This form will be used to determine
the capability of U.S. commercial shipyards in relationship to
their ability to support current and emergent national maritime
transportation needs as well as the ability to support the needs of
the U.S. Navy's current and future shipbuilding programs. The
Maritime Administrator and the U.S. Navy require this information
to support their respective efforts in maintaining an up to date
measurement of the shipbuilding industry in the United
States.
This is a renewal, with change,
of a previously approved collection that has expired. The burden
was underestimated during the last iteration of this collection and
the increase is to account for that underestimation.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
