Short Statement:
An updated estimated # of respondents per year was used for the GSAR sections/ clauses covered by this information collection. The change in the numbers for each of the sections/clauses can be attributed to GSA using more recent data and the anticipated expansion of the TDR program. If the TDR program is expanded then less contracts would be covered by these requirements; therefore resulting in an decrease in burden. The burden previously included within this information collection for Alternate I of GSAR clause 552.238-81 was also moved to information collection 3090-0306. Lastly, the burden previously included for GSAR clause 552.238-82, Modifications (Federal Supply Schedules) (i.e., identified as “add items and SINs” in the prior renewal), and exercise of options was removed as the burden, if any, is covered by existing information collections.
