Reinstatement with changes of the SF-SAC (which expired on 08/31/2011) for use by auditors and auditees in meeting the information collection requirements of OMB Circular A-133, "Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations." The revised forms for 2010 and 2013 have been exposed for public comments through Federal Notices published in the Federal Regiater.
This is an emergency request to reinstate the data collection form revisions (SF-SAC) for reporting on audits of States, local governments and nonprofit organizations. The form revisions are for the 2010 Form and 2013 Form. OFFM requests to wave notice and comment on the revised form as we have previously exposed the revised forms for public notice for comments on March 30, 2010 (75 FR 15422) for the 2010 form and on May 9, 2013 (8 FR 27259) and on November 13, 2013 (78 FR 69451) for the 2013 form.
Both forms are need to be active as grantees use specific form depending on the audit years. Form 2010 is used audit periods 2011 and 2012. Form 2013 is used for audit periods 2013, 2014 and 2015.
There is burden increase due to the increase of number of grantees expending more than $500,000 in federal expenditures, thus are required to perform a Single Audit and submitting this form.
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).

(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.
