Notice of Information Collection

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Notice of information collection.

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

SUMMARY: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, as part of 
its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, 
invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this 
opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing information 
collections.

DATES: All comments should be submitted within 60 calendar days from 
the date of this publication.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to Gatrie Johnson, National 
Aeronautics and Space Administration, 300 E Street SW, Washington, DC 
20546-0001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The NASA Contractor Financial Management Reporting System is the 
basic financial medium for contractor reporting of estimated and 
incurred costs, providing essential data for projecting costs and hours 
to ensure that contractor performance is realistically planned and 
supported by dollar and labor resources. The data provided by these 
reports is an integral part of the Agency's accrual accounting and cost 
based budgeting system. Respondents are reimbursed for associated cost 
to provide the information, per their negotiated contract price and 
associated terms of the contract. There are no ``total capital and 
start-up'' or ``total operation and maintenance and purchase of 
services'' costs associated since NASA policy requires that data 
reported is generated from the contractors' existing system. The 
contractors' internal management system shall be relied upon to the 
maximum extent possible. Comments submitted in response to this notice 
will be summarized and included in the request for OMB approval of this 
information collection. They will also become a matter of public 
record.

II. Methods of Collection

    NASA collects this information electronically and that is the 
preferred manner, however information may also be collected via mail or 
fax.

III. Data

    Title: NASA Contractor Financial Management Reports.
    OMB Number: 2700-0003.
    Type of review: Renewal of a previously approved collection.
    Affected Public: Business or other for profit, not-for-profit 
institutions.
    Average Expected Annual Number of Activities: 500.
    Average number of Responses per Activity: 12.
    Annual Responses: 6,000.
    Frequency of Responses: Monthly.
    Average Minutes per Response: 540.
    Burden Hours: 54,000.

IV. Request for Comments

    Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
NASA, including whether the information collection has practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of NASA's estimate of the burden (including 
hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; (3) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 
and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents, including automated collection techniques or the use of 
other forms of information technology.
    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and included in the request for OMB approval of this information 
collection. They will also become a matter of public record.

NASA PRA Clearance Officer.
