in conjunction with 5 CFR 1320, which provides information
on coverage, definitions, and other matters of procedure and
interpretation under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
1. Agency/Subagency originating request
Provide the name of the agency or subagency
originating the request. For most cabinet-level
agencies, a subagency designation is also necessary.
For non-cabinet agencies, the subagency designation is
generally unnecessary.
2. OMB control number
a. If the information collection in this request has
previously received or now has an OMB control or
comment number, enter the number.
b. Check "None" if the information collection in this
request has not previously received an OMB control
number. Enter the four digit agency code for your
agency.
3. Type of information collection (check one)
a. Check "New collection" when the collection has not
previously been used or sponsored by the agency.
b. Check "Revision" when the collection is currently
approved by OMB, and the agency request includes a
material change to the collection instrument,
instructions, its frequency of collection, or the use to
which the information is to be put.
c. Check "Extension" when the collection is currently
approved by OMB, and the agency wishes only to
extend the approval past the current expiration date
without making any material change in the collection
instrument, instructions, frequency of collection, or the
use to which the information is to be put.
d. Check "Reinstatement without change" when the
collection previously had OMB approval, but the
approval has expired or was withdrawn before this
submission was made, and there is no change to the
collection.
e. Check "Reinstatement with change" when the
collection previously had OMB approval, but the
approval has expired or was withdrawn before this
submission was made, and there is change to the
collection.
f. Check "Existing collection in use without OMB control
number" when the collection is currently in use but does
not have a currently valid OMB control number.

5. Small entities

13. Annual reporting and recordkeeping hour burden

Indicate whether this information collection will have a
significant impact on a substantial number of small entities.
A small entity may be (1) a small business which is deemed
to be one that is independently owned and operated and
that is not dominant in its field of operation; (2) a small
organization that is any not-for-profit enterprise that is
independently owned and operated and is not dominant in
its field; or (3) a small government jurisdiction which is a
government of a city, county, town, township, school
district, or special district with a population of less than
50,000.

a. Enter the number of respondents and/or recordkeepers.
If a respondent is also a recordkeeper, report the
respondent only once.

6. Requested expiration date
a. Check "Three years" if the agency requests a three year
approval for the collection.
b. Check "Other" if the agency requests approval for less
than three years. Specify the month and year of the
requested expiration date.

b. Check "Emergency" when the agency is submitting
the request under 5 CFR 1320.13 for emergency
processing and provides the required supporting
material. Provide the date by which the agency
requests approval.
c. Check "Delegated" when the agency is submitting
the collection under the conditions OMB has granted
the agency delegated authority.

b1. Enter the estimated percentage of responses that will
be submitted/collected electronically using magnetic media
(i.e., diskette), electronic mail, or electronic data
interchange. Facsimile is not considered an electronic
submission.
c. Enter the total annual recordkeeping and reporting hour
burden.
d. Enter the burden hours currently approved by OMB for
this collection of information. Enter zero (0) for any new
submission or for any collection whose OMB approval has
expired.

7. Title

e. Enter the difference by subtracting line d from line c.
Record a negative number (d larger than c) within
parentheses.

Provide the official title of the information collection. If an
official title does not exist, provide a description which will
distinguish this collection from others.

f. Explain the difference. The difference in line e must be
accounted for in lines f.1. and f.2.

8. Agency form number(s) (if applicable)
Provide any form number the agency has assigned to this
collection of information. Separate each form number with a
comma.
9. Keywords
Select and list at least two keywords (descriptors) from the

describe the subject area(s) of the information collection.
Other terms may be used but should be listed after those
selected from the thesaurus. Separate keywords with
commas. Keywords should not exceed two lines of text.

f.1. "Program change" is the result of deliberate Federal
government action. All new collections and any
subsequent revision of existing collections (e.g., the
addition or deletion of questions) are recorded as program
changes.
f.2. "Adjustment" is a change that is not the result of a
deliberate Federal government action. Changes resulting
from new estimates or action not controllable by the
Federal government are recorded as adjustments.
14. Annual reporting and recordkeeping cost burden
(in thousands of dollars)
The costs identified in this item must exclude the cost of
hour burden identified in Item 13.

10. Abstract

a. Enter the total dollar amount of annualized cost for all
respondents of any associated capital or start-up costs.

the agency's need for the information, uses to which it will
be put, and a brief description of the respondents.

b. Enter recurring annual dollar amount of cost for all
respondents associated with operating or maintaining
systems or purchasing services.

