SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    GSA has mission responsibilities related to monitoring and 
enforcing compliance with Federal civil rights laws and regulations 
that apply to Federal financial assistance programs administered by 
GSA. Specifically, those laws provide that no person on the ground of 
race, color, national origin, disability, sex, or age shall be excluded 
from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise 
subjected to discrimination under any program in connection with which 
Federal financial assistance is extended under laws administered in 
whole, or in part, by GSA.
    These mission responsibilities generate the requirement to request 
and obtain certain data from recipients of Federal surplus real 
property conveyances under the Federal Public Benefit Conveyance 
Program for the purpose of determining compliance, such as the number 
of individuals that speak non-English languages encountered by the 
recipient's program(s) and how the recipient is addressing meaningful 
access for individuals that are Limited English Proficient; whether the 
recipients provide disability access in compliance with applicable laws 
and standards; whether there has been complaints or lawsuits filed 
against the recipient based on prohibited discrimination; whether there 
has been any findings of discrimination; and whether the recipient's 
facilities are accessible to qualified individuals with disabilities.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Respondents: 75.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Total Responses: 75.
    Hours per Response: 2.

C. Public Comments

    Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this 
collection of information will have practical utility; whether our 
estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is 
accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use 
of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology.
