Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
The Department of Agriculture has submitted the following
information collection requirement(s) to OMB for review and clearance

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility; the
accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used; ways to enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Comments regarding this information collection received by December
1, 2023 will be considered. Written comments and recommendations for
the proposed information collection should be submitted within 30 days
of the publication of this notice on the following website

collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--Open for

An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information
unless the collection of information displays a currently valid OMB

required to respond to the collection of information unless it displays
a currently valid OMB control number.
National Resources Conservation Service
Title: Conservation Outreach, Education, and Technical Assistance.
OMB Control Number: 0578-NEW.
Summary of Collection: NRCS OPD is administrating the Equity in
Conservation Outreach cooperative agreements. As the primary goal of
NRCS, in collaboration with partners, is to expand conservation
assistance to historically underserved producers and underserved
communities and to provide opportunities for students to pursue careers
in agriculture, natural resources, and related sciences. After the
cooperative agreements are awarded, the cooperators will be required to
provide performance reports to provide information as specified in the
general terms and conditions in the executed cooperative agreement.
Recipients will report semi-annually. In order to evaluate the impact
and effectiveness of the agreement via standardized metrics, NRCS OPD
is offering a performance reporting template as a supplement to the
required performance report.
Need and Use of the Information: The approved cooperators will
report the equity information using the report template to NRCS OPD on
the underserved producers and communities who receive conservation
assistance and students who are interested to pursue agriculture,
natural resources and related sciences careers. Failure in not
providing the report will result in not getting the effectiveness of
the outreach, education and technical assistance.

Total Burden Hours: 1,200.
