OFCCP is requesting OMB
approval of 1,331,803 hours in combined recordkeeping and reporting
burden for compliance with Executive Order 11246 by Federal and
federally assisted construction contractors. This compares with
2,491,396 hours for the last clearance request, a decrease of
1,159,593 hours. This change is due to an estimated decrease of
164,838 Federal and federally assisted construction contractor
respondents. OFCCP used 2010 data from the Federal Central
Contractor Registration to calculate the number of Federal and
federally assisted construction contractors for this Information
Collection Requirement.
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
