Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 215 / Wednesday, November 8, 2023 / Notices protected. The clause at DFARS 252.239–7000, Protection Against Compromising Emanations, requires that the contractor provide, upon request of the contracting officer, documentation that information technology used or provided under the contract meets appropriate information assurance requirements. The requirement at DFARS 239.7408, which requires the contracting officer to obtain a detailed special construction proposal from a common carrier that submits a proposal or quotation that has special construction requirements related to the performance of basic telecommunications services, is being removed from this collection. Approximately three offerors are required to submit a special construction proposal each year, which does not require OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act because it does not meet the threshold of ten or more members of the public being affected within any 12-month period.
