SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title of Collection: Organizational 

Information. 

OMB Control Number: 0524–0026. 

Expiration Date of Current Approval:

Type of Request: Notice of intent to 

extend for three years and revise a 

previously approved information 

collection. 

Abstract: NIFA has primary 

responsibility for providing connection 

between the Federal and State 

components of a broad-based, national 

agricultural research, extension, and 

education system. Focused on national 

issues, its purpose is to represent the 

Secretary of Agriculture and carry out 

the intent of Congress by administering 

capacity and grant funds appropriated 

for agricultural research, extension, and 

education. Before awards can be made, 

certain information is required from 

applicants to effectively assess the 

potential recipient’s capacity to manage 

Federal funds. 

The Organizational Information Form 

enables NIFA to determine that the 

applicants recommended for awards 

will be responsible recipients of Federal 

funds. 

The information requested from the 

applicant pertains to the organizational 

and financial management of the 

potential grantee. This form and the 

attached applicant documents provide 

NIFA with information such as the legal 

name of the organization; certification 

that the organization has the legal 

authority to accept Federal funding; 

identification and signatures of the 

organization’s key officials; the 

organization’s policies for employee 

compensation and benefits; evidence of 

equipment insurance; the organization’s 

policies on subcontracting with other 

organizations; evidence of the financial 

condition of the organization; and 

certification that the organization is not 

delinquent on Federal taxes. NIFA 

considers all this information prior to 

award, to determine the grantee is both 

managerially and fiscally responsible. 

This information is submitted to NIFA 

on a one-time basis and updated 

accordingly. If material changes occur 

within the organization, the grantee 

must submit revised information. 

NIFA is proposing to update the form 

to ensure that it reflects the latest 

statutory and regulatory requirements, 

including updates to 2 CFR Part 200— 

Uniform Administrative Requirements, 

Cost Principles, and Audit 

Requirements for Federal Awards. NIFA 

also proposes to rename the form to the 

‘‘Organizational Information Form,’’ and 

update the format of the form itself to 

improve accessibility. 

Estimate of Burden: The total annual 

estimated burden for this information 

collection is 945 hours. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

150. 

Annual responses: 150. 

Average time to complete each 

response: 6.3 hours. 

Burden hours: 945. 

Comments: Comments are invited on: 

(a) Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the Agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information; (c) ways to 

enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 

of the information to be collected; and 

(d) ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

All responses to this notice will be 

summarized and included in the request 

to OMB for approval. All comments will 

become a matter of public record.

collection and related instructions may
