information and, once funding is 

received, must submit reports on how 

they are using the funding. A complete 

application must contain the following 

elements: 

• A formal signed resolution of the 

governing body of the tribe; 

• A proposal describing the planned 

activities and deliverable products; and 

• A detailed budget estimate, 

including contracted personnel costs, 

travel estimates, data collection and 

analysis costs, and other expenses. 

The project proposal must include 

information about the tribe sufficient to 

allow IEED to evaluate the proposal 

based on the following criteria: 

(a) Energy resource potential; 

(b) Tribe’s energy resource 

development history and current status; 

(c) Tribe’s existing energy resource 

development capabilities; 

(d) Demonstrated willingness of the 

tribe to develop independent energy 

resource development business entity; 

(e) Intent to develop and retain energy 

development capacity within tribal 

government or business entities; and 

(f) Tribal commitment of staff, 

training, or monetary resources. 

The IEED requires this information to 

ensure that it provides funding only to 

those projects that meet the goals of the 

TEDC and the purposes for which 

Congress provides the appropriations. 

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

provides an opportunity for interested 

parties to comment on proposed 

information collection requests. The 

IEED is proceeding with this public 

comment period to obtain an 

information collection clearance from 

OMB. 

II. Request for Comments 

The IEED requests your comments on 

this collection concerning: (a) The 

necessity of this information collection 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden (hours 

and cost) of the collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(c) Ways we could enhance the quality, 

utility and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and (d) Ways we could 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

the information on the respondents, 

such as through the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

Please note that an agency may not 

conduct or sponsor, and an individual 

need not respond to, a collection of 

information unless it has a valid OMB 

Control Number. 

It is our policy to make all comments 

available to the public for review at the 

location listed in the ADDRESSES section. 

Before including your address, phone 

number, e-mail address or other 

personally identifiable information, be 

advised that your entire comment— 

including your personally identifiable 

information—may be made public at 

any time. While you may request that 

we withhold your personally 

identifiable information, we cannot 

guarantee that we will be able to do so.

Capacity Program Grants. 

Brief Description of Collection: Indian 

tribes that would like to apply for TEDC 

funding must submit an application that 

includes certain information. A 

complete application must contain a 

formal signed resolution of the 

governing body of the tribe, a proposal 

describing the planned activities and 

deliverable products; and a detailed 

budget estimate, including contracted 

personnel costs, travel estimates, data 

collection and analysis costs, and other 

expenses. The IEED requires this 

information to ensure that it provides 

funding only to those projects that meet 

the goals of the TEDC program and 

purposes for which Congress provides 

the appropriation. Upon acceptance of 

an application, a tribe must then submit 

one- to two-page quarterly progress 

reports summarizing events, 

accomplishments, problems and/or 

results in executing the project. The 

IEED estimates that approximately 20 

tribes will apply each year, and that 

IEED will accept approximately 10 of 

those applicants into the program. 

Respondents: Indian tribes under 25 

U.S.C. 3502. 

Number of Respondents: 20 

applicants per year; 10 project 

participants each year. 

Estimated Time per Response: 40 

hours per application; 1.5 hours per 

progress report. 

Frequency of Response: Once per year 

for applications; 4 times per year for 

progress reports. 

Total Annual Burden to Respondents: 

860 hours (800 for applications and 60 

for progress reports).
