*Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:* Defense User Registration System (DURS); OMB Control Number 0704-0546.
*Type of Request:* Extension.
*Number of Respondents:* 6,625.
*Responses per Respondent:* 1.
*Annual Responses:* 6,625.

*Needs and Uses:* The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) requires all eligible users to be registered for access to DTIC's repository of access-controlled scientific and technical information documents. This system is called the DURS. The registration of a user enforces validation of an individual's identity, as well as that individual's persona ( *i.e.,* whether the individual is DoD, Federal government, or a contractor supporting the DoD or another federal agency) and that individual's authority to access limited and classified documents with distribution controls. A role-based environment based on a user's identification ensures security for DTIC's electronic information collection while the online systems increase availability of information to each user based on his or her mission needs.
*Affected Public:* Individuals or Households; Business or Other For-Profit; Not-For-Profit Institutions.
*Frequency:* On occasion.
*Respondent's Obligation:* Voluntary.
*DOD Clearance Officer:* Mr. Reginald Lucas.
