SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), NARA invites the general public and other 
Federal agencies to comment on proposed information collections. We 
published a notice of proposed collection for this information 
collection on October 28, 2014 (79 FR 64219), and received no comments. 
We have thus submitted the described information collection to OMB for 
approval.
    In response to this notice, comments and suggestions should address 
one or more of the following points: (a) Whether the proposed 
information collection is necessary for NARA's proper performance of 
its functions; (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; (d) ways to 
minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including the use of information technology; and (e) whether small 
businesses are affected by this collection. In this notice, NARA 
solicits comments concerning the following information collection:
    Title: Request Pertaining to Military Records.
    OMB number: 3095-0029.
    Agency form number: SF 180.
    Type of review: Regular.
    Affected public: Veterans, their authorized representatives, state 
and local governments, and businesses.
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,028,769.
    Estimated time per response: 5 minutes.
    Frequency of response: On occasion (when respondents wish to 
request information from a military personnel record).
    Estimated total annual burden hours: 85,731 hours.
    Abstract: The authority for this information collection is 36 CFR 
1233.18. In accordance with rules issued by the Department of Defense 
(DOD) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS, U.S. Coast Guard), 
NARA's National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) administers veterans' 
military service records after discharge, retirement, or death. When 
veterans and other authorized individuals request information from, or 
copies of, documents in military service records, they must provide 
certain information about the veteran and the nature of the request. 
Federal agencies, military departments, veterans, veterans' 
organizations, and the general public use Standard Form (SF) 180, 
Request Pertaining to Military Records, to request information from 
military service records stored at NPRC. Veterans and next-of-kin of 
deceased veterans can also use eVetRecs (http://www.archives.gov/research_room/vetrecs/) to order copies.

    Dated: January 15, 2015.
Swarnali Haldar,
Executive for Information Services/CIO.
