Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 232 / Tuesday, December 5, 2023 / Notices 84309 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. 

Number of Respondents: 3,513. 

Annual Responses: 454,184. 

Annual Burden Hours: 47,659. 

Reporting Frequency: On Occasion. 

Needs and Uses: DoD has 

consolidated the information collection 

requirements for reporting Governmentfurnished property into a single clause 

at DFARS 252.245–70XX, Management 

and Reporting of Government Property. 

The clause implements an electronic 

process for the collection of required 

information for effective management 

and oversight of Government property. 

The consolidated clause does not 

impose any new information collection 

requirements; rather, it consolidates 

existing requirements in one location. 

As a result of the consolidation of 

Government-furnished property 

reporting requirements under DFARS 

252.245–70XX, two associated OMB 

Control Numbers will be discontinued, 

as the reporting requirements are now 

included in this revision for OMB 

Control Number 0704–0246. The OMB 

Control Numbers to be discontinued are 

0704–0398, DFARS Part 211, Describing 

Agency Needs and related clause at 

252.211; and 0704–0557, DFARS Part 

245, Use of the Government Property 

Clause for Repair of Governmentfurnished Property (GFP). 

The revised information collection 

includes the following: 

• DFARS clause 252.245–70XX, 

paragraph (b)(1), streamlines reporting 

of GFP requirements under the GFP 

module of the Procurement Integrated 

Enterprise Environment (PIEE) 

eBusiness platform. The paper form DD 

Form 1348–1A, Issue Release/Receipt 

Document, used when authorized by the 

plant clearance officer and outside the 

continental United States (OCONUS) for 

turn-ins to the Defense Logistics Agency 

disposal activities, is no longer 

necessary; the electronic equivalent data 

requirements are generated through the 

GFP Module of the PIEE. 

• DFARS clause 252.245–70XX, 

paragraph (k), provides procedures for 

disposal of scrap. The DD Form 1639, 

Scrap Warranty, is completed by 

individuals or firms that purchase 

Government property for its material 

content from a Government contractor. 

The DD Form 1639, addressed in 

252.245–70XX, paragraph (k)(2), is used 

for the sole purpose of having the 

purchasers warrant that the property 

they have purchased will be used only 

as scrap. 

• DFARS 252.245–70XX, paragraph 

(l), provides procedures for sale of 

surplus contractor inventory. 

• DFARS clause 252.245–7003, 

Contractor Property Management 

System Administration. This clause 

addresses the requirement for certain 

contractors to respond in writing to an 

initial or final determination from the 

administrative contracting officer that 

identifies deficiencies in the 

contractor’s property management 

system. This clause is not part of the 

252.245–70XX consolidation; however 

it continues to be covered under the 

OMB Control Number for this 

information collection. 

DoD uses this information for 

management and oversight of 

Government-furnished property. DFARS 

clause 252.245–70XX strengthens the 

accountability and end-to-end 

traceability of Government property 

within DoD.

Title of Collection: School Pulse Panel 

2024–25 Preliminary Field Activities. 

OMB Control Number: 1850–0969. 

Type of Review: A revision of a 

currently approved ICR. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 6,339. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 2,551. 

Abstract: The School Pulse Panel 

(SPP) is a data collection originally 

designed to collect repeated voluntary 

responses from a nationally 

representative sample of public schools 

to better understand how schools, 

students, and educators are responding 

to the ongoing stressors of the 

coronavirus pandemic. The School 

Pulse Panel is conducted by the 

National Center for Education Statistics 

(NCES), part of the Institute of 

Education Sciences (IES), within the 

United States Department of Education. 

Due to the immediate need to collect 

information from schools during the 

pandemic to satisfy the requirement of 

Executive Order 14000, an emergency 

clearance was issued to develop and 

field the first several monthly 

collections of the SPP in 2021 and a full 

review of the SPP data collection was 

performed under the traditional 

clearance review process in 2022 

(OMB# 1850–0969). SPP’s innovative 

design and timely dissemination of 

findings have been used and cited 

frequently among Department of 

Education senior leadership, the White 

House Domestic Policy Counsel, the 

USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service, the 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention, Congressional deliberations, 

and the media. The ongoing interest by 

stakeholders has resulted in dedicated 

funding to continue the SPP as an 

ongoing, quick-turnaround data 

collection vehicle. 

For the 2024–25 school year, the 

survey may ask school staff about a 

wide range of topics, including but not 

limited to instructional mode offered; 

enrollment counts of subgroups of 

students for various subject interests; 

strategies to address learning recovery; 

safe and healthy school mitigation 

strategies; mental health services; use of 

technology; information on staffing, 

nutrition services, absenteeism, usage of 

federal funds, facilities, and overall 

principal experiences. It is planned that 

content will be rotated in and out 

monthly. This package includes 

preliminary activities, including a 

generic special district application and 

communication materials for district 

and school recruitment, that will be 

conducted to help with recruitment 

efforts for the 2024–25 sample. 

Roughly 8,000 public elementary, 

middle, high, and combined-grade 

schools will be randomly selected to 

participate in a panel. The goal will be 

national representation from 1,000 

responding schools in order to report 

out national estimates. School staff will 

be asked to provide requested data 

monthly during the 2024–25 school 

year. This approach provides the ability 

to collect detailed information on 

various topics while also assessing 

changes over time for items that are 

repeated from month to month. Given 

the high demand for data collection 

during this time, the content of the 

survey will change monthly. 

This request is to conduct the SPP 

2024–25 preliminary activities, 

including contacting and obtaining 

research approvals from public school 

districts with an established research 

approval process (‘‘special contact 

districts’’), where applicable, notifying 

sampled schools of their selection for 

the survey and inviting them to 

complete short Screener Surveys to 

establish a point of contact at their 

school. Additional materials may be 

added to this package after the 60-day 

public comment period is complete, in
