SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

[[Page 37081]]

    Title: Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR) Provision 
852.270-3, Shellfish.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0589.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: VAAR clause 852.270-3, Shellfish, requires that a firm 
furnishing shellfish to VA must ensure that the shellfish is packaged 
in a container that is marked with the packer's State certificate 
number and State abbreviation. In addition, the firm must ensure that 
the container is tagged or labeled to show the name and address of the 
approved producer or shipper, the name of the State of origin, and the 
certificate number of the approved producer or shipper. This 
information normally accompanies the shellfish from the packer and is 
not information that must be separately obtained by the seller. The 
information is needed to ensure that shellfish purchased by VA comes 
from a State- and Federal-approved and inspected source. The 
information is used to help ensure that VA purchases healthful 
shellfish.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information was published on April 2, 2007, at pages 15765-15766.
    Affected Public: Business or other for profit, individuals or 
households, and not-for-profit institutions.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 17 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 1 minute.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,000.

    Dated: June 25, 2007.

    By direction of the Secretary.
