proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;

electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submission of responses.

    Abstract: Any licensee or permittee who has knowledge of the theft 
or loss of any explosive materials from his stock shall, within 24
