The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) of the Department of Justice is proposing an information collection regarding the records related to the importation, storage, and use of explosives. They aim to ensure safety and accountability by tracking daily activities of businesses dealing with explosives under Title 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40. The public and affected agencies are encouraged to provide comments on the necessity, accuracy, and burden of this collection within 60 days. It is estimated that 9,411 respondents will participate annually, with each taking approximately 12.6 hours to maintain these records.
Simple Explanation
The ATF wants to know what happens when businesses use or store explosives, like firecrackers, to keep everyone safe. They want people's feedback on how easy it is to give them this information and estimate that each business will spend about 12.6 hours a year on it.
