    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Militarily Critical Technical Data Agreement, DD Form 2345, OMB Control Number 0704-0207.

    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary as a basis for certifying enterprises or individuals to have access to DoD export-controlled militarily critical technical data subject to the provisions of 32 CFR 250. Enterprises and individuals that need access to unclassified DoD-controlled militarily critical technical data must certify on DD Form 2345, Militarily Critical Technical Data Agreement, that data will be used only in ways that will inhibit unauthorized access and maintain the protection afforded by U.S. export control laws. The information collected is disclosed only to the extent consistent with prudent business practices, current regulations, and statutory requirements and is so indicated on the Privacy Act Statement of DD Form 2345.

    Affected Public: Individuals and households; businesses or other for profit; not-for-profit institutions.

    Annual Burden Hours: 2666.

    Number of Respondents: 8,000.

    Responses Per Respondent: 1.

    Average Burden per Response: 0.33 hours (20 minutes).

    Frequency: On occasion.

    Use of DD Form 2345 permits U.S. and Canada defense contractors to certify their eligibility to obtain certain unclassified technical data with military and space applications. Nonavailability of this information prevents defense contractors from accessing certain restricted databases and obstructs conference attendance where restricted data will be discussed. The form is available on the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Web page and DLA Logistics Information Services Web page.
