SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006, 
Public Law 109-282 (Transparency Act) requires information disclosure 
of entities receiving Federal financial assistance through Federal 
awards such as Federal contracts, sub-contracts, grants and sub-grants, 
FFATA section 2(a),(2),(i),(ii). Beginning October 1, 2010, this 
Paperwork Reduction Act submission directs compliance with the 
Transparency Act to report prime and first-tier sub-award data. Federal 
agencies and prime awardees will ensure disclosure of Federal contract 
and grant sub-award and compensation data. This information collection 
requires information necessary for prime awardee registration into the 
FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) and review of its entity-related 
information, at http://www.fsrs.gov. An entity may be required to 
provide information to include:
     DUNS number.
     Name and address of entity.
     Parent DUNS number.
     Federal Award Identification Number (FAIN).
     CFDA Number.
     Federal Awarding Agency of the Grant.
    If a prime awardee has already registered in the system to report 
contracts-related Transparency Act financial data, a new log-in will 
not be required.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Respondents: 49,308.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Hours per Response: .5 hr.
