Expedited Review and Public
Comment: Monitoring and Compliance
for Office of Refugee Resettlement
Care Provider Facilities (OMB #: 0970–
0564)
Office of Refugee Resettlement,
Administration for Children and
Families, Department of Health and
Human Services.
ACTION: Request for public comments.
AGENCY:
The Office of Refugee
Resettlement (ORR), Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services, is requesting expedited review
of an information collection request
from the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB). This information
collection will allow the ORR
Unaccompanied Children (UC) Program
to enhance monitoring efforts at care
provider facilities that are not licensed
by the state. A separate notice will be
published inviting public comments on
the proposed collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: ACF is requesting
emergency review and approval of this
information collection by OMB, as
authorized under 44 U.S.C. 3507
(subsection j). The proposed forms are
necessary to allow the ORR UC Program
to enhance monitoring efforts at care
provider facilities that are not licensed
by the state. The information collected
is essential to the mission of the agency
and an unanticipated event occurred
that could reasonably result in public
harm if normal Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) clearance procedures are
SUMMARY:
followed. A recent proclamation in
Texas (Proclamation by the Governor of
the State of Texas, May 31, 2021) and
recent emergency rule in Florida
(Emergency Rule 65CER21–3, December
10, 2021) has resulted in a large number
of ORR facilities no longer being
licensed by the states. To help mitigate
the issue, ORR plans to perform
quarterly health and safety monitoring
visits to Texas and Florida programs.
The quarterly monitoring visits are in
addition to and do not take the place of
ORR’s existing monitoring activities as
described in UC Policy Guide Section
5.5. In order to implement quarterly
health and safety site visits for
unlicensed programs, ORR is seeking
emergency approval to begin use of
instruments related to this effort as soon
as possible. ORR plans to make minor
edits to 15 existing forms in this
information collection to create the
following alternate versions:
• Unlicensed Facility Site Visit Guide
(Form M–7A–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Personnel File
Checklist (Form M–10A–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Program Director
Questionnaire (Form M–11A–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Clinician
Questionnaire (Form M–11C–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Case Manager
Questionnaire (Form M–11E–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Education Staff
Questionnaire (Form M–11G–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Medical
Coordinator Questionnaire (Form M–
11I–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Youth Care
Worker Questionnaire (Form M–11J–
UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Prevention of
Sexual Abuse Compliance Manager
Staff Questionnaire (Form M–11K–
UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Interpreter
Questionnaire (Form M–11P–UK)
• Unlicensed Facility UC
Questionnaire—Ages 6–12 Years Old
(Forms M–12A–UF and M–12As–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility UC
Questionnaire—Ages 13 and Older
(Forms M–12B–UF and M–12Bs–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility UC
Questionnaire—Ages 5 and Under
(Form M–12E–UF and M–12Es–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Legal Service
Provider Questionnaire (Form M–
13C–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Case Coordinator
Questionnaire (Form M–13E–UF)
Additionally, ORR plans to add the
below form (currently approved under
OMB #0970–0558) to this information
collection as well as the alternate
version listed above to facilitate the
quarterly monitoring on unlicensed
programs.
• Interpreter Questionnaire (Form M–
11P)
Finally, ORR plans to use the
following forms with more than nine
respondents. These were previously
approved by OMB but were removed
from the information collection due to
the number of respondents.
• Unlicensed Facility Monitoring Notes
(Form M–6A–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility UC Case File
Checklist (Form M–7A–UF)
• Unlicensed Facility Onsite
Monitoring Checklist (M–9A–UF)
At this time, ACF is requesting that
OMB grant a 180-day approval for this
request under procedures for expedited
processing. A request for review under
normal procedures will be submitted
within 180 days of the approval for this
request. ACF will invite public
comment through this process. The first
comment period, which invites
comments over a 60-day period, begins
concurrently with the publication of
this notice (see notice titled Proposed
Information Collection Activity;
Monitoring and Compliance for Office of
Refugee Resettlement Care Provider
Facilities (Office of Management and