11. Affected public

c. Enter total (14.a. + 14.b.) annual reporting and
recordkeeping cost burden.

Mark all categories that apply, denoting the primary public
with a "P" and all others that apply with "X."

this collection of information. Enter zero (0) if this is the
first submission after October 1, 1995.

12. Obligation to respond

e. Enter the difference by subtracting line d from line c.
Record a negative number (d larger than c) within
parenthesis.

under 5 CFR 1320.10, 1320.11, or 1320.12 with a
standard 60 day review schedule.

b. Enter the number of responses provided annually. For
recordkeeping as compared to reporting activity, the
number of responses equals the number of recordkeepers.

Mark all categories that apply, denoting the primary
obligation with a "P" and all others that apply with "X."
a. Mark "Voluntary" when the response is entirely
discretionary and has no direct effect on any benefit or
privilege for the respondent.
b. Mark "Required to obtain or retain benefits" when the
response is elective, but is required to obtain or retain a
benefit.
c. Mark "Mandatory" when the respondent must reply or
face civil or criminal sanctions.

f. Explain the difference. The difference in line e must be
accounted for in lines f.1. and f.2.

government action. All new collections and any
subsequent revisions or changes resulting in cost changes
are recorded as program changes.

10/95

f.2. "Adjustment" is a change that is not the result of a
deliberate Federal government action. Changes
resulting from new estimations or actions not
controllable by the Federal government are recorded
as adjustments.
15. Purpose of information collection
Mark all categories that apply, denoting the primary
purpose with a "P" and all others that apply with "X."
a. Mark "Application for benefits" when the purpose is
to participate in, receive, or qualify for a grant, financial
assistance, etc., from a Federal agency or program.
b. Mark "Program evaluation" when the purpose is a
formal assessment, through objective measures and
systematic analysis, of the manner and extent to which
Federal programs achieve their objectives or produce
other significant effects.
c. Mark "General purpose statistics" when the data is
collected chiefly for use by the public or for general
government use without primary reference to the policy
or program operations of the agency collecting the
data.
d. Mark "Audit" when the purpose is to verify the
accuracy of accounts and records.
e. Mark "Program planning or management" when the
purpose relates to progress reporting, financial
reporting and grants management, procurement and
quality control, or other administrative information that
does not fit into any other category.

f. Mark "Research" when the purpose is to further the
course of research, rather than for a specific program
purpose.
g. Mark "Regulatory or compliance" when the
purpose is to measure compliance with laws or
regulations.
16. Frequency of recordkeeping or reporting
Check "Recordkeeping" if the collection of information
explicitly includes a recordkeeping requirement.
Check "Third party disclosure" if a collection of
information includes third-party disclosure
requirements as defined by 1320.3(c).

18. Agency contact

Provide the name and telephone number of the agency

person best able to answer questions regarding the

content of this submission.

19. Certification for Paperwork Reduction Act
Submissions
The Senior Official or designee signing this statement
certifies that the collection of information encompassed
by the request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9. Provisions
of this certification that the agency cannot comply with
should be identified here and fully explained in item 18 of
the attached Supporting Statement. NOTE: The Office
that "develops" and "uses" the information to be collected
is the office that "conducts or sponsors" the collection of
information. (See 5 CFR 1320.3(d)).

Check "Reporting" for information collections that
involve reporting and check the frequency of reporting
that is requested or required of a respondent. If the
reporting is on "an event" basis, check "On occasion."
17. Statistical methods
Check "Yes" if the information collection uses
statistical methods such as sampling or imputation.
Generally, check "No" for applications and audits
(unless a random auditing scheme is used). Check
"Yes" for statistical collections, most research
collections, and program evaluations using scientific
methods. For other types of data collection, the use
of sampling, imputation, or other statistical estimation
techniques should dictate the response for this item.
Ensure that supporting documentation is provided in
accordance with Section B of the Supporting
Statement.

"(3) informs and provides reasonable notice to the potential persons to whom the collection of information is addressed of:
"(i) the reasons the information is planned to be and/or has been collected;
"(ii) the way such information is planned to be and/or has been used to further the proper performance of the functions
of the agency;
"(iii) an estimate, to the extent practicable, of the average burden of the collection (together with a request that the
public direct to the agency any comments concerning the accuracy of this burden estimate and any suggestions for reducing
this burden);
"(iv) whether responses to the collection of information are voluntary, require to obtain or retain a benefit (citing
authority) or mandatory (citing authority);
"(v) the nature and extent of confidentiality to be provided, if any (citing authority); and
"(vi) the fact that an 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."
