Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Submission to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for Clearance; Comment 
Request; Reinstatement of a Previously Approved Information Collection

AGENCY: Administration on Aging, HHS.
    The Administration on Aging (AoA), Department of Health and Human 
Services, provides an opportunity for comment on the following proposal 
for the collection of information in compliance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA; Public Law 96-511):
    Title of Information Collection: Grantee Data Collection for the 
Evaluation of the Alzheimer's Disease Demonstration Grants to States 
Program.
    Type of Request: Reinstatement of a previously approved collection 
for which approval has expired. This request significantly streamlines 
and reduces the amount of data collected as compared to previously 
approved requirements.
    Use: Data is collected on client demographic and health 
characteristics, client service use, and program characteristics to 
adequately evaluate the implementation, progress and process of the 
Alzheimer's Disease Demonstration Grants to States Program (Section 398 
of the Public Health Service Act, Pub. L. 78-410 as amended). Data is 
used by the grantee states to manage and evaluate their own programs. 
The data is also used by the AoA to evaluate and describe all projects 
funded by this initiative and address the program's statutory 
evaluation and Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) 
requirements. Findings are used to manage the program and better target 
future activities, as well as to provide a final evaluation of each set 
of grants to Congress as set forth by statute.
    Frequency: Client Intake Form--only once per client, data submitted 
quarterly, Service Use Form--quarterly, Agency Service Profile Form--
annually.
    Respondents: Agencies of State Governments and Territories that 
have been designated by the Governor as the sole applicant for the 
State and who have applied for a grant under this program.
    Estimated Number of Responses: Client Intake Form--5000/year, 
Service Use Form--2500/year, Agency Service Profile Form--125/year.
    Total Estimated Burden Hours: Client Intake Form--100 hours/state/
year, Service Use Form--420 hours/state/year, Agency Service Profile 
Form--1.25 hours/state/year.
    Additional Information or Comments: The Administration on Aging 
plans to submit to the Office of Management and Budget for 
reinstatement of a previously approved collection for which approval 
has expired, for the Alzheimer's Disease Demonstration Grants to States 
Program, pursuant to requirements set forth by statute. Written 
comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection 
should be sent within 60 days of the publication of this notice 
directly to the following address: Office of Program Development, 
Administration on Aging, Attention: Melanie Starns, 330 Independence 
Avenue, SW., Rm. 4270, Washington, DC 20201.
