In order to comply with the
requirements of the National and Community Service Act of 1990, as
amended, P.L. 106-170 (NCSA) and the Government Performance and
Results Act of 1993 (GPRA), the Corporation for National and
Community Services requires programs to submit information about
AmeriCorps members enrolled and the service activities provided
toward specified objectives.
We will not collect information
on programs, as that is the grantees responsibility. We have
streamlined reporting to support the strategic initiatives. The
original approved burden that we have on record is much larger than
462. (Please see attached document for more.) We are also
requesting a name change.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
