Title and OMB Number: EAC Progress
Report; 86 FR 73747 (Page 73747–
73748, Document Number: 2021–28199)
Purpose
This proposed information collection
was previously published in the Federal
Register on December 28, 2021 and
allowed 60 days for public comment. In
compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D)
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
of 1995, EAC has submitted to the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) a
request for review and approval of the
information collection listed below. The
purpose of this notice is to allow an
additional 30 days for public comment
from all interested individuals and
organizations.
The EAC Office of Grants
Management (EAC/OGM) is responsible
for distributing, monitoring and
providing technical assistance to states
and grantees on the use of federal funds.
EAC/OGM also reports on how the
funds are spent to Congress, negotiates
indirect cost rates with grantees, and
resolves audit findings on the use of
HAVA funds.
The EAC Progress Report has been
developed for both interim and final
progress reports for grants issued under
HAVA authority. This revised format
builds upon that report for the various
grant awards given by EAC and provides
terminology clarification. The Progress
Report will directly benefit award
recipients by making it easier for them
to administer federal grant and
cooperative agreement programs
through standardization of the types of
information required in progress
reports—thereby reducing their
administrative effort and costs.
Public Comments
We are soliciting public comments to
permit the EAC to:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
information collection is necessary for
the proper functions of the Office of
Grants Management.
• Evaluate the accuracy of our
estimate of burden for this proposed
collection, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
• Minimize the reporting burden on
those who are to respond, including the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
Please note that comments submitted
in response to this Notice are public
record. Before including any detailed
personal information, you should be
aware that your comments as submitted,
including your personal information,
will be available for public review. OMB
approval is requested for 3 years.
Respondents: All EAC grantees.
