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
as and includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. The PRA
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;
E:\FR\FM\30AUN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 165 / Monday, August 30, 2021 / Notices
(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.
ACL contracts with a national legal
assistance resource center, the National
Center on Law and Elder Rights, to

the contract, ACL provides aging,
disability, and related legal

demonstration projects regarding

requested is for ACL to ensure that the
resource center creates and prioritizes
the training, case consultations and
technical assistance resources it was
contracted to provide and to ensure that
the center targets the contractually
designated aging network practitioners
about the priority subject matters. This
approach enables ACL to make datainformed decisions about the
deployment of its resource center assets.
These data are necessary for ACL to
evaluate contractual compliance with
established performance indicators.
These metrics include quantifiable
increases in uptake by stakeholders of
training, case consultation and technical
assistance, and measures of satisfaction
with and perceived benefit from these
services. For example, the metrics
measure successful problem resolution
as a result of the services provided and
quantifiable data on fulfillment of
