SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: United States Naval Academy 
Sponsor Program; OMB Control Number 0703-0054.
    Needs and Uses: USNA Plebe Sponsor Program is a unique program 
offered through the Naval Academy that pairs midshipmen with faculty, 
staff, and local community area families to provide local support and a 
``home away from home'' for midshipmen that is mutually beneficial to 
both the midshipman and the sponsor. This information collection is 
needed to determine the eligibility and overall compatibility between 
sponsor applicants and fourth-class midshipmen at the USNA. In their 
first year, midshipmen desiring to participate in the program are 
assigned a sponsor from the local community area. An analysis of the 
information collected is performed by the Sponsor Program Officer in 
Charge to best match sponsor with a midshipman. Without this 
information collection, the sponsor program would not be able to 
determine if a sponsor family was ``safe'' to place a midshipman with 
nor appropriately match the interests of the midshipman with those of 
the sponsor family.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Annual Burden Hours: 800.
    Number of Respondents: 800.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 800.
    Average Burden per Response: 1 hour.
    Frequency: On occasion.
