### 34706 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 117 / Friday, June 18, 2010 / Notices

Comments

A 60-day public comment Notice, regarding modification of the Project Progress Report was published in the Federal Register on March 12, 2010. This comment period ended on May 12, 2010. A total of 10 responses were received. The summary of comments received is as follows:

(a) Eight comments supported the suggested changes and noted that the proposed revisions will make reporting easier and more streamlined, and will significantly reduce the reporting burden. (b) Two comments encouraged the Corporation to retain the current Progress Report submission schedule of semi-annually to help ensure that Senior Corps grantees provide current data at a higher frequency than annual. The Corporation disagrees with the two commenters. We believe that requiring Progress Reports on an annual basis will provide sufficiently accurate data, while improving efficiency and alleviating the burden on sponsors of Senior Corps grants. Note, however, that we will continue to collect a limited amount of data from Foster Grandparent Program and Senior Companion Program sponsors on a semi-annual basis to track volunteer production on a schedule coinciding with the Federal Financial Report (FFR).

Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.

Agency: Corporation for National and Community Service.

Description: The Corporation seeks to renew and revise the current OMB approved Progress Report. When revised, the Progress Report will: (a) Modify the reporting frequency by Senior Corps grantees from semi-annual to annual. The one exception to annual reporting is the requirement that Foster Grandparent Program and Senior Companion Program grantees will report on a total of 4 data elements at each 6- month interval to ensure that the Corporation can track and analyze volunteer production rates. For all Senior Corps grantees, submission of the full Progress Report, including narratives, work plan updates, and other elements, will be annual.

The Project Progress Report (PPR) was designed to assure that Senior Corps grantees address and fulfill legislated program purposes, meet agency program management and grant requirements, and assess progress toward work plan objectives agreed upon in the granting of the award.

Dated: June 14, 2010. Angela Roberts, Acting Director, Senior Corps.

**[Docket No. DoD–2010–OS–0083]**

**Information Collection; Comment Request** 

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  The Department of Defense is submitting to OMB for emergency clearance, the following proposal for collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35). A shortened comment period of twelve days is necessary because the collection of information related to the repeal of

‘‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’’ is needed prior to the submission of recommendations from the Department of Defense to the White House. The initial report on the impact of the repeal of the law on spousal family readiness and perceived unit stability and cohesion is needed by mid-September 2010. As data collection procedures needed to ensure high response rates require a 2 month field period, it is necessary to begin datacollection procedures no later than midJuly.

**DATES :**  Consideration will be given to all comments received by June 30, 2010.

Title and OMB Number: Survey for Military Family Members, OMB Control Number 0704–TBD.

Type of Request: New. Number of Respondents: 150,000. Responses per Respondent: 1. Annual Responses: 50,000. Average Burden per Response: 30 minutes.

Annual Burden Hours: 75,000 hours. Needs and Uses: The Department of Defense Comprehensive Review Working Group (CRWG) is the working group the Secretary of Defense directed to examine the issues associated with a repeal of the law known as ‘‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. ’’ The CRWG is studying what impact, if any, repeal would have on military readiness, military effectiveness, unit cohesion, recruiting, retention, and family readiness. As part of these efforts, the CRWG will also look at how best to manage any impacts during implementation. The survey is an opportunity for the families of service members to share their feelings on the issue with the CRWG and the military’s senior leadership. The survey is a critical part of the CRWG’s efforts as military families are an essential part of the military community and their reactions to the repeal of ‘‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell ’’ could have significant influence on the behavior of their spouses and the impact of repeal on recruiting, retention, and family readiness.

Affected Public: Individuals or households.

Frequency: One-time. Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
