subject to reallotment. The 1994 reauthorization of the LIHEAP statute, 
the Human Service Amendments of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-252), requires that 
the Carryover and Reallotment Report for one fiscal year be submitted 
to HHS via the On-Line Data Collection (OLDC) system by the grantee 
before the allotment for the next fiscal year may be awarded.
    The Administration for Children and Families is requesting no 
changes in the electronic collection of data with the Carryover and 
Reallotment Report, and the Simplified Instructions for Timely 
Obligations of LIHEAP Funds and Reporting Funds for Carryover and 
Reallotment. The form clarifies the information being requested and 
ensures the submission of all the required information. The form 
facilitates our response to numerous queries each year concerning the 
amounts of obligated funds. Use of the form is voluntary. Grantees have 
the option to use another format.
    Respondents: State Governments, Tribal Governments, Insular Areas, 
the District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
