A 60-day Notice requesting public
comment on this information collection
was published in the Federal Register
on May 6, 2026 at 91 FR 23529. The
comment period ended July 6, 2026.
One public comment was received. A
summary of the comments and
AmeriCorps VISTA’s responses are
below:
• Comment: Concern that an
intermediary project might find it
difficult to fit all of the requested
information for the concept paper and
application into the page limit.
Response: The suggested page limit for
intermediary projects to concisely
respond to the narrative questions is
sufficient because the list of sites and
performance measures does not count
towards the narrative page limit.
• Comment: Request that
requirements for the continuation
application instructions be reduced for
intermediary projects with a large
number of Volunteers and/or service

locations. Response: The continuation
application is used to help evaluate and
measure the success of a project,
regardless of project type (single service
location, muti-service location, or
intermediary) or size. A project
sponsor’s answers help AmeriCorps
assess whether a project is continuing to
strive towards sustainability and their
use of VISTA resources is compliant.
• On the progress report instructions,
the commenter suggested:
• Consolidating the VISTA Progress
Report Supplement (VPRS) with the
Project Process Report (PPR) to allow for
one reporting period. Response: VISTA
is working towards a single project
progress report. However, we are still
including the progress report
supplement until the report
consolidation is complete, which we
expect to happen by FY2028.
• Making the Sustainability narrative
section ‘‘not applicable’’ for
intermediary projects. Response:
Legislation and regulations governing
AmeriCorps VISTA apply to all project
models (single-site, multi-site, or
intermediary), and accordingly,
sustainability is a key factor in our
determination of a project’s success.
• Making the Partnership
Collaboration and Development
narrative ‘‘not applicable’’ for
intermediary projects. Response: The
PPR instructions were updated with
clarifying language, so intermediaries do
not have to list each partnership
developed by every site, but are
encouraged to provide three to five
examples.
• Changing the due date for PPRs
from 30 days to 60 days. Response: The
instructions have been updated to
reflect a deadline of no later than 90
calendar days for annual performance
reports.
• Questioning how the agency uses
the information in the Member
Development section. Response:
Volunteer (formally, ‘‘member’’)
development is a cornerstone of
VISTA’s legislation and a key
component of the agency’s new strategic
plan. We use this information to review
key metrics and identify possible
training needs.
• Changing the ‘‘Demographics’’ title
of the PPR and removing information on
youth and veterans and military
families. Response: AmeriCorps VISTA
will continue to use ‘‘Demographics.’’
The term has specific meaning and is
widely used, including across
AmeriCorps programs. Youth, veterans,
and military families are a high priority
for the agency and the Administration,
so we need to collect data about these
populations. We do recognize that not

all projects will serve these target
populations. The instructions state that
projects may enter ‘‘0’’ if it does not
apply to them.
• Removing the Resource
Development section. Response: We
have added language to the instructions
to clarify the more limited requirements
for intermediary project responses.
Intermediary projects only need to
highlight successful projects.
AmeriCorps frequently uses this
information in outreach and reporting to
Congress to demonstrate the success of
the VISTA program and its partners in
generating non-AmeriCorps resources.
• Removing information on the
number of VISTA Volunteers serving
under each performance measure.
Response: We updated the PPR
instructions to explain what to enter in
the ‘‘# of Full Time VISTAS’’ field. We
need to collect this information to
determine the scope of VISTA Volunteer
activities, where we may need to
supplement training resources, and to
pull data for information requests.
Title of Collection: AmeriCorps
VISTA Application and Reporting
Forms.
OMB Control Number: 3045–0038.
Type of Review: Revision.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Businesses and Organizations, State,
Local or Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 750.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 13,763.
Abstract: AmeriCorps seeks to revise
the concept paper and project
application instructions, continuation
application instructions, project
progress report instructions, and
support grant budget instructions in the
current information collection. The
revisions streamline content, ensure use
of plain English with use of the second
person, separate systems instructions
from content explanations, update
terminology, and divide narrative fields
into clearer subsections to organize
content. No revisions are being made to
the VISTA Progress Report Supplement
(VPRS) instructions. The information
collection will otherwise be used in the
same manner as the existing application
and reporting forms. AmeriCorps also
seeks to continue using the current
forms until the revised forms are
approved by OMB. The currently
approved information collection is due
to expire on March 31, 2027.
Brendan Murphy,
Acting Director, AmeriCorps VISTA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Abstract of Patent Application(s)
Systems, methods, and computerreadable storage media for generating
and utilizing radar signals with
embedded data are disclosed. Data is
encoded onto a CPM waveform, which
is then combined with a base radar
waveform to produce a radar-embedded
communication (REC) waveform. Both
the CPM waveform and the base radar
waveform may have a continuous phase
and constant envelope, resulting in the
REC waveform having a continuous
phase and constant envelope. The
changing (e.g., on a pulse-to-pulse basis)
nature of the REC waveform causes RSM
of clutter which may result in residual
clutter after clutter cancellation,
decreasing target detection performance
of the radar system. In an aspect,
various parameters may be utilized to
dynamically adjust the performance of
the radar system for a particular
operating scenario, such as to enhance
radar signal processing or enhance data
communication capabilities.
