We invite you to comment on the proposed information collections.
DATES:
OMB must receive written comments on or before December 7, 2026.
ADDRESSES:
Send any comments and recommendations on the proposed information collection in writing to

You can find this particular information collection by selecting “Currently under 30-day Review—Open for Public Comments” or by using the search function.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

or by telephone at 616-254-0405 with requests for additional information or copies of the proposed information collection and supporting statement.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), we invite the public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed information collections. We published a notice of proposed collection for these information collections on August 12, 2026 (91 FR 52085) and we received no comments. In the 60-day notice the respondents and burden hours were represented for three years. We've corrected those figures in this notice with the actual annual respondents and burden hours. We are therefore submitting the described information collections to OMB for approval.
If you have comments or suggestions, they should address one or more of the following points: (a) whether the proposed information collections are necessary for NARA to properly perform its functions; (b) our estimate of the burden of the proposed information collections and its accuracy; (c) ways we could enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information we collect; (d) ways we could minimize the burden on respondents of collecting the information, including through information technology; and (e) whether these collections affect small businesses.
In this notice, we solicit comments concerning the following information collection:

Abstract:
The Facility Access Media (FAM) Request, NA Form 6006, is completed by all individuals requiring recurring access to non-public areas of NARA's facilities and IT network (such as NARA employees, contractors, volunteers, NARA-related foundation employees, volunteers, interns, and other non-NARA federal employees, such as federal agency reviewers) herein referred to as “applicants,” in order to obtain NARA Facility Access Media (FAM). After approval of the request, the applicant is given a FAM, if approved, and is then able to access non-public areas of NARA facilities and IT network. The collection of information is necessary to comply with Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 12 requirements for secure and reliable forms of personal identification issued by federal agencies to their employees, contractors, and other individuals requiring recurring access to non-public areas of government facilities and information services. This form was developed to comply with this requirement.
