zone of one or more stationary sources,
according to the data reported in RMPs.
The VZIS is available on the internet.
Members of the public who do not have
access to the internet are able to obtain
the same information by regular mail
request to the EPA.
Form numbers: None.

General Description of Collection:
This is a collection of information
involving submission of information
and various forms by contractors who
desire to do business with the FDIC in
connection with contract proposals
submitted in response to FDIC
solicitations.
In order to obtain competitive
proposals and contracts from vendors
interested in providing goods or services
to the FDIC, the FDIC uses the
Solicitation/Award request (Form 3700/
55). This form is used in connection
with a request for proposal and a
request for price quotations.
In anticipation of a particular contract
solicitation, the FDIC may first conduct
market research to narrow down the list
of potential contractors. This is done
through a request for information (RFI).
Following the RFI process, potential
firms may be notified if they are to be
included in the next phase of the
acquisition process.
The FDIC Background Investigation
Questionnaire for Contractor Personnel
and Subcontractors (Form 1600/04),
Background Investigation Questionnaire
for Contractors (Form1600/07), Integrity
and Fitness Representations and
Certifications (Form 3700/12), and
Leasing Representations and
Certifications (Form 3700/44) are a
result of the implementation of 12 CFR
part 366. The FDIC adopted 12 CFR part
366 pursuant to Section 12(f)(3) and (4)
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:33 Nov 21, 2018
Jkt 247001
....................................
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12
U.S.C. 1822(f)(3) and (4), and the
rulemaking authority of the FDIC found
at 12 U.S.C. 1819. Pursuant to those
sections and consistent with the goals
and purposes of titles 18 and 41 of the
U.S. Code, the rule establishes the
minimum standards of integrity and
fitness that contractors, subcontractors,
and employees of contractors and
subcontractors must meet if they
perform any service or function on
behalf of the FDIC. This rule includes
regulations governing conflicts of
interest, ethical responsibility, and use
of confidential information in
accordance with 1822(f)(3); and the
prohibitions and the submission of
information in accordance with
1822(f)(4). This rule applies to a person
who submits an offer to perform or
performs, directly or indirectly, a
contractual service or function on behalf
of the FDIC.
In addition, the evaluation of an
offeror’s past performance under formal
contracting procedures is a mandatory
technical evaluation criterion in the
FDIC’s standard solicitation document.
In support of the evaluation of the past
performance criterion, the FDIC Past
Performance Questionnaire (Form 3700/
57) was developed to be submitted by
other government agencies or
commercial businesses who are doing
business, or have done business, with
PO 00000

the contractor that the FDIC is
evaluating.
The FDIC Contractor Representations
and Certifications form (Form 3700/4A)
must be completed by any offeror that
responds to a solicitation for an award
over $100,000.
Finally, in connection with a contract
proposal, the FDIC seeks a commitment
from an FDIC contractor to ensure, to
the maximum extent possible consistent
with applicable law, the fair inclusion
of minorities and women in its
workforce and the workforces of its
applicable subcontractors. The
commitment is asserted by the FDIC
Fair Inclusion of Minorities and Women
form (Form 3700/59), which is a
contract clause implementing Section
342(c)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act
(12 U.S.C. 5452). The clause asserts the
FDIC’s right to request documentation
from the contractor that demonstrates
the contractor’s good faith effort to
include minorities and women in its
workforce and subcontractors’
workforces.
The annual burden for this
information collection is estimated to be
7,830 hours. This represents an increase
of 5,496 hours from the current burden
estimate of 2,334 hours. This increase is
not due to any new requirements
imposed by the FDIC. Rather, it is due
to FDIC’s reassessment of the burden
hours associated with the contracting

process and to better account for the
burdens associated with requests for
proposals and price quotations as well
as RFIs.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the FDIC’s functions, including whether
the information has practical utility; (b)
the accuracy of the estimates of the
burden of the information collection,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. All comments will become
a matter of public record.

In order to obtain competitive proposals and contracts from vendors
interested in providing goods or services to the FDIC, the FDIC uses
the Solicitation/Award request (Form 3700/55). This form is used in
connection with a request for proposal and a request for price

contractors. This is done through a request for information (RFI).
Following the RFI process, potential firms may be notified if they are
to be included in the next phase of the acquisition process.
The FDIC Background Investigation Questionnaire for Contractor
Personnel and Subcontractors (Form 1600/04), Background Investigation
Questionnaire for Contractors (Form1600/07), Integrity and Fitness
Representations and Certifications (Form 3700/12), and Leasing
Representations and Certifications (Form 3700/44) are a result of the
implementation of 12 CFR part 366. The FDIC adopted 12 CFR part 366
pursuant to Section 12(f)(3) and (4) of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act, 12 U.S.C. 1822(f)(3) and (4), and the rulemaking authority of the
FDIC found at 12 U.S.C. 1819. Pursuant to those sections and consistent
with the goals and purposes of titles 18 and 41 of the U.S. Code, the

submission of information in accordance with 1822(f)(4). This rule
applies to a person who submits an offer to perform or performs,
directly or indirectly, a contractual service or function on behalf of
the FDIC.
In addition, the evaluation of an offeror's past performance under
formal contracting procedures is a mandatory technical evaluation
criterion in the FDIC's standard solicitation document. In support of
the evaluation of the past performance criterion, the FDIC Past
Performance Questionnaire (Form 3700/57) was developed to be submitted
by other government agencies or commercial businesses who are doing
business, or have done business, with the contractor that the FDIC is
evaluating.
The FDIC Contractor Representations and Certifications form (Form
3700/4A) must be completed by any offeror that responds to a
solicitation for an award over $100,000.
Finally, in connection with a contract proposal, the FDIC seeks a
commitment from an FDIC contractor to ensure, to the maximum extent
possible consistent with applicable law, the fair inclusion of
minorities and women in its workforce and the workforces of its
applicable subcontractors. The commitment is asserted by the FDIC Fair
Inclusion of Minorities and Women form (Form 3700/59), which is a
contract clause implementing Section 342(c)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Wall

that demonstrates the contractor's good faith effort to include
minorities and women in its workforce and subcontractors' workforces.
The annual burden for this information collection is estimated to
be 7,830 hours. This represents an increase of 5,496 hours from the
current burden estimate of 2,334 hours. This increase is not due to any
new requirements imposed by the FDIC. Rather, it is due to FDIC's
reassessment of the burden hours associated with the contracting

process and to better account for the burdens associated with requests
for proposals and price quotations as well as RFIs.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions,
including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the
accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection,
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All
comments will become a matter of public record.
