the general public and other Federal agencies with an opportunity to 
comment on new, proposed, revised, and continuing collections of 
information. This helps us assess the impact of our information 
collection requirements and minimize the public's reporting burden. It 
also helps the public understand our information collection 
requirements and provide the requested data in the desired format.
    We are soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is described 
below. We are especially interested in public comment addressing the 
following issues: (1) is the collection necessary to the proper 
functions of the agency; (2) will this information be processed and 
used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) 
how might the agency enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (5) how might the agency minimize the 
burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use 
of information technology.
    Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of 
public record. We will include or summarize each comment in our request 
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before
