Approved for
three months to enable ACTION to prepare four packages, one for
each program (OAVP, VISTA, YVA, and Title I Part C), for OMB
review. Each sumission package should include all forms involved in
grant application, including the coversheet, the budgetary data,
the program narrative, and the assurances. This approval does not
include question 3.a. on the VISTA project narrative, requesting an
estimate of the percentage of low-income people in the project
area. This question would involve excessive burden and unnecessary
duplication and therefore, must be deleted. This approval also
requires a change to the question on each project narrative "Are
any of your resources presently provided by ACTION? If so, specify
program, amount, and dates." This must be changed to request only a
"YES" or "NO" answer. Requiring applicants to specify the program
amounts, and dates would create excessive burden in reporting
information which should already be available to ACTION. This
question must be changed on each project narrative (VISTA question
5.b., YVA question 3.b., OAVP question 4.b., Title I, Part C
question 5.b.).
