Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Submission for OMB 

Review; Comment Request 

Periodically, the Health Resources 

and Services Administration (HRSA) 

publishes abstracts of information 

collection requests under review by the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB), in compliance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of 

the clearance requests submitted to 

OMB for review, call the HRSA Reports 

Clearance Office on (301)–443–1129. 

The following request has been 

submitted to the Office of Management 

and Budget for review under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995: 

Proposed Project: The Division of 

Independent Review Grant Reviewer 

Recruitment Form (OMB No. 0915–

0295): Extension 

HRSA’s Division of Independent 

Review (DIR) is responsible for carrying 

out the independent and objective 

review of all eligible applications 

submitted to HRSA. DIR ensures that 

the independent review process is 

efficient, effective, economical, and 

complies with statutes, regulations, and 

policies. The review of applications is 

performed by experts knowledgeable in 

the field of endeavor for which support 

is requested and is advisory to 

individuals in HRSA responsible for 

making award decisions. 

To streamline the selection and 

assignment of expert grant reviewers to 

objective review committees, HRSA 

utilizes a Web-based data collection 

form to gather critical reviewer 

information. The Grant Reviewer 

Recruitment Form standardizes 

pertinent categories of reviewer 

information, such as: Areas of expertise, 

occupations, work settings; reviewer 

experience, and allows maximum use of 

drop-down menus to simplify the data 

collection process. The Web-based 

system also permits reviewers to update 

their information as needed. HRSA 

maintains a pool of approximately 5,500 

individuals that have previously served 

on HRSA objective review committees. 

The estimated annual burden is as 

follows:
