SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    As prescribed in FAR 7.305(c), the clause at FAR 52.207-3, Right of 
First Refusal of Employment, deals with adversely affected or separated 
Government employees resulting from the conversion of work from in-
house performance to performance by contract. The clause requires the 
contractor to give these employees an opportunity to work for the 
contractor who is awarded the contract.
    The information gathered will be used by the Government to gain 
knowledge of which employees, adversely affected or separated as a 
result of the contract award, have gained employment with the 
contractor within 90 days after contract performance begins.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    The total annual burden has increased from 912 hours to 30,327 
hours. This is based on an analysis of the Federal Procurement Data 
System--Next Generation (FPDS-NG) which shows that for Fiscal Years 
2011 and 2012 there were 9,198 and 11,020, respectively, new A-76 
awards. An average of the number of the A-76 awards for these two years 
equates to 10,109.
    Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
functions of the FAR, and whether it 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.
    Number of Respondents: 10,109.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Total Responses: 10,109.
    Average Burden Hours per Response: 3.
    Total Burden Hours: 30,327.

information collection documents from the General Services 
Administration, Regulatory Secretariat (MVCB), 1800 F Street NW., 2nd
