SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    This collection of information involves nine miscellaneous 
activities described in section 758 of the Export Administration 
Regulations (EAR) that are associated with the export of items 
controlled by the Department of Commerce. Most of these activities do 
not involve submission of documents to BIS but instead involve exchange 
of documents among parties in the export transaction to insure that 
each party understands its obligations under U.S. law. Others involve 
writing certain export control statements on shipping documents or 
reporting unforeseen changes in shipping and disposition of exported 
commodities. These activities are needed by the BIS's Office of Export 
Enforcement and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection to document 
export transactions, enforce the EAR and protect the National Security 
of the United States.

II. Method of Collection

    Submitted electronically or on paper.
