This justification supports an extension of the expiration date of OMB Control No. 9000-0129. This clearance covers the information that contractors must submit to comply with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause at 52.230-6, Administration of Cost Accounting Standards. This FAR clause requires contractors performing Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) covered contracts to submit notifications and descriptions of certain cost accounting practice changes, including revisions to their Disclosure Statements, if applicable. Often these descriptions are quite complex.

This information is used by contracting officers for ascertaining compliance with CAS.
