AGENCY:

The DHS Office of the Chief
Procurement Officer will submit the
following Information Collection
Request (ICR) to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995. The information being collected
will be obtained from contractors as part
of their submissions whenever they file
a bid protest with DHS. The information
will be used by DHS officials in
deciding how the protest should be

SUMMARY:

Jkt 244001

Register on Wednesday, February 28,
2018 for a 60-day public comment
period. Seven unrelated comments were
received by DHS. The purpose of this
notice is to allow an additional 30 days
for public comments.
DATES: Comments are encouraged and
will be accepted until July 9, 2018. This
process is conducted in accordance with
5 CFR 1320.1.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget. Comments should be addressed
to OMB Desk Officer, Department of
Homeland Security and sent via
electronic mail to dhsdeskofficer@
omb.eop.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)
and 48 CFR Chapter 1 provide general
procedures on handling protests
submitted by contractors to Federal
agencies. FAR Part 33.103, Protests to
the agency, prescribes policies and
procedures for filing protests and for
processing contract disputes and
appeals. While the FAR prescribes the
procedures to be followed for protests to
the agency, it allows agencies to
determine the method of receipt. DHS
will utilize electronic mediums (email
or facsimile) for collection of
information and will not prescribe a
format or require more information than
what is already required in the FAR. If
DHS determines there is a need to
collect additional information outside of
what is required in the FAR, DHS will
submit a request to OMB for approval.
The information being collected will
be obtained from contractors as part of
their submissions whenever they file a
bid protest with DHS. The information
will be used by DHS officials in
deciding how the protest should be
resolved. Failure to collect this
information would result in delayed
resolution of protests.
Agency protest information is
contained in each individual
solicitation document, and provides the
specified contracting officer’s name,
email, and mailing address that the
contractors would use to submit its
response. The FAR does not specify the
format in which the contractor should
submit protest information. However,
most contractors use computers to
prepare protest materials and submit
time sensitive responses electronically
(email or facsimile) to the specified
Government point of contact. Since the
responses must meet specific
timeframes, a centralized mailbox or
website would not be a practical method

of submission. Submission of protest
information through contracting
officers’ email or through facsimile are
the best methods to use to document
receipt of protest information, and are
the methods most commonly used in
the Government protest process.
DHS/ALL/PIA–006 General Contact
Lists covers the basic contact
information that must be collected for
DHS to address these protests. The other
information collected will typically
pertain to the contract itself, and not
individuals. However, all information
for this information collection is
submitted voluntarily. Technically,
because this information is not retrieved
by personal identifier, no SORN is
required. However, DHS/ALL–021 DHS
Contractors and Consultants provides
coverage for the collection of records on
DHS contractors and consultants, to
include resume and qualifying
employment information. There is no
assurance of confidentiality provided to
the respondents.
The burden estimates are based upon
reports of protest activities submitted to
the Government Accountability Office
(GAO) or the Court of Federal Claims in
Fiscal Year 2016. No program changes
occurred, however, the burden was
adjusted to reflect an agency adjustment
increase of 4 respondents within DHS
for Fiscal Year 2016, as well as an
increase in the average hourly wage rate.
This is an Extension of a Currently
Approved Collection, 1600–0004. DHS
previously published this ICR in the
Federal Register on Wednesday,
February 28, 2018 at 83 FR 8687 for a
60-day public comment period, and is
soliciting public comment for another
30 days. OMB is particularly interested
in comments which:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
