Abstract of Proposed Collection

    DDTC regulates the export and temporary import of defense articles 
and services enumerated on the USML 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). In 
accordance with ITAR Sec.  124.1, any person who intends to furnish 
defense services or technical data to a foreign person must submit a 
proposed technical assistance, manufacturing, or distribution license 
agreement and obtain prior authorization from DDTC for such agreement. 
Amendments to existing agreements must also be submitted for approval. 
The electronic mechanism utilized for submitting, reviewing, and 
approving agreement proposals is the Defense Trade Application Systems 
(DTAS). Specifically, this process utilizes the DSP-5 license 
application as the primary instrument or ``vehicle'' for transmitting 
agreements and their respective amendments from one phase of the 
adjudication process to the next.

Methodology

    Respondents will submit information as attachments to relevant 
license applications or requests for other approval.

Anthony M. Dearth,
Chief of Staff (Acting), Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, U.S. 
Department of State.
