Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Department of Defense has submitted to OMB for clearance, the 
following proposal for collection of information under the provisions 
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Title, associated form, and OMB number: United States Air Force 
Academy Application (Precandidate Questionnaire/PCQ); USAFA Form 149; 
OMB Number 0701-0087.
    Type of request: Reinstatement.
    Number of respondents: 11,000.
    Responses per respondent: 1.
    Annual responses: 11,000.
    Average burden per response: 24 minutes.
    Annual burden hours: 4,400.
    Needs and uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to obtain data on the candidate's high school academic background for 
use in determining eligibility and selection to the Air Force Academy. 
The information collected on this form is required by 10 U.S.C. 9346. 
The information is necessary in order to provide a preliminary

applicant's chances for admission.
    Affected public: Individuals or households.

    Respondent's obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
    OMB Desk Officer: Mr. Edward C. Springer.
    Written comments and recommendations on the proposed information 
collection should be sent to Mr. Springer at the Office of Management 
and Budget, Desk Officer for DoD, Room 10236, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503.
    DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. Robert Cushing.
    Written requests for copies of the information collection proposal 
should be sent to Mr. Cushing, WHS/DIOR, 1215 Jefferson Davis Highway,
