Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 15 / Wednesday, January 24, 2007 / Notices
Federal program using the poverty
guidelines serves any of those
jurisdictions, the Federal office that
administers the program is generally
responsible for deciding whether to use
the contiguous-states-and-DC guidelines
for those jurisdictions or to follow some
other procedure.
Due to confusing legislative language
dating back to 1972, the poverty
guidelines have sometimes been
mistakenly referred to as the ‘‘OMB’’
(Office of Management and Budget)
poverty guidelines or poverty line. In
fact, OMB has never issued the
guidelines; the guidelines are issued
each year by the Department of Health
and Human Services. The poverty
guidelines may be formally referenced
as ‘‘the poverty guidelines updated
periodically in the Federal Register by
the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services under the authority of
42 U.S.C. 9902(2).’’
Some programs use a percentage
multiple of the guidelines (for example,
125 percent or 185 percent of the
guidelines), as noted in relevant
authorizing legislation or program
regulations. Non-Federal organizations
that use the poverty guidelines under
their own authority in non-federallyfunded activities can choose to use a
percentage multiple of the guidelines
such as 125 percent or 185 percent.
The poverty guidelines do not make a
distinction between farm and non-farm
families, or between aged and non-aged
units. (Only the Census Bureau poverty
thresholds have separate figures for aged
and non-aged one-person and twoperson units.)
Note that this notice does not provide
definitions of such terms as ‘‘income’’ or
‘‘family.’’ This is because there is
considerable variation in how different
programs that use the guidelines define
these terms, traceable to the different
laws and regulations that govern the
various programs. Therefore, questions

Title: Annual Maintenance-of-Effort
(MOE) Report.
OMB No. 0970–0248.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) is
requesting a three-year extension of the
ACF–204 (Annual MOE Report). The
report is used to collect descriptive
program characteristics information on
the programs operated by States and
Territories in association with their
Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families (TANF) programs. All State
and Territory expenditures claimed
toward States’ and Territories’ MOE
requirements must be appropriate, i.e.,
meet all applicable MOE requirements.
The Annual MOE Report provides the
ability to learn about and to monitor the
nature of State and Territory
expenditures used to meet State’s and
Territories’ MOE requirements, and it is
an important source of information
about the different ways that States and
Territories are using their resources to
help families attain and maintain selfsufficiency.
In addition, the report is used to
obtain State and Territory program
characteristics for ACF’s annual report
to Congress, and the report serves as a
useful resource to use in Congressional
hearings about how TANF programs are
evolving, in assessing State the Territory
MOE expenditures, and in assessing the
need for legislative changes.
Respondents: The 50 States of the
United States, the District of Columbia,
Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin
Islands.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing the
availability of a document entitled
‘‘Guidance for Industry: Certain Human
Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and TissueBased Products (HCT/Ps) Recovered
From Donors Who Were Tested for
Communicable Diseases Using Pooled
Specimens or Diagnostic Tests’’ dated
January 2007. The guidance document
provides establishments that make HCT/
P donor eligibility determinations with
recommendations concerning the donor
eligibility requirements contained in 21
CFR part 1271, subpart C, which became
effective on May 25, 2005. The guidance
applies only to certain HCT/Ps that were
not regulated as HCT/Ps before May 25,
2005, and that were recovered from
donors beginning on or after the May 25,
2005, and within 30 days of the date of
publication of this document in the
Federal Register. This guidance has an
immediate implementation date because
FDA has determined that prior public
participation is not feasible or
appropriate. In certain cases, donor
retesting needs to be initiated quickly,
and the availability of certain HCT/Ps
may be critical to their intended
recipients.
