SUMMARY: In compliance with Section 3506(e)(2)(A) of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, the Department of the Army announces a proposed 
public information collection and seeks public comment on the 
provisions thereof. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of 
the burden of the proposed information collection; (c) ways to enhance 
the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; 
and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.
    Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49, Section 10721, allows the 
carrier industry to provide free or reduced rates to the Government for 
movement of personal property. Department of Defense requires 
Headquarters, Military Traffic Management Command to analyze and 
determine the reasonableness of rates for transportation and related 
services which are submitted voluntary by bid.

Rates and/or Charges for Domestic Transportation Services (DOD/USCG 
Sponsored HHG), MT-HQ FORM 43-R, OMB Control Number 0702-0018.
    Needs and Uses: DOD-approved household goods carriers file 
voluntary rates to engage in the movement of DOD and USCG sponsored 
shipments within CONUS. HQ MTMC evaluates the rates and awards traffic 
to low rate responsible carriers whose rates are responsive and most 
advantageous to the Government. The low rate carrier is offered 50% of 
the traffic at an installation and carriers that meet this rate share 
in the remaining 50%.
    Affected Public: Business or other for profit.
    Annual Burden Hours: 2,701.
    Number of Respondents: 1,268.
    Responses Per Respondents: 4.
