SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION


Data Collection Available for Public Comments and Recommendations

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this 
notice announces the Small Business Administration's intentions to 
request approval on a new and/or currently approved information 
collection.

DATES: Submit comments on or before August 24, 2010.

ADDRESSES: Send all comments regarding whether this information 
collection is necessary for the proper performance of the function of 
the agency, whether the burden estimates are accurate, and if there are 
ways to minimize the estimated burden and enhance the quality of the 
collection, to Kirk McElwain, Web Director, Office of Communications 
and Public Liaison, Small Business Administration, 409 3rd Street, 7th 
Floor, Washington, DC 20416.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kirk McElwain, Office of 
Communications and Public Liaison, 202-205-6175 [email protected], 
or Curtis B. Rich, Management Analyst, 202-205-7030, 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SBA plans to make its SBA.gov Web site more 
user-centric and focused on the needs of small businesses and lenders. 
The SBA would like the new site to incorporate innovative and 
meaningful online tools and features that effectively deliver 
information and services to lenders and small businesses, and enable 
businesses to gain necessary access to the capital and tools they need 
to drive economic recovery and create and retain jobs. It will enable 
entrepreneurs, small business owners, and lenders to save time and 
money by providing them with tools to find information they need from 
local, state, and federal government and a forum to learn from their 
peers and industry experts. The content and services delivered to 
SBA.gov users will be most valuable if they are relevant and specific 
to their needs. Without regular program information collections, SBA 
would be unable to determine these needs and efficiently meet them. 
Furthermore, this information collection will allow the SBA to deliver 
the Agency's core values of customer service, accountability, and 
transparency and carry out the intent of Executive Orders 12862. 
Absence of the information provided by willing participants would 
impact SBA's ability to carry out its mission and the mandates of 
Executive Order 12862, as well as President Obama's January 21, 2009, 
memorandum on transparency and open government.
    Title: ``SBA Direct and SBA Online Community.''
    Description of Respondents: On Occasion.
    Form Number: N/A.
    Annual Responses: 710,000.
