INTER-AMERICAN FOUNDATION


60-Day Notice for the ``Grantee Conflicts of Interest Disclosure 
Form''

AGENCY: Inter-American Foundation.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Inter-American Foundation (IAF), as part of its continuing 
efforts to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and 
federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or 
continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995. This program helps ensure that requested data is 
provided in the desired format; reporting burden (time and financial 
resources) is minimized; collection instruments are clearly understood; 
and the impact of collection requirements on respondents is properly 
assessed. Currently, the IAF is soliciting comments concerning the 
information collection of grantee conflicts of interest through grant 
agreement packages. The purpose of this form is to give grantees an 
opportunity to disclose any personal or organizational conflicts of 
interest, or potential for conflicts of interest. Grantees who have a 
conflict or potential conflict must disclose all relationships with 
which it or any covered person has that create, or appear to create, a 
conflict of interest.

DATES: Written comments must be submitted to the office listed in the 
address section below within 60 days from the date of this publication 
in the Federal Register.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Natalia Mandrus, Inter-American Foundation, 
via email to [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The IAF is particularly interested in 
comments which:

--Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary 
for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
--Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
--Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and
--Can help the agency minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, including through the use of 
appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., 
permitting electronic submission of responses.
