-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: OCS is requesting a three-year extension of the semi-annual
reporting format for CED grant recipients, the Performance Progress
Report (PPR), which collects information regarding the outcomes and
management of CED projects (OMB #0970-0386, expiration February 28,
2023). There are minor changes requested to the form to provide clarity
to users completing the form.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: OCS will continue collecting key information about
[[Page 59102]]
projects funded through the CED program. The legislative requirement
for this program is in Title IV of the Community Opportunities,
Accountability and Training and Educational Services Act (COATS Human
Services Reauthorization Act) of October 27, 1998, Public Law 105-285,
section 680(b) as amended. The PPR collects information regarding the
outcomes and management of CED projects. OCS will use the data to
critically review the overall design and effectiveness of the program.
The PPR will continue to be administered to all active grant
recipients of the CED program. Grant recipients will be required to use
this reporting tool for their semi-annual reports to be submitted twice
a year. Through a previous renewal, the current PPR replaced both the
annual questionnaire and other semi-annual reporting formats, which
resulted in an overall reduction in burden for the grant recipients,
significantly improved the quality of the data collected by OCS, and
allowed grant recipients to become accustomed to this format. OCS seeks
to renew this PPR to continue to collect quality data from grant
recipients. To ensure the burden on grant recipients is not increased,
but that the information collected demonstrates the full impact of the
program, OCS has conducted an in-depth review of the forms and requests
minor changes to the PPR to provide clarity to users filling out the
form.
Respondents: Active CED Grant Recipients.
