agencies to comment on proposed information collections. NARA published 
a notice of proposed collection for this information collection on 
April 14, 1998 (63 FR 18234-18235). No comments were received. NARA has

functions of NARA; (b) the accuracy of NARA'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 collection of information on respondents, 
including the use of information technology. In this notice, NARA is 
soliciting comments concerning the following information collection:
    Title: Request for and Record of Pass.
    OMB number: 3095-0026.
    Agency form number: NA Form 6006.
    Type of review: Regular.
    Affected public: Individuals or households, business or other for-
profit organizations and institutions, and Federal Government.
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,266.
    Estimated time per response: 3 minutes.
    Frequency of response: On occasion (when respondent wishes to enter 
NARA facilities). Respondents who are contractors are given a building 
pass which expires at the end of each fiscal year; those who are 
volunteers are given a pass valid for 5 years.
    Estimated total annual burden hours: 64 hours.
    Abstract: The collection of information is necessary as a security 
measure to protect employees, information, and property in National 
Archives and Records Administration (NARA) facilities and to facilitate 
the issuance of passes. Use of the form is authorized by 44 U.S.C. 
2104. At the NARA College Park facility, individuals receive an access 
card with the pass that is electronically coded to permit access to 
secure zones ranging from a general nominal level to stricter access 
levels for classified records zones. The access card system is part of 
the security management system which meets the accreditation standards 
of the Government intelligence agencies for storage of classified 
information, and serves to comply with E.O. 12958.
