Proposed Projects

    Title: Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Carryover 
and Re-allotment Report.
    OMB No.: 0970-0106.
    Description: The LIHEAP statute and regulations require LIHEAP 
grantees to report certain information to HHS concerning funds 
forwarded and funds subject to reallotment. The 1994 reauthorization of 
the LIHEAP statute, the Human Service Amendments of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-
252), requires that the carryover and reallotment report for one fiscal 
year be submitted to HHS by the grantee before the Allotment for the 
next fiscal year may be awarded.
    We are requesting no changes in the collection of data with the 
Carryover and Reallotment Report For FY 20__, a form for the collection 
of data, and the Simplified Instructions for Timely Obligations of FY 
20__ LIHEAP Funds and Reporting Funds For Carryover and Reallotment. 
The form clarifies the information being requested and ensures the 
submission of all the required information. The form facilitates our 
response to numerous queries each year concerning the amounts of 
obligated funds. Use of the form is voluntary. Grantees have the option 
to use another format.
    Respondents: State, Local or Tribal Government.
