Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
AGENCY:
National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
ACTION:
Notice.
[top]
SUMMARY:
We have submitted a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval of a reinstatement of one information collection and renewal of three information collections. The reinstated information collection is prepared by companies and organizations that wish to digitize archival holdings with privately-owned equipment. The first renewal information collection is prepared by organizations that want to make paper-to-paper copies of archival holdings with their personal copiers at the National Archives at the College Park facility. The second renewal is used to advise requesters of the correct procedures to follow when requesting certified copies of records for use in civil litigation or criminal actions in courts of law, and the information to be provided so that records may be identified. The third renewal information collection is used when veterans, dependents, and other authorized individuals request information from or copies of documents in military personnel, military medical, and dependent medical records. We invite you to comment on the proposed information collections.
DATES:
OMB must receive written comments on or before June 30, 2023.
ADDRESSES:
Send any comments and recommendations on the proposed information collection in writing to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. You can find this particular information collection by selecting "Currently under 30-day Review-Open for Public Comments" or by using the search function.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), we invite the public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed information collections. We published a notice of proposed collection for this information collection on March 20, 2023 (88 FR 16670) and we received no comments. We are therefore submitting the described information collection to OMB for approval.
If you have comments or suggestions, they 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) our estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection and its accuracy; (c) ways we could enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information we collect; (d) ways we could minimize the burden on respondents of collecting the information, including through information technology; and (e) whether this collection affects small businesses.
