SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
FAR Subpart 50.1 prescribes policies
and procedures that allow contracts to
be entered into, amended, or modified
in order to facilitate national defense
under the extraordinary emergency
authority granted under 50 U.S.C. 1431
et seq. and Executive Order (EO) 10789
dated November 14, 1958, et seq. In
order for a contractor to be granted relief
under the FAR, specific evidence must
be submitted which supports the firm’s
assertion that relief is appropriate and
that the matter cannot be disposed of
under the terms of the contract.
The information is used by the
Government to determine if relief can be
granted under FAR and to determine the
appropriate type and amount of relief.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
The annual reporting burden is not
changed from what was published in
the Federal Register at 74 FR 48744, on
September 24, 2009. Based on
coordination with subject matter experts
and consideration of the requirements
for estimating the burden within the
Paperwork Burden Act, the
determination was made to not revise
the annual reporting burden. However,
at any point, members of the public may
submit comments for further
consideration, and are encouraged to
provide data to support their request for
an adjustment.
The annual reporting burden is
estimated as follows:
Respondents: 100.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Total Responses: 100.
Hours per Response: 16.
Total Burden Hours: 1,600.
Obtaining Copies of Proposals:
Requester may obtain a copy of the
information collection documents from

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES
Administration for Children and
Families
Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
Title: Measure Development: Quality
of Family-Provider Relationships in
Early Care and Education.
OMB No.: New Collection
The Office of Planning, Research and
Evaluation (OPRE), the Administration
for Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), is proposing a data
collection activity as part of the
development of an early care and
education (ECE) quality measurement
tool to assess family-provider
relationships that support positive child
developmental outcomes and family
wellbeing. The major goal of this project
is to develop a measure of the quality
of family-provider relationships that
will be (1) applicable across multiple
types of early care and education
settings and diverse program structures
(including Head Start/Early Head Start);
(2) sensitive across cultures associated
with racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic
characteristics; and (3) reliable in both
English and Spanish. At this time, four
self-administered surveys (one for
center- and home-based child care
directors, one for child care providers/
teachers, and two for parents) have been
developed, based on a literature review,
a review of existing measures, and
information collected through focus
groups (under OMB Clearance 0970–
0356) and cognitive interviews (under
OMB Clearance 0970–0355). To test
these measures, two stages of data
collection activities are proposed for
this information collection request: a
pilot test and a field test.
The pilot test data will be used to
examine the distribution of the items
and to determine whether they behave
in a manner consistent with the
conceptual model that was developed as
part of the project. The pilot test will
also test data collection procedures
prior to conducting a large-scale field
test. Any problematic items or
procedures identified by the pilot test
will be corrected and revisions
submitted to OMB before the field test.
The purpose of the field test is to
obtain sufficient data on a diverse
population to enable full psychometric
testing of the measures and compare
subgroups to ensure that the measure
can be used in diverse ECE settings.
Respondents: Directors of centerbased child care programs, home-based
child care programs, Early Head Start
programs, and Head Start programs;
center-based and home-based child care
providers and ECE teachers; and parents
whose children are enrolled in these
diverse-types of ECE settings.
