Comment Request

AGENCY: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

owned equipment to digitize NARA and Presidential library archival 
holdings. They use the second information collection to request 
permission to film, photograph, or videotape at a NARA facility for 
news purposes. And they use the third information collection to request 
permission to use NARA facilities in the Washington, DC, area for 
events. We invite you to comment on these proposed information 
collections pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

DATES: We must receive written comments on or before September 25, 
2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), NARA invites the 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 NARA to 
properly perform its functions; (b) NARA's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed information collection and its accuracy; (c) ways NARA 
could enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information it 
collects; (d) ways NARA could minimize the burden on respondents of 
collecting the information, including through information technology; 
and (e) whether the collection affects small businesses. We will 
summarize any comments you submit and include the summary in our
