SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, AoA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. This notice solicits comments on the information collection requirements relating to organizations that wish to enroll as a partner with AoA in a campaign to create awareness and make nutrition and physical activity programs available to older Americans. The requested information includes providing general information about the entity, its programs, and counts of populations served.

AoA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: AoA estimates a total of no more than 500 hours will be required to collect this information. This estimate is based on these assumptions: AoA estimates that 2,000 organizations will complete an entry form to become a campaign partner. Completion of each entry form will require a total of 15 minutes per organization including five minutes to answer questions, five minutes to insert a program description, and five minutes to look up data from existing program records.
