Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), the United States Agency for
International Development (USAID), is
announcing that it has submitted a
request to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for emergency approval
of a new information collection to
inform technical approaches to
implementing USAID’s COVID–19
Implementation Plan. If granted, this
emergency approval will be valid for six

SUMMARY:
The
proposed collection would request
reporting from USAID award recipients
(Implementing Partners) of performance
indicators to be submitted through

Jkt 259001
Information will be requested of
contracts and grants in the Global VAX
surge countries (Angola, Coˆte d’Ivoire,
Eswatini, Ghana, Lesotho, Nigeria,
Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania,

and grants receiving more than $500,000
in COVID–19 funds obligated after 9/1/

collection and reporting of performance
indicators by USAID’s IPs will facilitate
adaptive management, strategic
planning, and ensure that COVID–10
response activities are continually
aligned with the Agency’s primary
objectives and the evolving nature of the
pandemic. The data will inform the
strategic and operational approaches of
both the Agency’s Washington offices
and field-based Missions involved in
the COVID–19 response.

USAID estimates an annual time
burden of 333 hours per award or 83
hours per response, assuming most
awards report on a quarterly basis.

will be subject to the information
collection requirements; for these
awards, the time burden is expected to
total 13,653 hours per year, or 6,827

review.
