SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act

early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. The 
OMB is particularly interested in comments which: (1) Evaluate whether 
the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper 
performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the 
information will have practical utility; (2) Evaluate 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; (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
to be collected; and (4) Minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, including through the use of 
appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

    Type of Review: Revision.
    Title of Collection: Fiscal Operations Report for 2011-2012 and 
Application to Participate for 2013-2014 Fiscal Operations Report and 
Application to Participate (FISAP) and Reallocation Form E40-4P.

[[Page 12041]]

    OMB Control Number: 1845-0030.
    Agency Form Number(s): E40-4P.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 4,258.
    Total Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 32,961.
    Abstract: The data submitted electronically in the Fiscal 
Operations Report and Application to Participate through FISAP on the 
Web is used by the Department of Education to determine the 
institution's funding need for the award year and monitor program 
effectiveness and accountability of fund expenditures. The Reallocation 
form is part of FISAP on the Web. The Higher Education Act of 1965, as 
amended requires that if an institution anticipates not using all of 
its allocated funds for the Perkins, Federal Work-Study, and Federal 
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant programs by the end of an 
award year, it must specify the anticipated remaining unused amount to 
the Secretary. This data collection is due to expire June 30, 2012. In 
addition to renewing the expiration date, references to dates and award 
years dates have been updated on the forms and in the instructions for 
both documents. Two fields were removed from the FISAP form due to the 
termination of the Academic Competitiveness Grant and National Science 
and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent Grant programs. Additional 
clarifications were made to the FISAP instructions.
