SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: Quality Control Review Schedule. OMB Number: 0584–0299. Expiration Date: January 31, 2010. Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection. Abstract: FNS 380–1 is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program’s (SNAP) Quality Control (QC) Review Schedule which collects QC and household characteristics data. The information needed to complete this form is obtained from the SNAP case record and state quality control findings. The information is used to monitor and reduce errors, develop policy strategies, and analyze household characteristic data. We estimate that it takes 1.05 hours per response and .0236 hours per record for recordkeeping to complete the form. The annual reporting burden for this collection is 58,065 hours and the annual recordkeeping burden for this collection is 1,322 hours. Overall, the annual reporting and recordkeeping burden associated with the completion of the FNS 380–1 is being decreased from 61,352 hours to 58,868 hours. This is a 2,484 hour decrease in the current PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 burden, which is a result of the State agencies’ reduction in the number of cases being pulled for review over the minimum required review amount. We previously cleared the reporting and recordkeeping burden for this form under Office of Management and Budget (OMB) clearance number 0584–0299. OMB approved the burden through January 31, 2010. Based on the most recent table of active case sample sizes and completion rates (FY 2007), we estimate 56,065 FNS 380–1 worksheets and interviews will now be completed annually. Affected Public: Individuals or Households. Estimated Number of Reporters: 56,065 households. Estimated Number of Reports per Household: 1. Estimated Hours per Report: 1.05 hours. Total Annual Reporting Burden: 58,868 hours. Affected Public: State or local governments. Estimated Number of Respondents and Record keepers: 53 State agencies. Estimated Total Number of Responses per Year: 56,065 responses. Estimated Hours per Reporting Response: 1.05 hours. Estimated Number of Records: 56,065 records. Estimated Number of Records per Record keeper: 1,057 records. Estimated Total Reporting: 58,868. Estimated Hours per Recordkeeping: 0.0236 hour. Estimated Total Annual Record Keeping Burden: 1,322 hours. Total Annual Reporting and Record Keeping Burden: 60,190 hours. Estimated Grand Total: 119,058. Dated: August 11, 2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS), announces that it is amending the FY 2010 solicitation for the Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 (CELCP), originally published on January 2, 2009 (74 FR 82), to implement requirements in the Omnibus Public Lands Management Act of 2009, Public Law 111–11 (March 30, 2009). The program makes the following changes to the program requirements: at least 15% of appropriated funds shall now be available for CELCP projects that benefit National Estuarine Research Reserves; the program allows newlyeligible sources of in-kind match, including lands or interests in lands (easements) held by qualified nongovernmental organizations and costs associated with lands or easements proposed for use as in-kind match, such as land acquisition expenses, land management planning, remediation, restoration or enhancement, that were not previously eligible; the value of inkind match properties will now be based on the appraised value of the land or easement at the time of grant closing (which, for the purposes of this competition, valuation should be conducted within the nine months preceding the award expiration date) rather than at the time the property is acquired or donated; applicants must demonstrate that property sellers are willing participants in negotiations for sale of property at a mutually agreeable price; coastal states and territories must now ensure that proposed projects complement working waterfront needs; greater emphasis will be placed on applicants’ ability to demonstrate successful leveraging of funds; and NOAA may now select projects from this competition for additional FY 2010 funding requested in the President’s Budget as part of EPA’s Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, if appropriated. Due to the amendments to the program, the due date for applications is extended until September 18, 2009. It is anticipated that projects funded under this announcement will still have a grant start date between March 1, 2010, and October 1, 2010. Under this amended solicitation, NOS allows for modifications to applications originally received under the initial announcement, and allows new applications for projects from eligible applicants. Any proposal that was submitted to the initial solicitation within the initial deadline is not required to be resubmitted to be considered under this amendment. However, changes to the solicitation announced by this amendment may impact the viability or scoring of proposals submitted by applicants in response to the initial announcement. Applicants may revise proposals to address these changes; however, any revisions to such proposals must be E:\FR\FM\19AUN1.SGM 19AUN1
