SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Day of Service Application Instructions (MLK &
9/11)
OMB Control Number: 3045-0180.

Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals, Households, Businesses,

Abstract: This information collection seeks feedback on AmeriCorps
Day of Service Application Instructions for future MLK and 9/11 Day of
Service grant competitions after the expiration of the current
Application Instructions. AmeriCorps seeks to revise the current
information collection instrument to reflect the Single Audit threshold
of $1,000,000 (formerly $750,000), revise the definition of
``equipment'' to reflect an acquisition cost of $10,000 or more per
unit (formerly $5,000), and update the de minimis rate to 15% of
modified total direct costs (formerly 10%). The information collection
will be used in the same manner as the existing application. AmeriCorps
also seeks to continue using the current application
[[Page 3446]]
until the revised application is approved by OMB. The current
application is due to expire on March 31, 2026.
Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized
and/or included in the request for OMB approval. Comments are invited
on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e)
estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. Burden
means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide information
to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review
instructions; to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search data sources, to complete and
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise
disclose the information. All written comments will be available for
public inspection on <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a>.

Acting Chief of Program Operations.
