BILLING CODE 4810-AM-P DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Defense Acquisition Regulations System [Docket Number DARS-2021-0025; OMB Control Number 0704-0321] Information Collection Requirement; Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS); Contract Financing AGENCY: Defense Acquisition Regulations System, Department of Defense (DoD). ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: The Defense Acquisition Regulations System has submitted to OMB, for clearance, the following proposed revision and extension of a collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act.
DATES: DoD will consider all comments received by March 28, 2022. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: *Title and OMB Number:* Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) Part 232, Contract Financing, and the Clause at 252.232-7002, Progress Payments for Foreign Military Sales Acquisitions; OMB Control Number 0704-0321. *Affected Public:* Businesses or other for-profit and not-for-profit institutions. *Respondent's Obligation:* Required to obtain or retain benefits. *Number of Respondents:* 149. *Responses per Respondent:* Approximately 20. *Annual Responses:* 2,928. *Average Burden per Response:* 1.5 hours. *Annual Burden Hours:* 4,392. *Frequency:* On occasion. *Needs and Uses:* Section 22 of the Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 2762) requires the U.S.
Government to use foreign funds, rather than U.S. appropriated funds, to purchase military equipment for foreign governments. To comply with this requirement, the Government needs to know how much of each progress payment to charge each country. DFARS 232.502-4-70(a) prescribes use of the clause at DFARS 252.232-7002, Progress Payments for Foreign Military Sales Acquisitions, in any contract that provides for progress payments and contains foreign military sales
(FMS)requirements. The clause at 252.232-7002 requires each contractor whose contract includes FMS requirements to submit a separate progress payment request for each progress payment rate and to submit a supporting schedule that clearly distinguishes the contract's FMS requirements from U.S. requirements. The Government uses this information to determine how much of each country's funds to disburse to the contractor. Comments and recommendations on the proposed information collection should be sent to Ms. Susan Minson, DoD Desk Officer, at *Oira_submission@omb.eop.gov.* Please identify the proposed information collection by DoD Desk Officer and the Docket ID number and title of the information collection. You may also submit comments, identified by docket number and title, by the following method: *Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov.* Follow the instructions for submitting comments. *DoD Clearance Officer:* Ms. Angela Duncan. Requests for copies of the information collection proposal should be sent to Ms. Duncan at *whs.mc-alex.esd.mbx.dd-dod-information-collections@mail.mil.* Jennifer D. Johnson, Editor/Publisher, Defense Acquisition Regulations System. [FR Doc. 2022-03942 Filed 2-24-22; 8:45 am]
