Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Developmental Disabilities State Plan.
    OMB No.: 0980-0162.
    Description: A Plan developed by the State Council on Developmental 
Disabilities is required by federal statute. Each State Council on 
Developmental Disabilities must develop the plan, provide for public 
comments in the State, provide for approval by the State's Governor, 
and finally submit the plan on a five-year basis. On an annual basis, 
the Council must review the plan and make any amendments. The State 
Plan will be used (1) by the Council as a planning document; (2) by the 
citizenry of the State as a mechanism for commenting on the plans of 
the Council; and (3) by the Department as a stewardship tool, for 
ensuring compliance with the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and 
Bill of Rights Act, as one basis for providing technical assistance 
(e.g., during site visits), and as a support for management decision 
making.
    Respondents: State and Tribal Govenments.
