SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Innovative Readiness Training Community Application; OMB Control Number 0704-0583.

Type of Request: Revision.

Number of Respondents: 100.

Responses per Respondent: 1.

Annual Responses: 100.

Average Burden per Response: 5.5 hours.

Annual Burden Hours: 550 hours.

Needs and Uses: This information collection is necessary to support the DoD's Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) program. Each year the military collects voluntary applications from communities to participate in IRT missions. Communities respond to the collection as they will have a chance to receive incidental support and services from the DoD during the conduct of the IRT mission and training. Currently the majority of missions are in the form of civil engineering projects or medical care. IRT, however, is not limited to this, and any application is considered for its potential training value and incidental community benefit. This information allows the best possible match between the community and military training requirements while ensuring each applicant is eligible to receive support and services under 10 U.S.C. 2012.

Affected Public: State, local, and tribal governments.

Frequency: On occasion.

Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.

OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
