IV. Paperwork Reduction Act

The Paperwork Reduction Act applies because the rule modifies information collection requirements that have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq. However, the impact on existing approved information collection requirements (OMB clearance 0704-0229) is expected to be negligible.

In addition, this final rule contains a new information collection requirement that has received approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq. (OMB Clearance Number 0704-0475).

DoD did not receive any comments on the proposed information collection requirement.
