whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of

methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the

burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, 
through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    Military (and, as required, civilian agency) storage and 
distribution points, depots, and other receiving activities require 
advance notice of large shipments en-route from contractors' plants. 
Timely receipt of notices by the consignee transportation office 
precludes the incurring of demurrage and vehicle detention charges. The 
information is used to alert the receiving activity of the arrival of a 
large shipment.
    Respondents: 250.
    Responses per Respondent: 4.
    Annual Responses: 1,000.
    Hours per Response: .167.
    Total Burden Hours: 167.
    Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requesters may obtain a copy of the 
information collection documents from the General Services 
Administration, Regulatory Secretariat (MVPR), 1800 F Street, NW., Room 
4041, Washington, DC 20405, telephone (202) 501-4755. Please cite OMB
