POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND

DISPOSAL OF RECORDS: 

FOIA and Privacy Act request records 

are maintained electronically in 

FOIAXpress according to the National 

Archives and Records Administration’s 

General Records Schedule 4.2. Records 

are destroyed at the end of their 

retention period. 

ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL

SAFEGUARDS: 

FOIAXpress is protected by security 

protocols, which include controlled 

access, passwords, and other security 

features. Paper documents are secured 

in a locked office. The Commission 

limits access to FOIAXpress by putting 

users into predefined user roles with 

specific permissions for each role that 

dictate what abilities each user has on 

the system. Once a user is logged into 

the system, the software records when 

each visit occurred and logs every page 

and action performed. Only authorized 

staff have permission to access the 

system. Once a user has been assigned 

a role that allows access, then the 

individual can access the system, as 

needed.

Educational Laboratory (REL) Southwest 

Write to Succeed Evaluation. 

OMB Control Number: 1850–NEW. 

Type of Review: A new ICR.

Total Estimated Number of Annual

Abstract: The current authorization 

for the Regional Educational 

Laboratories (REL) program is under the 

Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002, 

Part D, Section 174, (20 U.S.C. 9564), 

administered by the Department of 

Education, Institute of Education 

Sciences (IES), National Center for 

Education Evaluation and Regional 

Assistance (NCEE). The central mission 

and primary function of the RELs is to 

support applied research and provide 

technical assistance to state and local 

education agencies within their region 

(ESRA, Part D, section 174[f]). The REL 

program’s goal is to partner with 

educators and policymakers to conduct 

work that is change-oriented and 

supports meaningful local, regional, or 

state decisions about education policies, 

programs, and practices to improve 

outcomes for students. 

Supporting equitable educational 

opportunities and achievement for 

English learner students in New Mexico 

is a high priority for the New Mexico 

Public Education Department (NMPED, 

n.d., 2021). In light of analysis showing 

English learner students in the state 

have lower rates of English language arts 

(ELA) proficiency (Arellano et al., 2018), 

plus legal rulings in the state that 

English learner students’ rights to a 

sufficient public education have been 

violated (NMPED, 2022a), NMPED 

created a strategic plan that includes 

supporting the whole child through 

literacy instruction that is culturally and 

linguistically responsive (NMPED, 

2022b). Improving English learner 

students’ English proficiency and the 

literacy skills of all students is a top 

priority of NMPED and the district and 

regional partners of REL Southwest. To 

address this problem, REL Southwest is 

implementing, refining, and building 

evidence for the Write to Succeed 

professional learning program. The core 

focus of the Write to Succeed program 

is scaffolded writing instruction that can 

support all students but with embedded 

opportunities to meet the language 

needs to English learner students. Prior 

to this study, the program will be 

further enhanced with supports for 

teacher collaboration and culturally and 

linguistically relevant instructional 

routines, as prior work with New

Mexico partners has indicated these are 

two elements in need of further support. 

This study is designed to measure the 

efficacy and implementation of the 

Write to Succeed. The evaluation team 

plans to conduct an independent 

evaluation using a school-level, cluster 

randomized control trial design to 

assess the program’s impact on teachers’ 

practices and beliefs and students’ 

language and literacy outcomes. The 

evaluation will also assess the 

implementation of the program and how 

it may be effectively scaled. The 

evaluation will take place in 40 schools 

across an estimated 10 districts in New 

Mexico and will focus on teachers and 

students in Grade 4–8. The evaluation 

will produce a report and presentations 

to study participants, practitioners, 

policymakers, and researchers, and 

infographics and blog posts for a wider 

audience of educators and 

policymakers. These will be designed to 

inform district and school leaders and 

teachers about scaffolded writing 

practices that could be beneficial for 

English learner students and all 

students.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Notice for Request for Information on 

Progression to Net-Zero Emission 

Propulsion Technologies for the Rail 

Sector; Reopening of Public Comment 

Period 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Request for information; 

reopening of public comment period. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Energy (DOE) Office of Energy 

Efficiency and Renewable Energy 

(EERE) published a request for 

information (RFI) on November 27, 

2023, inviting interested parties to 

provide input regarding the state of 

technology on the progression to netzero emission propulsion technologies 

for the rail industry. DOE requested 

public comments by January 12, 2023. 

DOE received requests for an extension 

of the public comment period. DOE 

reviewed the requests and has 

determined it is necessary and 

appropriate to reopen the comment 

period to allow comments to be 

submitted until February 12, 2024. 

DATES: The comment period for the RFI 

published on November 27, 2023 (88 FR 

82870), which closed on January 12, 

2024, is reopened. Responses to this RFI 

must be received no later than February 

12, 2024. 

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are to 

submit comments electronically to 

GreenRail@ee.doe.gov. Include ‘‘State of 

the Rail Industry’’ in the subject line of 

the email. Only electronic responses 

will be accepted. The complete RFI 

document is located at https://eereexchange.energy.gov/ 

Default.aspx#FoaIdf0ca0a9f-6e0e-4175- 

b20a-1bdbb682d705. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Questions may be addressed to Ben 

Simon at GreenRail@ee.doe.gov or 240– 

562–1591. Further instruction can be 

found in the RFI document posted on 

EERE Exchange. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. 

National Blueprint for Transportation 

Decarbonization set the goal to achieve 

net-zero carbon emissions in the 

transportation sector—including rail by 

2050. This transformation to net-zero 

emission technologies requires 

coordination among all aspects of the 

rail supply chain, including feedstock 

supply, alternative fuel production, 

locomotive engine manufacturers, safety 

implementation, customer demand, and 

government regulation. To develop a 

national strategy to decarbonize the rail 

sector, two critical questions must be 

addressed: 

1—Which alternative rail propulsion 

technologies are most promising? 

2—What is the timeline for the rail 

sector to transition to net-zero emission 

technologies? 

The purpose of this RFI is to 

understand what is driving the rail 

sector towards adopting alternative 

propulsion technologies, which 

technologies seem most promising, and 

what are the key barriers to achieving 

the transition to net-zero emissions by 

2050. 

Confidential Business Information: 

Pursuant to 10 CFR 1004.11, any person 

submitting information that he or she

and one copy of the document marked 

‘‘non-confidential’’ with the information 

believed to be confidential deleted. 

Submit these documents via email. DOE 

will make its own determination about 

the confidential status of the 

information and treat it according to its 

determination.
