Abstract: EDA must collect specific data from grant recipients to report to Congress and stakeholders on its performance in meeting its stated goals and objectives. EDA proposes revising Forms ED-916, ED-917, and ED-918, which are currently used to collect limited performance information from recipients receiving assistance under three of EDA’s non-infrastructure programs. The revised Forms ED-916, ED-917, and ED-918 would instead comprehensively cover all of EDA’s non-infrastructure programs. EDA does not propose to revise the remaining fourth form under this information collection, Form ED-915, which collects information on EDA's infrastructure and revolving loan fund programs, but may do so in the future.
