Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: ACF Grantee Survey of the Low Income Home Energy Assistance 
Program (LIHEAP).
    OMB No.: 0970-0076.
    Description: The LIHEAP Grantee Survey is an annual data collection 
activity, which is sent to grantees of the 50 states and the District 
of Columbia administering the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program 
(LIHEAP). The survey is mandatory in order that national estimates of 
the sources and uses of LIHEAP funds can be calculated in a timely 
manner; a range can be calculated of State average LIHEAP benefits; and 
maximum income cutoffs for four-person households can be obtained for 
estimating the number of low-income households that are income eligible 
for LIHEAP under the State income standards. The need for the above 
information is to provide the Administration and Congress with fiscal 
estimates in time for hearings about LIHEAP appropriations and program 
performance. The information also is included in the Departments annual 
LIHEAP Report to Congress. Survey information also will be posted on 
the Office of Community Services LIHEAP Web site for access by grantees 
and other interested parties.
