POLICY JUSTIFICATION mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES The Republic of Korea (ROK) has requested a possible sale of 3 Aegis Shipboard Combat Systems, 3 MK–41 Vertical Launching Systems, 3 Common Data Link Management Systems, 3 AN/ UPX–29(V) Identification Friend or Foe Interrogators, spare and repair parts, support equipment, publications and technical documentation, personnel training and training equipment, tool and test equipment, U.S. Government and contractor technical, engineering, and logistics support services, and other related elements of logistics support. The total estimated cost is $1.91 billion. This proposed sale will contribute to the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States by meeting the legitimate security and defense needs of an ally and partner nation. The ROK is one of the major political and economic powers in East Asia and the Western Pacific and a key partner of the United States in ensuring peace and stability in that region. It is vital to the U.S. interest to assist our Korean ally in developing and maintaining a strong and ready selfdefense capability. The Aegis Combat System will provide enhanced capabilities on the ROK’s naval ships to defend against possible aggression and protect sea lines of communications. Aegis is the keystone in the ROK Navy’s efforts to upgrade its shipboard combat and ballistic missile defense capability. The ROK will have no difficulty integrating this system into its armed forces. The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region. The principal contractors will be Lockheed Martin Maritime Systems and Training in Morristown, New Jersey; 18:39 Jun 22, 2015 Jkt 235001 to develop countermeasures which might reduce weapon system effectiveness or be used in the development of a system with similar or advanced capabilities. 5. A determination has been made that the recipient country can provide the same degree of protection for the sensitive technology being released as the U.S. Government. This sale is necessary in furtherance of the U.S. foreign policy and national security objectives outlined in the Policy Justification. 6. All defense articles and services listed in this transmittal have been authorized for release and export to the Republic of Korea. [FR Doc. 2015–15358 Filed 6–22–15; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 5001–06–P Transmittal No. 15–24 Republic of Korea—Aegis Combat System VerDate Sep<11>2014 Raytheon Company in Andover, Massachusetts; General Dynamics Armament Systems in Burlington, Vermont. Although offsets are requested, they are unknown this time and will be determined during negotiations between the ROK and contractors. Implementation of this proposal sale will not require any additional U.S. government or U.S. contractor personnel in Korea. However, U.S. Government or contractor personnel in-country visits will be required on a temporary basis in conjunction with program technical oversight and support requirements for approximately five years. There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.

ACTION: Proposed information collection and request for comments. AGENCY: BPA is seeking comments on a proposed submission to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance of a collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. BPA collects information from landowners or other members of the public who accept treated wood utility transmission poles. These poles are removed from the transmission system when they are no longer of use to BPA. The information collected will document and facilitate transfer of the poles, which minimizes BPA’s environmental liability. At the time of information collection, BPA also provides the recipients with consumer information regarding treated wood and use restrictions required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). SUMMARY: Comments must be received on or before August 24, 2015. ADDRESSES: Written comments may be submitted by mail to Christopher M. Frost, CGC–7, Bonneville Power Administration, 905 NE. 11th Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97232, or by email at IGLM@bpa.gov. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Additional information may be requested from Christopher M. Frost at the mailing address above or by email at IGLM@bpa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DATES: I. Abstract A recent internal audit of PRA compliance determined that this PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 35947 existing collection does not have an OMB number. BPA collects information from landowners or other members of the public who accept treated wood utility transmission poles. These poles are removed from the transmission system when they are no longer of use to BPA. The information collected will document and facilitate transfer of the poles, which minimizes BPA’s environmental liability. At the time of information collection, BPA also provides the recipients with consumer information regarding treated wood and use restrictions required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The relevant form, Form BPA F 4300.07d, collects the following information: Intended use for poles (fence post, retaining wall, or landscaping), acknowledgement of receipt of consumer information sheet, acknowledgement of use limitations, acknowledgement of wood treatment type (creosote, pentachlorophenol, copper napthanate, or other as specified), and name and contact information. No third party notification or public disclosure burden is associated with this collection. II. Request for Comments BPA requests that you send your comments to the location listed in the ADDRESSES section above. Your comments should address: (a) The necessity of the information collection for the proper performance of BPA’s functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of our estimate of the burden (hours and costs) of the collection of information; (c) Ways we could enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Ways we could minimize the burden of the collection of information, such as through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number. Comments may be made available to the public, including your address, phone number, and email address. You may request that we withhold your personally identifiable information, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. III. Data OMB Control Number: New.
