DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Census Bureau 

Agency Information Collection 

Activities; Submission to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

Review and Approval; Comment 

Request; Data Collection Form for 

Reporting on Audits of States, Local 

Governments, Indian Tribes, 

Institutions of Higher Education, and 

Nonprofit Organizations 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit the following information 

collection request to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

review and clearance in accordance 

with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995, on or after the date of publication 

of this notice. We invite the general 

public and other Federal agencies to 

comment on proposed, and continuing 

information collections, which helps us 

assess the impact of our information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. Public 

comments were previously requested 

via the Federal Register on April 22, 

2021, during a 60-day comment period. 

This notice allows for an additional 30 

days for public comments. 

Agency: U.S. Census Bureau, 

Commerce. 

Title: Data Collection Form for 

Reporting on Audits of States, Local 

Governments, Indian Tribes, Institutions 

of Higher Education, and Nonprofit 

Organizations. 

OMB Control Number: 0607–0518. 

Form Number(s): SF–SAC. 

Type of Request: Regular submission, 

Request for an Extension, without 

Change, of a Currently Approved 

Collection. 

Number of Respondents: 80,000 

(40,000 auditees and 40,000 auditors). 

Average Hours per Response: 100 

hours for large auditees (approx. 400 

respondents) and 21 hours for all other 

auditees (approx. 79,600 respondents). 

Burden Hours: 1,711,600. 

Needs and Uses: Each year, more than 

$700 billion in federal assistance awards 

are expended by more than 100,000 

non-federal entities (states, local 

governments, Indian tribes and tribal 

organizations, institutions of higher 

education, and nonprofit organizations) 

throughout the country. To improve 

business-like practices and provide 

greater accountability over federal 

awards, the Single Audit Act 

Amendments of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–156) 

and the Uniform Administrative 

Requirements, Cost Principles, and 

Audit Requirements for Federal Awards 

(2 CFR part 200, or Uniform Guidance) 

imposed certain audit reporting and 

recordkeeping requirements on nonfederal entities/auditees that expend 

$750,000 or more in federal awards per 

year, as well as on their auditors. 

Non-federal entities are required by 

the Single Audit Act Amendments of 

1996 and Uniform Guidance to have 

audits conducted of their federal awards 

and file the resulting reporting packages 

(Single Audit reports) and data 

collection forms (Form SF–SAC) with 

the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC). 

The Form SF–SAC is Appendix X to 2 

CFR part 200. The Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) has 

designated the Census Bureau as the 

FAC to serve as the government-wide 

repository of record for Single Audit 

reports. 

The Single Audit process is a primary 

method used by federal agencies and 

pass-through entities to provide 

oversight of federal awards and reduce 

risk of non-compliance and improper 

payments. This includes following up 

on audit findings and questioned costs. 

Entities meeting the dollar threshold 

defined in OMB Uniform Guidance 

must submit the Form SF–SAC and 

their Single Audit reporting package to 

the FAC. The entity must complete the 

Single Audit submission every fiscal 

period they meet the reporting dollar 

threshold. 

The information collection provides 

data about auditees, the federal awards 

they expend, and the results of their 

audits. This information is used by 

entities responsible for overseeing the 

funding and administration of Federal 

awards (e.g., Congress, Federal agencies, 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 176 / Wednesday, September 15, 2021 / Notices 51341 

and pass-through entities) and entities 

responsible for administering Federal 

awards (e.g., state governing officials, 

county and city councils, board of 

directors of nonprofit organizations, and 

senior management of various auditees). 

The information is used in making 

decisions about which federal awards 

and recipients to fund in the future, 

identifying and resolving areas of 

noncompliance, and improving the 

administration and delivery of federal 

awards. 

Federal agencies, non-federal entities, 

and pass-through entities use submitted 

Forms SF–SAC and Single Audit 

reporting packages to ensure federal 

awards are expended in accordance 

with applicable laws and regulations. 

The FAC uses the information on the 

Form SF–SAC to ensure proper 

distribution of audit reports to federal 

agencies and identify non-federal 

entities who have not filed the required 

reports. The FAC also uses the 

information on the Form SF–SAC to 

create a government-wide database, 

which contains information on audit 

results. This database is publicly 

accessible online at https://

facdissem.census.gov. 

The Uniform Guidance indicates that 

the FAC is authorized to make the 

reporting package and the Form SF– 

SAC publicly available on a website. 

There is an exception for Indian Tribes 

and Tribal Organizations (2 CFR 

200.512(b)(2)). An auditee that is an 

Indian Tribe (as defined in the Indian 

Self-Determination, Education and 

Assistance Act (ISDEAA), 25 U.S.C 

5304) may opt not to authorize the FAC 

to make the reporting package publicly 

available on a website. For these 

exempted auditees, the text of the audit 

findings, the text of the corrective action 

plan, and the text portions collected as 

part of the Notes to the SEFA (all 3 are 

included in the reporting package) will 

not be publicly released on the Form 

SF–SAC. 

The data collected by the FAC is used 

by federal agencies, pass-through 

entities, non-federal entities, auditors, 

the Government Accountability Office 

(GAO), OMB and the general public for 

information about and management of 

federal awards and the results of audits. 

This information is essential in 

developing effective government-wide 

audit policies overseeing federal 

awards. The Single Audit Act 

Amendments of 1996 require OMB to 

perform a biennial review of the 

threshold that triggers an audit 

requirement, prescribe a risk-based 

approach to auditing major programs, 

and provide guidance on other matters 

necessary to implement the Single 

Audit Act. OMB cannot perform its 

duties required by the Single Audit Act 

Amendments or develop audit policies 

without the information provided under 

this data collection. 

This information is exclusively 

collected via FAC’s web-based 

application, which is designed to assist 

the respondent in completing the data 

collection form. Uniform Guidance 

requires auditees to submit their 

information to the FAC nine months 

after their fiscal period has ended or 30 

days after receipt of their audit report— 

whichever comes first. This is an 

ongoing collection process and there 

have been no changes to the collection 

requirements since the last approval. 

Affected Public: States, local 

governments, Indian tribes, institutions 

of higher education, non-profit 

organizations (Non-Federal entities) and 

their auditors. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory. 

Legal Authority: Title 31 U.S.C. 

Section 7501 et. seq. and 2 CFR part 

200. 

This information collection request 

may be viewed at www.reginfo.gov. 

Follow the instructions to view the 

Department of Commerce collections 

currently under review by OMB. 

Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be 

submitted within 30 days of the 

publication of this notice on the 

following website ‘. Find this particular 

information collection by selecting
