SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SBA is considering revising its information 
collections for various certification programs to streamline the 
certification process for those programs. In particular, SBA seeks to 
make the programs more uniform so that small businesses applying for 
multiple certifications face a common standard of review where 
possible. The certification programs affected are the 8(a) Business 
Development (BD) program, the women-owned small business program, the 
veteran-owned small business program, and the HUBZone program.

Solicitation of Public Comments

    SBA is requesting comments on (a) Whether the collection of 
information is necessary for the agency to properly perform its 
functions; (b) whether the burden estimates are accurate; (c) whether 
there are ways to minimize the burden, including through the use of 
automated techniques or other forms of information technology; and (d) 
whether there are ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information.
