SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, ACL has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance. ACL invites comments on: (1) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
ACL's functions, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of ACL's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques when 
appropriate, and other forms of information technology. The 
Certification on Maintenance of Effort for the Title III and 
Certification of Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program Expenditures provides 
statutorily required information regarding state's contribution to 
programs funded under the Older American's Act and conformance with 
legislative requirements, pertinent Federal regulations and other 
applicable instructions and guidelines issued by the Administration on 
Aging. This information will be used for Federal oversight of Title III 
Programs and the Title VII Ombudsman Program.
    ACL estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows: 56 State Agencies on Aging respond annually with an average 
burden of one half (1/2) hour per State agency or a total of twenty-
eight hours for all state agencies annually. In the Federal Register of 
March 21, 2014 (Vol. 79 No. 55 Page 15751) the agency requested 
comments on the proposed collection of information. No comments were 
received.

    Dated: May 29, 2014.
Kathy Greenlee,
Administrator and Assistant Secretary for Aging.
