early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB
may amend or waive the requirement for public consultation to the
extent that public participation in the approval process would defeat
the purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal
law, or substantially interfere with any agency's ability to perform
its statutory obligations. The Leader, Information Management Group,

containing proposed information collection requests prior to submission
of these requests to OMB. Each proposed information collection, grouped

Summary of the collection; (4) Description of the need for, and
proposed use of, the information; (5) Respondents and frequency of
