DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


Agency Information Collection Extension

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Submission for Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review; 
comment request.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy (DOE) has submitted an information 
collection request to the OMB for extension under the provisions of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The information collection requests a 
three-year extension of its Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP), 
OMB Control Number 1910-5127. The Department of Energy (DOE) 
Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) is a formula grant program. DOE 
has developed four forms designed to reduce the length of time to input 
information and provide a consistent format for all States to submit as 
part of their State Application and Plan process. This activity will 
benefit the program and State because all forms are in electronic 
format that will populate a database for program information. The 
program information captured will be used to provide the most current 
program information for budget, congressional and public inquiries to 
the program. The forms will be used as part of the Grants.gov process.

DATES: Comments regarding this collection must be received on or before 
July 7, 2008. If you anticipate that you will be submitting comments, 
but find it difficult to do so within the period of time allowed by 
this notice, please advise the OMB Desk Officer of your intention to 
make a submission as soon as possible. The Desk Officer may be 
telephoned at 202-395-4650.
