Notice of Information Collection
National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA).
ACTION: Notice of information collection.
AGENCY:

The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections.
DATES: All comments should be
submitted within 60 calendar days from
the date of this publication.
ADDRESSES: All comments should be
addressed to Gatrie Johnson, National
Aeronautics and Space Administration,
300 E Street SW, Washington, DC
20546–0001.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or
copies of the information collection
instrument(s) and instructions should
be directed to Gatrie Johnson, NASA
Clearance Officer, NASA Headquarters,
300 E Street SW, JF0000, Washington,
DC 20546 or email Gatrie.Johnson@

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

This is a request for authorization to
collect information under the NASA
Federal Acquisition Regulation
Supplement (NFS) Clause, 1852.223–70,
Safety and Health Measures and Mishap
Reporting, formerly entitled ‘‘Safety and
Health.’’ While the clause is proposed to
be revised to eliminate some
information collected requirements, two
distinct information collection
requirements will remain 1) notification
of a Type A, B, C, or D Mishap, or a
close call as defined in NASA
Procedural Requirements (NPR) 8621.1
Mishap and Close Call Reporting,
Investigating and Recordkeeping, and 2)
quarterly reports specifying lost-time
frequency rate, number of lost-time
injuries, exposure, and accident/
incident dollar losses.
II. Methods of Collection
Electronic.
III. Data
Title: Safety and Health Measures and
Mishap Reporting.
OMB Number: 2700–0160.
Type of review: Renewal.
NSF clause 1852.223–70, Safety and
health measures and mishap reporting.
Under this clause, NASA contractors are
to immediately notify the contracting
officer when a mishap (Type A, B, C, D
or Close Call) occurs. The data the
contractors provide to NASA includes
incident location, date and time of
incident, number of fatalities if known,
number of hospitalized employees if
known, type of injury if known, type of
damage if known, contact person,
contact person phone, number, and brief
description of the incident.

NASA estimates that the notification
of a mishap will take a contractor
approximately 4 hours, counting initial
notifications, supervisory notifications,
and contracting officer notifications.
The chart below shows the number of
mishaps, by category, reported by NASA
contractors for calendar years 2013 and
2014. The Federal Procurement Data
System data for fiscal year 2015 shows
award of approximately 154 contract
actions involved performance on a
NASA facility.

The purpose of tracking mishaps is for
oversight of safety measures of current
contractors working on Federal facilities
and data for future source selections.
For purposes of calculating burden, we
estimate a given contractor may submit
two mishaps notifications in a year and
that this will take each notification
approximately 4 hours to collect the
information needed, review it, and
provide it to the contracting officer.
Generally, the contractor’s supervisory
personnel would collect the
information. It is likely the firm’s safety
manager or equivalent position would
review the information before
submitting it to the contracting officer.
NASA estimates that it will take a
contractor approximately 5 hours to
prepare and deliver the quarterly report.

Specialist would review the information

Generally, two labor categories will be
involved in the requirements of this
information collection: Occupational
Health and Safety Specialist and a
company supervisor or manager. The
Occupational Health and Safety
Specialist is estimated to be equivalent
to the mid-point (step 5) of the General
Schedule (GS) GS–12 with an hourly
rate of $33.39 (from the 2015 OPM GS
Salary Table). The manager/supervisor
is estimated to be equivalent to the midpoint for a GS–14 at an hourly rate of
$46.92. For both labor categories, the
overhead/burden rate of 36.25%, based
on the OMB-mandated burden rate for
A–76 public-private competitions, is
added (e.g., GS 12, Step 5 $33.39/hour
× 1.3625 = $45.49 burdened hourly rate.
For a manager/supervisor at a rate of
$46.92, the burdened hourly rate is
$63.03.

Estimated Summary of Annual Total
Cost to the Public of Information
Collection Reporting Burden:
Number of respondents: 154.
Responses per respondent: 6.
Total annual responses: 924.
Average number of hours per
response: 4.67.
Total hours: 4,312.
Rate per hour (average): $54.
Total annual cost to public: $232,848.
It is estimated that approximately 154
respondents will provide a total of 308
notifications of Type A, B, C, or D
Mishap, or Close Call notifications
(approximately 2 notifications per
respondent per year). Additionally, each
of 154 respondents will submit one
quarterly report four times a year. Thus,
responses from respondents are
estimated to include 2 mishap
notifications and 4 quarterly reports for

a total of 6 responses annually per
respondent. Based on these figures, the
combine total number of responses per
year for all respondents will be 308
mishap reports and 616 quarterly
reports for a total of 924 total responses
for all respondents. It is estimated to
take a respondent approximately 4
hours to gather the required information
and notify the contracting officer of a
Type A, B, C, or D Mishap or Close Call.
It is estimated to take respondents
approximately 5 hours to prepare and
submit each quarterly report specifying
lost- time frequency rate, number of
lost-time injuries, exposure, and
accident/incident dollar losses.
