DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES


Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; 
Public Comment Request

AGENCY: Electronic Government Office, Department of Health and Human 
Services.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, Grants.gov (EGOV), Department of Health and 
Human Services, announces plans to submit an Information Collection 
Request (ICR), described below, to the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB). The ICR is for a 3 year renewal of a previously-approved 
information collection assigned OMB control number 4040-0006--SF-424 A 
Budget Information for Non-Construction Programs, which expired on June 
30, 2014. The ICR also requests categorizing the form as a common form, 
meaning HHS will only request approval for its own use of the form 
rather than aggregating the burden estimate across all Federal Agencies 
as was done for previous actions on this OMB control number. Prior to 
submitting that ICR to OMB, EGOV seeks comments from the public 
regarding the burden estimate, below, or any other aspect of the ICR.
