HHS' request for
approval to require 32 copies of applications for fast-track grants
on AIDS, has been approved for a period not to exceed one year, in
light of (a) the extraordinary nature of the AIDS crisis, and (b)
the circumstances surrounding the fast-track grant approval. Within
one year, however, HHS must develop a plan to reduce the number of
copies required and submit this plan to OMB.
