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 the PRA and includes agency
requests or requirements that members
of the public submit reports, keep
records, or provide information to a
third party. 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 is publishing a notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following
collection of information, ACL invites
comments on our burden estimates or
any other aspect of this collection of
information, including:
(1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the
proper performance of ACL’s functions,
including whether the information will
have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of ACL’s estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used
to determine burden estimates;
(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 National Institute on Disability,
Independent Living, and Rehabilitation
Research (NIDILRR) Grantee Annual
Performance Reporting (APR) and Final
Report Forms collect data from all
NIDILRR Grantees via a web-based
reporting system and addresses specific
HHS regulations that shall be met by
applicants and grantees. HHS
regulations that apply to NIDILRR Grant
programs include Part 75 of the Uniform
Administrative Requirements, Cost
Principles and Audit requirements for
HHS Awards. Specifically, § 75.342
which requires grantees to submit an
annual performance report or, for the
last year of a project, a final report that
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

evaluates: (a) The grantee’s progress in
achieving the objectives in its approved
application, (b) the effectiveness of the
project in meeting the purposes of the
program, and (c) the results of research
and related activities.
Additionally, GPRA requires all
federal agencies to implement
performance measurement systems that
include: (1) A five-year strategic plan,
(2) an annual performance plan, and (3)
an annual performance report.
Currently, NIDILRR has met these
requirements and has established
performance indicators to meet the
reporting requirements. The NIDILRR
APR System currently includes
reporting forms for all 10 of NIDILRR’s
grant programs.
Reporting forms for all 10 programs
are web-based. Data collected through
these forms (a) Facilitate program
planning and management; (b) respond
to ACL/HHS Grants Policy
Administration Manual (GPAM)
requirements and (c) respond to the
reporting requirements of the
Government Performance and Results
Act (GPRA) of 1993.
NIDILRR uses the information
gathered annually from these data
collection efforts to provide Congress
with the information mandated in
GPRA, provide OMB information
required for assessment of performance
on GPRA indicators, and support its
evaluation activities. Data collected
from the 10 grant programs will provide
a national description of the research
activities of approximately 255 NIDILRR
grantees. NIDILRR’s GPRA plan must
collect information to meet the
following mandates: (a) Implementation
of a comprehensive plan that includes
goals and objectives; (b) measurement of
the program’s progress in meeting its
objectives; and (c) submission of an
annual report on program performance,
including plans for program
improvement, as appropriate. The data
collection system addresses nearly all of
the agency’s GPRA indicators, either
directly or by providing information for
the agency’s other review processes.
The proposed data collection tools
may be found on the ACL website for
review at https://www.acl.gov/aboutacl/public-input.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal

``Collection of information'' is defined in the PRA and includes agency

With respect to the following collection of information, ACL
invites comments on our burden estimates or any other aspect of this

The National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and
Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) Grantee Annual Performance Reporting
(APR) and Final Report Forms collect data from all NIDILRR Grantees via
a web-based reporting system and addresses specific HHS regulations
that shall be met by applicants and grantees. HHS regulations that
apply to NIDILRR Grant programs include Part 75 of the Uniform
Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit requirements for
HHS Awards. Specifically, Sec. 75.342 which requires grantees to
submit an annual performance report or, for the last year of a project,
a final report that evaluates: (a) The grantee's progress in achieving
the objectives in its approved application, (b) the effectiveness of
the project in meeting the purposes of the program, and (c) the results
of research and related activities.
Additionally, GPRA requires all federal agencies to implement
performance measurement systems that include: (1) A five-year strategic
plan, (2) an annual performance plan, and (3) an annual performance
report. Currently, NIDILRR has met these requirements and has
established performance indicators to meet the reporting requirements.
The NIDILRR APR System currently includes reporting forms for all 10 of
NIDILRR's grant programs.
Reporting forms for all 10 programs are web-based. Data collected
through these forms (a) Facilitate program planning and management; (b)
respond to ACL/HHS Grants Policy Administration Manual (GPAM)
requirements and (c) respond to the reporting requirements of the
Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993.
NIDILRR uses the information gathered annually from these data
collection efforts to provide Congress with the information mandated in
GPRA, provide OMB information required for assessment of performance on
GPRA indicators, and support its evaluation activities. Data collected
from the 10 grant programs will provide a national description of the
research activities of approximately 255 NIDILRR grantees. NIDILRR's
GPRA plan must collect information to meet the following mandates: (a)
Implementation of a comprehensive plan that includes goals and
objectives; (b) measurement of the program's progress in meeting its
objectives; and (c) submission of an annual report on program
performance, including plans for program improvement, as appropriate.
The data collection system addresses nearly all of the agency's GPRA
indicators, either directly or by providing information for the
agency's other review processes.
The proposed data collection tools may be found on the ACL website
for review at https://www.acl.gov/about-acl/public-input.
