SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
EDA provides a broad range of
economic development assistance to
help distressed communities design and
implement effective economic
development strategies. Part of this
assistance includes disseminating
information about best practices and
encouraging collegial learning among
economic development practitioners.
EDA has created the Award for
Excellence in Economic Development to
recognize outstanding economic
development activities of national
importance. In order to make Awards
for Excellence in Economic
Development, EDA must collect two
kinds of information: (a) information
identifying the nominee and contacts
within the organization being
nominated and (b) information
explaining why the nominee should be
given the award. The information will
be used to determine those applicants
best meeting the preannounced
selection criteria. Use of a nomination
form standardizes and limits the
information collected as part of the
nomination process. This makes the
competition fair and eases any burden
on applicants and reviewers alike.
Participation in the competition is
voluntary. The award is strictly
honorary.

and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
