Does the recipient of a “Cooperative Agreement” need PRA clearance to conduct surveys under the agreement?
A. In Cooperative Agreements, PRA review and approval is required if the OPDIV has significant input/control into the design, methodology, and analysis of the data collection or if the data is stored at the OPDIV level. Because the need for PRA clearance is dependent on the level of control the government has over the collection, if the need for PRA clearance is not clearly evident, questions about whether a cooperative agreement requires PRA review and approval should be directed to their OPDIV Reports Clearance Officer.
