year; those who 
are volunteers are given a pass valid for 2 years. At the NARA College 
Park facility, individuals receive an access card with the pass that is 
electronically coded to permit access to secure zones ranging from a 
general nominal level to stricter access levels for classified records 
zones. The access card system is part of the security management system 
which meets the accreditation standards of the Government intelligence 
agencies for storage of classified information, and serves to comply 
with E.O. 12958.
