persons are not required to respond to 

the collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

Forest Service 

Title: Cooperative Wildland Fire 

Management and Stafford Act Response 

Agreements. 

OMB Control Number: 0596–0242. 

Summary of Collection: The primary 

authorities allowing for the agreements 

are the Reciprocal Fire Protection Act, 

42 U.S.C 1856, and the Stafford Act, 42 

U.S.C. 5121. The proposed Cooperative 

Wildland Fire Management and Stafford 

Act Response Agreement template will 

allow authorized agencies to streamline 

coordination with other Federal, State, 

local, and Tribal governments in 

wildland fire protection activities, and 

to document in an agreement the roles 

and responsibilities among the parties, 

ensuring maximum protection of 

resources. 

Need and Use of the Information: To 

negotiate, develop, and administer 

Cooperative Wildland Fire Management 

and Stafford Act Response Agreements, 

the USDA Forest Service, DOI Bureau of 

Land Management, DOI Fish and 

Wildlife Service, DOI National Park 

Service, and DOI Bureau of Indian 

Affairs must collect information from 

willing State, local, and Tribal 

governments from the pre-agreement to 

the closeout stage via telephone calls, 

emails, postal mail, and person-toperson meetings. There are multiple 

means to communicate responses, 

which include forms, optional forms, 

templates, electronic documents, in 

person, telephone, and email. The scope 

of information collected includes the 

project type, project scope, financial 

plan, statement of work, and 

cooperator’s business information. 

Without the collected information, 

authorized Federal agencies would not 

be able to negotiate, create, develop, and 

administer cooperative agreements with 

stakeholders for wildland fire 

protection, approved fire severity 

activities, and presidentially declared 

emergencies or disasters. Authorized 

Federal agencies would be unable to 

develop or monitor projects, make 

payments, or identify financial and 

accounting errors.

Title: Supplemental Nutrition 

Assistance Program Education and 

Obesity Prevention Grant (SNAP-Ed) 

National Program Evaluation and 

Reporting System (N–PEARS) 

Form Number: SNAP-Ed Annual 

Report (Form FNS–925A) and SNAP-Ed 

State Plan (Form FNS–925B). 

OMB Number: 0584–NEW. 

Expiration Date: Not Yet Determined. 

Type of Request: New collection. 

Abstract: This is a new information 

collection request. FNS administers the 

nutrition assistance programs of the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture (USDA), 

including the Supplemental Nutrition 

Assistance Program (SNAP). The SNAP 

Nutrition Education and Obesity 

Prevention Grant Program (referred to as 

SNAP-Ed), established by the Food and 

Nutrition Act of 2008, as amended (Pub. 

L. 115–334, ‘‘The Act’’) is the nutrition 

education and promotion component of 

SNAP. Under current SNAP regulations 

(7 CFR 272.2 (d)), State SNAP agencies 

have the option to provide, as part of 

their administrative operations, 

nutrition education for persons who are 

eligible to receive SNAP benefits and 

other means-tested Federal assistance 

programs. The goal of SNAP-Ed is to 

improve the likelihood that persons 

eligible for SNAP will make healthy 

food choices within a limited budget 

and choose physically active lifestyles 

consistent with the current Dietary 

Guidelines for Americans and the USDA 

food guidance. SNAP-Ed’s target 

audience includes low-income 

individuals eligible to receive benefits 

under SNAP or other means-tested 

Federal assistance programs, and 

individuals residing in communities 

with a significant (50 percent or greater) 

low-income population. State SNAP 

agencies have the option of providing 

SNAP-Ed services to SNAP recipients as 

part of their SNAP operations. As of 

2022, all 53 States and Territories 

implement some form of SNAP-Ed 

program. Participating States receive 

federally allocated grants every year that 

are used to cover States’ SNAP-Ed 

expenses at a rate of 100 percent. Some 

State SNAP Agencies choose to 

implement their SNAP-Ed programs

themselves, while others contract with 

sub-grantees referred to as 

Implementing Agencies (IAs) to carry 

out SNAP-Ed programming. 

Implementing agencies are entities that 

contract with State SNAP agencies to 

provide SNAP-Ed services and include 

cooperative extension offices, 

universities, State departments of health 

or education, State-level nutrition 

networks, food banks, and other 

organizations. SNAP-Ed programming 

can comprise a wide range of evidencebased strategies, but common 

approaches include direct classroom or 

online education, community-level 

nutrition and health initiatives, and 

social marketing messaging. The annual 

SNAP-Ed Plan Guidance, available 

online (https://snaped.fns.usda.gov/ 

program-administration/snap-ed-planguidance-and-templates) describes 

SNAP-Ed Programming options in 

detail. 

