within 30 days from the date of this 

publication in the Federal Register. 

The OMB is particularly interested in 

comments which: 

• Evaluate 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; 

• Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• Enhance the quality, utility and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• 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, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses.

Description: Pursuant to Public Law 

105–220, dated August 7, 1998 and WIA 

Final Rule, 20 CFR 652, et al., dated 

August 11, 2000. Emergency Grant 

financial reporting requirements were 

developed to achieve compliance with 

the statute. Section 185(e) and (f) 

require that States report quarterly all 

program and activity costs by cost 

category and by year of appropriation, 

any income or profits earned, and any 

cost incurred such as stand-in costs that 

are otherwise allowable except for 

funding limitations. Sec. 185(g) requires 

that costs only be categorized as 

administrative or programmatic costs. 

The Regulations at 20 CFR 667.300 

require that DOL issue financial 

reporting instructions to the States and 

other direct grant recipients. These 

financial reporting requirements 

represent the Department’s only means 

for obtaining the statutorily required 

data. Software containing the required 

data elements has been provided to the 

grantees (with built-in edit checks) to 

enable electronic reporting via the 

Internet.
