to the public grant deliverables created 

in whole, or in part, with Department 

grant funds. When the deliverable 

consists of modifications to pre-existing 

works, the license extends only to those 

modifications that can be separately 

identified and only to the extent that 

open licensing is permitted under the 

terms of any licenses or other legal 

restrictions on the use of pre-existing 

works. Additionally, a grantee or 

subgrantee that is awarded competitive 

grant funds must have a plan to 

disseminate these public grant 

deliverables. This dissemination plan 

can be developed and submitted after 

your application has been reviewed and 

selected for funding. For additional 

information on the open licensing 

requirements please refer to 2 CFR 

3474.20. 

4. Reporting: (a) If you apply for a 

grant under this competition, you must 

ensure that you have in place the 

necessary processes and systems to 

comply with the reporting requirements 

in 2 CFR part 170 should you receive 

funding under the competition. This 

does not apply if you have an exception 

under 2 CFR 170.110(b). 

(b) At the end of your project period, 

you must submit a final performance 

report, including financial information, 

as directed by the Secretary. If you 

receive a multiyear award, you must 

submit an annual performance report 

that provides the most current 

performance and financial expenditure 

information as directed by the Secretary 

under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary 

may also require more frequent 

performance reports under 34 CFR 

75.720(c). For specific requirements on 

reporting, please go to www.ed.gov/ 

fund/grant/apply/appforms/ 

appforms.html. 

5. Performance Measures: The 

Department has established the 

following Government Performance and 

Results Act of 1993 performance 

measures for the School Climate 

Transformation Grant Program—State 

Educational Agency Grants: 

(a) The number of training and 

technical assistance events provided by 

the SEA School Climate Transformation 

Grant Program to assist LEAs in 

implementing a multitiered behavioral 

framework. 

(b) The number and percentage of 

schools in LEAs provided training or 

technical assistance by the SEA School 

Climate Transformation Grant Program 

that implement a multitiered behavioral 

framework. 

(c) The number and percentage of 

LEAs provided training or technical 

assistance by the SEA School Climate 

Transformation Grant Program that 

implement a multitiered behavioral 

framework with fidelity. 

These measures constitute the 

Department’s indicators of success for 

this program. Consequently, we advise 

an applicant for a grant under this 

program to give careful consideration to 

these measures in conceptualizing the 

approach and evaluation for its 

proposed project. Each grantee will be 

required to provide, in its annual 

performance and final reports, data 

about its progress in meeting these 

measures. This data will be considered 

by the Department in making 

continuation awards. 

Consistent with 34 CFR 75.591, 

grantees funded under this program 

shall comply with the requirements of 

any evaluation of the program 

conducted by the Department or an 

evaluator selected by the Department. 

6. Continuation Awards: In making a 

continuation award, the Secretary may 

consider, under 34 CFR 75.253, the 

extent to which a grantee has made 

substantial progress in achieving the 

goals and objectives of the project; 

whether the grantee has expended funds 

in a manner that is consistent with its 

approved application and budget; and, 

if the Secretary has established 

performance measurement 

requirements, the performance targets in 

the grantee’s approved application. 

In making a continuation award, the 

Secretary also considers whether the 

grantee is operating in compliance with 

the assurances in its approved 

application, including those applicable 

to Federal civil rights laws that prohibit 

discrimination in programs or activities 

receiving Federal financial assistance 

from the Department (34 CFR 100.4, 

104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Agency Information Collection 

Extension 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy 

(DOE), pursuant to the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, intends to 

extend for three years, an information 

collection request with the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB). 

