The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is requesting public comments on proposed revisions to the Child Care Improper Payments Data Collection Instructions and is seeking a 3-year extension for these revisions. This involves updates to the data collection instructions and forms, particularly revising estimated burden hours and standardizing error causes to improve the clarity and accuracy of data submissions. Comments must be submitted by March 7, 2025, and are crucial for ensuring that these changes effectively reduce the reporting burden on States while maintaining accurate data on improper payments. The feedback, in particular, will help refine the proposed standardized list of error causes included in the data collection forms.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is inviting public comments on a proposed information collection related to coastal and estuarine land conservation. This collection is conducted under the Coastal Zone Management Act to support activities like land acquisition and restoration. The public has 60 days to submit their input, either electronically or by mail, on aspects such as the collection's necessity, accuracy, and ways to reduce reporting burdens. The NOAA intends to use this information to evaluate project proposals and ensure compliance with environmental laws.

The Department of State is asking the public to comment on a proposed information collection process before it is submitted for approval. This involves data collected through the MyGrants application from overseas schools receiving grants from the U.S. government. The State Department wants feedback to confirm if the data collection is necessary, how accurate their time and cost estimates are, and if there are ways to reduce the reporting burden. The comments provided will be public records, so personal information included will be visible to others.
