Proposed Information Collection
Activity; Comment Request
Proposed Projects:
Title: Renewal of Office of
Community Services (OCS) Community
Economic Development (CED) Standard
Reporting Format
OMB No.: 0970–0386
Description: The Office of Community
Services (OCS) will continue collecting
key information about projects funded
through the Community Economic
Development (CED) program. The
legislative requirement for this program
is in Title IV of the Community
Opportunities, Accountability and
Training and Educational Services Act
(COATS Human Services
Reauthorization Act) of October 27,
1998, Public Law 105–285, section
680(b) as amended. The reporting
format, Performance Progress Report
(PPR), collects information concerning
the outcomes and management of CED
projects. OCS will use the data to
critically review the overall design and
effectiveness of the program.
The PPR will continue to be
administered to all active grantees of the
CED program. Grantees will be required
to use this reporting tool for their semiannual reports to be submitted twice a
year. The current PPR replaced both the
annual questionnaire and other semi-
annual reporting formats, which
resulted in an overall reduction in
burden for the grantees while
significantly improving the quality of
the data collected by OCS. OCS seeks to
renew this PPR to continue to collect
quality data from grantees. To ensure
the burden on grantees is not increased,
all questions on the current PPR will
remain the same—we propose adding
only one question to the PPR regarding
the total number of jobs grantees are
creating with grant funds. Many
grantees have asked about this element
on the current PPR and currently do not
have a place to report that information.
This is information that most grantees
are already collecting. Adding this field
will allow grantees to provide this
information in a consistent format and
allow OCS to more accurately reflect the
total number of jobs created through the
CED program. Since grantees are already
familiar with the current format and
elements, and all questions on the PPR
will remain the same (with one added
question based on grantee feedback),
there will be no additional burden on
grantees.
Respondents: Current CED grantees.
