Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
Title: Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Carryover and Reallotment Report.
OMB No.: 0970-0106.
Description: The LIHEAP statute and regulations require LIHEAP grantees to report certain information to HHS concerning funds forwarded and funds 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 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 collection of data with the Carryover and Reallotment
Report, a form for the collection of data, 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.
