C. Annual Burden
Respondents/Recordkeepers: 4,702.
Total Annual Responses: 9,433,560.
Total Burden Hours: 4,662,001 (2,405,041 reporting hours +
2,256,960 recordkeeping hours).
D. Public Comment
A 60-day notice was published in the Federal Register at 90 FR
11970, on March 13, 2025. A comment was received; however, it did not
change the estimate of the burden.
Comment: The proposed collection should be reviewed in the same
timeline of other agencies. The accuracy of the government property and
reporting of the details and information of the case is crucial for
record keeping purposes. Reports should be generated within each agency
for analysis, perhaps with a certain threshold indicator on a
continuous basis to determine significant changes in cost, to determine
if the cost is valid or in need of revision to correct original
documents.
Response: Consistent with the comment, agencies manage Government
property closely. This is a request to the Office of Management and
Budget to extend the clearance of a previously approved information
collection requirement regarding Government property. There are no
program changes. The FAR requirements remain the same.

collection documents from the GSA Regulatory Secretariat Division by
