SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980
(44 U.S.C. 3501), the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Secretariat
has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request to
review and approve an extension of a currently approved information

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
Agencies are required to report under 41 U.S.C. 252(d) and 10
U.S.C. 2305(d) suspected violations of the antitrust laws (e.g.,
collusive bidding, identical bids, uniform estimating systems, etc.) to
the Attorney General.
As a first step in assuring that Government contracts are not
awarded to firms violating such laws, offerors on Government contracts
must complete the certificate of independent price determination. An
offer will not be considered for award where the certificate has been
deleted or modified. Deletions or modifications of the certificate and
suspected false certificates are reported to the Attorney General.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average .04 hours for the first completion, .0083 hours
for subsequent completions, or an average of .01 hours 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. Send comments regarding this
burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information,
including suggestions for reducing this burden, to General Services
Administration, FAR Secretariat, 18th & F Streets, NW., Room 4037,
Washington, DC 20405.
The annual reporting burden is estimated as follows: Respondents,
64,250; responses per respondent, 20; total annual responses,
1,285,000; preparation hours per response, .02; and total response
burden hours, 25,700.
