SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, AoA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance. With respect to the following collection of 
information, AoA invites comments on: (1) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
AoA's functions, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of AoA's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques when 
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.
    The Certification on Maintenance of Effort for the Title III and 
Certification of Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program Expenditures provides 
statutorily required information regarding state's contribution to 
programs funded under the Older Americans Act and conformance with 
legislative requirements, pertinent Federal regulations and other 
applicable instructions and guidelines issued by Administration on 
Aging (AoA). This information will be used for Federal oversight of 
Title III Programs and Title VII Ombudsman Program.
    AoA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows: 56 State Agencies on Aging respond annually which should be an 
average burden of one half (\1/2\) hour per State agency per year or a 
total of twenty-eight hours for all state agencies annually. In the 
Federal Register of March 19, 2008 (Vol. 73, No. 54 Page 14821), the 
agency requested comments on the proposed collection of information. No 
comments on the content of the collection were received.
