Short Statement:
The burden estimates were revised to account for the number of states that have exhausted their STC grants. Additionally, the CARES Act added a new set of grants that also requires quarterly progress reports (QPRs). Because of these additional grants, the burden hours have been adjusted to account for the in increase of grants that require the QPRs. Nineteen states have STC grant funds remaining. Sixteen of those states have funds remaining on two grants each and three states have funds remaining on one grant each. Additionally, previous burden estimates related to the temporary financing of STC payments by the Federal Government, applying for an STC grant(s), and applying to operate a temporary Federal STC program (for states without STC programs in state law), were removed as such estimates are not applicable beyond the current expiration date.
