Abstract: "This supporting statement is for an Information Collection Request (ICR) for four mobile source related grant programs administered by the Transportation and Climate Division (TCD), within Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) Office of Transportation and Air Quality (OTAQ). These four programs include: Diesel Emission Reduction Act (DERA) Grant Program, Clean School Bus (CSB) Grant Program, Clean Heavy-Duty (CHD) Grant Program, and Clean Ports Grant Program. The DERA Grants Program and the Clean School Bus Grant Program currently collect information under an existing ICR, the General Administrative Requirements for Assistance Programs (Renewal), ICR No. 2030-0020. The EPA currently uses ICR No. 2030-0020 to collect information for most major elements of grants administration, but to ease the burden for applicants, awardees, and Agency staff, as well as enrich data quality across programs, the Agency needs to be able to collect information via new reporting instruments, specifically program-specific, fillable data templates. This ICR for these four programs is requesting clearance to cover fillable data templates for three phases of the grant lifecycle: initial application, quarterly reporting, and final reporting. Notably, for successful grant applicants, the information in data templates collected during the application phase of the grant lifecycle will flow into the data templates for the quarterly and final reporting periods, enabling these templates to capture data efficiently throughout the life of the entire award. TCD uses approved procedures and forms to collect necessary information to operate its grant programs and has been providing grants under DERA since 2008. EPA is preparing to launch the 2024 Clean Port Program in late winter 2024, the 2024 Clean Heavy Duty in early spring 2024, as well as the 2024 DERA grant program in summer 2024, and overseeing the 2023 Clean School Bus Grantees, who are expected to begin reporting in mid-2024. While these programs each have unique statutory requirements, there are key aspects that unite them as mobile source emissions reduction efforts, and by combining them as a cohort of programs under one ICR, EPA aims to enrich data quality across our programs and to ease burden on applicants and awardees considering applying for multiple programs. Additionally, collecting data via program-specific, fillable data templates that supplement the main application document will enhance the Agency's oversight of these projects as directed by Congress. Further, doing so will also provide critical real-world performance data that the Agency would not otherwise be able to procure, which can inform future research and policy decisions related to OTAQs mission to protect human health and the environment by reducing air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from mobile sources and advancing clean fuels and technology."
