SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: Pre-embarkation Certificate of
Disinsection, DD Form X773; OMB
Control Number 0704–XXXX.
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirement is necessary to
provide proof of aircraft disinsection to
foreign countries that require it, before
cargo and aircrew will be allowed to
dis-embark in those countries.

Average Burden per Response: 10

Frequency: On occasion.
Respondents are DoD-contracted pest
managers. These pest management
professionals would be required to fill
out the certificate of disinsection, log it
in the appropriate database, and provide
a copy to the aircrew. Aircraft
disinsection (spraying with insecticide
to kill all insects aboard) is currently
required in 14 countries for arriving
military aircraft. Most of those countries
also require documentation proving that
the aircraft was disinsected, per their
instructions in the Foreign Clearance
Guide (FCG). The burden for this
collection is calculated based on the
number of times U.S. aircraft currently
enter countries with the requirement to
produce a certificate of disinsection.
The certificates used, are unique to each
of the countries with the requirement.
They are not collections managed by the
U.S. Government. The Armed Forces
Pest Management Board (AFPMB)
published Technical Guide (TG) for pest
managers and aircrew to follow. This
guide standardizes our requirements for
disinsection in the FCG for all countries
our aircraft enter. One such requirement
is the use of a standardized form by all
DoD that satisfies the documentation
requirements of disinsection for these
14 countries.

strategic regional partner that has been,
and continues to be, an important force
for political stability and economic
progress in the Middle East.
The proposed sale will enable Saudi
Arabia and the Royal Saudi Naval Force
(RSNF) to maintain military
performance levels and provide an
increased ability to meet current and
future maritime threats. The training
will support the RSNF in its role
patrolling and providing protection for
critical industrial infrastructure and for
the sea lines of communications. The
RSNF will also use the training to
enhance interoperability with the
United States and other coalition
maritime forces. Saudi Arabia will have
no difficulty absorbing these services.
The proposed sale of this training will
not alter the basic military balance in
the region.
The prime contractor will be Kratos
Defense & Security Solutions of San
Diego, CA. There are no known offset
agreements in connection with this
potential sale.
Implementation of this proposed sale
will require the assignment of
approximately 88 contractor
representatives to Saudi Arabia for
approximately three years to support
personnel training. Implementation of
this sale will not require the assignment
of any additional U.S. Government
representatives to Saudi Arabia.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness as a result of this
proposed sale.

Needs and Uses: The information

(FVAP), an agency of the Department of
Defense, to fulfill the mandate of the
Uniformed and Overseas Citizens
Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA of 1986
[42 U.S.C. 1973ff]). UOCAVA requires a
statistical analysis report to the
President and Congress on the
effectiveness of assistance under the
Act, a statistical analysis of voter
participation, and a description of State/
Federal cooperation. The data obtained
through this study will allow FVAP to
refine its methodology for estimating the
number of overseas U.S. civilians who
are eligible to vote and who have
registered and participated in the past,
and using these estimates to address the
question of whether the registration and
voting propensity of the overseas
civilian population differs from that of
a comparable domestic or military
populations. Conducting this research
will help FVAP meet its federal and
congressional mandates in terms of
reporting annually on its activities and
on overall voter registration and
participation rates after each
Presidential election. The data obtained
through this study is also intended to
provide insights into existing barriers to
UOCAVA voting and recommendations
for addressing these challenges.
