provides management and oversight of the circular. OMB also provides
for a standard figure of seventy burden hours per grantee for

programs that utilize the standard OMB forms SF 269, SF 270, SF 271, SF
272 and SF 424.
Respondents: State and local governments receiving Federal
financial assistance from the DOT.

utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
