    The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is 
requesting renewal of an existing collection that is used to ensure

cooperative agreements with commercial firms. Reporting and 
recordkeeping are prescribed 14 CFR Part 1274.
    Absence of the information provided by agreement recipients by 
means of the following proposals, reports, and recordkeeping would 
result in NASA's inability to carry out its mission and to comply with 
statutory requirements (e.g., Chief Financial Officers Act, on the 
accountability of public funds and maintenance of an appropriate 
internal control system).

II. Method of Collection

    NASA utilized paper and electronic methods to collect information 
from collection respondents.
