POLICY JUSTIFICATION 

Iraq—Air Traffic Control and Landing 

System 

The Government of Iraq has requested 

a proposed sale of commercially 

available FAA Air Traffic Control (ATC) 

Equipment Suite and Airfield 

Navigational Aids Suites to be installed 

at four bases (Tikrit, Al Basra, Al Kut, 

and Taji). The ATC Equipment Suite 

includes 4 ASR–11 Airport Surveillance 

Radars, 10 ATC Automation system 

with 10 controller consoles, 4 AutoTrac 

II Airfield Support and Navigation 

Suites, 2 Primary Search Radars and 2 

Mono-pulse secondary surveillance 

radars. The Airfield Navigation Aids 

Suite includes 2 Very High Frequency 

Omni-directional Range (VORTAC) and 

3 Instrument Landing Systems with 

Distance Measuring Equipment, 2 

Airfield Lighting Systems with Flush 

Mounted Lights for the runway and 

taxiways, Air Traffic Control Tower 

Equipment Suite. Also provided are site 

surveys, system integration, installation, 

testing, repair and return, facilities, 

warranties, spare and repair parts, 

support equipment, personnel training 

and training equipment, publications 

and technical documentation, U.S. 

Government and contractor engineering 

and logistics support services, and other 

related elements of logistics and 

program support. The estimated cost is 

$700 million. 

This proposed sale will contribute to 

the foreign policy and national security 

of the United States by helping to 

improve the security of a strategic 

partner. This proposed sale directly 

supports the Iraq government and serves 

the interests of the Iraqi people and the 

United States. 

The proposed sale will contribute to 

Iraq’s continued efforts toward 

rebuilding its airfield systems at Tikrit, 

Al Basra, Al Kut, and Taji Air Bases for 

near-term basing of multiple aircraft. 

The renovations and upgrades to the 

airfields and systems will allow for 

greater ease in launch and recovery of 

aircraft and will enhance the overall 

sustainment to aircraft and affiliated 

systems. This equipment aids Iraq’s 

continuing reconstruction effort and 

directly improves Iraq’s ability to 

control its own airspace. 

The proposed sale of this equipment 

and support will not alter the basic 

military balance in the region. 

The principal contractor is unknown 

and will be determined through a 

competitive process. There are no 

known offset agreements proposed in 

connection with this potential sale. 

Implementation of this proposed sale 

will not require the assignment of any 

additional U.S. Government or 

contractor representatives to Iraq. 

There will be no adverse impact on 

U.S. defense readiness as a result of this 

proposed sale.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: FERC–603, Critical Energy 

Infrastructure Information Request 

OMB Control No.: 1902–0197 

Type of Request: Three-year extension 

of the FERC–603 information collection 

requirements with no changes to the 

current reporting requirements. 

Abstract: This collection is used by 

the Commission to implement 

procedures for gaining access to critical 

energy infrastructure information (CEII) 

that would not otherwise be available 

under the Freedom of Information Act 

(5 U.S.C. 552). On February, 21, 2003, 

the Commission issued Order No. 630 

(66 FR 52917) to address the appropriate 

treatment of CEII in the aftermath of the 

September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and 

to restrict unrestrained general access 

due to the ongoing terrorism threat. 

These steps enable the Commission to 

keep sensitive infrastructure 

information out of the public domain, 

decreasing the likelihood that such 

information could be used to plan or 

execute terrorist attacks. The process 

adopted in Order No. 630 is a more 

efficient alternative for handling 

requests for previously public 

documents than FOIA. The Commission 

has defined CEII to include information 

about ‘‘existing or proposed critical 

infrastructure that (i) relates to the 

production, generation, transportation, 

transmission, or distribution of energy; 

(ii) could be useful to a person planning 

an attack on critical infrastructure; (iii) 

is exempt from mandatory disclosure 

under the Freedom of Information Act, 

and (iv) does not simply give the 

location of the critical infrastructure. 

Critical infrastructure means existing 

and proposed systems and assets, 

whether physical or virtual, the 

incapacity or destruction of which 

would negatively affect security, 

economic security, public health or 

safety, or any combination of those 

matters. A person seeking access to CEII 

may file a request for that information 

by providing information about their 

identity and reason as to the need for 

the information. Through this process, 

the Commission is able to review the 

requester’s need for the information 

against the sensitivity of the 

information. Compliance with these 

requirements is mandatory. 

Type of Respondents: Persons seeking 

access to CEII. 

Estimate of Annual Burden 1: The 

Commission estimates the total Public 

Reporting Burden for this information 

collection as:
