USC 401 Name of Law: Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act
of 1974
There has been an increase in
the estimated annual burden hours previously reported for this
collection. An adjustment in annual burden is necessary at this
time in the amount of 1534 actions and hours. The initial annual
burden was based on a lower number of contract actions which
related to the fact that DHS was a new agency with consolidated
acquisition procedures, processes, and policies. Although, there is
an increase in the estimated burdened hours, there is no change in
the information being collected.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
