Approved as
amended by ACTION's memoranda to OMB of 4/16/92, 4/27/92, 4/30/92,
5/8/92, and 5/13/92. In addition, this approval incorporates the
burden of submitting the ACTION self-evaluation certification,
approved under OMB #3001-0128. ACTION shall cite OMB #3001-0130
(for this document) on its revised Handbook #240, along with the
revised burden estimate of fourhours per respondent. -- OMB
received 286 public comments regarding this information collection,
copies of which have been forwarded to ACTION. ACTION sha publish
its response to the concerns raised in these letters through a
Federal Register notice, which shall be submitted for OMB review
prior to publication. The notice shall address major issues raised
by commenters, including issued identified by OMB, and how ACTION
resolve these issues during Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) review.
-- OMB notes that prior to this review, ACTION had required this
information collection without approval under the PRA. Our
endorsement of ACTION's decision to limit the mandatory information
to the certification of accessibility, while making the
self-evaluation survey voluntary, does not supercede that prior
violation of the PRA. ACTION shall submit all information
collections and recordkeeping requirements for PRA review in the
future.
