In accordance
with 5 USC 1320, OMB approves this information collection until
October 1, 1988. During the next year, EDA will undertake a major
revision of the 101P and 101A forms to make them comport with
revisions to Circular A-102. In addition, EDA will evaluate the
need for Exhibits IV-A-7a and IV-A-7b on the 101P form, and will
eliminate all duplication between the 101P and 101A forms, and
report to OMB on progress in this area at the time of submission
next year. Finally, the burden hours per respondent for the 101P
form has been changed to 8 hours to more accurately reflect the
amount of time necessary to fill out the form.
