Tissue Engineering No new entries at this time. 1 All standard titles in this table conform to the style requirements of the respective organizations. IV. List of Recognized Standards FDA maintains the current list of FDA Recognized Consensus Standards in a searchable database that may be accessed at https:// www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/ cfdocs/cfStandards/search.cfm. Such standards are those that FDA has recognized by notice published in the Federal Register or that FDA has decided to recognize but for which recognition is pending (because a periodic notice has not yet appeared in the Federal Register). FDA will announce additional modifications and revisions to the list of recognized consensus standards, as needed, in the Federal Register once a year, or more often if necessary. V. Recommendation of Standards for Recognition by FDA Any person may recommend consensus standards as candidates for recognition under section 514 of the FD&C Act by submitting such recommendations, with reasons for the recommendation, to CDRHStandardsStaff@fda.hhs.gov. To be considered, such recommendations should contain, at a minimum, the information available at https:// www.fda.gov/medical-devices/deviceadvice-comprehensive-regulatoryassistance/standards-and-conformityassessment-program#process.

Should any of these pilot programs become permanent, HRSA will seek OMB clearance for these programs using a mechanism outside of this generic umbrella clearance.

HRSA would only request OMB approval for collections under this generic umbrella collection if the collection is lowburden, uncontroversial, and is a onetime application. Furthermore, if Congress appropriates additional funding for such a program or HRSA plans to use the information from the applications for policy decisions not related to funding awards, HRSA will prepare a standard information collection request for that program, which will include the required 60- and 30-day Federal Register notices.

Information collections under this umbrella generic collection would be applications for funding (solely providing applicants with an opportunity to demonstrate their capabilities in accordance with HRSA’s statement of work or selection criteria and other related information) and forms required for monitoring funding recipients. Following the award, the awardee may also be required to provide progress reports or additional documents. Likely Respondents: Each fast-track ICR under this generic umbrella ICR will specify the manner that respondents will be enlisted. Respondents will vary by the specific program and are determined by each program’s eligibility, to include but are not limited to the following: health providers and other paraprofessionals, health facilities, accredited health professions schools or programs, state and local governments, and other eligible entities. Respondents will be recruited by means of information listed on HRSA’s website, or advertisements in public venues. The privacy of any potential or actual respondents will be preserved to the extent requested by participants and as permitted by law. Once applicants are selected and awards are made, these awardees will be respondents for monitoring collections such as progress reports. Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the information requested. This includes the time needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the information. HRSA intends to use this generic umbrella ICR for applications with a low burden and monitoring awardees. To estimate the burden for this collection, HRSA estimated how much time it would take for a respondent to complete a two-page application with typical fields used in current collections that may fall under this generic umbrella ICR. HRSA then calculated the average burden estimate from these ICRs for the purpose of the estimate for this ICR. To estimate the burden for monitoring funding recipients, HRSA estimated how much time it would take for funding recipients to complete the average two-page form used for program monitoring.

    Information Collection Request Title: Applications for and 
Monitoring of New, One-Time Funding Programs Administered by the Health 
Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)--OMB Control No. 0906-

    Abstract: HRSA is seeking approval for a generic umbrella clearance 
to collect applications for awards for HRSA-funded programs that 
provide one-time funding, including pilot programs. Should any of these 
pilot programs become permanent, HRSA will seek OMB clearance for these 
programs using a mechanism outside of this generic umbrella clearance. 
OMB guidance allows for the use of generic packages in cases where 
there may be a need for a data collection, but the agency ``cannot 
determine the details of the specific individual collections until a 
later time.'' \1\ HRSA will only use this collection for HRSA-funded 
programs that provide one-time funding, including pilot programs. HRSA 
would only request OMB approval for collections under this generic 
umbrella collection if the collection is low-burden, uncontroversial, 
and is a one-time application.

    Furthermore, if Congress appropriates additional funding for such a 
program or HRSA plans to use the information from the applications for 
policy decisions not related to funding awards, HRSA will prepare a 
standard information collection request for that program, which will 
include the required 60- and 30-day Federal Register notices.

umbrella collection would enable HRSA to collect information from 
individual and site applicants and enable HRSA to make selection 
determinations for one-time awards in a timely manner.
    Information collections under this umbrella generic collection 
would be applications for funding (solely providing applicants with an 
opportunity to demonstrate their capabilities in accordance with HRSA's 
statement of work or selection criteria and other related information) 
and forms required for monitoring funding recipients. Following the 
award, the awardee may also be required to provide progress reports or 
additional documents.
    Likely Respondents: Each fast-track ICR under this generic umbrella 
ICR will specify the manner that respondents will be enlisted. 
Respondents will vary by the specific program and are determined by 
each program's eligibility, to include but are not limited to the 
following: health providers and other paraprofessionals, health 
facilities, accredited health professions schools or programs, state 
and local governments, and other eligible entities.
    Respondents will be recruited by means of information listed on 
HRSA's website, or advertisements in public venues. The privacy of any 
potential or actual respondents will be preserved to the extent 
requested by participants and as permitted by law.
    Once applicants are selected and awards are made, these awardees 
will be respondents for monitoring collections such as progress 
reports.
    Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by 
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the 
information requested. This includes the time needed to review 
instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and 
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying 
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and 
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to 
a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and 
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise 
disclose the information.
    HRSA intends to use this generic umbrella ICR for applications with 
a low burden and monitoring awardees. To estimate the burden for this 
collection, HRSA estimated how much time it would take for a respondent 
to complete a two-page application with typical fields used in current 
collections that may fall under this generic umbrella ICR. HRSA then 
calculated the average burden estimate from these ICRs for the purpose 
of the estimate for this ICR. To estimate the burden for monitoring 
funding recipients, HRSA estimated how much time it would take for 
funding recipients to complete the average two-page form used for 
program monitoring. The total burden hours over a 3-year period 
estimated for this ICR are summarized in the table below.
