SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
If it is in the best interest of the
Government, the contracting officer may
authorize cost-reimbursement
contractors to obtain, for official
purposes only, interagency fleet
management system (IFMS) vehicles
and related services. Before a
contracting officer may authorize costreimbursement contractors to obtain
IFMS vehicles and related services, the
contracting officer must have, among
other requirements: (1) A written
statement that the contractor will
assume, without the right of
reimbursement from the Government,
the cost or expense of any use of the
IFMS vehicles and services not related
to the performance of the contract; (2)
Evidence that the contractor has
obtained motor vehicle liability
insurance covering bodily injury and
property damage, with limits of liability
as required or approved by the agency,
protecting the contractor and the
Government against third-party claims
arising from the ownership,
maintenance, or use of an IFMS vehicle;
and (3) Considered any
recommendations of the contractor. The
information is used by the Government
to determine whether it is in the
Government’s best interest to authorize
a cost-reimbursement contractor, for
official purposes only, to use IFMS
vehicles and related services.
Authorized contractors shall submit
requests for IFMS vehicles and related
services in writing to the appropriate
GSA point of contact in accordance with
the FAR. Contractors’ requests for

vehicles or related services must
include: (1) Two copies of the agency
authorization; (2) The number of
vehicles and related services required
and period of use; (3) A list of
employees who are authorized to
request the vehicles or related services;
(4) A listing of equipment authorized to
be serviced; and (5) Billing instructions
and address.
Public comments are particularly
invited on: Whether this collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of functions of the Federal
Acquisition Regulations (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.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
The time required to read and prepare
information is estimated at 1 hour. Per
a data search in the Federal
Procurement Data System,
approximately 120 contracting agencies
awarded cost reimbursable contracts in
Fiscal Year 2012. Of these agencies, it is
estimated that approximately fifty
percent, or 60, contracting agencies may
utilize the IFMS to provide vehicles to
contractors for official purposes only.
We are not aware of a centralized
database which captures information on
agencies’ use of the IFMS for this
information collection; however,
agencies annually report motor vehicle
fleet data using the GSA Federal
Automotive Statistical Tool (FAST), a
web-based reporting tool cosponsored
by GSA and the Department of Energy.
Based on information in the Fiscal Year
2011 report, the estimate of 60
contracting agencies that may utilize the
IFMS to provide vehicles to contractors
is reasonable. It is estimated that an
average of 3 contractors per agency may
request to use the IFMS for a total of
approximately 180 requests per year.
The requests should be limited because
certain travel costs are allowable under
cost-reimbursement contracts, including
the costs of contractor-owned or -leased
automobiles. FAR 31.205–46(d)
provides that these costs are allowable,
if reasonable, to the extent that the
automobiles are used for company
business.

SUMMARY:
BILLING CODE 6820–EP–P
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES
Office of the Secretary
Notice of Interest Rate on Overdue
Debts
Section 30.18 of the Department of
Health and Human Services’ claims
collection regulations (45 CFR part 30)
provides that the Secretary shall charge
an annual rate of interest, which is
determined and fixed by the Secretary
of the Treasury after considering private
consumer rates of interest on the date
that the Department of Health and
Human Services becomes entitled to
recovery. The rate cannot be lower than
the Department of Treasury’s current
value of funds rate or the applicable rate
determined from the ‘‘Schedule of
Certified Interest Rates with Range of
Maturities’’ unless the Secretary waives
interest in whole or part, or a different
rate is prescribed by statute, contract, or
repayment agreement. The Secretary of
the Treasury may revise this rate
quarterly. The Department of Health and
Human Services publishes this rate in
the Federal Register.
The current rate of 101⁄8%, as fixed by
the Secretary of the Treasury, is certified
for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.
This rate is based on the Interest Rates
for Specific Legislation, ‘‘National
Health Services Corps Scholarship
Program (42 U.S.C. 250(B)(1)(A))’’ and
‘‘National Research Service Award
Program (42 U.S.C. 288(c)(4)(B)).’’ This
interest rate will be applied to overdue
debt until the Department of Health and
Human Services publishes a revision.
