Title: Low Income Home Energy 

Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Carryover 

and Reallotment Report. 

OMB No.: 0970–0106. 

Description: The LIHEAP statute and 

regulations require LIHEAP grantees to 

report certain information to HHS 

concerning funds forwarded and funds 

subject to reallotment. The 1994 

reauthorization of the LIHEAP statute, 

the Human Service Amendments of 

1994 (Public Law 103–252), requires 

that the Carryover and Reallotment 

Report for one fiscal year be submitted 

to HHS by the grantee before the 

allotment for the next fiscal year may be 

awarded. The Administration for 

Children and Families is requesting no 

changes in the collection of data with 

the Carryover and Reallotment Report 

for FY 20_, a form for the collection of 

data, and the Simplified Instructions for 

Timely Obligations of FY_ LIHEAP 

Funds and Reporting Funds for 

Carryover and Reallotment. The form 

clarifies the information being requested 

and ensures the submission of all the 

required information. The form 

facilitates our response to numerous 

queries each year concerning the 

amounts of obligated funds. Use of the 

form is voluntary. Grantees have the 

option to use another format. 

Respondents: State Governments, 

Tribal Governments, Insular Areas, the 

District of Columbia, and the 

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

In compliance with the requirements 

of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the

should be identified by the title of the 

information collection. 

The Department specifically requests 

comments on: (a) Whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

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 administration (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 State 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 

412(a)(4) of the Immigration and 

Nationality Act, which provides that 

‘‘no grant or contract may be awarded 

under this section unless an appropriate 

proposal and application * * * are
