OMB Control Number: 0505-0022.
Summary of Collection: To obtain approval of information that must
be provided by Federal contractors and other applicable individuals
(including all employees and some affiliates) when applying for a USDA
credential (identification card). The information is necessary to
comply with the requirements outlined in Homeland Security Presidential
Directive (HSPD) 12, and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS)
201, Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Phase I and II. USDA has
completed Phase I and to comply with PIV II, USDA has implemented an
automated identity proofing, registration, and issuance process

credentialing and identity management. The automated system includes
six separate and distinct roles to ensure no one single individual can
issue a credential without further validation from another authorized
role holder. An automated notification process provides streamlined
communication between role holder and the applicant, notifying each as
to the respective steps in the process. If the information is not
collected, Federal and non-Federal employees may not be permitted in
some facilities and will not be allowed access to government computer
systems.
