SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, AoA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance.
    The Fourth National Survey of Older Americans Act Service 
Recipients builds on earlier national studies and performance 
measurement tools developed by grantees in the Performance Outcomes 
Measures Project (POMP). It will include consumer assessment surveys 
for congregate and home delivered meal nutrition program, 
transportation, homecare services and other title IIIB services, and 
National Family Caregiver Support Program. Copies of the POMP 
instruments can be located at http://www.gpra.net. Information 
collected through the study will be used by AoA to track performance 
outcome measures, support budget requests; comply with Government 
Performance Results Act (GPRA) reporting requirements; provide 
information for OMB's program assessment (PART) process; provide 
national benchmark information for grantees and inform program 
improvement and management initiatives.
    AoA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows: 250 Area Agencies on Aging will have to commit 4 hours each 
for identifying potential clients to be interviewed for the survey. The 
estimated burden is 1,000 hours. 6,000 individuals will be surveyed 
about their usage and satisfaction with services. Each interview takes 
approximately 30 minutes for an estimated burden of 3,000 hours. Total 
burden of data collection is 4,000 hours.

    Dated: August 8, 2007.
Josefina G. Carbonell,
Assistant Secretary for Aging.
