SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    9000-0056, Report of Shipment.

B. Need and Uses

    This clearance covers the information that contractors must submit 
to comply with the Federal Acquisition Regulation requirement at 
52.247-68, Report of Shipment (REPSHIP). This clause requires 
contractors to send an advanced notice to the consignee transportation 
office at least twenty-four hours before the arrival of a shipment, 
unless otherwise directed by a contracting officer.
    Generally, this notification is required only for classified 
material; sensitive, controlled, and certain other protected material; 
explosives, and some other hazardous materials; selected shipments 
requiring movement control; or minimum carload or truckload shipments. 
It facilitates arrangements for transportation control, labor, space, 
and use of materials handling equipment at destination. Also, timely 
receipt of notices by the consignee transportation office precludes the 
incurring of demurrage and vehicle detention charges.

C. Annual Burden

    Respondents: 113.
    Total Annual Responses: 8,023.
    Total Burden Hours: 1,340.
    Obtaining Copies: Requesters may obtain a copy of the information 
collection documents from the General Services Administration, 
Regulatory Secretariat Division (MVCB), 1800 F Street NW, Washington, 
DC 20405, telephone 202-501-4755. Please cite OMB Control No. 9000-
0056, Report of Shipment, in all correspondence.
