Short Statement:
This is a revision of a currently approved public information collection based on actual active grant registrants as of February 2, 2018 as reported in SAM. 2 CFR Subtitle A, Chapter I, and Part 25 mandates that the System for Award Management (SAM) serve as the repository for standard information about applicants and recipients. The burden is relative to the number of registrants for grant awards, which was as of February 2018, 143,334 entities, while when calculated for the previous burden there were 177,960 estimated registrants for grants. The reduction in respondents is due to the improved calculations based on using actual grant registrants in SAM. The increase in burden hours is due to the additional registration time for new users, and for existing users to review and update registration information.
