SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is an extension to a currently approved
information collection (IC). ACL is responsible for administering the
Title VI A/B (Nutrition and Supportive Service) and C (Caregiver)
grants. The purpose of this data collection is to improve and
standardize the format of the application. The instrument will collect
data as prescribed by the Older Americans Act Section 612(a), 614(a)
and 45 CFR 1326.19 related to the eligibility of Federally recognized
Tribes and Native Hawaiian organizations for grant funds under this
program and their capacity to deliver services to elders.
The Older Americans Act, Application for Title VI Parts A/B and C
Grants collects information on the ability of federally recognized
American Indian, Alaskan Native and Native Hawaiian organizations to
provide nutrition, supportive, and caregiver services to elders within
their service area. Applicants are required to provide a description of
their organization's service area, the number of eligible elders in
their service area, and their ability to deliver services and sign
assurances that the organization will comply with all applicable laws
and regulations.
This is an extension of a currently approved information
collection. The proposed data collection materials have been updated to
better align with the requirements of the Older Americans Act and
Federal regulations, as well as to improve data quality and grantee
accountability. Furthermore, this grantee application will better line
up with the Title VI Program Performance Report under 0985-0007. This
data collection will also support ACL in tracking performance outcomes
and efficiency measures with respect to the annual and long-term
performance targets established in compliance with the Government
Performance Results Modernization Act (GPRMA).
Comments in Response to the 60-Day Federal Register Notice
A notice published in the Federal Register 87, No. 126 on Friday,
July 1, 2022. There were No public comments in response to the 60-day
notice.
Estimated Program Burden: Title VI funding is broken into three
categories. Parts A and B are for nutritional and supportive
programming, with Part A being restricted to American Indian and Alaska
Native grantees, and Part B restricted to Native Hawaiian grantees.
Part C is for caregiver programming. All Part C grantees must have Part
A/B
[[Page 59103]]
funding, but not all Part A/B grantees will have Part C programs.
Therefore, there are likely to be 295 unique respondents, but only 250
will have to complete all three portions of the application. This
application covers all three parts of Title VI.
ACL estimates the burden associated with this collection of
information as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of Responses per Hours per Annual burden
Respondent/data collection activity respondents respondent response hours
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Title VI Application Part A/B................... 295 1 2.75 270.4
Title VI Application Part C..................... 250 1 1.5 125
---------------------------------------------------------------
Total....................................... .............. .............. 4.25 395.4
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The number of burden hours associated with the Title VI, Part C,
data collection was calculated as 811.25.
However, since this instrument is used only once every three years
results in an annualized number of 270.4 hours. Similarly, the total
hours associated with the Title VI, Part C, application is 375.
Dated: September 23, 2022.
