SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act, the Administration for Community Living (ACL) has submitted the
following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and
clearance. A Program Performance Report on activities under title VI of
the Older Americans Act (OAA) is necessary for ACL to monitor Federal
funds effectively and to be informed as to the progress of the
programs. Grantees are required to submit an annual Program Performance
Report to allow for efficient Federal monitoring.
The OAA states that the tribal organization (applicant) for a grant
under title VI part A, Indian Program, report data for ACL to comply
with requirements under the OAA. The OAA also states that an applicant
under title VI part B, Native Hawaiian Program, provide that the
organization will report information for the agency Assistant Secretary
to reasonably require, and comply with such requirements. An applicant
for a grant under title VI part C, Native American Caregiver Support
Program must also prepare and submit reports on the data and records,
including information on the services funded by ACL. A combined Program
Performance Report form is used for reporting by grantees under Parts
A, B and C. The regulations require grantees to submit annual
performance reports unless ACL requires quarterly or semiannual
reports.
The Program Performance Report provides a data base for ACL to: (1)
monitor program achievement of performance objectives; (2) establish
program policy and direction; and (3) prepare responses to Congress,
the OMB, other Federal departments, and public and private agencies as
required by the OAA. If ACL did not collect the program data herein
requested, it would not be able to monitor and manage total program
progress as expected, nor develop program policy options directed
toward assuring the most effective use of limited title VI funds.
Comments in Response to the 60-Day Federal Register Notice
A 60-day FRN published in the FR on October 25, 2023, at 88 FR
73344-73345. ACL did not receive any public comments during the 60-day
FRN public comment period.
Estimated Program Burden: The burden estimate is specific to the
type of work done by the grantees that use this reporting format; ACL
estimates it takes 3.5 hours to complete the title VI PPR. With 282
respondents taking 3.5 hours per performance report, annual burden hour
totals 987 hours.
