As discussed
with the agency, this approval is for annual project performance
reports, but not quarterly project performance reports. The annual
burden hours for this collection have been reduced accordingly. The
agency is reminded of its obligation to inform the public that the
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
