80704 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 222 / Monday, November 20, 2023 / Notices 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 20. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 600. 

Abstract: This is a request for an 

extension of an approved information 

collection to collect the Annual 

Performance Report (APR) for the 

Statewide Family Engagement Centers 

(SFEC) program. There is an increase in 

the number of respondents and total 

burden hours due to an adjustment to 

the estimated number of respondents. 

The collection of this information is part 

of the government-wide effort to 

improve the performance and 

accountability of all federal programs. 

Under the Uniform Guidance and 

EDGAR, recipients of federal awards are 

required to submit performance and 

financial expenditure information. The 

program-level performance measures 

and budget information for the SFEC 

program are reported in the APR. The 

APR is required under 2 CFR 200.328 

and 34 CFR 75.118 and 75.590. It 

provides data on the status of funded 

projects that correspond to the scope 

and objectives established in the 

approved applications and any 

amendments. To ensure that accurate 

and reliable data are reported to 

Congress on program implementation 

and performance outcomes, the SFEC 

APR collects data from grantees in a 

consistent format to calculate these data 

in the aggregate.
