Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 10 / Friday, January 15, 2010 / Notices
EDA is considering several steps to
address the collection of the remaining
measures.
Following is a list of the steps EDA
will take to address the current data
collection gaps.
(1) TAACs were instructed to upgrade
their Adobe software to facilitate data
collection. TAACs that only have Adobe
Reader can use the Adobe fillable forms,
but they cannot save the information on
their computers. Upgrading the Adobe
software will allow the remaining
TAACs to save electronic records of the
forms, and will allow EDA to
automatically upload information into
its management information system and
no longer require EDA to re-type all of
the information into the system.
(2) EDA will issue several new
procedures and guidelines to simplify
data collection through a revised
template for the quarterly TAAC activity
reports.
(3) As resources become available, the
management information system (MIS)
will be expanded to facilitate reporting.
(4) EDA is in the process of seeking
OMB clearance for a revised Form ED–
840P to collect all required data.

Conclusion
Overall, there has been an increase in
the demand for the TAAF Program in
FY 2009, as demonstrated by the
increase in the number of petitions for
certification and Adjustment Proposals
submitted to EDA.
Due to the spike in petitions and
Adjustment Proposals, EDA experienced
challenges in meeting the new 40-day
processing deadline for petitions
accepted for filing immediately after the
new rule’s implementation. However,
since the fourth quarter of FY 2009, the
average processing time for petitions
declined below the 40-day requirement.
New TAAF program staff members are
expected to help improve processing
time even further for FY 2010.
TAACs effectively targeted small and
medium-sized firms in FY 2009. The
average employment, net sales, and
productivity of firms certified in FY
2009 declined in comparison to the
previous fiscal year. More than half of
all firms proposed to implement a
marketing/sales project or production/
engineering project in their Adjustment
Proposals.
Of the 14 measures required for
reporting, EDA was unable to provide
any information on four measures, and
provided limited information on
another four measures. EDA is taking
steps to collect and report on all of the
missing measures for the FY 2010
Annual Report.
