Short Statement:
This submission incorporates another OMB clearance (9000-0022). The net result is cancellation of 6,650 burden hours approved under OMB clearance 9000-0022, and a net increase of only 3,182 burden hours under OMB clearance 9000-0024. There are no program changes. The adjustments in estimates are based on FY 2017 FPDS data, some refinements in estimating techniques (including the use of data on items manufactured inside and outside the United States, and the rationale for such purchases, including data on foreign items purchased for use outside the United States).
