SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose

    The Standard Form (SF) 28, Affidavit of Individual Surety, is used 
by all executive agencies, including the Department of Defense, to 
obtain information from individuals wishing to serve as sureties to 
Government bonds. Offerors and contractors may use an individual surety 
as security for bonds required under a solicitation/contract for 
supplies or services (including construction). It is an elective 
decision on the part of the offeror/contractor to use individual 
sureties instead of other available sources of surety or sureties for 
Government bonds. The information on the SF 28 is used to assist the 
contracting officer in determining the acceptability of individuals 
proposed as sureties.

B. Public Comment

    A 60 day notice was published in the Federal Register at 82 FR 
48231, on October 17, 2017. No comments were received.

C. Annual Reporting Burden

    The number of solicitations and contracts requiring the submission 
of bid guarantees, performance, or payment bonds, correlate roughly to 
the number of contract awards containing FAR clause 52.228-11, Pledge 
of Assets. Fiscal year 2016 data on the number of contracts containing 
FAR clause 52.228-11 was obtained from the Electronic Document Access 
system (DoD official contract file system) to estimate burdens for this 
information collection notice. The following is a summary of the FY 
2016 data:
    Respondents: 244.
    Responses Per Respondent: 2.
    Total Responses: 488.
    Hours Per Response: 0.3.
    Total Burden Hours: 146.

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
