Department of Justice sponsoring the
collection: Form Number: 1122–0020.

(4) Affected public who will be asked

abstract: Primary: The affected public
includes applicants to OVW grant

amended. These include States,

courts or court-based programs, State
sexual assault coalitions, State domestic
violence coalitions; territorial domestic
violence or sexual assault coalitions,
tribal coalitions, community-based
organizations, and non-profit,
nongovernmental organizations. The
purpose of the solicitation template is to
provide a framework to develop
program-specific announcements
soliciting applications for funding. A
program solicitation outlines the
specifics of the funding program;
describes the requirements for
eligibility; instructs an applicant on the
necessary components of an application
under a specific program (e.g. project
activities and timeline, proposed
budget): And provides registration
dates, due dates, and instructions on
how to apply within the designated
application system. OVW is proposing
revisions to the current OMB-approved
solicitation template to reduce
duplicative language, employ plain

a narrative, budget and other materials
for the application and, if required, to
coordinate with and develop a
memorandum of understanding with
requisite project partners.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the

associated with this collection is 54,000
hours.

manufacturing facilities owned and
operated by Columbian Chemicals (now
‘‘Birla’’). The Consent Decree requires
Defendant to reduce harmful SO2, NOX,
and PM emissions through the
installation and operation of pollution
controls at its North Bend, Louisiana
and Hickok, Kansas facilities. Defendant
also agreed to spend $375,000 to fund
environmental mitigation projects that
will further reduce emissions and
benefit communities adversely affected
by the pollution from the facilities, and
pay a civil penalty of $650,000.
The proposed First Amendment to
Consent Decree would, if entered by the
Court, make modifications to the
Consent Decree to address and resolve
claims by Defendant that force majeure
events caused delays in meeting certain
compliance deadlines at Defendant’s
Borger, Texas facility. The modifications
extend certain deadlines in the Consent
Decree, while maintaining Defendant’s
ultimate obligation to install and
operate pollution controls at its
facilities.

a period for public comment on the
proposed First Amendment to Consent
Decree. Comments should be addressed
