3. Once GSA makes an announcement
for temporary closure, there is potential
for a high number of new offers before
the effective date of the temporary
closure. It is highly likely that nearly all
of these offers will not generate
business. What should GSA do with
offers received in this window?
4. To help industry best plan, should
GSA’s reassessment be conducted
annually, every two years, or every three
years? What actions can GSA take to
assist industry with planning? For
example, is it better to know with
certainty when a schedule or SIN will
reopen even if that means the duration
of closure is longer, or is it better for
GSA to take a shorter term view of the
question?
5. Currently, over 50 percent of
schedule contracts will not meet the
sales retention criteria. Is reducing this
percentage to 30 percent an
appropriately aggressive interim goal?
6. Are there other considerations on
how to ensure minimum impact to
industry with the implementation?

Proposed Project: Title: HHS 42 CFR subpart B; Sterilization of

Abstract: This is a request for extension of a currently approved
collection for the disclosure and record-keeping requirements codified
at 42 CFR part 50, subpart B (``Sterilization of Persons in Federally
Assisted Family Planning Projects''). The consent form solicits

undergoing sterilization in programs of health services which are

appended to the PHS regulation. In 2003, the PHS sterilization consent
form was revised to conform to OMB government-wide standards for the
collection of race/ethnicity data and to incorporate the PRA burden
statement as part of the consent form. There are no revisions to the
form.
