on the standardization and consistent use of standard forms and
FEMA forms associated with grantees' requests for disaster and
non-disaster Federal assistance, submission of financial and

will minimize burden on the respondents and enable FEMA to continue
to improve in its grants administration practices.

the response and burden hours due to close-out of some grant
program and the discontinuation of some of the grant programs. This
