 AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT


30-Day Notice of Public Information Collections

AGENCY: U.S. Agency for International Development.

ACTION: Notice of public information collections.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) seeks 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval to continue the 
information collections described below. In accordance with the 
Paperwork Reduction Act for 1995, USAID requests public comment on 
these collections from all interested individuals and organizations.

DATES: Submit comments on or before October 25, 2021.

ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lyudmila Bond, at (202) 916-2622 or 
via email at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed information collection was 
published in the Federal Register on June 24, 2021 at 86 FR 33206, 
allowing for a 60-day public comment period. No comments were received, 
however USAID has adjusted the burden calculations to account for an 
error in the GS 13 step 5 rate used in the calculation. The purpose of 
this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. 
Comments are requested concerning: (a) Whether the proposed collection 
of information is necessary for the proper performance of functions of 
the agency, including the practical utility of the information; (b) the 
accuracy of USAID's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection 
of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of 
the collection of information on respondents.
    OMB No: 0412-0579.
    Form: AID 309-2.
    Title: Offeror Information for Personal Services Contracts With 
Individuals.
    Type of Review: Reinstatement, without change, of a previously 
approved collection for which approval has expired.
    Purpose: USAID must collect information for reporting purposes to 
Congress and the Office of Acquisition and Assistance Contract 
Administration. This form will be used to collect information from 
offerors applying for PSC opportunities and to determine the most 
qualified offeror for award of a PSC contract.
    Annual Reporting Burden:
    U.S. Respondents: 12,600.
    Total Annual U.S. Responses: 12,600.
    Total Annual Hours Requested: 12,600 hours.
    The burden estimate is based on the average number of PSC awards 
made over the past three years, which is 600. The average number of 
respondents to each solicitation is 21. Therefore, the total annual 
number of U.S. responses averages 600 x 21 = 12,600. The amount of time 
estimated to complete the form is one hour, for a total of 12,600 
hours.
    The cost estimate is based on the total annual hours requested. 
Most respondents are individuals from various sources submitting offers 
for positions that have an average salary equivalent to a GS13 step 5, 
which currently equals $56.31/hr. Therefore, the total annual cost to 
respondents averages 12,600 x $56.31 = $709,506.
