Renewal of Department of Defense Federal Advisory Committees, 67694-67695 [2010-27714]

Download as PDF 67694 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 212 / Wednesday, November 3, 2010 / Notices Annual Burden Hours: 17,850. Number of Respondents: 51,000. Responses per Respondent: 1. Average Burden per Response: 21 minutes. Frequency: On occasion. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Renewal of Federal Advisory Committee. ACTION: Summary of Information Collection Respondents are representatives of Federal and non-Federal government agencies, community groups, non-profit organizations, and civic organizations requesting Department of Defense support for patriotic events conducted in the civilian domain. DD Forms 2535 and 2536 record the type of military support requested event data, and sponsoring organization information. The completed forms provide the Department of Defense the minimum information necessary to determine whether an event is eligible for military participation and whether the desired support is permissible and/or available. If the forms are not provided, the review process is greatly increased because the Department of Defense must make additional written and telephonic inquiries with the event sponsor. In addition, use of the forms reduces the event sponsor’s preparation time because the forms provide a detailed outline of information required, eliminate the need for a detailed letter, and contain concise information necessary for determining appropriateness of military support. DD–2535 responses (requests for aerial participation) will be submitted via an Internet web portal, reducing the time for the Department of Defense to process requests and providing the respondents the ability to monitor the status and disposition of their requests. DD–2536 responses requesting Department of Defense musical Units and musicians will also be submitted and processed using the Internet web portal. Use of the forms is essential to reduce preparation and processing time, increase productivity, and maximize responsiveness to the public. Dated: October 21, 2010. Patricia L. Toppings, OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
