the basic clause requires contractors to 

submit a written proposed plan to 

provide and maintain work 

environments and procedures that will 

safeguard the public and Government 

personnel, property, materials, supplies, 

and equipment exposed to contractor 

operations and activities; avoid 

interruptions of Government operations 

and delays in project completion dates; 

and control costs in the performance of 

this contract. The plan must include an 

analysis of the significant hazards to 

life, limb, and property inherent in 

contract work performance and a plan 

for controlling these hazards. The 

contracting officer and technical 

representatives analyze the Accident 

Prevention Plan to determine if the 

proposed plan will satisfy the safety 

requirements identified in the contract, 

to include certain provisions of the 

Occupational Safety and Health Act (per 

FAR 36.513(c)) and applicable standards 

issued by the Secretary of Labor at 29 

CFR part 1926 and 29 CFR part 1910. 

• FAR 52.236–15, Schedules for 

Construction Contracts. This clause 

requires contractors to prepare and 

submit to the contracting officer for 

approval three copies of a practicable 

schedule showing the order in which 

the contractor proposes to perform the 

work, and the dates on which the 

contractor contemplates starting and 

completing the several salient features 

of the work (including acquiring 

materials, plant, and equipment). The 

contracting officer uses this information 

to monitor progress under a Federal 

construction contract when other 

management approaches for ensuring 

adequate progress are not used. 

• FAR 52.236–19, Organization and 

Direction of the Work. This clause 

requires contractors, under costreimbursement construction contracts, 

to submit to the contracting officer a

administrative organization, the 

personnel to be employed in connection 

with the work under the contract, and 

their respective duties. The contractor 

must keep the data furnished current by 

supplementing it as additional 

information becomes available. The 

contracting officer uses this information 

to ensure the work is performed by 

qualified personnel at a reasonable cost 

to the Government.

Families 

Submission for Office of Management 

and Budget Review; Home-Based 

Child Care Toolkit for Nurturing 

School-Age Children Study (New 

Collection) 

AGENCY: Office of Planning, Research, 

and Evaluation, Administration for 

Children and Families, United States 

Department of Health and Human 

Services. 

ACTION: Request for public comments. 

SUMMARY: The Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF) Office of 

Planning, Research, and Evaluation 

(OPRE) at the U.S. Department of Health 

and Human Services (HHS) is proposing 

to collect information to examine a 

toolkit of new measures designed to 

assess and strengthen the quality of 

child care, the Home-Based Child Care 

Toolkit for Nurturing School-Age 

Children (HBCC–NSAC Toolkit). This 

study aims to build evidence about the 

English version of the HBCC–NSAC 

Toolkit for use by/with providers caring 

for children in a residential setting (i.e., 

home-based child care [HBCC]). 

DATES: Comments due within 30 days of 

publication. Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) must make a decision 

about the collection of information 

between 30 and 60 days after 

publication of this document in the 

Federal Register. Therefore, a comment 

is best assured of having its full effect 

if OMB receives it within 30 days of 

publication. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/ 

PRAMain. Find this particular 

information collection by selecting 

‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open 

for Public Comments’’ or by using the 

search function. You can also obtain 

copies of the proposed collection of 

information by emailing 

OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov. 

Identify all requests by the title of the 

information collection. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Description: The HBCC–NSAC 

Toolkit is designed for home-based 

providers who regularly care for at least 

1 school-age child who is not their own. 

