Notice of Proposed Information Collection Requests

AGENCY: Department of Education

SUMMARY: The IC Clearance Official, Regulatory Information Management
Services, Office of Management, invites comments on the proposed
information collection requests as required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995.

DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before
\[insert the 60th day after publication of this notice\].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires that the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) provide interested Federal agencies and the public an
early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB may
amend or waive the requirement for public consultation to the extent
that public participation in the approval process would defeat the
purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal law, or
substantially interfere with any agency\'s ability to perform its
statutory obligations. The IC Clearance Official, Regulatory Information
Management Services, Office of Management, publishes that notice
containing proposed information collection requests prior to submission
of these requests to OMB. Each proposed information collection, grouped
by office, contains the following: (1) Type of review requested, e.g.
new, revision, extension, existing or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3)
Summary of the collection; (4) Description of the need for, and proposed
use of, the information; (5) Respondents and frequency of collection;
and (6) Reporting and/or Recordkeeping burden. OMB invites public
comment.

The Department of Education is especially interested in public comment
addressing the following issues: (1) is this collection necessary to the
proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the
Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents,
including through the use of information technology.
