Naval Sea Systems Command Proposed Information Collection Under Paperwork Reduction Act
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) has announced a proposed public information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and is soliciting public comments. The notice invites feedback on whether the proposed data collection is necessary for the agency's proper functions and whether it offers practical utility. The public comment period covers four specific areas: the necessity and practical utility of the collection, the accuracy of NAVSEA's burden estimates on respondents, methods to enhance quality and clarity of collected information, and ways to minimize respondent burden through automation or other technology. This is a routine procedural notice required by federal law before any new or revised information collection can be approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The specific subject matter of the information collection is not detailed in this notice, indicating this is a preliminary public comment solicitation phase. Interested parties — including defense contractors, suppliers, and members of the public — are encouraged to submit comments to help shape the final scope and design of the information collection instrument.