Current Process 

Currently, States submit their SNAPEd Nutrition Education Plans to FNS in 

electronic format via FNS PartnerWeb 

by August 15 of each year, as required 

at 7 CFR 272.2(d)(2). These State plans 

are prepared according to the SNAP-Ed 

Plan Guidance, which is updated 

annually and available online (https://

snaped.fns.usda.gov/programadministration/snap-ed-plan-guidanceand-templates), and must include key 

features such as a needs assessment of 

the SNAP-Ed-eligible public, a 

description of the SNAP-Ed 

programming the State proposes to 

undertake, a budget, and a record of the 

States’ consultation with partner and 

stakeholder groups. FNS Regional 

Offices review and approve State plans 

before States can use the year’s SNAPEd funding. The burden associated with 

State plans is currently approved under 

OMB Control Number 0584–0083, 

expiration 08/21/2023. Additionally, 7 

CFR 272.2(d)(2)(xiii) requires State 

agencies to submit an Annual Report on 

SNAP-Ed activities to FNS in two parts: 

the Education and Administrative 

Reporting System (EARS) form (FNS– 

759) is submitted by State agencies each 

December via the Food Program 

Reporting System (FPRS, currently 

approved under OMB Control No. 0584– 

0594, expiration 07/31/2023), and a 

SNAP-Ed Annual Narrative Report is 

submitted to FNS each January via 

email. The burden for these reports is 

also approved through OMB Control 

Number 0584–0083, included in the 

State Plan of Operations Update. There 

are no Individuals or Households 

directly impacted by this information 

collection and any burden associated 

with I/H is already covered in OMB 

Control Number: 0584–0064; Expiration 

date: 02/2024. The agency is not seeking 

to duplicate those estimates associated 

with I/H. 

In States where SNAP-Ed activities 

are being conducted by implementing 

agencies, the IAs individually plan, 

track, and report their data, and then 

submit their plan and report materials to 

the State to be reviewed and combined 

for the submission of a single, statewide 

Annual Report. The information 

collected in the Annual Report is 

necessary to ensure that State agencies 

are maximizing the use of resources to 

identify target audiences; implementing 

interventions and strategies that meet 

the assessed nutrition, physical activity, 

and obesity prevention needs of the 

target population; and promoting the 

availability of SNAP-Ed activities in 

local communities. In addition, the 

information collected from State 

agencies is necessary to ensure integrity 

of funds, demonstrate program 

effectiveness, and track SNAP-Ed 

outcomes and impacts. The new N– 

PEARS system outlined in this notice 

will increase efficiency and reduce 

burden by providing all State and 

Implementing Agencies with a single 

streamlined, online tool for their plans 

and reports. It will simplify the review 

and submission process—both for States 

reviewing implementing agency data 

and for FNS staff approving State 

Plans—and provide better tools for FNS 

and the public to visualize and 

understand SNAP-Ed outcomes through 

data. 

New Process—N–PEARS 

As directed by the Agriculture 

Improvement Act of 2018 (‘‘2018 Farm 

Bill’’, Pub. L. 115–334), FNS has worked 

to improve the SNAP-Ed data reporting 

process by providing States with a 

robust electronic, online reporting 

system. FNS has entered into a 

cooperative agreement with the Kansas 

State University Research Foundation to 

develop and maintain new State Plan 

and Annual Report modules for their 

Program Evaluation and Reporting 

System (PEARS), an existing reporting 

system that many States have already 

elected to purchase to track and report 

SNAP-Ed data for their own needs. 

These new plan and annual report 

modules, referred to as the National 

Program Evaluation and Reporting 

System (N–PEARS), will still be housed 

inside the platform many States are 

already familiar with—not on a separate 

FNS website—and will require no 

additional paperwork or purchase by 

States. This system will allow States to 

submit their SNAP-Ed annual Nutrition 

Education Plans (SNAP-Ed State Plan) 

and a new, consolidated Annual Report. 

