periodic summaries of proposed
projects to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and

this publication.
Proposed Collection: Conference,

Registration Generic Clearance (OD),
0925–New, National Institutes of Health
(NIH), Office of the Director (OD).
Need and Use of Information
Collection: The information collections
encompassed by this generic clearance
will allow the NIH to select the most
appropriate participants for non-grantee
activities sponsored, organized, and run
by the NIH staff, according to the type
and purpose of the activity. For
example, the NIH may develop an
application process or information
collection to select a limited number of
researchers to participate in a poster
session, identify speakers and panelists
with desired expertise on a specific
topic to be covered at a meeting, or
determine which researchers would
most likely benefit from a training
course or other opportunity. For the NIH
to plan and conduct activities that are
timely for participants and their fields
of research, it is often necessary for such
information to be collected with a
relatively short turnaround time. In
general, submitted abstracts or other
application materials will be reviewed
by an internal NIH committee
responsible for planning the activities.
This committee will be responsible for
selecting and notifying participants.
The information collected for these
activities generally includes title,
author(s), institution/organization,
poster size, character limitations along
with other requirements. This
information is necessary to identify
attendees as eligible for poster
presentations, to present their research,
speak on panels, and discuss innovative
approaches to science and technology to
their peers. The registration form
collects information from interested
parties necessary to register them for a
workshop.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
8,500.

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Post-Award Contract
Information
Office of the Chief Procurement
Officer, DHS.
ACTION: 30-Day Notice and request for
comments; Extension without change,
1600–0003.
AGENCY:
The Department of Homeland
Security, Office of the Chief
Procurement Officer, will submit the
following Information Collection
Request (ICR) to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 44 U.S.C. Chapter
35).
DHS previously published this
information collection request (ICR) in
the Federal Register on Thursday, May
14, 2015 at 80 FR 27695 for a 60-day
public comment period. No comments
were received by DHS. The purpose of
this notice is to allow additional 30days for public comments.
DATES: Comments are encouraged and
will be accepted until August 31, 2015.
This process is conducted in accordance
with 5 CFR 1320.1.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget. Comments should be addressed
to OMB Desk Officer, Department of
Homeland Security and sent via
electronic mail to oira_submission@
omb.eop.gov or faxed to (202) 395–5806.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) collects information, when
necessary, in administering public

SUMMARY:

contracts for supplies and services. The
information is used to determine
compliance with contract terms placed
in the contract as authorized by the
Federal Property and Administrative
Services Act (41 U.S.C. 251 et seq.), the
Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)
(48 CFR Chapter 1), and the Homeland
Security Acquisition Regulation (HSAR)
(48 CFR Chapter 30). Examples of
information DHS contracting officers
normally collect when administering
contracts include notices of changes in
key personnel, invoices, subcontracting
reports, and evidence of compliance
with hazardous removal requirements.
Examples of collections under the
HSAR include: 3052.204–71 Contractor
employee access, 3052.205–70
Advertisements, Publicizing Awards,
and Releases, 3052.209–72
Organizational Conflict of Interest,
3052.209–75 Prohibited Financial
Interests for Lead System Integrators,
3052.215–70 Key personnel or facilities,
3052.219–70 Small Business
subcontracting plan reporting,
3052.223–70 Removal or disposal of
hazardous substances—applicable
licenses and permits.
The information requested is used by
the Government’s contracting officers
and other acquisition personnel,
including technical and legal staff, for
various reasons such as determining the
suitability of contractor personnel
accessing DHS facilities; to ensure no
organizational conflicts of interest exist
during the performance of contracts; to
ensure the contractor maintains
applicable licenses and permits for the
removal and disposal of hazardous
materials; and to otherwise ensure firms
are performing in the Government’s best
interest. Failure to collect this
information would adversely affect the
quality of products and services DHS
receives from contractors. For example,
potentially, contractors who are lead
system integrators could acquire direct
financial interests in major systems the
contractors are contracted to procure,
which would compromise the integrity
of acquisitions for the Department. In
addition, contractors who own, control
or operate a business providing

protective guard services could possess
felony convictions during the
performance of contracts, putting the
Department at risk. Furthermore,
contractors could change key personnel
during the performance of contracts and
use less experienced or less qualified
personnel to reduce costs, which would
adversely affect DHS’s fulfillment of its
mission requirements.
Many sources of the requested
information use automated word
processing systems, databases,
spreadsheets, project management and
other commercial software to facilitate
preparation of material to be submitted.
With Government wide implementation
of e-Government initiatives, it is
commonplace within many of DHS’s
Components for submissions to be
electronic.
Disclosure/non-disclosure of
information is handled in accordance
with the Freedom of Information Act,
other disclosure statutes, and Federal
and agency acquisition regulations.
Based upon definitive contract award
data reported by DHS and its
Components to the Federal Procurement
Data System (FPDS) for Fiscal Year
2014. No program changes occurred,
however the burden was adjusted to
reflect an increase in the number of
respondents within DHS for Fiscal Year
2014.
The prior information collection
request for OMB No. 1600–0003 was
approved through August 31, 2015 by
OMB. This collection will be submitted
to OMB for review to request an
approval to extend the expiration date
of the collection. There are no proposed
changes to the information being
collected, instructions, frequency of the
collection or the use of the information
being collected.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
which:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
