Abstract: The COPS Hiring Recovery Program (CHRP) progress is a short report that supplements the OMB mandated quarterly report for Recovery Act recipients with information that the COPS Office requires for proper grant management and performance measurement. Ultimately, the CHRP progress report will be merged with the already approved COPS Hiring Progress Report collection, but to meet OMB mandated timelines on performance measurement, this collection needs to be a separate collection for approximately the first three calendar quarters beginning 10/1/09.

Emergency Justfication: To meet OMB mandated performance measures and to ensure proper grant implementation of grants made with Recovery Act funds, the COPS Office must require COPS Hiring Recovery Program (CHRP) grantees to submit a quarterly progress report directly to the COPS Office. This is in addition to the Recovery Act report that will be required through www.FederalReporting.gov. The reports will be due 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter. The COPS Office respectfully requests emergency clearance on this collection so that it can be used by grantees during the reporting period beginning October 1, 2009.
