‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) 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;
(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 State Councils on Developmental
Disabilities (Councils) are authorized in
Subtitle B, of the Developmental
Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights
Act of 2000 (DD Act), as amended, [42
U.S.C. 15001 et seq.] (The DD Act). The
DD Act requires Councils to submit a
five-year State plan. Section 124(a) [42
U.S.C. 15024(a)], states that: Any State
desiring to receive assistance under this
subtitle shall submit to the Secretary,
and obtain approval of, a 5-year
strategic State plan under this section.
The DD Act regulations outlines
additional guiding requirements in 45
CFR part 1326.30(a), which states that:
In order to receive Federal financial
assistance under this subpart, each
State Developmental Disabilities
Council must prepare and submit to the
Secretary, and have in effect, a State
plan which meets the requirements of
sections 122 and 124 of the Act (42
U.S.C. 6022 and 6024) and these
regulations.

The Council is responsible for the
development, and submission of the
State plan as well as implementation of
the activities described in the plan. The
Council updates the Sate plan annually
during the five years. The State plan
provides information on individuals
with developmental disabilities in the
State, and a description of the services
available to them and their families. The
State plan sets forth the goals and
specific objectives to be achieved by the
State Council in pursuing systems
change and capacity building that result
in empowering people with
developmental disabilities to lead
independent lives within the
community. It describes State priorities,
strategies, and actions, and the
allocation of funds to meet these goals
and objectives. Additionally, the data
collected in the State plan and
submitted to ACL is also used to comply
with the GPRA Modernization Act of
2010 (GPRAMA).
The State Plan is used in three ways.
First, it provides a framework for
citizens, State governments, and other
key stakeholder to provide input and
comments to help shape the goals and
objectives during the development
stage. Secondly, it is used by each
Council as a planning document to
operationalize its goals and strategies.
Finally, it provides information the
Department needs for monitoring and
providing technical assistance to ensure
the Council is compliant.
This is a revision of a currently
approved information collect that
expires March 30, 2023. To ensure the
DD Council State plan is consistent with
the Executive Order on Advancing
Racial Equity and Support for
Underserved Communities Through the
Federal Government and the Executive
Order on Advancing Equality for
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender,
Queer, and Intersex Individuals, ACL
intends to determine whether sexual
orientation and gender identity (SOGI)
data elements need to be adapted prior
to adding them to ensure accessibility of
the questions for individuals with
intellectual and developmental
disabilities.
The proposed data collection tool may
be found on the ACL website for review
at: https://www.acl.gov/about-acl/
public-input.
Estimated Program Burden: ACL
estimates the burden of this collection
of information as follows:
