    Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
    
        The Department of Commerce (DOC) has submitted to the Office of 
    Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for 
    collection of information under provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 
    Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
        Agency: Bureau of Export Administration (BXA).
        Title: Survey of Optoelectronics Industry to Assess the Current 
    Status of Optoelectronics R&D and Manufacturing in the U.S.
        Agency Form Number: None assigned.
        OMB Approval Number: None assigned.
        Type of Request: Approval of a new collection of information.
        Burden: 2,400 hours.
        Average Hours Per Response: 4.
        Number of Respondents: 600 respondents.
        Needs and Uses: This collection of information is needed to 
    complete an assessment of the current status of the U.S. 
    optoelectronics industry in such areas as production methods, 
    technological development, economic performance, and international 
    competitiveness. This survey is being initiated because a number of 
    U.S. industry associations involved in optoelectronics and optics 
    recently cited the need for a critical technology assessment of the 
    U.S. optoelectronics industry. The health of the U.S. optoelectronics 
    industry is particularly important because this technology has a number 
    of critical defense applications.
        Affected Public: Individuals, businesses or other for-profit and 
    not-for-profit institutions.
        Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory.
