AGENCY: U.S. Agency for International 

Development. 

ACTION: Notice of public information 

collections. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Agency for 

International Development (USAID) 

seeks Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) approval to continue the 

information collections described 

below. In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act for 1995, 

USAID requests public comment on 

these collections from all interested 

individuals and organizations. 

DATES: All comments should be 

submitted within 30 calendar days from 

the date of this publication. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to https://www.reginfo.gov/

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Wayne Cohee, at (202) 916–2630 or via

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

proposed information collection was 

published in the Federal Register on 

February 22, 2022 at 87 FR 9563, 

allowing for a 60-day public comment 

period. Two comments were received 

during the 60-day public comment 

period. The first comment expressed 

support for the 60-day public comment 

period. The second comment expressed 

concerns about background checks and 

financial audits that are addressed 

within the standard provisions; thus, no 

changes are required to the standard 

provisions or the burden estimates. Both 

commenters were thanked for their 

input via email. The purpose of this 

notice is to allow an additional 30 days 

for public comment. Comments are 

requested concerning: (a) Whether the 

proposed collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

functions of the agency, including the 

practical utility of the information; (b) 

the accuracy of USAID’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information; (c) ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; and (d) ways to 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

information on respondents. 

OMB No: 0412–0510 (expired). 

Title of Information Collection: 

Applicant and Recipient Information 

Collected in Response to Standard 

Provisions in USAID Grants and 

Cooperative Agreements to NonGovernmental Organizations. 

Type of Review: Reinstatement, with 

change, of a previously approved 

collection (OMB approval number 

0412–0510) for which approval has 

expired. 

Purpose: USAID is authorized to make 

grants to and enter cooperative 

agreements with Non-Governmental 

Organizations in or outside of the 

United States in furtherance of the 

purposes and within limitations of the 

Foreign Assistance Act (FAA). The 

information collection requirements 

placed on the public are published in 

Standard Provisions that are included, 

as required or as applicable, in Notices 

of Funding Opportunities to potential 

applicants and resulting awards to 

recipients. The pre-award requirements 

are based on a need for prudent 

management in the determination that 

an applicant either has or can obtain the 

ability to competently manage 

development assistance programs using 

public funds. The requirements for 

information collection during the postaward period are based on the need to 

prudently administer public funds. 

Respondents: USAID grant and 

cooperative agreement applicants and 

recipients. 

Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 1,210. 

Estimated Number of Annual Burden 

Hours: 22,100. 

Estimated Total Public Burden (in 

cost): $1,303,900. 

These estimated totals were 

calculated using the below burden 

estimates per response for each of the 

named Standard Provisions, which are 

published internally in the Agency’s 

Automated Directives System (ADS) 

Chapter 303 and included by Agreement 

Officers, as required or as applicable, in
