The information collection requirements contained in this interim final rule are approved for nine months, through September 30, 1989, pending the Department's review of comments received and any information collection requirements in the final rule should be submitted to OMB prior to the publication of the final rule, and should respond to the comments submitted by Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) in the letters of 1/27/89. Additionally, the Department should re-assess the estimated burden associated with these collections. Current estimates appear understated. -- See Proprietary Industries Association (PIA) comments of 1/11/89.
