SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose

    This regulation prescribes labor standards for Federally financed 
and assisted construction contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon and 
Related Acts (DBRA), as well as labor standards for nonconstruction 
contracts subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act 
(CWHSSA).
    The recordkeeping requirements in this regulation, Federal 
Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 22.406, are a restatement of requirements 
cleared under OMB control numbers 1215-0140, 1215-0149, and 1215-0017 
for 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(i), 5.5(c), and 5.15 (records to be kept by 
employers under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 CFR 516, which 
is the basic recordkeeping regulation for all the laws administered by 
the Wage and Hour Division of the Employment Standards Administration).
    FAR 22.406-3, implements the recordkeeping and information 
collection requirements prescribed in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iii) cleared 
under OMB control number 1215-0140 (also prescribed at 48 CFR 22.406 
under OMB control number 9000-0089), by providing SF 1444, Request for 
Authorization of Additional Classification and Rate, for the contractor 
and the Government to enter the recordkeeping and information 
collection data required by 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(ii) prior to transmitting 
the data to the Department of Labor.
    This SF 1444 places no further burden on the contractor or the 
Government other than the information collection burdens already 
cleared by OMB for 29 CFR 5.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    There is no burden placed on the public beyond that prescribed by 
the Department of Labor regulations.
    Number of Respondents: 2599.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Total Responses: 2599.
    Average Burden Hours per Response: .5.
    Total Burden Hours: 1300.
    The burden hour is estimated to be time necessary for the 
contractor to prepare and submit the form.
    Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requester may obtain a copy of the 
justification from the General Services Administration, Regulatory 
Secretariat (MVCB), 1275 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20417, 
telephone (202) 501-4755. Please cite OMB Control No. 9000-0089, 
Request for Authorization of Additional Classification and Rate,
