National Tracing Center Trace Request (OMB Number 1140–0043)

Paperwork Reduction Act Extension of a Currently Approved Information Collection

The proposed information collection pertains to ATF Form 3312.1 which is used by Federal, State, local and certain foreign law enforcement officials to request that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) trace firearms used or suspected to have been used in crimes.
