(9000-0029).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 
(44 U.S.C. 3501), the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Secretariat 
has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request to 
review and approve an extension of a currently approved information

Requests.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    This request covers the collection of information as a first step 
under Public Law 85-804, as amended by Public Law 93-155 and Executive 
Order 10789 dated November 14, 1958, that allows contracts to be 
entered into, amended, or modified in order to facilitate national 
defense. In order for a firm to be granted relief under the Act, 
specific evidence must be submitted which supports the firm's assertion 
that relief is appropriate and that the matter cannot be disposed of 
under the terms of the contract.
    The information is used by the Government to determine if relief 
can be granted under the Act and to determine the appropriate type and 
amount of relief.

    Public reporting burden for this collection of information is 
estimated to average 16 hours (or minutes) per completion, including 
the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, 
gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing 
the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden 
estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, 
including suggestions for reducing this burden, to General Services 
Administration, FAR Secretariat, 18th & F Streets, NW., Room 4037, 
Washington, DC 20405.
    The annual reporting burden is estimated as follows: Respondents, 
100; responses per respondent, 1; total annual responses, 100; 
preparation hours per response, 16; and total response burden hours, 
1,600.
