SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The purpose of this collection is to gather information to mitigate
variances in foreign access management program implementation and
registration information requirements needed to reach risk-based
determinations of physical and logical access by foreign national
visitors and guests to Commerce facilities and resources. Due to the
increasing diversity of foreign national participation in departmental
programs, considerable efforts have been made to baseline requirements
as a means to define uniform program standards as well as to expand
current guidance beyond foreign visitor control to manage emerging
risks associated with physical and logical access to the Department' s
facilities and resources.
