Abstract: This information collection associated with the forms are necessary in order to implement applicable parts of the Homeland Security Acquisition Regulation (HSAR) (48 CFR Chapter 30). The forms under this collection of information request are used by offerors, contractors, and the general public to comply with requirements in contracts awarded by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the information collected is used by contracting officers to ensure compliance with terms and conditions of DHS contracts. These forms will be used by contractors and/or contract employees during contract administration to collect the following: DHS Forms 0700-01, 0700-02 and 0700-03 are used to collect information when applicable and prior to contract closure to determine whether there are excess funds are available for deobligation versus remaining (payable) funds on contracts; assignment or transfer all rights, title, and interest to the Government; and release from liability. The contracting officer obtains the listed DHS Forms 0700-01, 0700-02 and 0700-03 from the contractor for closeout, as applicable. DHS Form 0700-04 is used by contractor employees for claims for unpaid wages.
