FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To 

request more information on this 

proposed information collection or to 

obtain a copy of the proposal and 

associated collection instruments, 

please write to the Department of the 

Army, Military Surface Deployment and 

Distribution Command, 1 Soldier Way,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; 

Associated Form; and OMB Number: 

Department of Defense Standard Tender 

of Freight Services; SDDC Form 364–R; 

OMB Control Number 0704–0261. 

Needs and Uses: The information 

derived from the DoD tenders on file 

with the Military Surface Deployment 

and Distribution Command (SDDC) is 

used by SDDC subordinate commands 

and DoD shippers to select the best 

value carriers to transport surface freight 

shipments. Freight carriers furnish 

information in a uniform format so that 

the Government can determine the cost 

of transportation, accessorial, and 

security services, and select the best 

value carriers for 1.1 million Bill of 

Lading shipments annually. The DoD 

tender is the source document for the 

General Services Administration postshipment audit of carrier freight bills. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit. 

Annual Burden Hours: 300. 

Number of Respondents: 1,200. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Average Burden per Response: 15 

minutes. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

The DoD tender format was developed 

to take advantage of improved 

information collection technology and 

to connect with ongoing initiatives to 

implement automated systems to file 

tenders, select carriers, quote rates, and 

audits. The disciplined data fields of the 

tenders will facilitate the Electronic 

Data Interchange of tender data between 

carriers and SDDC, also between SDDC 

subordinate commands and DoD 

shippers. This initiative ultimately will 

permit electronic filing of the tender 

and eliminate mailing paper documents, 

which are manually processed.

Title of Collection: William D. Ford 

Federal Direct Loan Program—150% 

Limitation 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0116 

Type of Review: Extension without 

change of an existing collection of 

information. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals or households, State, Local, 

or Tribal Governments, Private Sector 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 7,770,494 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 282,713 

Abstract: These data will allow the 

Department to calculate the borrowers 

maximum eligibility period, subsidized 

usage period, and remaining eligibility 

period as described in 685.200(f)(1)(ii)– 

(f)(1)(iv), determine whether the 

borrower is eligible to receive an 

additional Direct Subsidized Loan, and 

ensure that borrowers do not receive 

Direct Subsidized Loans if they are no 

longer eligible to receive a Direct 

Subsidized Loan under 685.200(f)(2). 

The Department will determine 

whether the borrower is responsible for 

accruing interest on their previously 

received Direct Subsidized Loans. To 

ensure that the Department has the 

information to necessary to make that 

determination, institutions will be 

required to report additional 

information to NSLDS. For example, 

institutions will be required to report: 

The CIP code and the credential level 

for the program in which a borrower is 

enrolled; the length of the program in 

academic years, weeks, or months 

(consistent with current institutional 

reporting in the COD System); and a 

more detailed enrollment status of the 

borrower (e.g., full-time, three-quartertime, half-time, or less-than-half-time). 

These data will allow the Department 

to determine whether a borrower who is 

not eligible for additional Direct 

Subsidized Loans is responsible for 

accruing interest on his or her 

previously received Direct Subsidized 

Loans. 

The regulations implement a new 

statutory requirement that significantly 

limits a borrower’s eligibility for Direct 

Subsidized Loans and potentially 

results in the borrower becoming 

responsible for accruing interest on 

existing Direct Subsidized Loans. Under 

section 485(l) of the HEA, which 

requires that borrowers be provided 

with entrance and exit counseling on 

the provisions governing federal student 

aid, institutions will be required to 

revise the entrance and exit counseling 

provided to borrowers. 

For entrance counseling, the added 

counseling requirements under 685.304 

will require institutions to explain the 

new provisions to borrowers.
