Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request

    Periodically, the Health Resources and Services Administration 
(HRSA) publishes abstracts of information collection requests under 
review by the Office of Management and Budget, in compliance with the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a 
copy of the clearance requests submitted to OMB for review, call the 
HRSA Reports Clearance Office on (301)-443-1129.
    The following request has been submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995:

HRSA Competing Training Grant Application, Instructions and Related 
Regulations (OMB No. 0915-0060)--Extension and Revision

    The Health Resources and Services Administration uses the 
information in the application to determine the eligibility of 
applicants for awards, to calculate the amount of each award, and to 
judge the relative merit of applications. This is a request for renewed 
clearance with several changes in the form. The form will be 
distributed electronically via the Internet, the budget will be 
negotiated for all years of the project period based on this 
application, and program-specific instructions will include greater 
standardization of content for the project summary and the detailed 
description of the project. Applications for selected programs must 
include data specified in statute. The statutory requirements are 
included in this clearance request.
    Regulations which authorize the application form and other 
reporting, disclosure and recordkeeping requirements for various 
programs are also cleared in this package. No changes were made to the 
regulations.
    The estimated annual burden for the application and associated 
regulations is as follows:
