1An eligible Tribal government is the recognized 

governing body of any Indian or Alaska Native 

tribe, band, nation, pueblo, village, community, 

component band, or component reservation, 

individually identified (including parenthetically) 

in the list published most recently as of the date 

of enactment of this Act pursuant to section 104 of 

the Federally Recognized Indian Tribe List Act of 

1994 (25 U.S.C. 5131). The State of Hawaii, for 

exclusive use of the Department of Hawaiian Home 

Lands and the Native Hawaiian Education Programs 

to assist Native Hawaiians, is also eligible to apply 

for funding under this funding category. 

2State, territory, and freely associated state 

recipients that have not received any payments by 

June 15, 2022, will be exempted from the report due 

on July 31, 2022. 

Description: Section 604 of the Social 

Security Act (the ‘‘Act’’), as added by 

section 9901 of the American Rescue 

Plan Act of 2021, Public Law 117–2 

(Mar. 11, 2021) established the 

Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund 

(‘‘CPF’’). The CPF provides $10 billion 

in funding for the U.S. Department of 

the Treasury (‘‘Treasury’’) to make 

payments according to a statutory 

formula to States (defined to include 

each of the 50 states, the District of 

Columbia, and Puerto Rico), seven 

territories and freely associated states 

(the United States Virgin Islands, Guam, 

American Samoa, the Commonwealth of 

the Northern Mariana Islands, the 

Republic of the Marshall Islands, the 

Federated States of Micronesia, and the 

Republic of Palau), and Tribal 

governments 1 to carry out critical 

capital projects directly enabling work, 

education, and health monitoring, 

including remote options, in response to 

the public health emergency with 

respect to the Coronavirus Disease 

(COVID–19). 

The current information collection 

will be used to solicit information 

related to quarterly project and 

expenditure reports and annual 

performance reports. Both information 

collections are described generally in 

the Compliance and Reporting 

Guidance. The Compliance and 

Reporting Guidance provides recipients 

with information needed to fulfill their 

reporting requirements and compliance 

obligations. Treasury will also prepare 

an IT portal user guide with specific 

instructions on entering data into the 

reporting web-based portal. 

The initial Project and Expenditure 

Report must be submitted by States, 

territories, and freely associated states 

on July 31, 2022,2 with subsequent 

reports being due quarterly for the 

duration of the period of performance. 

The Project and Expenditure Report 

contains a set of standardized questions 

to ascertain the recipient’s use of funds 

received as of the date of reporting, as 

well as the status of individual projects. 

Treasury will make the data submitted 

by recipients publicly available. 

The first interim Performance Report 

must be submitted by States, territories, 

and freely associated states on January 

31, 2023, with subsequent reports being 

due annually on July 31 for the duration 

of the period of performance. The 

Performance Report will contain 

detailed performance data 

corresponding to the ‘‘Programs’’ 

specified previously in a recipient’s 

Grant Plan. This will include 

information on efforts to improve equity 

and engage communities. The 

Performance Report is largely freely 

written text, and while there are certain 

data and topics that recipients must 

cover in the Performance Report, it is 

mostly free-form written content. 

Recipients are required to publish the 

Performance Report on their website 

and provide the reports to Treasury. 

Treasury will make the Performance 

Reports and associated data submitted 

by recipients publicly available.

Title: Program of Comprehensive 

Assistance for Family Caregivers 

(PCAFC) Decision Appeal Forms, VA 

Forms 10–306 and 10–307. 

OMB Control Number: 2900–0894. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: The Caregivers and Veterans 

Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010 

(Pub. L. 111–163) established 38 U.S.C. 

1720G, which directed the Department 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 90 / Tuesday, May 10, 2022 / Notices 28105 

of Veterans Affairs (VA) to establish a 

Program of Comprehensive Assistance 

for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) and a 

Program of General Caregiver Support 

Services (PGCSS). Both programs are 

managed by VA’s Caregiver Support 

Program (CSP) Office. On June 06, 2018, 

the President signed into law the John 

S. McCain III, Daniel K. Akaka, and 

Samuel R. Johnson VA Maintaining 

Internal Systems and Strengthening 

Integrated Outside Networks Act of 

2018 or the VA MISSION Act 2018 (Pub. 

L. 115–182). The VA MISSION Act of 

2018 fundamentally transformed 

elements of the Department of Veterans 

Affairs’ (VA) healthcare system to 

include expanding the PCAFC to Family 

Caregivers of eligible Veterans of all eras 

in a phased approach, established new 

benefits for Primary Family Caregivers 

of eligible Veterans, and made other 

changes affecting program eligibility 

and VA’s evaluation of PCAFC 

applications. The statutory authority for 

PCAFC and PGCSS is codified at 38 

U.S.C. 1720G. VA’s regulations 

implementing PCAFC and PGCSS are in 

38 CFR part 71. 

Since program inception, Veterans 

and caregivers who disagree with a 

PCAFC decision were afforded the right 

to appeal through the Veterans Health 

Administration (VHA) Clinical Appeals 

Process. A recent Court ruling has 

changed the appeal and review options 

now available to individuals who have 

received a PCAFC decision and disagree 

with that decision. On April 19, 2021, 

in the case of Jeremy Beaudette & Maya 

Beaudette v. Denis McDonough, 

Secretary of Veterans Affairs, the U.S. 

Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims 

ruled in favor of petitioners seeking 

review by the Board of Veterans’ 

Appeals (BVA or Board) of decisions 

under the PCAFC. The Court also 

certified, as a class, claimants who 

received an adverse benefits decision 

under PCAFC, exhausted the 

administrative review process within 

VHA (the VHA Clinical Appeals 

Process), and have not been afforded the 

right to appeal to the Board. As a result 

of the Court’s ruling, BVA review is now 

available to individuals who have 

received a decision under the PCAFC 

since the program began in May 2011. 

Consequently, VA has expanded options 

available to Veterans and caregivers 

who seek review of or to appeal a 

PCAFC decision. 

The options now include a separate 

appeals process (legacy) that must be 

used to appeal to the Board regarding 

PCAFC decisions issued before February 

19, 2019. This legacy process is 

implemented through use of VA Forms 

10–306 and 10–307. 

VA Form 10–306, Request for 

Information—Because individuals now 

have additional options for appealing 

and seeking review of previous PCAFC 

decisions, dating back to May 2011, this 

form allows Veterans and caregivers to 

request information about past PCAFC 

decisions to determine whether they 

wish to pursue an appeal to the Board 

or request review. 

VA Form 10–307, Notice of 

Disagreement—This form was 

developed because VA Form 21–0958, 

which previously was used to initiate an 

appeal to the Board of benefits decisions 

dated before February 19, 2019, is no 

longer an approved information 

collection. VA Form 10–307, Notice of 

Disagreement, is now used for legacy 

appeals of PCAFC decisions and is 

specific to individuals who wish to 

appeal a PCAFC decision that was 

issued prior to February 19, 2019. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number. The Federal Register
