The information collected on the Application Attachment to SF-424 will be used to evaluate the merit of each applicant's request for funding. Statistical Methods are not employed.
The COPS Office was appropriated $1 Billion under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The COPS Office needs to make modifications to this currently approved information collection to obtain additional data from applicants under the COPS Hiring Recovery Program (CHRP). In addition, the COPS Office anticipates receiving more applications in FY 2009 because of this Recovery program than is currently approved for this information collection. We request to increase the annual burden hours from 6,200 to 16,200. This figure includes the Recovery grant applications as well as all other applicants for FY 2009 funding under other COPS programs. COPS applicants that are applying for other programs in FY 2009 will still use this form under the currently approved questions, not the additional questions asked of Recovery program applicants. We have added the CHRP grant application below as a supporting form. CHRP grantees will be able to apply online and thus the attached form is a MS Word version of what will ultimately be online.
