Notice of Information Collection

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Notice of information collection.

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

SUMMARY: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, as part of 
its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, 
invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this 
opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing information 
collections, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

DATES: All comments should be submitted within 30 calendar days from 
the date of this publication.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to Gatrie Johnson, Mail 
Code JF000, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Washington, 
DC 20546-0001 or [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information or 
copies of the information collection instrument and instructions should 
be directed to Gatrie Johnson, NASA Clearance Officer, NASA 
Headquarters, 300 E Street SW, JF0000, Washington, DC 20546 or email 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    The information submitted by the public is a license application 
for those companies and individuals who wish to obtain a patent license 
for a NASA patented technology. Information needed for the license 
application in ATLAS may include supporting documentation such as a 
certificate of incorporation, a financial statement, a business and/or 
commercialization plan, a projected revenue/royalty spreadsheet and a 
company balance sheet. At a minimum, all license applicants must submit 
a satisfactory plan for the development and/or marketing of an 
invention. The collected information is used by NASA to ensure that 
companies that seek to commercialize NASA technologies have a solid 
business plan for bringing the technology to market.

II. Method of Collection

    NASA is participating in Federal efforts to extend the use of 
information technology to more Government processes via internet. NASA 
encourages recipients to use the latest computer technology in 
preparing documentation. Companies and individuals submit license 
applications by completing the automated form by way of the Automated 
Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS). NASA requests all 
license applications to be submitted via electronic means.

III. Data

    Title: Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS).
    OMB Number: 2700-XXXX.
    Type of review: New.
    Affected Public: Public and companies.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 360.
    Estimated Time per Response: 8.0 hours.

[[Page 51710]]

    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 2,880 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $169,920.

IV. Request for Comments

    Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
NASA, including whether the information collected has practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of NASA's estimate of the burden (including 
hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; (3) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including automated collection techniques 
or the use of other forms of information technology.
    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and included in the request for OMB approval of this information 
collection. They will also become a matter of public record.