The purpose of the HBCC–NSAC 

Toolkit is to help home-based providers 

identify their caregiving strengths and 

areas for growth. The HBCC–NSAC 

Toolkit consists of a self-administered 

provider questionnaire (composed of 

multiple newly developed measures) 

and a family communication 

questionnaire (composed of 1 

communication tool). For validation 

purposes, the study will include the 

provider questionnaire from the HBCC– 

NSAC Toolkit with additional items 

from existing measures and a separate 

family survey with child and family 

background information items and items 

from an existing measure. A subset of 

providers will be observed with an 

existing observation measure. Study 

participants will include home-based 

providers who can complete the 

provider questionnaire in English. They 

must currently care for at least 1 schoolage child (age 5 and in kindergarten, or 

ages 6 through 12) in a home for at least 

10 hours per week and for at least 8 

weeks in the past year. These providers 

may also care for younger children (ages 

birth through 5 and not yet in 

kindergarten). Families (a parent or 

guardian of school-age children 

receiving care in the HBCC setting) who 

can complete the family survey in 

English will also be included in the 

study. The study will be based on a 

purposive sample of home-based 

providers in at least 10 geographic 

locations to maximize variation in the 

sample. OPRE proposes to collect 

survey and observational data from 

home-based providers who are licensed 

or regulated by states to provide child 

care and early education (CCEE) and 

providers who are unlicensed or legally 

exempt from state regulations for CCEE. 

Study participants may or may not 

participate in the child care subsidy 

program. The data collection activities 

are designed to provide critical 

information that is needed to analyze 

the reliability and validity of the HBCC– 

NSAC Toolkit’s provider questionnaire. 

The resulting data will help ACF 

understand if the HBCC–NSAC Toolkit’s 

provider questionnaire can be used to 

support home-based providers in 

identifying and reflecting on their

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Information Collection Request Title: 

Voluntary Partner Surveys to Implement 

Executive Order 14058 in the Health 

Resources and Services Administration, 

OMB No. 0915–0212—Revision. 

Abstract: The purpose of information 

collections under this generic umbrella 

ICR package is to conduct a limited 

number of partner surveys. If this 

generic ICR is approved, information on 

each individual partner survey 

conducted under this generic ICR will 

not be published separately in the 

Federal Register. Approval of this 

specific umbrella ICR would allow 

HRSA to continue to conduct voluntary 

customer surveys of its partners to 

assess strengths and weaknesses in 

program services and processes. A 

previous version of this ICR was done 

in response to Executive Order 12862, 

which called on the Federal 

Government to gather feedback from 

customers, set customer service 

standards, and measure performance 

against those standards. In December 

2021, the White House issued Executive 

Order 14058, calling on the Federal 

Government to improve its service 

delivery to its customers and put people 

at the center of Federal Government 

activity. In accordance with this 

directive, HRSA is requesting approval 

of this generic umbrella ICR from OMB 

to conduct the partner surveys with a 

slight increase in the allotted burden 

hours so that HRSA can assess its 

performance from a larger swath of its 

partner population to help ensure that 

HRSA’s customer service delivery 

continues to improve, in accordance 

with the directive in Executive Order 

14058. 

HRSA customer service feedback will 

continue to be gathered in the form of 

focus groups, in-class evaluation forms, 

mail surveys, and telephone surveys. 

Although HRSA cannot anticipate all of 

the collections that will fall under this 

generic umbrella ICR, HRSA anticipates 

receiving OMB approval to include the 

following collections: 

• Surveys of HRSA grantees to 

determine satisfaction with grant 

processes or technical assistance 

provided by a HRSA contractor. Surveys 

may also be done to determine partner 

satisfaction with HRSA products or 

services. Surveys may be conducted by 

mail, telephone, or online. These 

surveys include the Division of 

Practitioner Data Bank Usability Survey 

generic fast track ICR, which helps 

identify strengths and weaknesses of the 

National Practitioner Data Bank 

customer service call center agents, and 

the HRSA Electronic Handbooks 

Customer Service Survey generic fast 

track ICR, which gathers public 

feedback about HRSA’s electronic 

handbooks. 

• Evaluation forms completed by 

providers who receive training from 

HRSA funding recipients, to measure 

satisfaction with the training 

experience. Evaluation forms may also 

be done after a conference or other 

training session with HRSA partners. 

Evaluation forms may be done hardcopy or online. One evaluation form 

generic fast track ICR that is expected to 

be included in this generic umbrella ICR 

is the National Ryan White Conference 

survey forms evaluating the National
