program revisions. Part 74 of EDGAR applies to Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs), nonprofit organizations (NPOs), and

hospit als. Of the approximately 7,900 discretionary grants (new and non

- com peting continuation grants) that ED awards annually, 5,200 grants were awarded to IHEs, NPOs, and hospitals. Under 34 CFR 74.25 of EDGAR, very few project revisions require prior approval. It is estimated that ED will receive approximately 790 prior approval requests from grantees per year (represents 10% of the 7900 grants awarded annually) and that approximately 520 of those requests will be submitted by IHEs, NPOs, and hospitals (represents 10% of the approximately 5,200 grants awarded to IHEs, NPOs and hospitals annually). Additionally, under 34 CFR 75.261, all types of grantees including State Educational Agencies (SEAs), Local Educational Agencies (LEAs), and Federally Recognized Indian Tribal Governments may fol low the regulations in 34 CFR 74.25 (e)(2) regarding extension of a project period. Section 74.25 (e)(2) allow s grantees to initiate a one

- time extension of their projects’ expiration date of up to 12 months without prior approval from ED. Grantees, howe ver, must notify the Department that they intend to extend their grants and indicate the supporting reasons for the extension and the revised expiration date. Bases on FY 2013 time extension data from G5, the grant management system), approximately 1474 grantees annually will receive this one

- time extension of up to 12 months of their project periods

75.261 Extension of

a project period. It is estimated that annually, approximately 74 grant recipients will request a second (or more) extension of

their project periods that requires prior approval from ED (based on FY 20 13 time extension data from G 5 ). Note that recipients under the four National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research programs listed in 34 CFR 75.261 (b) of EDGAR must request prior approval for any time exten sion. The burden hours for any of these NIDRR grantees that request and receive a time extension are included with the burden hour calculations for one

- time extension listed above under 34 CFR 74.25. **REPORTING BURDEN 74**  **responses X 1 hr.=**  **74 hrs.**  (Note: the burden hours for time extension requests for grantees in the NIDRR programs listed under EDGAR, 75.261 (b) are included with the burden hours for one

- Recognized Indian Tribal Governments will request changes to their projects that require prior approval from ED. Very few changes require prior ap proval and information from grantees. **REPORTING BURDEN 190**  **responses x 1 hr. =**  **190 hrs.** 3 80.36 Procurement.
