SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Section 676 of the CSBG Act requires States, including
the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and U.S.
territories applying for CSBG funds to submit an application and plan
(CSBG State Plan). The CSBG State Plan must meet statutory requirements
prior to OCS awarding CSBG grant recipients (States and territories)
with CSBG funds. Grant recipients have the option to submit a detailed
plan annually or biannually. Grant recipients that submit a biannual
plan must provide an abbreviated plan the following year if substantial
changes to the initial plan will occur. OCS is not requesting any
changes to this form. As this will be the 11th year of submitting this
form, OCS does not anticipate any additional burden.
OCS is also requesting to extend approval of the following
information collections, with no changes proposed:
<bullet> CSBG Eligible Entity List. In alignment with Federal
requirements, OCS requests that all grant recipients continue to keep
their CSBG Eligible Entity List current, to include maintaining an
accurate listing of the CSBG sub-grant recipients (CSBG eligible
entities) and current Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) for each recipient
listed. This is in alignment with current policies and processes, and
therefore OCS does not anticipate any additional burden.
<bullet> Optional survey for the sub-grant recipients (or CSBG-
eligible entities). The American Customer Survey Index (ACSI) is
administered biennially. OCS uses the ACSI survey for eligible entities
as part of the CSBG performance management framework. The survey
focuses on the customer service that the CSBG sub-grant recipients
receive from the CSBG grant recipients. The survey is optional, and
this will be the seventh time that CSBG sub-grant recipients have the
option to complete the survey. There were no revisions to the survey.
OCS anticipates submitting a subsequent revision to this
information collection, pending OMB review and approval of a separate
but related information collection request (CSBG Annual Report, OMB No.
0970-0492) that is forthcoming and expected in summer 2024 and may
result in minor updates to some of these materials.
Respondents: State governments, including the District of Columbia
and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories, and local
level sub-grant recipients.
