Short Statement:
The increased burden for this collection results from four information collections that the Department is requesting OMB approval for the first time. The Department notes that it does not anticipate any changes in the burden associated with the one collection currently covered by this control number, the "Uniform Report of DBE Awards/Commitments and Payments." On the one hand, the collections "Uniform Certification Application Form" and "Annual Affidavit of No Change" have long been integral parts of the regulatory make-up of the DBE program. The adoption and modification of these collections has also been done through numerous notice and comment rulemakings, but the Department has not until now placed these collections under the DBE Control Number. In the NPRM, the Department is also proposing revisions to both of these rulemakings, which, if adopted, would likely increase their burden beyond what the Department estimates is necessary for the current forms. The second type of collections is the two new collections, the "Personal Net Worth Form" and the "Percentages of DBEs in Various Categories" collection. The "Personal Net Worth Form" is being proposed to replace the Department's current practice of requesting that DBEs complete an existing SBA form at the time they apply for certification, so it does not add new requirements per se, so much as it transfers that burden from being caused by the SBA form to being caused by this proposed form. The Department is also proposing to require that firms submit this form with their annual affidavit of no change, which would lead to an increased burden over current practice. The "Percentages of DBEs in Various Categories" collection institutes for the first time a long-standing statutory requirement.
