DEFENSE INDUSTRIAL BASE ASSESSMENT:
U.S. SPACE INDUSTRY

SCOPE OF ASSESSMENT
The U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), Office of Technology
Evaluation, in coordination with the Defense Science Board (DSB) Task Force on the Space
Industrial Base, is conducting a study of the U.S. space industry. Also participating in this joint effort
are representatives from the U.S. Air Force, the National Security Space Office (NSSO), the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration
(NASA), and others. The principal goal of this data collection is to analyze the health and
competitiveness of the space industry in terms of industrial, financial, and economic performance.
This includes an analysis of the effects of foreign competition and export controls on the industry’s
ability to meet the demand of defense and commercial markets.

RESPONSE TO THIS SURVEY IS REQUIRED BY LAW
A response to this survey is required by law (50 U.S.C. app. Sec. 2155). Failure to respond can result in a maximum fine
of $10,000, imprisonment of up to one year, or both. Information furnished herewith is deemed confidential and will not be
published or disclosed except in accordance with Section 705 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended (50
U.S.C App. Sec. 2155). Section 705 prohibits the publication or disclosure of this information unless the President
determines that its withholding is contrary to the national defense. Information will not be shared with any nongovernment entity, other than in aggregate form. The information will be protected pursuant to the appropriate
exemptions from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), should it be the subject of a FOIA request.
Not withstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to nor shall a person be subject to a penalty
for failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless
that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.

BURDEN ESTIMATE AND REQUST FOR COMMENT
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 11 hours per response, including the time
for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing
and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this
collection of information to BIS Information Collection Officer, Room 6883, Bureau of Industry and Security, U.S.
Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C. 20230, and to the Office of Management and Budget, Paperwork Reduction
Project (OMB Control No. ---- ----), Washington, D.C. 20503.
