Terms of Clearance: This request for clearancce is disapproved on the basis that the collection is not needed each year to serve the purpose for which it is intended and therefore imposes an undue burden on the respondent Moreover, the regional offices already, according to the supporting statement, "have a working knowledge ..." of the survey operations of the State agencies. Further, the computer operations of the State agencies -- to the extent that the States wish to have the Departmen provide technical or other assistance -- are discussed with R.O. staff who already have a basic understanding of the State operation and problems. These computer operations are State operations and not Federal. Accordingly, an annual collection is not needed to achieve a Federal program or policy purpose, impose an unnecessary burden on the respondents and incur unnecessary costs on the respondents and on the Federal Government for which there is no need that cannot be otherwise served.
