SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

What Information Is GSA Particularly 

Interested in? 

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, GSA specifically solicits 

comments and information to enable it 

to: 

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

(ii) Evaluate the accuracy of the 

Agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(iv) Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of responses. In 

particular, GSA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25) on examples of 

specific additional efforts that GSA 

could make to reduce the paperwork 

burden for very small businesses 

affected by this collection. 

What Should I Consider When I 

Prepare My Comments for GSA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments. 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

6. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

7. To ensure proper receipt by GSA, 

be sure to identify the ICR title on the 

first page of your response. You may 

also provide the Federal Register 

citation. 

What Information Collection Activity or 

ICR Does This Apply to? 

Title: USASpending/IT Dashboard 

Feedback Mechanisms Information 

Collection. 

OMB Control Number: 3090–0285. 

The USAspending.gov Web site, 

which is a re-launch of the 

www.fedspending.org Web site, 

provides information, as collected from 

federal agencies, to the public in 

accordance with the Federal Funding 

Accountability and Transparency Act of 

2006 (Transparency Act). 

USAspending.gov is a public-friendly 

Web site that provides details regarding 

each Federal award, such as: The name 

and location of the entity receiving the 

award, the amount of the award, 

funding agency for the award, etc. 

Additionally, the IT dashboard Web 

site, which is a part of 

USAspending.gov, provides details of 

Federal Information Technology (IT) 

investments and is based on data 

received from agency reports to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). The ability to look at contracts, 

grants, loans, Information Technology 

investments, and other types of 

spending across many agencies, in 

greater detail, is a key ingredient to 

building public trust in government and 

credibility in the professionals who use 

these agreements. USAspending.gov 

visitors will be provided opportunities 

to provide feedback in the spirit of the 

President’s open government and 

transparency initiative. Examples of 

feedback mechanisms are: 

(1) A ‘‘Contact Us’’ entry page with an 

optional contact e-mail address for those 

visitors wishing to identify themselves 

on the USAspending.gov web-page, 

(2) A ‘‘Contact Us’’ entry page with a 

contact e-mail address on the IT 

dashboard web-page; and

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 169 / Wednesday, September 2, 2009 / Notices 45453 

(3) A Collaborative Work 

Environment using wiki web pages, email discussion forum, message archive, 

shared file workspace, full text search 

capability, etc. 

Additional feedback mechanisms may 

be placed in the future but additional 

details have not yet been defined 

regarding them. This information 

collection request for a generic 

clearance is a replacement of the 

emergency ICR approved by OMB. It is 

being submitted in order to fulfill the 

public feedback aspects of this 

important initiative. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average up to 500 hours per 

year. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

The estimated annual burden request 

is summarized here: 

Affected entities: Anyone that chooses 

to visit USASpending.gov, including the 

IT Dashboard Web site. 

Estimated total number of potential 

responses: 5,000. 

Frequency of response: Occasionally. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

500 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 0. 

What is the Next Step in the Process for 

This ICR? 

GSA will consider the comments 

received and amend the ICR as 

appropriate. The final ICR package will 

then be submitted to OMB for review 

and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, GSA will issue 

another Federal Register notice 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to 

announce the submission of the ICR to 

OMB and the opportunity to submit 

additional comments to OMB. If you 

have any questions about this ICR or the 

approval process, please contact the 

person listed under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT.
