Proposed Project: The Division of Independent Review Grant Reviewer 
Recruitment Form (OMB No. 0915-0295)--Extension

    HRSA's Division of Independent Review (DIR) is responsible for 
carrying out the independent and objective review of all eligible 
applications submitted to HRSA. DIR ensures that the independent review 
process is efficient, effective, economical, and complies with 
statutes, regulations, and

[[Page 13421]]

policies. The review of applications is performed by people 
knowledgeable in the field of endeavor for which support is requested 
and is advisory to individuals in HRSA responsible for making award 
decisions.
    To streamline the collection, selection, and assignment of expert 
grant reviewers to objective review committees, HRSA utilizes a Web-
based data collection Grant Reviewer Recruitment Form to gather 
critical reviewer information. The Grant Reviewer Recruitment Form 
standardizes pertinent categories of reviewer information such as areas 
of expertise, occupations, work settings, reviewer education, and 
experience. This standardized information is automatically entered into 
a centralized data base that the Division of Independent Review uses to 
determine suitability and to select appropriate reviewers for objective 
review committees that judge the merits of grant applications and 
cooperative agreements.
    The annual estimate of burden is as follows:
