### 2510 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 10 / Friday, January 15, 2010 / Notices

EDA is considering several steps to address the collection of the remaining

measures.

Following is a list of the steps EDA will take to address the current data collection gaps.

(1) TAACs were instructed to upgrade their Adobe software to facilitate data collection. TAACs that only have Adobe Reader can use the Adobe fillable forms, but they cannot save the information on their computers. Upgrading the Adobe software will allow the remaining TAACs to save electronic records of the forms, and will allow EDA to automatically upload information into its management information system and no longer require EDA to re-type all of the information into the system.

(2) EDA will issue several new procedures and guidelines to simplify data collection through a revised template for the quarterly TAAC activity reports.

(3) As resources become available, the management information system (MIS) will be expanded to facilitate reporting.

(4) EDA is in the process of seeking OMB clearance for a revised Form ED– 840P to collect all required data.

Conclusion

Overall, there has been an increase in the demand for the TAAF Program in FY 2009, as demonstrated by the increase in the number of petitions for certification and Adjustment Proposals submitted to EDA.

Due to the spike in petitions and Adjustment Proposals, EDA experienced challenges in meeting the new 40-day processing deadline for petitions accepted for filing immediately after the new rule’s implementation. However, since the fourth quarter of FY 2009, the average processing time for petitions declined below the 40-day requirement. New TAAF program staff members are expected to help improve processing time even further for FY 2010.

TAACs effectively targeted small and medium-sized firms in FY 2009. The average employment, net sales, and productivity of firms certified in FY 2009 declined in comparison to the previous fiscal year. More than half of all firms proposed to implement a marketing/sales project or production/ engineering project in their Adjustment Proposals.

Of the 14 measures required for reporting, EDA was unable to provide any information on four measures, and provided limited information on another four measures. EDA is taking steps to collect and report on all of the missing measures for the FY 2010 Annual Report. Dated: January 7, 2010. Bryan Borlik, Director, Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms Program.
