Proposed Collection; Comment

Request Entitled Zero Burden

Information Collection Reports

AGENCY: Office of Acquisition Policy,

GSA.

ACTION: Notice of request for public

comments regarding reinstatement to a

previously approved OMB clearance

3090–0250, Zero Burden Information

Collection Reports.

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44

U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Office of

Acquisition Policy has submitted to the

Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) a request to review and approve

a reinstatement of a previously

approved information collection

requirement concerning Zero Burden

Information Collection Reports. GSA

proposed to use a single, general control

number for information collections that

impose no burden upon the public.

DATES: Comment Due June 16, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Comments regarding this

collection of information should be

submitted to: Edward Springer, GSA

Desk Officer, Room 3235, NEOB,

Washington, DC 20503 and to Marjorie

Ashby, General Services Administration

(MVP), 1800 F Street NW, Washington,

DC 20405.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The GSA

is requesting the Office of Management

and Budget (OMB) to reinstate

information collection, 3090–0250, Zero

Burden Information Collection Reports.

This information collection consists of

reports that do not impose collection

burdens upon the public. These

collections require information which is

already available to the public at large

or that is routinely exchanged by firms

during the normal course of business. A

general control number for these

collections decreases the amount of

paperwork generated by the approval

process. Since May 1992, GSA has

published two rules that fall under

Information Collection 3090–0250:

‘‘Implementation of Public Law 99–506’’

published at 56 FR 29442, June 27,

1991, and ‘‘Industrial Funding Fee’’

published at 62 FR 38475, July 18, 1997.

Copy of Proposal

A copy of this proposal may be

obtained from the GSA Acquisition

Policy Division (MVP), Room 4011, GSA

Building, 1800 F Street, NW,

Washington, DC 20405 or by

telephoning (202) 501–3822, or by

faxing your request to (202) 501–3341.

Dated: April 7, 1998.

Deputy Associate Administrator for

Acquisition Policy.

GENERAL SERVICES

ADMINISTRATION

[OMB Control No. 3090–0248]

Submission for OMB Review;

Comment Request Entitled Placement

of Orders and Ordering Information

AGENCY: Office of Acquisition Policy,

GSA.

ACTION: Notice of request for public

comments regarding an extension to an

existing OMB clearance (3090–0248). A

request for public comments was

published at 63 FR 5384, February 2,

1998. No comments were received from

the public.

SUMMARY: The GSA hereby gives notice

under the Paperwork Reduction Act of

1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), that it is

requesting the Office of Management

and Budget (OMB) to reinstate

information collection, 3090–0248,

Placement of Orders and Ordering

Information. This information collection

advances improved information

technology usage by facilitating the use

of electronic data interchange (EDI).

GSA’s Federal Supply Service has

discontinued placing paper delivery

orders and now maximizes the use of

computer to-computer EDI. As an

alternative, a contractor can receive EDI

delivery orders through facsimile

transmission. This extended use of EDI

furthers congressional and executive

branch policies that Federal agencies

provide leadership in advancing

environmental objectives through

technology and the expanded use of

electronic commerce.

DATES: May 18, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Edward

Springer, GSA Desk Officer, Room 3235,

NEOB, Washington, DC 20503, and to

Marjorie Ashby, General Services

Administration (MVP), 18th & F Streets,

NW, Washington, DC 20405.

ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN:

Respondents: 260; annual responses:
