Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request; Small Business Innovation Research Program--Phase II

AGENCY: National Institute on Disability, Independent Living and 
Rehabilitation, Administration for Community Living (ACL), HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Administration for Community Living (ACL), National 
Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation 
Research (NIDLRR) is announcing that the proposed collection of 
information listed below has been submitted to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995. This notice solicits comments on the information 
collection requirements relating to the Small Business Innovation 
Research Program (SBIR)--Phase II. Specifically, the information 
collection is the SBIR Application package, which provides information 
on requirements for the application including mandatory information 
provided via government- approved forms.

DATES: Submit comments on the collection of information by November 30, 
2015.

ADDRESSES: Submit comments on the collection of information by fax 
202.395.5806 or by email to [email protected], Attn: OMB Desk 
Officer for ACL.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Brian Bard 202-254-7345 or 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal 
agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor. 
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 
1320.3(c) and includes agency request or requirements that members of 
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a 
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44

[[Page 66539]]

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies to provide a 60-day 
notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of 
information, including each proposed extension of an existing 
collection of information, before submitting the collection to OMB for 
approval. This information collection is the SBIR Application Package. 
To comply with this requirement, ACL/NIDILRR published a notice of the 
proposed collection of information set forth in this document, inviting 
comment on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of ACL/NIDILRR's functions, 
including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the 
accuracy of ACL/NIDILRR's estimate of the burden of the proposed 
collection of information, including the validity of the methodology 
and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 
clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize 
the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including 
through the use of automated collection techniques when appropriate, 
and other forms of information technology. NIDILRR received one comment 
asking for more information on the method by which it calculated 
burden. The Application Package, including instructions and forms, has 
been in continuous use with minor modifications since it was first 
approved by OMB in FY2012. This request is for approval to extent the 
current form and instructions, with minor modifications to change the 
sponsoring agency from Department of Education to Department of Health 
and Human Services (per requirement of the Workforce Innovation 
Opportunity Act) for three years, covering the FY 2015-2017 reporting 
periods.

    Dated: October 23, 2015.

Administrator and Assistant Secretary for Aging.
