Needs and Uses: DoD contracting officers need this information to evaluate contractor proposals for contract modifications; to determine that a contractor has removed obstructions to navigation; to review contractor requests for payment for mobilization and preparatory work; to determine reasonableness of costs allocated to mobilization and demobilization; and to determine eligibility for the 20 percent evaluation preference for United States firms in the award of some overseas construction contracts. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit and not-for-profit institutions. Annual Burden Hours: 342,315. Number of Respondents: 3,353. Responses per Respondent: Approximately 1. Annual Responses: 3,369. Average Burden per Response: Approximately 101 hours. Frequency: On occasion.

DFARS 236.570(c) prescribes use of the following provisions in solicitations for military construction contracts that are funded with military construction appropriations and are estimated to exceed $1,000,000: (1) The provision at DFARS 252.236-7010, Overseas Military Construction--Preference for United States Firms, when contract performance will be in a United States outlying area in the Pacific or in a country bordering the Arabian Gulf, requires an offeror to specify whether or not it is a United States firm.
