Title of Collection: AmeriCorps 

Program Life Cycle Evaluation—Climate 

Change Bundled Evaluation. 

OMB Control Number: 3045–NEW. 

Type of Review: New. 

Respondents/Affected Public: Grantee 

organization project director and staff, 

national service members, partner 

organization staff. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 611. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 235. 

Abstract: The purpose of this 

evaluation is to provide insight on the 

implementation of the climate change 

bundle programs and explore variation 

in activities for education and training, 

disaster response, conservation, wildfire 

mitigation, and energy efficiency. It will 

explore the ways in which the programs 

influence community resilience. It will 

also examine changes in attitudes and 

behaviors toward civic engagement 

among national service members and 

the development of job skills, including 

skills for green jobs. Finally, it will 

examine how the programs are serving 

vulnerable communities and at-risk 

populations. The research questions for 

this evaluation are: 

1. How do programs/members 

connect their work to climate change? 

2. To what extent does the program 

include opportunities to increase 

equity? 

3. To what extent is the program 

operating as intended? 

4. What are some promising practices 

and challenges in implementing the 

climate change grant programs? 

5. What were the barriers and 

facilitators to meet the intended 

outcomes of the program? 

6. What are the lessons learned that 

can inform the field or be useful for 

practitioners that work in this space? 

7. What is the likelihood that the 

program will be sustained beyond the 

grant? 

8. How were the communities and 

community members impacted by 

climate change prior to the program? 

9. What types of communities are 

being helped by the climate change 

grant programs? 

10. To what extent are programs 

focused on vulnerable populations and 

communities? 

11. What are the demographic 

characteristics of national service 

members (e.g., gender, age, race, 

ethnicity, education)? 

12. What partner organizations are 

involved (i.e., community organizations, 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
71588 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 225 / Wednesday, November 23, 2022 / Notices 

local agencies)? What are their roles in 

the program? 

13. What is the breadth (number and 

type of partnership), quality, and 

quantity of the partnership(s) (number 

and frequency of joint activities and the 

strength)? 

14. How were partnerships built and 

maintained? 

15. How do grantee and sponsor 

organizations work with partners to 

build community resilience? 

16. To what extent do the climate 

change grant programs: (a.) improve 

energy efficiency and increase the use of 

renewable energy sources? (b.) help 

communities prepare, respond, and 

recover from natural disasters and other 

climate change effects? (c.) preserve 

public lands and waterways and protect 

or restore biodiversity? (d.) increase 

community members’ knowledge, 

attitudes, and behaviors around climate 

change? (e.) build capacity of the 

community to be resilient? 

17. How do the climate change grant 

programs lead to increased civic 

engagement? 

18. In what ways does participation in 

the climate change grant programs 

influence national service members’ job 

skills development toward green jobs? 

19. To what extent does participation 

in the climate change grant programs: 

(a.) increase national service members’ 

functional and technical job skills? (b.) 

increase national service members’ 

interest/willingness to pursue a career 

in a green job? (c.) lead to a job after 

their service? (d.) lead to a career in a 

green job after their service? 

This bundled evaluation of grantees is 

being conducted by ICF through a 

contract with AmeriCorps; it will have 

an explicit emphasis on activities 

related to addressing climate change. By 

bundling, this evaluation combines a 

group of state commissions with similar 

program approaches into a single 

evaluation. Spanning 32 months, the 

evaluation includes up to 30 grantees to 

examine program design, 

implementation, and outcomes using 

surveys, interviews, and focus groups 

with a wide range of stakeholders 

including grantee staff, partner 

organizations, national service 

members, and community members. 

This is a new information collection.

OMB for clearance the following 

proposal for collection of information 

under the provisions of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act. 

DATES: Consideration will be given to all 

comments received by December 23,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title and OMB Number: Defense 

Federal Acquisition Regulation 

Supplement (DFARS) Subpart 227.71, 

Rights in Technical Data, and Subpart 

227.72, Rights in Computer Software 

and Computer Software Documentation, 

and related provisions and clauses of 

the Defense Federal Acquisition 

Regulation Supplement (DFARS); OMB 

Control Number 0704–0369. 

Affected Public: Businesses or other 

for-profit and not-for-profit institutions. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. 

Reporting Frequency: On occasion. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Number of Respondents: 75,250. 

Responses Per Respondent: 13, 

approximately. 

Annual Responses: 959,602. 

Average Burden per Response: 1 hour, 

approximately. 

Annual Response Burden Hours: 

904,574. 

Annual Recordkeeping Burden Hours: 

90,600. 

Total Annual Burden Hours: 995,174. 

Needs and Uses: DFARS subparts 

227.71 and 227.72 prescribe the use of 

solicitation provisions and contract 

clauses containing information 

collection requirements that are 

associated with rights in technical data 

and computer software. DoD needs this 

information to implement 10 U.S.C. 

2320, Rights in technical data, and 10 

U.S.C. 2321, Validation of proprietary 

data restrictions. DoD uses the 

information to recognize and protect 

contractor rights in technical data and 

computer software that are associated 

with privately funded developments; 

and to ensure that technical data 

delivered under a contract are complete 

and accurate and satisfy contract 

requirements. 

DoD uses the following DFARS 

provisions and clauses in solicitations 

and contracts to require offerors and 

contractors to identify and mark data or 

software requiring protection from 

unauthorized use, release, or disclosure 

in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2320: 

252.227–7013, Rights in Technical 

Data—Noncommercial Items. 

252.227–7014, Rights in 

Noncommercial Computer Software and 

Noncommercial Computer Software 

Documentation. 

252.227–7017, Identification and 

Assertion of Use, Release, or Disclosure 

Restrictions. 

252.227–7018, Rights in 

Noncommercial Technical Data and 

Computer Software—Small Business 

Innovation Research (SBIR) Program. 

In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 

2320(a)(2)(D), DoD may disclose limited 

rights data to persons outside the 

Government, or allow those persons to 

use data with use, release, or disclosure 

restrictions, if the recipient agrees not to 

further release, disclose, or use the data. 

Therefore, the clause at DFARS 

252.227–7013, Rights in Technical 

Data—Noncommercial Items, requires 

the contractor to identify and mark data 

or software that it provides with limited 

rights. 

In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2321(b), 

contractors and subcontractors at any 

tier must be prepared to furnish written 

justification for any asserted restriction 

on the Government’s rights to use or 

release data. The following DFARS 

clauses require contractors and 

subcontractors to maintain adequate 

records and procedures to justify any 

asserted restrictions: 

252.227–7019, Validation of Asserted 

Restrictions—Computer Software. 

252.227–7037, Validation of 

Restrictive Markings on Technical Data. 

In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2320, 

DoD must protect the rights of 

contractors that have developed items, 

components, or processes exclusively at 

private expense. Therefore, the clause at 

DFARS 252.227–7025, Limitations on 

the Use or Disclosure of GovernmentFurnished Information Marked with 

Restrictive Legends, requires a 

contractor or subcontractor to submit a 

use and non-disclosure agreement when 

it obtains data from the Government to 

which the Government has less than 

unlimited rights. In addition, DFARS 

227.7103–7, Use and non-disclosure 

agreement, requires intended recipients
