Short Statement: This is a revision of a currently approved public information collection based on actual prime grant awards made in FY12 as reported by the awarding agency on USAspending.gov to unique DUNS numbers. Each of the unique DUNS numbers would have had to be registered in SAM in order for the agency to report the grant award. 2 CFR Subtitle A, Chapter I, and Part 25 mandates that the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) (now migrated into the System for Award Management) serve as the repository for standard information about applicants and recipients. The burden is relative to the number of applicants for Federal grants and assistance, which was for FY12, 204,726 entities, while when calculated for the original burden there were only 23,358 respondents in the system. The increase in burden is due to the increased compliance with the CFR requirement to register in the centralized and integrated System as well as the increase in number of entities applying for the grants and assistance available through the Federal government.
