In GSAR subpart 511.2, the solicitation provisions and contract clauses at GSAR 511.204 have been substantially rewritten to accommodate the incorporation of clauses used by the former Federal Supply Service into the GSAR and to revise prescriptions for certain clauses. The clause at GSAR 552.211-71, Standard References, has been deleted in favor of the clause at GSAR 552.211-72, Reference to Specifications in Drawings, which can now be used in construction contracts as well as supply contracts. Four other clauses currently prescribed in GSAR 511.204 are retained with minor edits; they are—
The Paperwork Reduction Act applies, however, these changes to the GSAR do not impose additional information collection requirements to the paperwork burden previously approved under OMB Control Numbers 3090-0203, 3090-0204, and 3090-0246. In fact, two of these information collections are no longer required. GSAR 511.104-70 has been deleted, so OMB Control Number 3090-0203 is no longer required, nor is OMB Control Number 3090-0204, because this rewrite eliminates the former GSAR 511.404(a)(1), 511.404(a)(2), and 511.404(a)(5), 552.211-78, and 552.211-82. However, the information collection requirement imposed by GSAR 511.204(d), now 511.204(c), has been retained. There are no new information collection requirements in the nine clauses added to those prescribed at GSAR Subpart 511.2.
