Proposed Information Collection
Activity; Comment Request
Proposed Projects:
Title: State High Performance Bonus
System (HPBS) Transmission File
Layouts for HPBS Work Measures
OMB No.: 0970–0230
Description: There is no longer a High
Performance Bonus associated with this
information collection. The Deficit
Reduction Act of 2005 (Pub. L. 109–171)
eliminated the funding for the High
Performance Bonus (HPB), but we are
still requesting that States continue to
submit data necessary to calculate the
work measures previously reported
under the HPB.
Specifically, The TANF program was
reauthorized under the Deficit
Reduction Act of 2005. The statute
eliminated the funding for the HPB
under section 403(a)(4). Nevertheless
the Department is required under
section 413(d) to annually rank State
performance in moving TANF recipients
into private sector employment. We are,
therefore, requesting that States
continue to transmit monthly files of
adult TANF recipients necessary to
calculate the work measures
performance data. To the extent States
do not provide the requested
information, we will extract the
matching information from the TANF
Data Report. This may result in
calculation of the work performance
measures based on sample data, which
would provide us less precise
information on States’ performance.
The Transmission File Layouts form
provides the format that States will
continue to use for the quarterly
electronic transmission of monthly data
on TANF adult recipients. States that
have separate TANF–MOE files on these
programs are also requested to transmit
similar files. We are not requesting any
changes to the Transmission File
Layouts form.
Respondents: Respondents may
include any of the 50 States, the District
of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and
the Virgin Islands.

Sfmt 4703
OMB No.: 0970–0427.
Description: The Office of Head Start
within the Administration for Children
and Families, United States Department
of Health and Human Services, is
proposing to renew authority to collect
information using the Head Start
Program Information Report, monthly
enrollments, contacts, locations, and
reportable conditions. All information is
collected electronically through the
Head Start Enterprise System (HSES).
The PIR provides information about
Head Start and Early Head Start services
received by the children and families
enrolled in Head Start programs. The
information collected in the PIR is used
to inform the public about these
programs, to make periodic reports to
Congress about the status of children in
Head Start programs as required by the
Head Start Act, and to assist the
administration and training/technical
assistance of Head Start programs.
Respondents: Head Start and Early
Head Start program grant recipients.
