Application for Explosives License or Permit - ATF F 5400.13/5400.16 (OMB Number 1140–0070)

Action
Paperwork Reduction Act Extension Without Change of an Existing Information Collection
Purpose

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 requires agencies to publish proposed information collections in the Federal Register for public comment before an agency can use the process (generally a form) to collect information from the public. The proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on June 28, 2018. As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act, this notice provides 30 days for public comment on the extension of an existing collection. The proposed information collection pertains to Chapter 40, Title 18, U.S.C., and its requirement that any person engaged in the business of explosive materials as a dealer, manufacturer, or importer shall be licensed (18.U.S.C. 842 (a) (1)). In addition, provisions are made for the issuance of permits for those who wish to use explosive materials that are shipped in interstate or foreign commerce.
