    Needs and Uses: In order to effectively administer and monitor its 
economic development assistance programs, EDA collects certain 
information from applications for, and recipients of, EDA investment 
assistance. The collection of this information is required to ensure 
the recipient is complying with EDA's CEDS requirements. A CEDS is 
required for an eligible applicant to qualify for an EDA investment 
assistance under its Public Works, Economic Adjustment, and certain 
planning programs, and is a prerequisite for a region's designation by 
EDA as an Economic Development District (see 13 CFR 303, 305.2, and 
307.2 of EDA's regulations).
    A CEDS emerges from a continuing planning process developed and 
driven by a public sector planning organization by engaging a broad-
based and diverse set of stakeholders to address the economic problems 
and potential of a region. The CEDS should include information about 
how and to what extent stakeholder input and support was solicited. 
Information on how the planning organization collaborated with its 
diverse set of stakeholders (including the public sector, private 
interests, non-profits, educational institutions, and community 
organizations) in the development of the CEDS should be included. In 
accordance with the regulations governing the CEDS (see 13 CFR 303.7), 
a CEDS must contain a summary background, a SWOT Analysis, Strategic 
Direction/Action Plan, and an Evaluation Framework. In addition, the 
CEDS must incorporate the concept of economic resilience (i.e., the 
ability to avoid, withstand, and recover from economic shifts, natural 
disasters, etc.). EDA is not proposing any changes to the current 
information collection request.
