    Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), DoD announces the 
    proposed extension of a 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 DoD, including whether the information 
    will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 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 the use of automated collection techniques or 
    other forms of information technology. This information collection 
    requirement is currency approved by the Office of Management and Budget 
    (OMB) for use through June 30, 1998, under OMB Control Number 0704-
    0363. DoD proposes that OMB extend its approval for use through June 
    30, 2001.

    20, 1998.

        Title, Associated Forms, and Associated OMB Control Number: Defense 
    Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS); OMB Control Number 
    0704-0363. Reporting, Redistribution, and Disposal of Contractor 
    Inventory--245.73; Sale of Surplus Contractor Inventory and Related 
    Clause at 252.245-7XXX, Demilitarization and Trade Security Controls.
        Needs and Uses: The collection of this information is necessary to 
    help eliminate the flow of DoD hardware and technology to prohibited 
    overseas destinations and persons. The information is used by inventory 
    managers, plant clearance officers, contracting officers, law 
    enforcement agencies, and contractors to ensure that military property 
    is demilitarized to preclude its use for its originally intended 
    military or lethal purpose.
        Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit organizations; and 
    not-for-profit institutions.
        Annual Burden Hours: 56,250 (Including 33,750 recordkeeping hours).
        Number of Respondents: 1,125.
        Responses Per Respondent: 10.
        Annual Responses: 11,250.
        Average Burden Per Response: 5 hours per response.
        Frequency: On occasion.
        Summary of Information Collection: The information collection 
    includes the requirements of DFARS Subpart 245.73; Sale of Surplus 
    Contractor Inventory, and the related clause proposed for inclusion in 
    the DFARS at 252.245-7XXX, Demilitarization and Trade Security Controls 
    (62 FR 30832, June 5, 1997). The proposed clause requires the 
    contractor, for items that were furnished to the contractor by the 
    Government, to enter demilitarization codes in the item description on 
    inventory schedules that report excess Government property requiring 
    demilitarization and/or trade security controls; and for other excess 
    Government property, requires the contractor to assign and enter 
    demilitarization codes in the item description on inventory schedules 
    that report excess Government property requiring demilitarization and/
    or trade security controls.
