 *Title:*
                     Annual Report on Households Assisted by the Low Income Home Energy Assistance (LIHEAP). *OMB No.*
                     0970-0060. *Description:*
                     This report is an annual activity required by statute (42 U.S.C. 8629) and Federal regulations (45 CFR 96.92) for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). Submission of the completed report is one requirement for LIHEAP grantees applying for Federal LIHEAP block grant funds. States, the District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico are required to report statistics for the previous Federal fiscal year on: Assisted and applicant households, by type of LIHEAP assistance;
Assisted and applicant households, by type of LIHEAP assistance and poverty level;
Assisted households receiving only utility payment assistance;
Assisted households, regardless of the type(s) of LIHEAAP assistance;
Assisted households, by type of LIHEAP assistance, having at least one vulnerable member broken out; by a person at least 60 years or younger, disabled person, or a child five years older of younger;
Assisted households, by type of LIHEAP assistance, with least one member age 2 years or under;
Assisted households, by type of LIHEAP assistance, with at least one member ages 3 years through 5 years; and
Assisted households, regardless of the type(s) of LIHEAP assistance, having at least one member 60 years or older, disabled, or five years old or younger. Insular areas (other than the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico) and Indian Tribal Grantees are required to submit data only on the number of households receiving heating, cooling, energy crisis, and/or weatherization benefits. The information is being collected for the Department's annual LIHEAP Report to Congress. The data also provides information about the need for LIHEAP funds. Finally, the data are used in the calculation of LIHEAP performance measures under the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993. The data elements will allow the accuracy of measuring LIHEAP targeting performance and LIHEAP cost efficiency. *Respondents:*
