Refugee Support Services (RSS) and RSS Set Aside Sub-Agency List 
(Office of Management and Budget #0970-0556). ORR is not proposing any 
changes to the form.

decision about the collection of information between 30 and 60 days 
after publication of this document in the Federal Register. Therefore,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The RSS and RSS Set Aside Sub-Agency List requests 
grantees to provide the agency name, city, state, website, and funding 
amount for each contracted sub-grantee.
    The information will be used for national resource mapping 
pertaining to ORR RSS funding at the local level. Improved 
communication and the knowledge of all local providers is important to 
ORR's overall oversight of the program. In addition to RSS formula 
funding to states and state replacement agencies who then issue sub-
awards to local providers, ORR also awards discretionary grants that 
directly fund local refugee service providers. This report will 
continue to provide ORR a complete picture of the availability all ORR 
resources to assist newly arrived refugees at the local level 
increasing our ability to identify gaps or target areas of need.
    Respondents: State agencies and replacement designees under 45 CFR 
400.301(c) administering or supervising the administration of programs.
