SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
This is a request for an extension of
an existing information collection
requirement concerning the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) Control
Number 9000–0183, Preventing
Personal Conflicts of Interest for
Contractor Employees Performing
Acquisition Functions. The request uses
the burden hours provided in the
proposed FAR rule (2013–022).
The proposed rule expands the
coverage and proposes to amend the
FAR by implementing section 829 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2013 (Pub. L. 112–239) to
extend the limitations on contractor
employee personal conflicts of interest.
The limits on personal conflicts of
interest are being extended to: (1) The
performance of all functions that are
closely associated with inherently
governmental functions (not just
acquisition functions) and (2) contracts
for personal services (to the extent such
contracts are authorized by law, e.g.,
legal or medical services).
In the current information collection,
Section 841(a) requires the
Administrator for Federal Procurement
Policy to develop and issue a standard
policy to prevent personal conflicts of
interest by contractor employees
performing acquisition functions. The
policy is related to inherently
governmental functions, and an
associated personal conflicts-of-interest
clause or set off clauses.
Contractors are required to notify
contracting officers whenever they
become aware of any personal conflict
of interest violations by a covered

employee. The objective of the
notification requirement is to emphasize
the critical importance of integrity in
contracting and reduce the occurrence
of personal conflict-of-interest
violations by contractor employees
performing acquisition-related
functions.
In addition, contractors have the
opportunity, in exceptional
circumstances, to request mitigation or
waiver of the personal conflict-ofinterest standards. The information is
used by the Government to evaluate the
requested mitigation/waiver.
B. The Annual Reporting Burden
Estimated as Follows
Respondents: 188.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Total Responses: 188.
Hours per Response: 30.
Total Burden Hours: 5640.
The annual recordkeeping burden is
estimated as follows:
Recordkeepers: 9,361.
Hours per recordkeeper: 59.
Total recordkeeping hours: 552,299.
C. Public Comments
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.
Obtaining Copies of Proposals:
Requesters may obtain a copy of the
information collection documents from
