SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, ACL has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance. The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is
requesting approval to collect data for information collection
requirements related to Centers for Independent Living Program
Performance Report (CIL PPR) (0985-0061). In the context of ACL, IL
programs are supported through funding authorized by the Rehabilitation
Act of 1973, as amended (The Act). Title VII, chapter 1 of the Act
states the current purpose of the program is to ``promote a philosophy
of independent living including a philosophy of consumer control, peer
support, self-help, self-determination, equal access, and individual
and system advocacy, in order to maximize the leadership, empowerment,
independence, and productivity of individuals with disabilities, and
the integration and full inclusion of individuals with disabilities
into the mainstream of American society.''
The CIL PPR is submitted annually by all CILs receiving IL Part C
funds. The PPRs are used by ACL to assess grantees' compliance with
title VII of the Act, and with 45 CFR 1329 of the Code of Federal
Regulations and with applicable provisions of the HHS Regulations at 45
CFR part 75. The PPR serves as the primary basis for ACL's monitoring
activities in fulfillment of its responsibilities under sections 706
and 722 of the Act. The PPR also enables ACL to track performance
outcomes and efficiency measures of the CIL programs with respect to
the annual and long-term performance targets established in compliance
with GPRA. The PPR is also used by ACL to design CIL and Statewide
Independent Living Council training and technical assistance programs
authorized by section 711A and section 721 of the Act.
The CARES Act PPR is submitted annually by all CILs receiving CARES
Act funds. The CARES Act requires ACL grantees that receive CARES Act
funding to report quarterly, to ACL and to the Pandemic Response
Accountability Committee, ``the total amount of large covered funds
that the grantee received from ACL; the amount of large covered funds
received that were expended or obligated for each project or activity;
a detailed list of all projects or activities for which large covered
funds were expended or obligated, including the name of the project or
activity; a description . . . ; and the estimated number of jobs
created or retained by the project or activity, where applicable; and
detailed information on any subcontracts or Subgrants . . .''
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, Public Law 116-136,
H.R. 748 15011(a-b), 116th Cong. (2020).
The current version of the CIL PPR (that includes the CARES Act
PPR) that OILP is requesting an extension for was approved by OMB; the
approval was extended and will expire on January 31, 2022.

Estimated Program Burden: ACL estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows: The two-hundred ninety Part C
CILs will complete 353 CIL PPRs annually, and it will take an estimated
35 hours per CIL per CIL PPR for an estimated total of 12,355 hours.
Two-hundred ninety CILs will each complete CARES Act PPRs, and it will
take an estimated forty-six hours per CIL per CARES Act PPR. The two-
hundred ninety Part C CILs will take an estimated 13,340 hours to
complete CARES Act PPRs. The two-hundred ninety Part C CILs will spend
an estimated 25,695 hours completing CIL PPRs and CARES Act PPRs. These
burden estimates are based on ACL's estimate of the average time
required to collect the information collected in the PPR and feedback
from CILs on the time needed to complete the PPR.
