The next time
DOE submits this clearance for OMB review, it will outline the
progress that has been made toward removing the 12 security related
forms that have historically been included under this clearance but
that may no longer be used by DOE. Before any of those 12 forms can
be removed from this clearance, DOE must provide reasonable
assurance that they are not being used by the agency, or, if they
are, that they are covered under a separate OMB clearance. Until
such time as that reasonable assurance is provided, the burden
hours for those forms will be included under this clearance.
