The proposed Annual Data Report (ADR)
is intended to replace portions of the Administration for Native
Americans' (ANA) Objective Progress Report. (OPR) ANA has
determined that the requirement for ANA grantees to submit
information about the project activities on quarterly basis creates
undue burden for Grantees. Therefore, ANA has reformatted the OPR
to require Grantees submit an annual report instead of quarterly
report when reporting. All grantees will be required to complete
and submit this report as proposed as a requirement of their grant
award. This will not replace the current approved OPR, but will
supplement it on an annual basis. Free technical assistance will be
available to all grantees on the usage of this ADR form.
