Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 21 / Thursday, January 31, 2019 / Notices 685 

determine eligibility for a deferment of 

repayment of their federal student loan 

while receiving cancer treatment and for 

the 6-month period after such treatment. 

Section 309 of the Consolidated 

Appropriations Act, 2019, included a 

provision for the Department to 

implement this new basis for deferment. 

It was effective immediately upon 

enactment. 

Additional Information: An 

emergency clearance approval for the 

use of the system is described below 

due to the following conditions: 

On September 28, 2018, the President 

signed the Consolidated Appropriations 

Act, 2019 into law. Section 309 of the 

law included a new deferment for Direct 

Loan, FFEL Program, and Perkins Loan 

borrowers who are receiving cancer 

treatment and for the 6-month period 

following such treatment. The law was 

immediately effective, meaning that 

borrowers can immediately request and, 

if eligible, should receive the deferment. 

Because the law provided no time to 

implement before the deferment became 

effective, the Department requests that 

OMB allow the Department to clear the 

collection associated with the 

implementation for the Cancer 

Treatment Deferment using the 

emergency clearance procedures of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 

outlined in 42 U.S.C. 3507(j) by January 

24, 2019. 

Dated: January 28, 2019.

Title of Collection: Mathematics and 

Science Partnerships Program: Annual 

Performance Report. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–0669. 

Type of Review: A reinstatement of a 

previously approved information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 450. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 4,500. 

Abstract: Implemented under the No 

Child Left Behind Act of 2001, Title II, 

Part B, the Mathematics and Science 

Partnerships (MSP) program is a 

formula grant program strategically 

designed to improve the content 

knowledge of teachers and the academic 

performance of students in mathematics 

and science. By funding collaborative 

partnerships between science, 

technology, engineering, and 

mathematics (STEM) departments at 

institutions of higher education (IHEs), 

and high-need school districts, the MSP 

program enables the delivery of 

intensive, content-rich professional 

development intended to improve 

classroom instruction and, ultimately, to 

raise student achievement in math and 

science. Because MSP is a formula grant 

program, the size of individual state 

awards is based on student population 

and poverty rates, with no state 

receiving less than one half of one 

percent of the total appropriation. Each 

state is then responsible for 

administering a competitive grant 

making process to determine the 

distribution of funds across proposed 

MSP projects. The program office is 

seeking to renew this collection to allow 

it to continue to collect Annual 

Performance Reports from those 

grantees that will need to seek a no cost 

extension.
