    Abstract of proposed collection:
    The Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), Bureau of 
Political-Military Affairs, U.S. Department of State, in accordance 
with the Arms Export Control Act (AECA) (22 U.S.C. 2751 et seq.) and 
the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) (22 CFR parts 120-
130), has the principal missions of taking final action on license 
applications and other requests for defense trade transactions via 
commercial channels, ensuring compliance with the statute and 
regulations, and collecting various types of reports. By statute, 
Executive Order, regulation, and delegation of authority, DDTC is 
charged with controlling the export and temporary import of defense 
articles, the provision of defense services, and the brokering thereof, 
which are covered by the U.S. Munitions List.
    ITAR Sec. Sec.  122.4 and 129.8 requires registrants to notify DDTC 
in the event of a change in registration information or if the 
registrant is a party to a merger, acquisition, or divestiture of an 
entity producing or marketing ITAR-controlled items. Based on certain 
conditions enunciated in the ITAR, respondents must notify DDTC of 
these changes at differing intervals--no less than 60 days prior to the 
event, in the event that a foreign person is acquiring a registered 
entity, and/or within 5 days of its culmination. This information is 
necessary for DDTC to ensure registration records are accurate and to 
determine whether the transaction is in compliance with the regulations 
(e.g. with respect to ITAR Sec.  126.1); assess the steps that need to 
be taken with respect to existing authorizations (e.g. transfers); and 
to evaluate the implications for U.S. national security and foreign 
policy.
    This information collection is estimated to take an average of 2 
hours to execute, and DDTC expects to receive approximately 1,700 
responses per year; therefore, the total burden for this collection 
will be 3,400 hours per year.
    Methodology:
    This information will be collected by DDTC's electronic case 
management system and respondents will certify the data via electronic 
signature.

    Dated: June 9, 2016.
Lisa Aguirre,
Managing Director, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, Department of 
State.
