Proposed Information Collection
Activity; Comment Request
Proposed Projects:
Title: Application Requirements for
the Low Income Home Energy
Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Model
Plan.
OMB No.: 0970–0075.
Description: States, including the
District of Columbia, tribes, tribal
organizations, and U.S. territories
applying for LIHEAP block grant funds
must, prior to receiving federal funds,
submit an annual application (Model
Plan, ACF–122) that meets the LIHEAP
statutory and regulatory requirements.
In addition to the Model Plan, grantees
are also required to complete the
Mandatory Grant Application SF–424Mandatory, which is the first section of
the Model Plan.
The LIHEAP Model Plan is an
electronic form and is submitted to the
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF), Office of Community
Services (OCS) through the On-line Data
Collection (OLDC) system within
GrantSolutions, which is currently
being used by all LIHEAP grantees to
submit other required LIHEAP reporting
forms. In order to reduce the reporting
burden, all data entries from each
grantee’s prior year’s submission of the
Model Plan in OLDC is saved and repopulated (cloned) into the form for the
following fiscal year’s application. OCS
seeks renewal of this form without any
changes.
Respondents: State, the District of
Columbia, U.S. Territories and Tribal
governments.

National Vaccine Injury Compensation
Program (the program), as required by
the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, as
amended. While the Secretary of HHS is

program, the United States Court of
Federal Claims is charged by statute
with responsibility for considering and
acting upon the petitions.

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 62 / Monday, April 3, 2017 / Notices
For
information about requirements for
filing petitions, and the program in
general, contact the Clerk, United States
Court of Federal Claims, 717 Madison
Place NW., Washington, DC 20005,
(202) 357–6400. For information on

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
program provides a system of no-fault
compensation for certain individuals
who have been injured by specified
childhood vaccines. Subtitle 2 of Title
XXI of the PHS Act, 42 U.S.C. 300aa–
10 et seq., provides that those seeking
compensation are to file a petition with
the U.S. Court of Federal Claims and to
serve a copy of the petition on the
Secretary of HHS, who is named as the
respondent in each proceeding. The
Secretary has delegated this
responsibility under the program to
HRSA. The Court is directed by statute
to appoint special masters who take
evidence, conduct hearings as
appropriate, and make initial decisions
as to eligibility for, and amount of,
compensation.
A petition may be filed with respect
to injuries, disabilities, illnesses,
conditions, and deaths resulting from
vaccines described in the Vaccine Injury
Table (the Table) set forth at 42 CFR
100.3. This Table lists for each covered
childhood vaccine the conditions that
may lead to compensation and, for each
condition, the time period for
occurrence of the first symptom or
manifestation of onset or of significant
aggravation after vaccine
administration. Compensation may also
be awarded for conditions not listed in
the Table and for conditions that are
manifested outside the time periods
specified in the Table, but only if the
petitioner shows that the condition was
caused by one of the listed vaccines.
Section 2112(b)(2) of the PHS Act, 42
U.S.C. 300aa–12(b)(2), requires that
‘‘[w]ithin 30 days after the Secretary
receives service of any petition filed
under section 2111 the Secretary shall
publish notice of such petition in the
Federal Register.’’ Set forth below is a
list of petitions received by HRSA on
February 1, 2017, through February 28,
2017. This list provides the name of
petitioner, city and state of vaccination
(if unknown then city and state of
person or attorney filing claim), and
case number. In cases where the Court
has redacted the name of a petitioner

and/or the case number, the list reflects
such redaction.
Section 2112(b)(2) also provides that
the special master ‘‘shall afford all
interested persons an opportunity to
submit relevant, written information’’
relating to the following:
1. The existence of evidence ‘‘that
there is not a preponderance of the
evidence that the illness, disability,
injury, condition, or death described in
the petition is due to factors unrelated
to the administration of the vaccine
described in the petition,’’ and
2. Any allegation in a petition that the
petitioner either:
a. ‘‘[S]ustained, or had significantly
aggravated, any illness, disability,
injury, or condition not set forth in the
Vaccine Injury Table but which was
caused by’’ one of the vaccines referred
to in the Table, or
b. ‘‘[S]ustained, or had significantly
aggravated, any illness, disability,
injury, or condition set forth in the
Vaccine Injury Table the first symptom
or manifestation of the onset or
significant aggravation of which did not
occur within the time period set forth in
the Table but which was caused by a
vaccine’’ referred to in the Table.
In accordance with Section
2112(b)(2), all interested persons may
submit written information relevant to
the issues described above in the case of
the petitions listed below. Any person
choosing to do so should file an original
and three (3) copies of the information
with the Clerk of the U.S. Court of
Federal Claims at the address listed
above (under the heading FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT), with a copy to
HRSA addressed to Director, Division of
Injury Compensation Programs,
Healthcare Systems Bureau, 5600
Fishers Lane, 08N146B, Rockville, MD
20857. The Court’s caption (Petitioner’s
Name v. Secretary of Health and
Human Services) and the docket
number assigned to the petition should
be used as the caption for the written
submission. Chapter 35 of title 44,
United States Code, related to
paperwork reduction, does not apply to
information required for purposes of
carrying out the program.

occurrence of the first symptom or manifestation of onset or of
significant aggravation after vaccine administration. Compensation may
also be awarded for conditions not listed in the Table and for
conditions that are manifested outside the time periods specified in
the Table, but only if the petitioner shows that the condition was
caused by one of the listed vaccines.
Section 2112(b)(2) of the PHS Act, 42 U.S.C. 300aa-12(b)(2),
requires that ``[w]ithin 30 days after the Secretary receives service
of any petition filed under section 2111 the Secretary shall publish
notice of such petition in the Federal Register.'' Set forth below is a
list of petitions received by HRSA on February 1, 2017, through
February 28, 2017. This list provides the name of petitioner, city and
state of vaccination (if unknown then city and state of person or
attorney filing claim), and case number. In cases where the Court has
redacted the name of a petitioner and/or the case number, the list
reflects such redaction.
Section 2112(b)(2) also provides that the special master ``shall
afford all interested persons an opportunity to submit relevant,
written information'' relating to the following:
1. The existence of evidence ``that there is not a preponderance of
the evidence that the illness, disability, injury, condition, or death
described in the petition is due to factors unrelated to the
administration of the vaccine described in the petition,'' and
2. Any allegation in a petition that the petitioner either:
a. ``[S]ustained, or had significantly aggravated, any illness,
disability, injury, or condition not set forth in the Vaccine Injury
Table but which was caused by'' one of the vaccines referred to in the
Table, or
b. ``[S]ustained, or had significantly aggravated, any illness,
disability, injury, or condition set forth in the Vaccine Injury Table
the first symptom or manifestation of the onset or significant
aggravation of which did not occur within the time period set forth in
the Table but which was caused by a vaccine'' referred to in the Table.
In accordance with Section 2112(b)(2), all interested persons may
submit written information relevant to the issues described above in
the case of the petitions listed below. Any person choosing to do so
should file an original and three (3) copies of the information with
the Clerk of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims at the address listed
above (under the heading For Further Information Contact), with a copy
to HRSA addressed to Director, Division of Injury Compensation
Programs, Healthcare Systems Bureau, 5600 Fishers Lane, 08N146B,
Rockville, MD 20857. The Court's caption (Petitioner's Name v.
Secretary of Health and Human Services) and the docket number assigned
to the petition should be used as the caption for the written
submission. Chapter 35 of title 44, United States Code, related to
paperwork reduction, does not apply to information required for
purposes of carrying out the program.
Dated: March 28, 2017.

Acting Administrator.
