The revision is a minor change in the burden hours estimate for the ICR. The table below shows the change in burden estimate.

Background

According to the Abstract for the current version of the ICR:

“The Federal Hazardous Substance Act (Pub. L. 86-613) and Hazardous Material Transportation Act (Pub. L. 93-633) prescribe standards for packaging of hazardous substances. To meet the requirements of the Acts, the General Services Administration Regulation prescribes provision 552.223-72 [link added], Hazardous Material Information, to be inserted in solicitations that provides for delivery of hazardous materials on an f.o.b. origin basis. The provision requires the contractor to identify for each National Stock Number (NSN) the Department of Transportation (DOT) Shipping Name, DOT Hazards Class, and whether the item requires a DOT label.”
