SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Department of Education (ED), in 

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: Formula Grant 

EASIE Annual Performance Report. 

OMB Control Number: 1810—NEW. 

Type of Review: A new information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 1,300. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 20,800. 

Abstract: The purpose of Indian 

Education Formula Grant to Local 

Agencies, as authorized under Title VII, 

part A, subpart 1 of the Elementary and 

Secondary Education Act, as amended 

(sections 7111–7119, 20 U.S.C. 7421– 

7429) is to assist applicants to provide 

Indian students with the opportunity to 

meet the same challenging state 

standards as all other students and meet 

the unique educational and culturally 

related academic needs of American 

Indian and Alaska Native students. The 

Indian Education Formula Grant (CFDA 

84.060A) is not competitive or 

discretionary and requires the annual 

submission of the application from 

either a local education agency (LEA) 

and/or tribe. The amount of the award 

for each applicant is determined by a 

formula based on the reported number 

of American Indian/Alaska Native 

students identified in the application, 

the state per pupil expenditure, and the 

total appropriation available. The 524B 

Annual Performance Report (APR) was 

designed for discretionary grants, 

however the title VII program is a 

formula grant program. Therefore, the 

EASIE APR goes beyond the generic 

524B APR and facilitates the collection 

of more specific and comprehensive 

data due to grantees entering project 

specific data into an online database. 

This will allow for a comparison of 

LEAs across objectives. By entering 

information into the EASIE APR 

database, data will be able to be 

generated quickly and uniformly to 

facilitate data collection, as required 

under 34 CFR 75.720, and 2 CFR part 

200.301. This APR will improve the 

quality of data collected that can be 

used for evaluation and to help make 

policy decisions, reduce burden on the 

grantees, and allow ED to inform 

Congress on the outcomes of this grant 

program.
