SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Veterans Affairs Acquisition 

Regulation (VAAR) Provision 852.211– 

75, Technical Industry Standards. 

OMB Control Number: 2900–0586. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: VAAR provision 852.211– 

75, Technical Industry Standards, 

requires that items offered for sale to VA 

under the solicitation conform to certain 

technical industry standards, such as 

Underwriters Laboratory (UL) or the 

National Fire Protection Association, 

and that the contractor furnish evidence 

to VA that the items meet that 

requirement. The evidence is normally 

in the form of a tag or seal affixed to the 

item, such as the UL tag on an electrical 

cord or a tag on a fire-rated door. This 

requires no additional effort on the part 

of the contractor, as the items come 

from the factory with the tags already in 

place, as part of the manufacturer’s 

standard manufacturing operation. 

Occasionally, for items not already 

meeting standards or for items not 

previously tested, a contractor will have 

to furnish a certificate from an 

acceptable laboratory certifying that the 

items furnished have been tested in 

accordance with, and conform to, the 

specified standards. Only firms whose 

products have not previously been 

tested to ensure the products meet the 

industry standards required under the 

solicitation will be required to submit a 

separate certificate. The information 

will be used to ensure that the items 

being purchased meet minimum safety 

standards and to protect VA employees, 

VA beneficiaries, and the public. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number. The Federal Register 

Notice with a 60-day comment period 

soliciting comments on this collection 

of information was published on March 

18, 2010, at pages 13209–13210. 

Affected Public: Business or other for 

profit. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 50 hours. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Respondent: 30 minutes. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

100. 

Dated: May 19, 2010.
