whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of 
information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    This information collection facilitates implementation of a HUBZone 
Program Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) revision as a result of 
revisions to the Small Business Administration regulations. The 
revision to the FAR requires the HUBZone offeror to provide the 
Contracting Officer a copy of the notice required by 13 CFR 126.601 if 
material changes occur before contract award that could affect its 
HUBZone eligibility. This notification to the contracting officer 
ensures that the offeror is still eligible for the award of a HUBZone 
contract.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Number of Respondents: 8,000.
    Responses Per Respondent: 1.
    Hours Per Response: .25.
    Total Burden Hours: 2,000.
    Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requesters may obtain a copy of the 
information collection documents from the General Services 
Administration, Regulatory Secretariat (VPR), 1800 F Street, NW., Room 
4041, Washington, DC 20405, telephone (202) 501-4755. Please cite OMB
