Title of Proposal: Electronic
Stakeholder Survey.
OMB Control Number: XXXXpending.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Electronic Stakeholder Survey is
necessary to collect information for
demonstrating the outputs and
outcomes of meetings, conferences, and
other activities presented by HUD’s
Office for International and
Philanthropic Innovation (IPI).
The Office for International and
Philanthropic Innovation (IPI) supports
HUD’s efforts to find new solutions and
align ideas and resources by working
across public, private, and civil sectors
to further HUD’s mission. IPI works
towards these goals by developing
networks and facilitating collaboration
of key partners and resources. To gather
feedback on the various meetings,
conferences, and other events and
activities IPI presents, it is necessary to
survey participants at both immediate
and medium-term intervals. IPI is
seeking to understand the effectiveness
of these events in sharing information,
connecting participants, establishing
plans for coordination, and influencing
programmatic, research, and funding
agendas and resources. As we increase
the effectiveness of these cross-sector
convenings, HUD benefits from
increased access to and synthesis of
information regarding successes and
failures in domestic and global housing
and urban development. Residents and
communities across the country also
benefit from the increased impact
achieved by alignment of cross-sector
resources and ideas.
Members of affected public:
Individuals.

Title:
National Institutes for Water Resources
(NIWR) USGS Competitive Grant
Program.
OMB Control Number: 1028–0095.
Abstract: The NIWR–USGS National
Competitive Grant Program issues an
annual call for proposals to support
research on water problems and issues
of a regional or interstate nature beyond
those of concern only to a single state
and which relate to specific program
priorities identified jointly by the USGS
and the state water resources research
institutes authorized by the Water
Resources Research Act of 1984, as
amended (42 U.S.C. 10301 et seq.). The
program is conducted in conjunction
with the State Water Resources Research
Institutes. The NIWR cooperates with
the USGS in establishing total
programmatic direction, reporting on
the activities of the Institutes,
coordinating and facilitating regional
research and information and
technology transfer, and in operating the
NIWR–USGS Student Internship
Program. Any investigator at an
accredited institution of higher learning
in the United States is eligible to apply
for a grant through a water research
institute or center established under the
provisions of the Act. Proposals
involving substantial collaboration
between the USGS and university
scientists are encouraged. Proposals
may be for projects of 1 to 3 years in
duration and may request up to
$250,000 in federal funds. Successful
applicants must match each dollar of
the federal grant with one dollar from
nonfederal sources. An annual progress
and final technical report for all projects
is required at the end of the project
period. This program is authorized by
the Water Resources Research Act of
1984, as amended (42 U.S.C. 10303(g)).
No questions of a ‘‘sensitive’’ nature
are asked. We intend to release the
project abstracts and primary
investigators for awarded/funded
projects only.
Frequency of Collection: Annually.
Affected Public: Research
investigators at accredited institutions
of higher education.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary
(necessary to receive benefits).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Estimated Number and Description of
Respondents: We expect to receive
approximately 65 applications and
award 7 grants per year.
Estimated Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Hour’’ Burden: We
estimate the public reporting burden to
be 72 hours per response. This includes
60 hours per applicant to prepare and
submit the application; and 12 hours
(total) per grantee to complete the
interim and final technical reports.
Annual Burden Hours: 3,984.
Estimated Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Non-Hour Cost’’: We
have not identified any ‘‘non-hour cost’’
burdens associated with this collection
of information.
Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an
agency may not conduct or sponsor and
you are not required to respond to a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
Comments: We are soliciting

proposed collection of information is
necessary for the agency to perform its
duties, including whether the
information is useful; (b) the accuracy of
the agency’s estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information;
(c) how to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d) how
to minimize the burden on the
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
