The new Standard Form (SF) 1418, Performance Bond for Other than

the proposed rule, FAR case 91-27, providing a contract clause
governing performance bonds for other than construction. The terms and
conditions governing performance bonds for construction and other than
construction may vary. The SF 1418 is being created to reflect these
different terms and conditions.

Public reporting burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average 25 minutes per completion, including the time for
reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and
maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information.
The annual reporting burden is estimated as follows: Respondents,
500; responses per respondent, 5; total annual responses, 2,500;
preparation hours per response, .5; and total response burden hours,
1,250.
Dated: January 23, 1996.
