SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a 

request for approval of a new collection. 

An agency may not conduct or sponsor 

and a person is not required to respond 

to a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

This notice allows 60 days for public 

comments. Supporting documents, 

which explain in detail the information 

that the EPA will be collecting, are 

available in the public docket for this 

ICR. The docket can be viewed online 

at www.regulations.gov or in person at 

the EPA Docket Center, WJC West, 

Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW, 

Washington, DC. The telephone number 

for the Docket Center is 202–566–1744. 

For additional information about EPA’s 

public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/ 

dockets. 

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and

clarity of the information to be

collected; and (iv) minimize the burden

of the collection of information on those

who are to respond, including through

the use of appropriate forms of

information technology. EPA will

consider the comments received and

amend the ICR as appropriate. The final

ICR package will then be submitted to

OMB for review and approval. At that

time, EPA will issue another Federal

Register notice to announce the

submission of the ICR to OMB and the

opportunity to submit additional

comments to OMB.

Abstract: To help expand historically 

underserved and overburdened 

communities’ access to critical 

resources, the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) has 

collaborated with the U.S. Department 

of Energy to develop the Environmental 

Justice Thriving Communities Technical 

Assistance Centers (TCTAC) Program. 

The 18 Centers will operate in 

cooperative agreements with EPA to 

remove barriers and improve access for 

communities who wish to apply for 

financial assistance awards to tackle 

their environmental justice concerns. 

The Centers will provide assistance and 

training to build capacity in: identifying 

sources of funding; navigating grant 

application systems; compiling strong 

grant proposals; managing grants; and 

developing partnerships and coalitions. 

With this Information Collection 

Request (ICR), EPA seeks authorization 

to collect post-award information from 

each Center to track their progress. 

Collection of this information enables 

EPA to assess and manage the TCTAC 

Program, which ensures responsible 

stewardship of public funds; rigorous 

evidence-based learning and 

improvement; and transparent 

accountability to the American public. 

This ICR also requests authorization for 

the Centers to collect input and insights 

from communities who seek to obtain 

technical assistance services, as well as 

stakeholders who have valuable 

experience and expertise in community 

engagement and empowerment. These 

information collections will enable the 

Centers to document local priorities, 

needs, and norms to ensure that they 

develop useful and relevant technical 

assistance and training services. 

Furthermore, feedback about these 

services will enable the Centers to 

conduct self-assessments to identify best 

practices and areas for improvement. 

Lastly, this ICR requests authorization 

for the National Centers in the TCTAC 

Program to conduct quarterly needs 

assessments for the Regional Centers, in 

order to identify the best ways in which 

the National Centers can support, 

expand, and bolster the technical 

assistance that local communities may 

need. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: To be 

determined. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory for grant recipients as per 

reporting requirements included in EPA 

regulations 2 CFR parts 200 and 1500, 

and voluntary for public outreach 

information collections via surveys and 

focus groups. 

Estimated number of respondents: To 

be determined. This data will be 

available for the next public review 

period. 

Frequency of response: To be 

determined. This data will be available 

for the next public review period. 

Total estimated burden: To be 

determined. This data will be available 

for the next public review period. 

Total estimated cost: To be 

determined. This data will be available 

for the next public review period. 

Changes in the Estimates: This is a 

new collection therefore there is no 

change in burden.

Deputy Assistant Administrator for 

Environmental Justice, Office of
