subcontracting with other organizations,
etc., as well as the financial condition
of the organization. All of this
information is considered by CSREES
prior to award to determine the grantee
is both managerially and fiscally
responsible. This information is
submitted to CSREES on a one-time
basis. If sufficient changes occur within
the organization, the grantee submits
revised information.
With regards to compliance with the
Government Paperwork Elimination Act
(44 U.S.C. 3504 note), CSREES is
proposing to postpone making an
electronic option available for this
information collection until the Federal
government-wide electronic process is
developed for collecting organizational
information and statutory certifications
from new grantees. Under the Federal
Financial Assistance Management
Improvement Act of 1999 (Pub.L. No.
106–107), Federal agencies and OMB
have been working together to
streamline and simplify the award and
administration of Federal grants. As a
result of these activities, Federal
agencies and OMB are proposing
various regulations, policies, and
business processes that will decrease
the overall information collection
burden to grant recipients by having a
central location where this information
is collected for use by all Federal
grantmaking agencies.
Estimate of the Burden: CSREES
estimates the number of responses for
the Form CSREES–665 will be 150 with
an estimated response time of .5 hour
per form, representing a total annual
burden of 75 hours for this form.
CSREES estimates the number of
responses for the Form CSREES–666
will be 150 with an estimated response
time of 6.3 hours per form, representing
a total annual burden of 945 hours for
this form. These estimates are based on
a survey of grantees who had recently
been approved for grant awards. They
were asked to give an estimate of time
it took them to complete each form. This
estimate was to include such things as:
(1) Reviewing the instructions; (2)
searching existing data sources; (3)
gathering and maintaining the data
needed; and (4) actual completion of the
forms. The average time it took each
respondent was calculated from their
responses.
Comments: Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agency, including whether the
information will have a practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the

validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
information collection on those who are
to respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

March 2006.
