Short Statement:
The amendments to 10 CFR part 719 described above will increase the amount of information collected from contractors under this collection. First, while the requirements related to contractor submissions of legal management plans and annualized budgets remain largely unchanged and result in no alteration to the existing associated burden hours, the Department has shifted downward its estimate of the burdens associated with contractor preparation of legal management plans and annualized budgets based on experience and communications with respondents. Second, the rulemaking now requires that contractors submit information related to requests to settle matters. Third, while 10 CFR part 719 has required contractors to submit information regarding their initiation of offensive and defensive litigation since its inception in 2001, previous Paperwork Reduction Act submissions did not account for burdens associated with these requirements.
