ACTION: Notice and request for comments regarding a proposed extension
of an approved information collection requirement.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, DoD
announces the proposed extension of a public information collection
requirement and seeks public comment on the provisions thereof. DoD
invites comments on: whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of DoD, including
whether the information will have practical utility; the accuracy of
DoD's estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection;
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the information
collection on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. The
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved this information
collection for use under Control Number 0704-0225 through July 31,
2023. DoD proposes that OMB approve an extension of the information
collection requirement, to expire three years after the approval date.

252.204-7000, Disclosure of Information, in contracts that require the
contractor to access or generate unclassified information that may be
sensitive and inappropriate for release to the public. The clause
requires the contractor to obtain approval of the contracting officer
before release of any unclassified contract-related information outside
the contractor's organization, unless the information is already in the
public domain. In requesting this approval, the contractor must
identify the specific information to be released, the medium to be
used, and the purpose for the release. Upon receipt of a contractor's
request, the Government reviews the information provided by the
contractor to determine if it is sensitive or otherwise inappropriate
for release for the stated purpose.
