SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
The Federal Hazardous Substance Act and Hazardous Material
Transportation Act prescribe standards for packaging of hazardous
substances. To meet the requirements of the Acts, the General Services
Administration Regulation prescribes provision 552.223-72, Hazardous
Material Information, to be inserted in solicitations and contracts
that provides for delivery of hazardous materials on a Free On Board
(FOB) origin basis.
This information collection will be accomplished by means of the
provision which requires the contractor to identify for each National
Stock Number (NSN), the DOT Shipping Name, Department of Transportation
(DOT) Hazards Class, and whether the item requires a DOT label.
Contracting Officers and technical personnel use the information to
monitor and ensure contract requirements based on law and regulation.
Properly identified and labeled items of hazardous material allows
for appropriate handling of such items throughout GSA's supply chain
system. The information is used by GSA, stored in an NSN database and
provided to GSA customers. Non-Collection and/or a less frequently
conducted collection of the information resulting from GSAR provision
552.223-72 would prevent the Government from being properly notified.
Government activities may be hindered from notifying their employees
of; (1) All hazards to which they may be exposed; (2) Relative symptoms
and appropriate emergency treatment; and (3) Proper conditions and
precautions for safe use and exposure.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Respondents: 563.
Responses per Respondent: 3.
Total Responses: 1,689.
Hours per Response: .5.
Total Burden Hours: 844.5.
C. Public Comments
Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this
collection of information is necessary, whether it will have practical
utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection
of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and
methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and ways in which we can minimize the
burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond,
through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requesters may obtain a copy of the
information collection documents from the GSA Regulatory Secretariat
Division, by calling 202-501-4755 or emailing <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#75322634271012261016351206145b121a03"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="480f1b091a2d2f1b2d2b082f3b29662f273e">[email protected]</span></a>. Please

correspondence.
