    Abstract: All contractors who have completed an EPA cost-
reimbursement type contract will be required to submit EPA Form 1900-
10. EPA Form 1900-10 summarizes all costs incurred in performance of 
the contract and sets forth the final indirect rates. This form is 
reviewed by the contracting officer to determine the final costs 
reimbursable to the contractor. The Federal Acquisition Regulation 
(FAR) 52.216-7 states that the Government will pay only the costs 
determined to be allowable by the contracting officer in accordance 
with FAR Subpart 31.2. Furthermore, FAR 52.216-7 states that indirect 
cost rates shall be established for each fiscal year at the close of a 
contractor's fiscal year. EPA Form 1900-10 summarizes this information 
for the entire contract period and provides a basis for cost review by 
contracting, finance, and audit personnel. In addition, FAR 4.804-5 
mandates that the office administering the contract shall ensure that 
the costs and indirect cost rates are settled.
    Form Numbers: EPA Form 1900-10.

    Respondents/affected entities: All contractors who have completed 
an EPA cost-reimbursement type contract.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (FAR 52.216-7).
    Estimated number of respondents: 5 (total).
    Frequency of response: Once, at the end of the contract.
    Total estimated burden: 32 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 
CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $4,602 (per year), includes $0 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the hours in the 
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB.
