Notice. AGENCY: ACTION: The Inter-American Foundation (IAF), as part of its continuing efforts to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

Currently, the IAF is soliciting comments concerning the information collection of the grant application concept note. The purpose of this form is to reduce the time needed to submit and review a proposal for IAF grant funds. Proponents spend a lot of time completing a proposal for grant funds, and IAF Foundation Representatives spend a lot of time reviewing proposals. Internal staff members are not able to read through all the proposals received each year as a result of the volume of submissions and the length of the materials.

60-Day Notice for the ``IAF Grant Application Concept Note''

AGENCY: Inter-American Foundation.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Inter-American Foundation (IAF), as part of its continuing 
efforts to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and 
federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or 
continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995. This program helps ensure that requested data is 
provided in the desired format; reporting burden (time and financial 
resources) is minimized; collection instruments are clearly understood; 
and the impact of collection requirements on respondents is properly 
assessed. Currently, the IAF is soliciting comments concerning the 
information collection of the grant application concept note. The 
purpose of this form is to reduce the time needed to submit and review 
a proposal for IAF grant funds. Proponents spend a lot of time 
completing a proposal for grant funds, and IAF Foundation 
Representatives spend a lot of time reviewing proposals. Internal staff 
members are not able to read through all the proposals received each 
year as a result of the volume of submissions and the length of the 
materials. Given the high proportion of proposals that do not progress 
to the ``pre-selected'' phase of the review process, there is an 
opportunity to streamline the initial application requirements to only 
require the key information a Foundation Representative needs to decide 
whether or not a project is viable for IAF to fund.

DATES: Written comments must be submitted to the office listed in the 
address section below within 60 days from the date of this publication 
in the Federal Register.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Natalia Mandrus, Inter-American Foundation, 
via email to [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The IAF is particularly interested in 
comments which:

--Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary 
for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
--Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
--Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and
--Can help the agency minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, including through the use of 
appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., 
permitting electronic submission of responses.

Associate General Counsel.