Comments are invited on: Whether the 

extended collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

DATES: Comments regarding this 

proposed information collection must 

be received on or before September 24, 

2018. If you anticipate difficulty in 

submitting comments within that 

period, contact the person listed below 

as soon as possible. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be 

sent Andre de Fontaine, EE–5A/ 

Forrestal Building, 1000 Independence 

Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20585, by 

fax at (202) 586–8177, or by email at 

andre.defontaine@ee.doe.gov.

copies of the information collection 

instrument and instructions should be 

directed to Andre de Fontaine, EE–5A/ 

Forrestal Building, 1000 Independence 

Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20585, by 

fax at (202) 586–8177, or by email at 

andre.defontaine@ee.doe.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

information collection request contains: 

(1) OMB No. 1910–5141; 

(2) Information Collection Request 

Title: Department of Energy Better 

Buildings Challenge, Better Buildings 

Alliance, and the Better Buildings, 

Better Plants Voluntary Pledge Program; 

(3) Type of Review: Extension with 

Revision of a Currently Approved 

Collection 

(4) Purpose: This Information 

Collection Request applies to three 

Department of Energy (DOE) voluntary 

leadership initiatives that fall under 

DOE’s Better Buildings Initiative: (1) 

The Better Buildings Challenge; (2) the 

Better Buildings, Better Plants Program 

(Better Plants); and (3) the Better 

Buildings Alliance. Two new 

information collection instruments are 

proposed in order to streamline the 

application process for a manufacturing 

leadership awards program under Better 

Plants. Other pre-existing collection 

forms are being amended for clarity and 

to reduce burden on respondents. Also, 

the total number of respondents and 

response time for individual program 

areas is being adjusted to align with 

practical experience and to account for 

the program’s growth over time. For 

example, due to improved data quality 

controls and greater experience 

observing partners, the hours per 

response has been increased for the 

Better Buildings, Better Plants Challenge 

Annual Reporting Form. The total 

number of hours associated with the 

Annual Better Plants Program Pledge 

Form was decreased to account for the 

establishment of more efficient internal 

collection processes as partners gain 

experience in the program. The number 

of hours per response for both the Better 

Buildings, Better Plants Web Profile 

Development and Water Data Collection 

forms, respectively, were changed to 

reflect actual partner response time 

based on practical experience. 

The leadership initiatives in the 

Better Buildings Initiative covered 

under this Information Collection 

Request are intended to drive greater 

energy and water efficiency in the 

commercial, public, residential, data 

center, and industrial marketplace to 

reduce pollution, cut costs, and create 

jobs. This is accomplished by 

highlighting the ways participants 

overcome market barriers to greater 

efficiency with replicable solutions. The 

program showcases real solutions and 

partners with industry leaders to better 

understand policy and technical 

opportunities. There are three types of 

information to be collected from 

primary participants, also referred to as 

‘‘Partners’’: (1) Background data, 

including contact information, a 

partnership agreement form, logo(s), 

information needed to support public 

announcements, updates on 

participants’ showcase projects, and an 

energy savings goal; (2) Portfolio-wide 

energy performance information; and (3) 

Information on market innovations 

participants are including in their 

energy efficiency processes. Background 

data is primarily used to develop 

website content that is publically 

available. Portfolio-wide facility-level 

energy performance information is used 

by DOE to measure the participants’ 

progress in meeting the goals of the 

program, as well as to aggregate the 

change in energy performance and 

related metrics for the entire program. 

Information on market innovation is 

used to highlight successful strategies 

participants use to overcome challenges, 

and is made publicly available. 

Additional background information is 

being collected from ‘‘Allies’’, financial 

and utility organizations that make a 

public commitment to support the 

energy efficiency marketplace. 

Background information including 

name, dollars committed to the market, 

and a company logo is also used to 

develop publically available website 

content. Responses to the DOE’s 

Information Collection Request are 

voluntary. 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of 

Respondents: 752, a slight increase over 

the current ICR’s 740, which reflects 

modest growth in participation across 

the programs. 

(6) Annual Estimated Number of 

Total Responses: 897, a slight decrease 

from the current ICR’s 933, which is 

driven by a change in frequency of 

reporting from biannual to annual for 

one information collection form. 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 2,232.25, a decrease from 

the current ICR’s 2,709.25, which 

reflects improved data collection and 

reporting processes put in place by 

partners, especially those that have been 

participating in the programs for 

multiple years. 

(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $90,475, a 

reduction from the current ICR’s 

$106,934. 

Statutory Authority: Section 421 of 

the Energy Independence and Security 

Act of 2007 (42 U.S.C. 17081); Section 

911 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, as 

amended (42 U.S.C. 16191).
