A. Purpose

    The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (Pub. L. 
109-282, as amended by section 6202(a) of Pub. L. 110-252), known as 
FFATA or the Transparency Act requires information disclosure of 
entities receiving Federal financial assistance through Federal awards 
such as Federal contracts, sub-contracts, grants and sub-grants, FFATA 
2(a), (2), (i), (ii). Beginning October 1, 2010, the currently approved 
Paperwork Reduction Act submission directed compliance with the 
Transparency Act to report prime and first-tier sub-award data. 
Specifically, Federal agencies and prime awardees of grants were to 
ensure disclosure of executive compensation of both prime and 
subawardees and sub-award data pursuant to the Transparency Act. This 
information collection requires reporting of only the information 
enumerated under the Transparency Act.
