SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: War Risk Insurance, Applications and Related Information.
    OMB Control Number: 2133-0011.
    Type of Request: Renewal of a Previously Approved Information 
Collection.
    Abstract: The U.S. Government's War Risk Insurance program is a 
standby emergency program for national defense and national security. 
It becomes effective upon and simultaneously with the automatic 
termination of ocean marine commercial war risk insurance policies. 
Those policies are automatically terminated upon the outbreak of war, 
whether declared or not, between any of the five great powers (United 
States of America, United Kingdom, France, People's Republic of China, 
the Russian Federation) or upon the hostile detonation of a weapon of 
war employing atomic or nuclear fission.
    The War Risk Insurance program makes it possible for applicants to 
obtain war risk insurance from the U.S. Government when such insurance 
is unavailable on reasonable terms from the commercial market. The 
program is mutually beneficial to the United States and to the ship 
owner in that it assures continued flow of essential U.S. trade and 
provides protection for the ship owner from loss by risks of war.
    Respondents: Vessel owners or charterers interested in 
participating in MARAD's war risk insurance program.
    Affected Public: Vessel owners or charterers interested in 
participating in MARAD's war risk insurance program.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 20.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 20.
    Estimated Hours per Response: 12.8.
    Annual Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 256.
    Frequency of Response: Annually.


    Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1.93.
