security of a major ally that is a force for
political stability and economic progress
in the Asia-Pacific region. It is vital to
U.S. national interests to assist Japan in
developing and maintaining a strong
and effective self-defense capability.
The proposed follow-on technical
support is critical to ensure Japan
Maritime Self Defense Force’s (JMSDF)
Aegis Destroyer fleet and JCPTS remain
ready to provide critical capabilities in
the defense of Japan. Japan’s AEGIS
Destroyers provide ship-based ballistic
missile defense capabilities and build
upon a longstanding cooperative effort
with the United States to provide
enhanced capability with a valued
partner in a geographic region of critical
importance to Japan and the United
States. Japan will have no difficulty
absorbing this support into its armed
forces.
The proposed sale of this equipment
and support will not alter the basic
military balance in the region.
The prime contractor will be
Lockheed Martin, Moorestown, NJ.
There are no known offset agreements
proposed in connection with this
potential sale.
Implementation of this proposed sale
will require the assignment of two
contractor representatives to Japan to
support the program.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness as a result of this
proposed sale.

Dennis.Smith@ee.doe.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Dennis Smith at Dennis.Smith@
ee.doe.gov or via 202–586–1791.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Comments
are invited on: (a) Whether the extended
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of DOE, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of DOE’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
The Department of Energy is
proposing to extend an information
collection pursuant to the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The approved
collection is being used for three Clean
Cities programmatic efforts. The first
initiative is the collection of information
for a voluntary plug-in electric vehicle
(PEV) questionnaire that assists
communities and DOE Clean Cities
coalitions in assessing the level of
readiness of their communities for
PEVs. The second effort is intended to
develop information that enables DOE
to review the progress of DOE’s National
Clean Fleets Partnership (Partnership).
The third effort is referred to as ‘‘Ride
and Drive Surveys’’. DOE is not
proposing to expand the scope of these
information collection efforts.
This information collection request
contains: (1) OMB No.: 1910–5171; (2)
Information Collection Request Title:
Clean Cities Vehicle Programs; (3) Type
of Review: Renewal; (4) Purpose: DOE’s
Clean Cities initiative has developed
three voluntary mechanisms by which
communities, certain fleets, and the
purchasing public can get a better
understanding of their readiness for
plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), and to
help DOE’s Clean Cities coalitions
prepare for the adoption of these
vehicles review their progress in doing
so. The voluntary PEV Scorecard is
intended to assist communities and the
coalitions in assessing the level of
readiness of their communities for
PEVs. The principal objectives of the
questionnaire are to provide
