SUMMARY: U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is making 
efforts to reduce the paperwork burden. USAID invites the general 
public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment 
on the following proposed and/or continuing information collections, as 
required by the Paperwork Reduction Act for 1995. Comments are 
requested concerning: (a) Whether the proposed or continuing 
collections of information are necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the burden estimates; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on the respondents, including the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

DATES: Submit comments on or before July 17, 2007.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Beverly Johnson, Bureau for 
Management, Office of Administrative Services, Information and Records 
Division, U.S. Agency for International Development, Room 2.07-106, 
RRB, Washington, DC 20523, (202) 712-1365 or via e-mail

    OMB No: OMB 0412-0563.
    Form No.: AID 1570-14.
    Title: Report on Commodities.
    Type of Review: Renewal of information collection.
    Purpose: The purpose of this information collection is to properly 
respond to the annual competition among applicants who apply on behalf 
of their sponsored overseas institutions and independent reviewers. 
ASHA needs to assess the strength and capability of the U.S. 
organizations, the overseas institutions and the merits of their 
proposed projects. Easily accessible historical records on past 
accomplishments and performance by repeat USOs, would speed the grant 
making process and provide documented reasons for both successful and 
unsuccessful applications.
    Annual Reporting Burden:
     Respondents: 65.
    Total annual responses: 260.
    Total annual hours requested: 650 hours.
