including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the 
accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of

USDA Office of the Secretary

    Title: USDA Generic Solution for Solicitation for Funding 
Opportunity Announcements
    OMB Control Number: 0503-NEW.
    Summary of Collection: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) 
conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the public and 
Federal agencies an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and 
continuing information collections before submitting them to the Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB).
    This program helps to ensure requested data can be provided in the 
desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is 
minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the 
impact of collection requirements can be properly assessed. 
Periodically USDA solicits grant applications on <a href="http://grants.gov">http://grants.gov</a> by 
issuing a Funding Opportunity Announcement, Request for Applications, 
Notice of Funding Announcement, Notice of Solicitation of Applications, 
<a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a> announcement, or other funding announcement type. To ensure 
grants are awarded to the applicant(s) best suited to perform the 
functions of the grant, applicants are generally required to submit an 
application. The first part of USDA grant applications consists of 
submitting the application form(s), which includes the Standard Form 
424, Application for Federal Assistance and may include additional 
standard grant application forms. The second part of a grant 
application usually requires a technical proposal demonstrating the 
applicant's capabilities in accordance with a statement of work or 
selection criteria and other related information as specified in the 
funding announcement. Following the grant award, the grant awardee may 
also be required to provide progress reports or additional documents.
    Need and Use of the Information: The information collected in 
response to solicitations for grant applications has been and will be 
used by the USDA for issuing grants to the applicants most suited for 
fulfilling the mission of the grant.
    Description of Respondents: State, Local, and Tribal Governments; 
Private Sector--businesses or other for-profits and not-for-profit 
institutions.
    Number of Respondents: 10,000.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
    Total Burden Hours: 400,000.
