at 304-260-3683.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Written comments and suggestions from the 
public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of 
information are encouraged. Your comments should address one or more of 
the following four points:

--Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary 
for the proper performance of the functions of the Bureau of Justice 
Statistics, including whether the information will have practical 
utility;
--Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
--Evaluate whether and if so how the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected can be enhanced; and
--Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are 
to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submission of responses.

    Abstract: The form is used by ATF to notify licensees who go out of 
business and fail to submit their records in the prescribed time frame. 
The questions are simple and a return physical or email address is 
provided. The format is easy for the user to list the required 
information ATF needs to perform its function regarding laws and 
regulations. Upon receipt of this form, licensees are to submit their 
records to the ATF Out-of-Business Records or transfer them to an 
active FFL successor. Information collection (IC) OMB #1140-0036 is 
being revised to reflect minor changes in narrative text to articulate 
more clearly what out out-of-business records are required to be 
submitted, where they are to be submitted, and how they are to be 
submitted to the ATF OOBRC by OOB FFLs.
