I. Abstract

The purpose of the

Telecommunications and Information

Infrastructure Assistance Program

(TIIAP) is to promote the widespread

and efficient use of advanced

telecommunications services in the

public and non-profit sectors to serve

America’s communities. It does this by

providing matching funds to public and

non-profit sector organizations to use

information infrastructure to provide

community-wide information, health,

life-long learning, public safety and

other public services.

As part of the TIIAP’s process to

select projects for funding, external

experts are used to review applications.

Collection of information about

potential reviewers is used to determine

their eligibility and availability and to

facilitate payment for services rendered

if they are selected to review.

II. Method of Collection

The reporting requirements associated

with this request have been updated

annually during the four year history of

the TIIAP program. The collection

continues to be by mail with some

supplementary information received via

facsimile.

is necessary for the proper performance

of the functions of the program,

COMMITTEE FOR THE

IMPLEMENTATION OF TEXTILE

AGREEMENTS

Announcement of Public Comment

Period on the Elimination of the Paper

Visa Requirement for Taiwan

June 3, 1998.

AGENCY: Committee for the

Implementation of Textile Agreements

(CITA).

ACTION: Seeking public comments on the

elimination of the paper visa

requirement for Taiwan.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lori

Mennitt, Office of Textiles and Apparel,

U.S. Department of Commerce, (202)

482–3821.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority: Section 204 of the Agricultural

Act of 1956, as amended (7 U.S.C. 1854);

Executive Order 11651 of March 3, 1972, as

amended.

The Electronic Visa Information

System (ELVIS) allows foreign

governments to electronically transfer

shipment information to the U.S.

Customs Service on textile and apparel

shipments subject to bilateral

provisions. On November 9, 1995, a

notice was published in the Federal

Register (60 FR 56576) seeking public

comments on the implementation of

ELVIS. Subsequently, a document

published on October 31, 1997 (62 FR
31448 Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 110 /Tuesday, June 9, 1998 / Notices

58943) announced that Taiwan, starting

on November 1, 1997, would begin an

ELVIS dual visa system test

implementation phase. This test phase

does not eliminate the requirement for

a valid paper visa to accompany each

shipment for entry into the United

States.

As a result of successful use of the

dual visa system, preparations are under

way to move beyond the current dual

system to the paperless ELVIS system

with Taiwan. However, goods exempt

from visa requirements will still require

a proper and correct exempt

certification.

The Committee for the

Implementation of Textile Agreements

is requesting interested parties to submit

comments on the elimination of the

paper visa requirement for Taiwan and

utilization of the ELVIS system

exclusively. Comments must be

received on or before August 10, 1998.

Comments may be mailed to Troy H.

Cribb, Chairman, Committee for the

Implementation of Textile Agreements,

room 3001, U.S. Department of

Commerce, 14th and Constitution

Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230.

The Committee for the

Implementation of Textile Agreements

has determined that this action falls

within the foreign affairs exception of

the rulemaking provisions of 5

U.S.C.553(a)(1).

Troy H. Cribb,

Chairman, Committee for the Implementation

of Textile Agreements.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary

Submission for OMB Review;

Comment Request

ACTION: Notice.

The Department of Defense has

submitted to OMB for clearance, the

following proposal for collection of

information under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

Chapter 35).

Title, Associated Forms, and OMB

Number: Defense FAR Supplement Part

204, Administrative Matters, and related

clauses at 252.204; DD Forms 2051 and

2051–1; OMB Number 0704–0225.

Type of Request: Extension.

Number of Respondents: 108,261.

Responses per Respondent: 1.

Annual Responses: 108,261.

Average Burden per Response: 0.60

hours.

Annual Burden Hours: 65,898.

Needs and Uses: This information

collection requirement pertains to

information that contractors must

submit to DoD to request release of

unclassified data that is not in the

public domain, or to provide or request

assignment of a contractor and

Government entity (CAGE) code. This

information is used by DoD to: (1)

control unclassified data that is

sensitive or otherwise inappropriate for

release for the contractor’s stated

purpose; and, (2) support efficient data

exchange among automated systems for

contract award, contract administration,

and contract payment by assigning a

unique code to each contractor doing

business with DoD. The Defense Federal

Acquisition Regulation Supplement

(DFARS), at 204.404–70(a), prescribes

the use of the clause at DFARS 252.204–

7000, Disclosure of Information, when

the contractor will have access to or

generate unclassified information that

may be sensitive and inappropriate to

release to the public. This clause

requires contractors to obtain

contracting officer approval to release

unclassified information outside of the

contractor’s organization unless the

information is already in the public

domain. In requesting such approval,

the contractor must identify the specific

information that will be released, the

medium that will be used, and the

purpose for the release. The

Government reviews the information

provided by the contractor to determine

if it is sensitive or otherwise

inappropriate for release for the stated

purpose. DFARS 204.602–70 prescribes

the use of the solicitation provision at

252.204–7001, Commercial and

Government Entity (CAGE) Code

Reporting, when CAGE codes for

prospective offerors are not available to

contracting officers. The provision

requires an offeror to submit as part of

its offer either a previously assigned

CAGE code, or to ask the contracting

officer to request a code from the

Defense Logistics Service Center. In the

latter case, the Government will obtain

a CAGE code for the offeror, if it is

selected for award, using the procedures

at DFARS 204.7202–1.

Affected Public: Business or Other

For-Profit; Not-For-Profit Institutions.

Frequency: On occasion.

Respondents Obligation: Required to

obtain or retain benefits.

OMB Desk Officer: Mr. Peter N. Weiss.

Written comments and

recommendations on the proposed

information collection should be sent to

Mr. Weiss at the Office of Management

and Budget, Desk Officer for DoD, Room

10236, New Executive Office Building,

Washington, DC 20503.

DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. Robert

Cushing.

Written requests for copies of the

information collection proposal should

be sent to Mr. Cushing, WHS/DIOR,

1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, Suite

1204, Arlington, VA 22202–4302.
