Title: Low Income Home Energy 

Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Grantee 

Survey. 

OMB No.: 0970–0076. 

Description: The LIHEAP Grantee 

Survey is an annual data collection 

activity, which is sent to grantees of the 

50 states and the District of Columbia 

administering the Low Income Home 

Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). 

The survey is mandatory in order that 

national estimates of the sources and 

uses of LIHEAP funds can be calculated 

in a timely manner; a range can be 

calculated of State average LIHEAP 

benefits; and maximum income cutoffs 

for four-person households can be 

obtained for estimating the number of 

low-income households that are income 

eligible for LIHEAP under the State 

income standards. 

The need for the above information is 

to provide the Administration and 

Congress with fiscal estimates in time 

for hearings about LIHEAP 

appropriations and program 

performance. The information also is 

included in the Department’s annual 

LIHEAP Report to Congress. Survey 

information also will be posted on the 

Office of Community Services’ LIHEAP 

Web site for access by grantees and 

other interested parties. 

Respondents: 50 states and the 

District of Columbia.

Title: Refugee Resettlement Program 

Estimates: CMA, ORR–1. 

OMB No. 0970–0030. 

Description: The Office of Refugee 

Resettlement (ORR) reimburses, to the 

extent of available appropriations, 

certain non-Federal costs for the 

provision of cash and medical 

assistance to refugees, along with 

allowable expenses in the 

administration of the Refugee 

Resettlement Program. ORR needs 

sound State estimates of likely 

expenditures for refugee cash, medical, 

and administrative (CMA) expenditures 

so that it can anticipate Federal costs in 

upcoming quarters. If Federal costs are 

anticipated to exceed budget 

allocations, ORR must take steps to 

reduce Federal expenses, such as 

limiting the number of months of 

eligibility for Refugee Cash Assistance 

and Refugee Medical Assistance. 

To meet the need for reliable State 

estimates of anticipated expenses, ORR 

has developed a single-page form in 

which States estimate the average 

number of recipients for each category 

of assistance, the average unit cost over 

the next 12 months, and the expense for 

the overall administration of the 

program. This form, the ORR–1, must be 

submitted prior to the beginning of each 

Federal fiscal year. Without this 

information, ORR would be out of 

compliance with the intent of its 

legislation and otherwise unable to 

estimate program costs adequately. 

In addition, the ORR–1 serves as the 

State’s application for reimbursement of 

its CMA expenses. Submission of this 

form is thus required by section
