Request; Foreign National Request Form

    The Department of Commerce will submit the following information 
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995, on or after the date of publication of this notice. We invite the 
general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed, and 
continuing information collections, which helps us assess the impact of 
our information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the 
Federal Register on March 29, 2022, during a 60-day comment period. 
This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.
    Agency: Office of the Secretary, Office of Security (OSY), 
Commerce.
    Title: Foreign National Request Form.
    OMB Control Number: 0690-0033.
    Form Number(s): 207-12-1.
    Type of Request: Regular (extension of a currently approved 
information collection).

[[Page 35966]]

    Number of Respondents: 12,000.
    Average Hours per Response: 15 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 3,000.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost to Public: $0.
    Needs and Uses: The Office of Security is requesting clearance of 
this collection to continue gathering information to mitigate variances 
in foreign access management program implementation and registration 
information requirements needed to reach risk-based determinations of 
physical and logical access by foreign national visitors and guests to 
Commerce facilities and resources. The information collected will be 
used for risk-based assessments of short-term access or as partial 
completion towards long term guest research agreements and supporting 
security and background investigations for potential personal identity 
credential issuance in compliance with U.S. laws and regulations 
governing physical and logical access to federal facilities and 
information resources. Due to the increasing diversity of foreign 
national participation in departmental programs, considerable efforts 
have been made to baseline requirements as a means to define uniform 
program standards as well as to expand current guidance beyond foreign 
visitor control to manage emerging risks associated with physical and 
logical access to the Department' s facilities and resources.
    Affected Public: Individuals and households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    This information collection request may be viewed at 
www.reginfo.gov. Follow the instructions to view the Department of 
Commerce collections currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be submitted within 30 days of the publication of 
this notice on the following website www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.
