Needs and Uses This clearance covers the information that offerors or contractors must submit to comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirement: • Standard Form (SF) 28, Affidavit of Individual Surety. This form is used by all executive agencies, including the Department of Defense (DoD), to obtain information from individuals wishing to serve as sureties to Government bonds. Offerors and contractors may use an individual surety as security for bonds required under a solicitation or contract VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:27 Jan 21, 2021 Jkt 253001 for supplies or services (including construction). It is an elective decision on the part of the offeror or contractor to use individual sureties instead of other available sources of surety or sureties for Government bonds. The contracting officer uses the information on the SF 28 to determine the acceptability of individuals proposed as sureties. C. Annual Burden Respondents: 10. Total Annual Responses: 20. Total Burden Hours: 6. D. Public Comment A 60-day notice was published in the Federal Register at 85 FR 70151, on November 4, 2020. One comment was received; however, it did not change the estimate of the burden. Comment: The commenter requested the FAR Council implement FAR Case 2017–003, Individual Sureties, and, once implemented, create the necessary reporting requirements that will mitigate, if not eliminate, instances where individual surety bonds are accepted with worthless assets or with assets that are beyond the control of contracting officials. Accordingly, the commenter finds the renewal/revision of the information collection premature because it is uncertain what types of information should be solicited on the SF 28. Response: The renewal of the information collection is required to ensure compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act as the current approval for OMB Control number 9000–0001 expires on February 28,2021. As stated in section VII. of the final rule preamble for FAR Case 2017–003 (86 FR 3682), changes to the SF 28 are needed to update the language in the form to be consistent with the changes to the FAR text. The modification of the SF 28 does not impose additional information collection requirements. Obtaining Copies: Requesters may obtain a copy of the information collection documents from the GSA Regulatory Secretariat Division, by calling 202–501–4755 or emailing GSARegSec@gsa.gov. Please cite OMB Control No. 9000–0001, Standard Form 28, Affidavit of Individual Surety. William F.
