2024-22034. Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB Review; Public Comment Request; ACL Administration on Aging Formula Grant Programs (OMB Control Number 0985-New)

Organization	Section	Comment	Response
Commonwealth of Virginia, Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services	Estimated Annualized Burden Table	Noted that the burden estimates for State Plans on Aging, and State Plans on APS are too low. Recommended identification of ways to reduce reporting requirements, as well as revising burden estimates. Recommended survey of states to inform future burden estimates	ACL appreciates the comment but declines to make changes at this time.

This 30-day notice publication makes correction to the information collection type in the previous 30-day notice published in the Federal Register on Tuesday, May 28, 2024, at 89 FR 46123. That notice requested public comment on this information collection as a generic information collection request.
