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
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, ACL/ILA is publishing
notice of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following collection
of information, ACL/ILA invites
comments on: (1) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of ACL/
ILA’s functions, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of ACL/ILA 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
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
The Independent Living Program is
required by federal statute and
regulation requires the collection of this
information every three years. The
three-year period for the next SPIL is FY
2018–2020. The SPIL provided in

writing to the Administration for
Community Living, Administration on
Disabilities, Independent Living
Administration. The five core services
are: Advocacy, information and referral,
independent living skills training, peer
counseling, and transition services.
WIOA included three prongs to the 5th
core service:
• Facilitating the transition of
individuals with significant disabilities
from nursing homes and other
institutions to home and communitybased residences, with the requisite
supports and services;
• Provide assistance to individuals
with significant disabilities who are at
risk of entering institutions so that the
individuals may remain in the
community, and
• Facilitate the transition of youth
who are individuals with significant
disabilities, who were eligible for
individualized education programs
under section 614(d) of the Individuals
with Disabilities Act (20 U.S.C.
1414(d)), and who have completed their
secondary education or otherwise left
school, to postsecondary life.
ACL estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows: 56
SPIL respond annually which should be
an average burden of 60 hours for each
grantee. The aggregate hour burden for
all grantees is an estimated 3,360 hours
(56 grantees × 60 hours each). These
estimated hours include the time
required for reading, studying and
planning for the new SPIL; conducting
required public hearings; gathering and
reviewing pertinent information;
completing the SPIL assurances and
narrative sections; reviewing draft and
final versions of the completed SPIL;
and submission of the final SPIL to
ACL.
