(703)697-1321. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: *Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:* Application for Army Radiation Permit; OMB Control Number 0702-0109. *Needs and Uses:* The Department of the Army must collect information to process applications for Army Radiation Permits (ARPs). This collection is necessary to ensure the safe use, storage, or possession of ionizing radiation sources by non-Army entities on an Army installation, as required by 32 CFR 655.10. The permit system is essential for protecting military personnel, civilian employees, and the public from potential radiation exposure. The information is used by the garrison commander to evaluate an applicant's request for an ARP. The application requires the entity to describe the purpose of the radiation source, provide qualifications of operating personnel, submit safety and storage procedures, and show evidence of a valid use authorization. This allows the commander to ensure the applicant can handle the radioactive materials safely and in accordance with all regulations. The respondents are non-Army entities, including civilian contractors, seeking to bring ionizing radiation sources onto an Army installation for a DoD-related activity. Without this information collection, the Army would be unable to maintain cognizance over radioactive sources on its installations, hindering the ability to prepare emergency responders and ensure the overall safety and security of the installation. *Affected Public:* Business or other for-profit. *Annual Burden Hours:* 470. *Number of Respondents:* 235. *Responses per Respondent:* 1. *Annual Responses:* 235. *Average Burden per Response:* 2 hours. *Frequency:* On occasion. Dated: April 1, 2026. Aaron T. Siegel, Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense. [FR Doc. 2026-06579 Filed 4-3-26; 8:45 am]
