the understanding that the Department will forward a copy of
regulatory Section 178.130(a)(2) (page 37) listing optional

not list race as a data element. This approval also includes the
February 10, 1995 version of Form 5300.35 which requests the alien
registration number. The Department should submit an Inventory
Correction Worksheet to correct the number of respondents and
responses consistent with item 13 of the narrative justification.
Item 13 explains the adjustment of -22868 as being due solely to a
decrease in the number of licensees and permittees.
