SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: The Contractor Manpower
Reporting System; OMB Control
Number 0702–0120.
Needs and Uses: This program greatly
enhances the ability of the Army to
identify and track its contractor
workforce. Current systems do not have
contractor manpower data that is
collected by the contractor Manpower
Reporting System—i.e., Direct Labor
Hours, Direct Labor Dollars, and
Organization supported. Existing
financial and procurement systems have
obligation amounts of an unknown mix
of services and supplies, and the
Department of the Army is not able to
trace the funding to the organization
supported. Like all other Federal
Government agencies, the Army’s
reliance on service contractor
employees has increased significantly
over the past few years.
Affected Public: Business or Other For
Profit.
Annual Burden Hours: 1,018.
Number of Respondents: 12,215.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Average Burden per Response: 5
minutes.
Frequency: Annually.
The Contractor Manpower Reporting
System represents a program aimed at
obtaining information regarding the use
of contractor employees by the Army.
Reliance on contractors in support of
military operations will continue and
likely grow. This guidance emphasizes
the fact that armed forces are deploying
and will deploy without a standard
means of tracking the contractor
workforce. Section 807 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2008 requires the Secretary of
Defense not later than a third quarter of
each fiscal year to submit to Congress an
annual inventory of the activities
performed during the preceding year
pursuant to contracts for services for or
on behalf of the Department of Defense.

Withdrawal of Notice of Intent To
Prepare an Environmental Impact
Statement
Department of the Army, U.S

AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice of withdrawal.
The purpose of this notice is
to inform the public that until the
economic demand for improvements to
the Sacramento River Deep Water
Channel (SRDWSC) improves, the NEPA
process has been terminated and notice
to prepare an EIS and notice of
availability are withdrawn.
SUMMARY:
Effective date of withdrawal is
October 25, 2014.

On June
13, 2008 (73 FR 33807), the United
States Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) in partnership with the Port of
West Sacramento (Port) announced its
intent to prepare a Draft Supplemental
Environmental Impact Statement/
Subsequent Environmental Impact
Report (DSEIS/R) in accordance with
the National Environmental Policy Act
of 1969 (NEPA) to evaluate the action of
resuming construction of navigational
improvements to the SRDWSC. On
February 25, 2011 (76 FR 10572),
USACE and the Port announced the
availability of the DSEIS/R. The DSEIS/
R evaluated the potential environmental
impacts associated with the proposed
Federal action and reasonable
alternatives. The purpose of the project
was to resume deepening of the
SRDWSC to its congressionally
authorized depth to realize economic
benefits resulting from transportation
cost savings associated with moving
goods to and from the Port. USACE and
the Port might resume the NEPA process
in the future should economic demand
for the project improve.
