Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Increase Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Due to the increase in applications expected, and the increased number of awards there is an overall increase in burden expected. The changes in burden are related to the need for OST and modal administrations to oversee and administer the grants, as well as to collect information on the transportation outcomes of the grants. Since this ICR would cover an additional two appropriations before it expires, OST estimates that an additional 140 grants will be made.Additionally, the Recovery Act and the Notices of Funding Availability for each program require OST to collect information from grant recipients in order to monitor the progress and financial conditions of projects that have been awarded grants, and to monitor the performance of completed projects against the goals of the completed projects.
