DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Economic Development Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request; Requirements for Approved Construction
Investments
The Department of Commerce will submit the following information
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication of this notice. We invite the
general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed and
continuing information collections, which helps us assess the impact of
our information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the
Federal Register on November 7, 2024 during a 60-day comment period.
This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.
Agency: Economic Development Administration (EDA), Department of
Commerce.
Title: Requirements for Approved Construction Investments.
OMB Control Number: 0610-0096.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission (revision and extension of a
currently approved information collection).
Number of Respondents: 3,500.
Average Hours per Response: 2 hours.
Burden Hours: 7,000 hours.
Needs and Uses: EDA may award assistance for construction projects
through its Public Works and Economic Adjustment Assistance (EAA)
Programs. Public Works Program investments help support the
construction or rehabilitation of essential public infrastructure and
facilities necessary to generate or retain private sector jobs and
investments, attract private sector capital, and promote vibrant
economic ecosystems, regional competitiveness and innovation. The EAA
Program provides a wide range of technical, planning and infrastructure
assistance in regions experiencing adverse economic changes that may
occur suddenly or over time.
EDA is seeking an extension of the series of checklists and
templates that constitute EDA's post-approval construction tools and
the Standard Terms and Conditions for Construction Projects. These
checklists and templates, as well as any special conditions
incorporated into the terms and conditions at the time of award,
supplement the requirements that apply to EDA-funded construction
projects.
Affected Public: Current recipients of EDA construction (Public
Works or Economic Assistance Adjustment) awards, to include (1) cities
or other political subdivisions of a state, including a special purpose
unit of state or local government engaged in economic or infrastructure
development activities, or a consortium of political subdivisions; (2)
states; (3) institutions of higher education or a consortium of
institutions of higher education; (4) public or private non-profit
organizations or associations; (5) District Organizations; and (6)
Indian Tribes or a consortia of Indian Tribes.
Frequency: One time, although some are periodic.
Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: The Public Works and Economic Development Act of
1965 (42 U.S.C. 3121 et seq.).
