notice to the customer, in writing, about
furnishing this negative information.

In support of OMB’s continuing effort

whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to

ADDRESSES: Submit comments regarding

including suggestions for reducing this
burden, to the Regulatory Secretariat

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
GSA, on behalf of the Federal Grants
Streamlining Initiative, proposes to
issue a new standard form, the Real
Property Status Report (SF–XXXX). The
SF–XXXX will be used to collect
information related to real property
when required by a Federal financial
assistance award. The SF–XXXX
includes a cover page, an Attachment A
and Attachment B. The purpose of this
new form is to report real property
status or to request agency instructions
on real property that was or will be
provided or acquired, in whole or in
part, under a Federal financial
assistance award (e.g., grant, cooperative
agreement, etc.), including real property

that was improved (special
circumstances apply to improvements)
using Federal funds and real property
that was donated to a Federal project in
the form of a match or cost sharing
donation. The form does not create any
new reporting requirements. It does
establish a standard format for reporting
real property status under financial
assistance awards. It does establish a
standard annual reporting date of
September 30 to be used, if an award
does not specify an annual reporting
date. The standard form will replace any
agency unique forms currently in use to
allow uniformity of collection and to
support future electronic submission of
information.
Background
Public Law 106–107 requires the
OMB to direct, coordinate, and assist
Executive Branch departments and
agencies in establishing an interagency
process to streamline and simplify
Federal financial assistance procedures
for non-Federal entities. The law also
requires executive agencies to develop,
submit to Congress, and implement a
plan for that streamlining and
simplification. Twenty-six Executive
Branch agencies jointly submitted a
plan to the Congress in May 2001. The
plan described the interagency process
through which the agencies would
review current policies and practices
and seek to streamline and simplify
them. The process involved interagency
work groups under the auspices of the
U.S. Chief Financial Officers Council,
Grants Policy Committee. The plan also
identified substantive areas in which
the interagency work groups had begun
their review. Those areas are part of the
Federal Grants Streamlining Initiative.
This proposed form is an undertaking
of the interagency Post-Award
Workgroup that supports the Federal
Grants Streamlining Initiative.
Additional information on the Federal
Grants Streamlining Initiative, which
focuses on implementing the Federal
Financial Assistance Management
Improvement Act of 1999 (Public Law
106–107), is set forth in the Federal
Register published on September 13,
2006 (71 FR 54098). An overview of the
SF–XXXX and five other report forms
being developed under the Initiative
was provided during a webcast of the
Grants Policy Committee of the U.S.
Chief Financial Officer Council held on
March 8, 2007 (72 FR 7090, February 14,
2007).