These newly developed annual plan and 

Annual Report systems (form FNS– 

925A, SNAP-Ed Annual Report, and 

form FNS–925B, SNAP-Ed State Plan) 

will provide FNS with data that are 

more consistent across State programs 

and, thus, facilitate data aggregation and 

evaluation of SNAP-Ed grants. This 

system will also streamline the annual 

plan and Annual Report submission and 

review process for States and FNS. 

There will be no change in submission 

deadlines, and the plan and report 

modules housed in N–PEARS will ease 

tracking and submission by walking 

users through the plan and reportwriting process step-by-step, using 

autofill to avoid re-entering repeated 

data, and automatically skipping 

sections not needed for a particular 

State or IA’s plan or report. The order 

and phrasing of the questions 

themselves have also been reworked for 

clarity and ease of use based on 

feedback from FNS and State staff. Once 

this collection is approved by OMB, the 

State Plan and Annual Report review 

process will also be streamlined for FNS 

staff, as State Plans previously 

submitted individually and often as 

long documents will now be housed in 

a centralized system and viewable in a 

single, streamlined format. 

This new information collection 

covers the reporting and recordkeeping 

requirements associated with the SNAPEd State Plan and the new Annual 

Report forms. Upon the approval of this 

information collection and associated 

forms, using a change request memo, 

FNS will remove the burden associated 

with the SNAP-Ed Nutrition Education 

Plan annual updates (53 hours) from 

OMB Control Number 0584–0083. FNS 

also will remove the burden associated 

with the EARS Report (FNS Form-759; 

2,808 hours) from OMB Control Number 

0584–0594 and discontinue the form. 

While the new burden estimate 

presented here is higher than the burden 

hours removed from existing approved 

information collections, this is largely 

due to FNS’ attempts to accurately 

capture the role that Implementing 

Agencies play in SNAP-Ed operations. 

The previous information collections 

referenced above accounted for SNAPEd plan and report activities only in 

terms of State and Territory 

respondents—whereas this collection 

includes burden down to the level of 

individual implementing agencies. 

In developing the burden estimates 

for this information collection, FNS 

consulted with two States involved in 

the development and pre-testing of the 

new SNAP-Ed State Plan and the 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 112 / Friday, June 10, 2022 / Notices 35493 

Annual Report forms. In an effort to 

derive realistic averages of the time 

needed to complete the activities 

covered in the information collection, 

the two States consulted consisted of 

one ‘‘small’’ State and one ‘‘large’’ State, 

based on funding allocation. To further 

refine the time burdens associated with 

the new N–PEARS system, FNS intends 

to broaden its consultation efforts to no 

more than seven additional States (for a 

total of nine or fewer) during the 60-day 

comment period. As part of its 

consultation efforts, FNS also will seek 

information on how to account for 

implementing agency burden, given the 

diversity across States. In addition, 

through this notice, FNS seeks public 

comments on methods that can be used 

to account for implementing agency 

burden. 

Affected Public: State agencies that 

elect to request Federal SNAP-Ed grant 

funds to conduct nutrition education 

and obesity prevention services, and 

SNAP-Ed implementing agencies. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 53 

State agencies (50 U.S. States, District of 

Columbia, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin 

Islands) and 168 implementing agencies 

(97 State government agencies, 7 local 

government agencies, 12 Tribal 

government agencies, and 52 not-forprofit institutions). 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Respondent: 26 responses per 

respondent per year. This total number 

of responses includes: (1) submission of 

the SNAP-Ed State Plan form once a 

year by the State or Implementing 

Agency (1 response); (2) submission of 

the SNAP-Ed Annual Report form once 

a year by the State or Implementing 

Agency (1 response); (3) review of 

standards established in the regulation, 

SNAP-Ed Plan Guidance, and other FNS 

policy once a month by the State or 

Implementing Agency (12 responses); 

and (4) State or Implementing Agency 

activities to meet FNS fiscal 

recordkeeping requirements once a 

month (12 responses).

Notice of Petitions by Firms for 

Determination of Eligibility To Apply 

for Trade Adjustment Assistance 

AGENCY: Economic Development

ACTION: Notice and opportunity for 

public comment. 

SUMMARY: The Economic Development 

Administration (EDA) has received 

petitions for certification of eligibility to 

apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance 

from the firms listed below. 

Accordingly, EDA has initiated 

investigations to determine whether 

increased imports into the United States 

of articles like or directly competitive 

with those produced by each of the 

firms contributed importantly to the 

total or partial separation of the firms’ 

workers, or threat thereof, and to a 

decrease in sales or production of each 

petitioning firm.
