AGENCIES: Department of Defense (DOD),

and National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA).
ACTION: Notice of request for public
comments regarding an extension to an
existing OMB clearance (9000–0026).
SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Federal
Acquisition Regulation (FAR),
Regulatory Secretariat will be
submitting to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) a request to review
and approve an extension of a currently
approved information collection
requirement concerning change order
accounting. This OMB clearance expires
on May 31, 2009.
Public comments are particularly
invited on: Whether this collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of functions of the FAR,
and 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.
DATES: Submit comments on or before
June 23, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments regarding
this burden estimate or any other aspect
of this collection of information,

estimated cost of a change or series of
related changes exceed $100,000, the
contracting officer may require the
contractor to maintain separate accounts
for each change or series of related
changes. The account shall record all
incurred segregable, direct costs (less
allocable credits) of work, both changed
and unchanged, allocable to the change.
These accounts are to be maintained
until the parties agree to an equitable
adjustment for the changes or until the
matter is conclusively disposed of under
the disputes clause. This requirement is
necessary in order to be able to account
properly for costs associated with
changes in supply and research and
development contracts that are
technically complex and incur
numerous changes.
