Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HHS.

    In compliance with the requirement of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Office of the Secretary (OS), 
Department of Health and Human Services, is publishing the following 
summary of a proposed collection for public comment. Interested persons 
are invited to send comments regarding this burden estimate or any 
other aspect of this collection of information, including any of the 
following subjects: (1) The necessity and utility of the proposed 
information collection for the proper performance of the agency's 
functions; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology to minimize the information collection 
burden.
    Type of Information Collection Request: Transferring existing 
collection 0920-0428.
    Title of Information Collection: Supplements to the Application for 
Federal Assistance SF-424 (HHS 5161-1).
    Form/OMB No.: 0990-0000.
    Use: 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.
    There may be some revisions made to one or more of the forms to 
allow the respondents easy web-based access. This should not affect the 
current burden. There is no cost to the respondents other than their 
time. HHS is transferring the clearance of the 5161-1 supplements to 
the SF-424 from CDC to HHS. HHS is requesting a three-year clearance. 
The request for renewal of this form was originally made in the 60-day 
FRN under OMB number 0920-0428.
