Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 233 / Monday, December 5, 2011 / Notices
to submit SBIR research topics and
submit response to DHS SBIR
solicitations. Additionally, electronic
web portals are used to collect
unclassified white papers and proposals
to reduce the data gathering and records
management burden for BAAs.
In addition to issuance of solicitations
over the Internet or electronic systems;
increased use of oral presentations in
lieu of written proposals, permitted
under FAR 15.102; and increased use of
combined contract action notices/
requests for proposals, as encouraged by
FAR 12.603, are contributing to the
relative stability of DHS’s information
collection burden to the public. There is
no change in the information being
collected.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
which:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
