*Abstract:*                     AmeriCorps seeks renewal of the current information collection pursuant to the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973 (42 U.S.C. 4950*et seq.*) and the National and Community Service Act of 1990, (42 U.S.C. 12501*et seq.*) The information collected is used to help AmeriCorps more effectively use its deployable resources to meet the needs of communities affected by disaster. An understanding of the participating programs allows AmeriCorps to match the capabilities of the programs to the needs of the communities and will allow better asset mapping and resource typing. Additionally, the information collected will allow AmeriCorps to conduct better outreach to interested programs by providing them with more information about the Agency's disaster procedures, reimbursement requirements, and support services offered. This information collection ensures interested programs meet the appropriate programmatic and fiscal requirements to successfully execute disaster response activities. It also helps AmeriCorps identify and deploy programs effectively and efficiently, matching the capabilities of the programs to the needs of the communities asking for assistance. The forms under the DRCA allow for effective information collection during a disaster event as well as assess the capacity of all DRCA programs throughout the year. Information is collected electronically through completion of the forms and emailed to AmeriCorps. The current application is due to expire on March 31, 2024.                

                    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the 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 collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial                           ( print page 83537)                        resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency.
