SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general 

public and Federal agencies with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed, 

revised, and continuing collections of 

information. This helps the Department 

assess the impact of its information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. It also 

helps the public understand the 

Department’s information collection 

requirements and provide the requested 

data in the desired format. ED is 

soliciting comments on the proposed 

information collection request (ICR) that 

is described below. 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. Please note 

that written comments received in 

response to this notice will be 

considered public records. 

Title of Collection: RandolphSheppard Financial Relief and 

Restoration Payments Appropriation. 

OMB Control Number: 1820–NEW. 

Type of Review: A new information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: Federal 

Government. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 51. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 51. 

Abstract: This is an emergency 

clearance of a new information 

collection resulting from enactment of 

the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 

2021, Division H, Title III, Section 318. 

This provision authorized the Secretary 

of Education to allot $20,000,000 for 

one-time financial relief and restoration 

grants consistent with the purposes of 

the Randolph-Sheppard Act as 

authorized under section 10 of such Act 

(20 U.S.C. 107f). Prior to this legislation, 

Congress has not appropriated such 

funds concerning the RandolphSheppard Vending Facility Program, as 

such the Department is seeking this data 

collection in order to meet its obligation 

to ensure that Federal funds are being 

used for their prescribed purposes. 

Additional Information: An 

emergency clearance approval for the 

use of the system is described below 

due to the following conditions: If this 

emergency collection is not approved, 

ED will be unable to provide the timely 

awards to SLAs who, in turn, will not 

be able to provide the financial relief 

and restoration payments to blind 

vendors for their losses incurred in 2020 

that was mandated by section 318 in a 

timely manner. 

Dated: February 9, 2021.
