NARA will permit the public and other
Federal agencies to use its official seal(s) and/or logo(s). The
first criterion for approval is that NARA must be participating in
the event or activity by providing speakers, space, or other
similar services (example: NARA co-sponsoring a symposium or
conference). The second criterion is that the seal(s) and/or
logo(s) must not be used on any article or in any manner that
reflects unfavorably on NARA or endorses, either directly or by
implication, commercial products or services, or a requestor’s
policies or activities. Individuals and organizations wishing to
use NARA’s official seal(s) and/or logo(s) must request, in
writing, permission from NARA. The purpose of this information
collection is to allow NARA to approve only those requests that
comply with NARA regulations and to ensure appropriate use of the
official NARA seal(s) and logo(s).
There is a change to the number
of respondents and annual burden hours because of an increase in
requests due to the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
program ramping up, and a decrease in the time due to a change from
written/mailed requests to emailed ones.
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
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
