This will replace 0920-0008 (exp 7/31/14) which applied specifically to information collections down under the Epi-Aid mechanism which will not be renewed after expiration.
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:
