The agency is reminded that it should have in place an internal planning process so that completion of the public notification and comment period required by 5 CFR 1320 occurs prior to an information collection's expiration date and sufficiently prior to expiration dates to allow for a 60-day period of OMB review.

The Department reports on information gathered and compiled from its facilities nationwide on the usage of in-house printing and duplicating facilities as well as all printing procedures for external vendors.
Changes from the previously filed reports are due to recently discovered errors in previous filings. Specifically, the annual reporting and recording keeping burden figures previously reported at item 13 were incorrectly calculated based on both the number of respondents (162 should have been 322), and the estimated time required to complete and submit the reports (1,607 hours should have been 350.52). The recordkeeping and reporting costs had not previously been reported at item 14 of OMB Form 83-I because those costs had not previously been tracked.
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 and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
