SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Information Collection Request Title: SWP Form for Use with Applications to BHW Research and Training Grants and Cooperative Agreements, OMB No. 0906–xxxx–NEW Abstract: BHW requires applicants for training and research grants and cooperative agreements to submit a work plan that describes the timeframes and deliverables required during the grant period of performance to address each of the needs detailed in the Purpose and Need section of the application, as required in the Notice of Funding Opportunity announcement. Applicants are currently able to submit work plans in a non-standardized format. In order to standardize the data provided by applicants to make informed decisions about funding and assist with monitoring awardee progress, BHW plans to require applicants to complete a SWP form in lieu of submitting a work plan in the applicant’s own format. Applicants will use the SWP form when they submit their proposals, and grantees and Project Officers will use the SWP information to assist in monitoring progress once HRSA makes the awards.

There was one public comment and it was thoroughly addressed. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The information collected by the SWP form is necessary to standardize and streamline the data used by HRSA in reviewing applications and monitoring awardees. The form will ask applicants to provide a description of the activities or steps the recipient will take to achieve each of the objectives proposed during the entire period of performance. The current variation in formats and data submitted by applicants reduces efficiency in reviewing, awarding, and monitoring each project, so this change will remedy that inefficiency. In addition, seeking OMB approval comports with the regulatory requirement imposed by 45 CFR 75.206(a), Paperwork clearances. The proposed SWP form will be used to provide information to assess applications for awards including ranking applications as part of the grant review process. BHW will also use the information to assess whether current recipients of grant funding have met statutory and programmatic requirements. Likely Respondents: Respondents will be applicants to HRSA’s research and training programs in BHW. Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the information requested. This includes the time needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose E:\FR\FM\14NON1.SGM 14NON1 61916 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 220 / Thursday, November 14, 2019 / Notices of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the information.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Information Collection Request Title: SWP Form for Use with 
Applications to BHW Research and Training Grants and Cooperative 
Agreements, OMB No. 0906-xxxx-NEW
    Abstract: BHW requires applicants for training and research grants 
and cooperative agreements to submit a work plan that describes the 
timeframes and deliverables required during the grant period of 
performance to address each of the needs detailed in the Purpose and 
Need section of the application, as required in the Notice of Funding 
Opportunity announcement. Applicants are currently able to submit work 
plans in a non-standardized format.
    In order to standardize the data provided by applicants to make 
informed decisions about funding and assist with monitoring awardee 
progress, BHW plans to require applicants to complete a SWP form in 
lieu of submitting a work plan in the applicant's own format. 
Applicants will use the SWP form when they submit their proposals, and 
grantees and Project Officers will use the SWP information to assist in 
monitoring progress once HRSA makes the awards.
    A 60-day notice was published in the Federal Register on June 19, 
2019, Vol. 84, No. 118, pp.28560-28561. There was one public comment 
and it was thoroughly addressed.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The information collected 
by the SWP form is necessary to standardize and streamline the data 
used by HRSA in reviewing applications and monitoring awardees. The 
form will ask applicants to provide a description of the activities or 
steps the recipient will take to achieve each of the objectives 
proposed during the entire period of performance. The current variation 
in formats and data submitted by applicants reduces efficiency in 
reviewing, awarding, and monitoring each project, so this change will 
remedy that inefficiency. In addition, seeking OMB approval comports 
with the regulatory requirement imposed by 45 CFR 75.206(a), Paperwork 
clearances.
    The proposed SWP form will be used to provide information to assess 
applications for awards including ranking applications as part of the 
grant review process. BHW will also use the information to assess 
whether current recipients of grant funding have met statutory and 
programmatic requirements.
    Likely Respondents: Respondents will be applicants to HRSA's 
research and training programs in BHW.
    Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by 
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the 
information requested. This includes the time needed to review 
instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and 
systems for the purpose

of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and 
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to 
train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of 
information; to search data sources; to complete and review the 
collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the 
information. The total annual burden hours estimated for this ICR are
