Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Defense has submitted to OMB for clearance, 
the following proposal for collection of information under the 
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act.

DATES: Consideration will be given to all comments received by October 
21, 2015.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Fred Licari, 571-372-0493.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title, Associated Form and Omb Number: Middle East Focus Groups and 
Survey; OMB Control Number 0704-TBD.
    Type of Request: Emergency.
    Number of Respondents: 2000.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 2000.
    Average Burden per Response: 60 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 2000 hours.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is being 
submitted as an emergency. The primary objective of this research, 
broadly speaking, is to inform future U.S. government efforts in 
countering violent extremism, with the goal of the project being to 
better understand views of political activism in the Middle East and, 
more specifically, to identify factors that dissuade individuals from 
supporting violent extremist groups. The focus groups and surveys will 
identify what factors dissuade individuals from supporting violent 
extremist groups or inhibit support for violence more generally. The 
information collection will be initiated at a time of relative peace in 
Yemen, but this country has experienced active conflict since April 
2015 so the focus groups and survey must be administered at a time when 
some stability has returned to the country. Due to the fluid nature in 
the stability of the country, and the need to move quickly once a 
window of opportunity opens, the Department is bypassing the 60-day 
public comment period.
    Affected Public: Individuals and Households--Foreign Nationals.
    Frequency: One-time.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Omb Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
    Comments and recommendations on the proposed information collection 
should be emailed to Ms. Jasmeet Seehra, DoD Desk Officer, at 
[email protected]. Please identify the proposed information 
collection by DoD Desk Officer and the Docket ID number and title of 
the information collection.
