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

whether there are ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information.
