Proposed Projects

    1. PHS Supplements to the Application for Federal Assistance--SF-
424 (0920-0428)--Extension. The Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC) is requesting a three-year extension for continued use 
of the Supplements to the Request for Federal Assistance Application 
(SF-424). The Checklist, Program Narrative, and the Public Health 
System Impact Statement (third party notification) (PHSIS) are a part 
of the standard application for State and local governments and for 
private non-profit and for-profit organizations when applying for 
financial assistance from PHS grant programs. The Checklist assists 
applicants to ensure that they have included all required information 
necessary to process the application. The Checklist data helps to 
reduce the time required to process and review grant applications, 
expediting the issuance of grant awards. The PHSIS Third Party 
Notification Form is used to inform State and local health agencies of 
community-based proposals submitted by non-governmental applicants for 
Federal funding.
    The total annual cost to the respondents is $1,184,452.
