are required to publish notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information, and
to allow 60 days for public comment in
response to the notice. This notice
solicits comments on the information
collection requirements relating to the
Certification on Maintenance of Effort
for the Title III and Certification of
Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program
Expenditures for all AoA Title III and
Title VII Grantees.
DATES: Submit written or electronic

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Stephen Daniels, Director, Office of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency request
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44

existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, AoA is publishing notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
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

burden of the collection of information

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 twentyeight hours for all state agencies
annually.

functions of the Advisory Board include

In December 2000, the President delegated
responsibility for funding, staffing, and

subsequently delegated this authority to the
CDC.
NIOSH implements this responsibility for
CDC. The charter was issued on August 3,
2001, renewed at appropriate intervals, and

Purpose: This Advisory Board is charged

program; and (c) upon request by the
Secretary, HHS, advise the Secretary on
whether there is a class of employees at any
Department of Energy facility who were
exposed to radiation but for whom it is not
feasible to estimate their radiation dose, and
