SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: ``Defense Security Service 
Industrial Security Review Data'' and ``Defense Security Service 
Industrial Security Facility Clearance Survey Data,'' OMB Control 
Number 0704-0427.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to assist in determining whether a contractor is eligible to establish 
its facility security clearance and/or retain its participation in the 
National Industrial Security Program (NISP). It is also the basis for 
verifying whether contractors are appropriately implementing NISP 
security requirements. These requirements are necessary in order to 
preserve and maintain the security of the United States through 
establishing standards to prevent the improper disclosure of classified 
information.
    In accordance with Department of Defense (DoD), 5220.22-R, 
``Industrial Security Regulation,'' DSS is required to maintain a 
record of the results of surveys and security reviews. Documentation 
for each survey and/or security review will be compiled addressing 
areas applicable to the contractor's security program. Portions of the 
data collected will be stored in databases. All data collected will be 
handled and marked ``For Official Use Only.''
