Cutting Redundancy
Short Statement:
The program change is due to revisions in the EID checklist. Based on three years of data collection and reviews the form was redesigned to cause the minimum impact in the form of hourly burden on grant applicants and still meet the current minimum requirements for NEPA. The questions have been revised and streamlined for clarity, and the questions reorganized and reduced to accurately mirror environmental policy and procedural requirements, such as environmental justice and cumulative environmental impacts. This has resulted in a reduction of 25 questions, and a document that provides better ease of use by applicants. In addition, the estimated number of applicants that would be required to fill out the checklist has decreased. This is due to the initial projected estimate being based on American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) applications that were expected over a one year period. The annualized burden decreased when averaged with applications for non-discretionary awards and Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act programs over a three year period.
