to reduce paperwork and respondent
burden, invites the general public and

other Federal agencies to comment on
revisions to an existing information
collection, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The Office of the
Fiscal Assistant Secretary, within the
Department of the Treasury, is soliciting
comments concerning the application,
reports, and recordkeeping for the Direct
Component and the Centers of
Excellence Research Grants Programs
under the Resources and Ecosystems
Sustainability, Tourist Opportunities,
and Revived Economies of the Gulf
Coast States Act of 2012 (RESTORE
Act). The information collection for
which comments are solicited are
already a part of the approved collection
for RESTORE Act grants, including the
two BABAA Waiver Request Forms,
which implement the Build America,
Buy America Act (‘‘BABAA’’).
DATES: Written comments must be
received on or before July 3, 2023 to be
assured of consideration.
ADDRESSES: Send comments regarding
the burden estimate, or any other aspect
of the information collection, including
suggestions for reducing the burden, by
electronic mail to restoreact@

Recordkeeping for the Direct
Component and the Centers of

under the RESTORE Act.
OMB Control Number: 1505–0250.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Description: The Department of the
Treasury administers the Direct
Component and the Centers of
Excellence Research Grants Program
authorized under the RESTORE Act.
Treasury awards grants for these two
programs from proceeds in connection
with administrative and civil penalties
paid after July 6, 2012, under the
Federal Water Pollution Control Act
relating to the Deepwater Horizon Oil
Spill and deposited into the Gulf Coast
Restoration Trust Fund. Direct
Component grants are awarded to the
States of Alabama, Louisiana,
Mississippi, and Texas, and 23 Florida
counties and 20 Louisiana parishes.
Centers of Excellence grants are
awarded to the States of Alabama,
Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and
Texas. The information collection for
both programs identifies the eligible
recipients; describes proposed activities;
determines an appropriate amount of
funding; ensures compliance with the
RESTORE Act, Treasury’s regulations,

and Federal laws and policies on grants;
tracks grantee progress; and reports on
the effectiveness of the programs.
Section 70914(a) of BABAA prohibits
Direct Component recipients (and
subrecipients, as applicable) from using
RESTORE Act funds to purchase
foreign-sourced iron, steel,
manufactured products, or construction
materials unless Treasury approves a
waiver pursuant to section 70914(b) of
BABAA. On January 13, 2023, Treasury
received emergency clearance from
OMB to update the approved collection
and add two new forms for recipients to
submit requests to waive the new
domestic preference requirements under
BABAA. Treasury requested an
emergency clearance for the forms to be
completed by January 13, 2022, which
was the expiration date of Treasury
OGCR’s six-month general applicability
public interest adjustment period
waiver and therefore was the effective
date of BABAA requirements for
RESTORE Act Direct Component
program. The Agency was delayed in
requesting the clearance from OIRA
because the required waiver information
that must be collected by agencies for
cross-posting waivers to the GSAmanaged Made in America Office
(MIAO) website was finalized on
December 8, 2022. Posting waivers on
the centralized waiver transparency
website is a requirement for federal
agencies to be compliant with the
implementation of BABAA. Treasury
now seeks clearance through the normal
60-day public comment process for
clearance under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of the updated
information collection as required by 5
CFR 1320.8(d).
Treasury has also made substantive
changes to the Multiyear
Implementation Plan Narrative Form
through a consolidation of application
questions to reduce requests for
duplicative information and revised the
requirements of the Milestones and
Measures Application Form, Milestones
Report and Status of Performance
Report that reduces the burden on the
applicant to demonstrate progress made
to achieve the scope of work. No other
changes to the information collection
are proposed by Treasury at this time.
The revised application forms and
supplemental information may be
obtained on Treasury’s RESTORE Act
website at https://home.treasury.gov/
policy-issues/financial-marketsfinancial-institutions-and-fiscal-service/
restore-act.
Form Number: None.
