We are particularly interested in comments on whether the information collected in the forms could be more consistent with other governmentwide grant-related information collections.

We cannot guarantee that comments mailed will be received before the comment closing date.

ADDRESSES:

Comments may be sent to http://www.regulations.gov,, a Federal E-Government Web site that allows the public to find, review, and submit comments on documents that agencies have published in the Federal Register and that are open for comment. Simply type “SF-LLL renewal” (in quotes) in the Comment or Submission search box, click Go, and follow the instructions for submitting comments.
