SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (Pub. L.
109-282, as amended by section 6202(a) of Pub. L. 110-252), known as
FFATA or the Transparency Act, requires information disclosure of
entities receiving Federal financial assistance through Federal awards
such as Federal contracts, sub-contracts, grants and sub-grants, FFATA
2(a), (2), (i), (ii). The system that collects this information is
called the FFATA Sub-award Reporting System (FSRS, www.fsrs.gov). This
information collection requires information necessary for prime awardee
registration in FSRS to create a user log-in and enable sub-award
reporting for their entity. To register in FSRS for a user log-in, an
entity is required to provide their Data Universal Numbering System
(DUNS) number. FSRS then pulls core data about the entity from their
System for Award Management (SAM) registration to include the legal
business name, physical address, mailing address
[[Page 66983]]
and Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code. The entity completes
the FSRS registration by providing contact information within the
entity for approval.
If a prime awardee has already registered in FSRS to report
contracts-related Transparency Act financial data, a new log-in will
not be required. In addition, if a prime awardee had a user account in
the Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), a new log-in will
not be required.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Respondents: 2,662.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Total annual responses: 2,662.
Hours per Response: .5.
Total Burden Hours: 1,331.
C. Public Comments
Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this
collection of information is necessary, whether it will have practical
utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection
of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and
methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and ways in which we can minimize the
burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond,
through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requesters may obtain a copy of the
information collection documents from the General Services
Administration, Regulatory Secretariat Division (MVCB), 1800 F Street
NW, Washington, DC 20405, telephone 202-501-4755. Please cite OMB
