Corporation for National and Community Service February 2012 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Corporation for National and Community Service (the Corporation), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance 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 (PRA95) (44 U.S.C. Sec. 3506(c)(2)(A)).

Currently, the Corporation is soliciting comments concerning its Segal AmeriCorps Education Award Matching Program Commitment Form. This form is submitted by colleges and universities that provide incentives for AmeriCorps alumni such as matching or partially matching the AmeriCorps Education Award that members receive after successful completion of the AmeriCorps program. Completion of this information collection is required for colleges and universities to obtain approval for information on them to appear on the Segal AmeriCorps Education Awards section of the Corporation for National and Community Service Web site. Copies of the information collection request can be obtained by contacting the office listed in the addresses section of this notice.
