AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
USAID Information Collection on COVID-19 Global Response and
Recovery Implementation Plan
AGENCY: United States Agency for International Development (USAID),
COVID-19 Task Force.
ACTION: Notice of emergency OMB approval.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the emergency review procedures of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the United States Agency for
International Development (USAID), is announcing that on July 26, 2021,
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) granted emergency approval of
a new information collection to inform technical approaches to
implementing USAID's COVID-19 Implementation Plan. This emergency
approval is valid until January, 2022.
DATES: USAID plans initially to seek information between August 1 and
August 13, 2021.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information
should be directed to Lisa Schechtman, <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#39554a5a515c5a514d545857794c4a58505d175e564f"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="a9c5dacac1cccac1ddc4c8c7e9dcdac8c0cd87cec6df">[email protected]</span></a>.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.13, the Agency
submitted a request for emergency approval of a new information
collection on July 23, 2021, which was approved by OMB on July 26,
2021. The collection will request input from select experts on
implementation of the five objectives of the U.S. Global COVID-19
Response and Recovery Framework, and USAID's lines of efforts to help
accomplish these objectives. Information will be requested of non-
governmental organizations and private sector entities through focus-
group discussions.
Description of Proposed Use of Information
The information will be collected via small focus groups, and will
be used by the USAID COVID-19 Task Force and technical bureaus to
improve the technical assistance, global leadership, and guidance USAID
provides to implementing partners, the InterAgency, and Missions
globally. This will enable more focused, efficient, and effective
coordination and implementation of the USAID COVID-19 Implementation
Plan. Examples of use of similar information from past similar
information collections undertaken by USAID include guidance documents
on technical issues, alignment with national plans and strategies, or
incorporation of key issues in Country Development Cooperation
Strategies. Some materials produced utilizing information collected
through this request may be made available to the public.
Time Burden
OMB's approval enables USAID to engage a total of 250 individual
respondents. Each respondent will be requested to provide one hour of
time. As such, the total estimated time burden of this proposed
information collection request is 250 hours.
Ashley Boccuzzi,
Coordination Advisor, USAID COVID-19 Task Force.
