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: Student Assistance 

General Provisions—Readmission for 

Servicemembers. 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0095. 

Type of Review: Extension of an 

existing information collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals or households; Private 

Sector (Not-for-profit institutions), State, 

Local, or Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 13,975. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 2,260. 

Abstract: This is a request for an 

extension of the current information

Education Opportunity Act, the 

regulations state the requirements under 

which an institution must readmit 

servicemembers with the same 

academic status they had at the 

institution when they last attended (or 

where they were accepted for 

attendance). The regulations require 

institutions to charge readmitted 

servicemembers, for the first academic 

year of their return, the same 

institutional charges they were charged 

for the academic year during which they 

left the institution (see section 484C of 

the Higher Education Act).

extend for three years, an information 

collection request with the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB).

Comments are invited on: (a) 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; (b) 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; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) 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. This information collection 

request pertains to the Human 

Reliability Program (HRP). This 

information collection request consists 

of forms that will certify to DOE that 

respondents were advised of the 

requirements for occupying or 

continuing to occupy a HRP position. 

The forms include: Human Reliability 

Program Certification (DOE F 470.3), 

Acknowledgement and Agreement to 

Participate in the Human Reliability 

Program (DOE F 470.4), Authorization 

and Consent to Release Human 

Reliability Program (HRP) Records in 

Connection with HRP (DOE F 470.5), 

Refusal of Consent (DOE F 470.6), and 

Human Reliability Program (HRP) 

Alcohol Testing Form (DOE F 470.7). 

The HRP is a security and safety 

reliability program for individuals who 

apply for or occupy certain positions 

that are critical to the national security. 

It requires an initial and annual 

supervisory review, medical assessment, 

management evaluation, and a DOE 

personnel security review of all 

applicants or incumbents. It is also used 

to ensure that employees assigned to 

nuclear explosive duties do not have 

emotional, mental, or physical 

conditions that could result in an 

accidental or unauthorized detonation 

of nuclear explosives. 

DATES: Comments regarding this 

proposed information collection must 

be received on or before February 4, 

2013. If you anticipate difficulty in 

submitting comments within that 

period, contact the person listed below 

as soon as possible.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Energy Information Administration 

Notice of Change to the Publication of 

Natural Gas Wellhead Prices 

AGENCY: U.S. Energy Information 

Administration (EIA), Department of 

Energy (DOE). 

ACTION: Notice of a discontinuation of 

series in the publication of natural gas 

wellhead prices and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: EIA is announcing the 

discontinuation of the natural gas 

wellhead price series. Beginning in 

January 2013, EIA will discontinue 

publishing wellhead prices, and will 

begin publishing a natural gas spot price 

at the Henry Hub and an NGL composite 

spot price at Mont Belvieu. Comments 

are invited on the proposed change. 

Please provide a description of your 

current use of the wellhead price data 

if applicable. 

DATES: Comments must be filed by 

February 4, 2013. If you anticipate 

difficulty in submitting comments 

within that period, contact the person 

listed below as soon as possible. 

ADDRESSES: Comments should be 

mailed to Jose Villar, EI–24, Forrestal 

Building, U.S. Department of Energy, 

1000 Independence Ave. SW., 

Washington, DC 20585. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Requests for additional information 

should be directed to Jose Villar at

202–586–9613. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

II. Discussion 

III. Current Actions 

I. Background 

The Federal Energy Administration 

Act of 1974 (Pub. L. 93–275, 15 U.S.C. 

761 et seq.) and the DOE Organization 

Act (Pub. L. 95–91, 42 U.S.C. 7101 et 

seq.) require the EIA to carry out a 

centralized, comprehensive, and unified 

energy information program. This 

program collects, evaluates, assembles, 

analyzes, and disseminates information 

on energy resource reserves, production, 

demand, technology, and related 

economic statistics. This information is 

used to assess the adequacy of energy 

resources to meet both near- and longerterm domestic demands. 

EIA requests public comment on the 

discontinuation of the natural gas 

wellhead price data in an effort to 

reduce data and conceptual issues 

associated with the series. 

Historically, the EIA published 

natural gas wellhead prices on an 

annual basis by state and on a monthly 

basis nationally. EIA has defined the 

wellhead price as the per-unit value at 

the mouth of the well (i.e., the wellhead 

price is considered to be the sales price 

obtainable from a third party in an arm’s 

length transaction). These data appeared 

in the Natural Gas Monthly, http:// 

www.eia.gov/naturalgas/monthly/, the 

Natural Gas Annual, http:// 

www.eia.gov/naturalgas/annual/, and 

others. 

II. Discussion 

EIA will terminate its natural gas 

wellhead price series in December 2012 

in an effort to reduce data quality and 

conceptual issues associated with the 

series. The data quality issues 

associated with the wellhead price 

series are closely related to the data
